When you visit Khao Sok or Cheow Lan Lake, the thing to do is stay in one of these raft houses. You’ll take a long tail boat from the dam area to the raft house, which depending on the time of year, you may get rained on. Praiwan Raft house is great because it’s a more authentic experience and is more tucked away in the park, right near where many of the wildlife tours are, so there are animals right next to you. Some people saw a male elephant from their raft house while we were there, and we saw a whole troop of langer monkeys. The staff at praiwan are great, and the accommodations are very clean. However, do note that this is a more rustic place, and there is no power in the individual rooms until evening, at which point there is a fan but no AC. Bathrooms are present in the rooms. My wife and I had a great experience there just hanging out and being in nature. You can swim in the lake or take one of their kayaks out. I would recommend booking directly through Praiwan (or expedia/booking) not one of the tour operators, as the tour programming is included in your hotel stay. We booked through Expedia and paid a lot less than if we booked through a tour operator and still got a guide nature walk, boat tours, etc just for being guests at the hotel. Definitely recommend this place
