The mountain lodge on Kamenitovac was opened in 1951. It was built on the ridge of a hill above the village of Maglenča on the edge of the Mačjak forest. It is a one-story building with a brick ground floor, covered with Drava coulis on the outside, and the floor is made of logs. A wooden terrace is attached to the first floor. On the ground floor there are two dining rooms that can accommodate 100 people and a kitchen, and on the first floor there are 6 double rooms and a loft with a shared bed (a total of 40 mattresses covered with sheets with pillows and blankets). The home is electrified, has water supply and central heating. It is always open and well stocked, so it is also suitable for annual vacations.
