Great for adults and kids. The house is right on the Crocodile River. We had a very happy time. So many animals came to visit us at the house: kudu, impala, warthogs, bushbuck, and zebra. There's a pod of hippos in the river. On day one, there were 20 elephants in the river. The kids loved the swimming pool and feeding the game. Air-conditioned bedrooms were wonderful. We'll be back.

We would love to welcome you back. It's a privilege to be able to share our African paradise with guests who appreciate our wildlife and the "bush ambiance". Buster's River Lodge is not a modern, state-of-the-art facility - but it does offer a true African Bush experience. Thank you for respecting our home, your good communication and co-operation.

The heat was unbearable during December and advertisement is misleading due to air conditioners not as advertised. Our requirement was air conditioner rooms. There are only 4 bedrooms and not 6 as advertised. No king size beds, queen beds and single beds available. Only 2 rooms have air conditioners and not as advertised air conditioning in rooms. The bed on the wooden deck and in the tree house cannot be used as the bugs are very active in the area. We were a group of 12 people and had to rotate to the two air conditioned rooms to get some sleep. When we arrived, all the beds did not have linen on them and the unit was not clean. Will not use Buster's River Lodge again at all.

I responded to you by email, on the Lekkeslaap website and telephonically, prior to their arrival. I clearly indicated that only 2 of the bedrooms had air-conditioning and that 2 of the beds were outside on the balcony and not inside the house. They enquired whether they could bring their own fans and I said that would be advisable. Many guests love to experience the bush life and sounds of the wildlife and love the outside beds. The Kruger Park in peak season can be extremely hot. All the relevant information and concerns were clarified in the emails, telephone conversations and on the Lekkeslaap messages, prior to the guest's arrival. Kind regards, Carol
