Relaxing. Beautiful. Euphoric. It was such a beautiful area and a perfect place to unwind and just take in the joys of the outdoors whether you want to just sunbathe or take a beautiful walk! My partner and I enjoyed it so much and will definitely return for an even longer stay!

Hi Nolubabalo, bless you thank you kindly for your wonderful review, it is greatly appreciated! Yourself and your friend were lovely guests, it was only a shame your visit had to be so quick, but I am glad you at least managed to come for a short while. We hope to see you and more of your friends in the future! And your pics were gorgeous! thank you

Hallo Nolubabalo, seën jou vriendelik dankie vir jou wonderlike resensie, dit word opreg waardeer! Jyself en jou vriendin was lieflike gaste, dit was net jammer jou kuier moes so vinnig wees, maar ek is bly jy het darem dit reggekry om vir 'n kort rukkie te kom. Ons hoop om jou en meer van jou vriende in die toekoms te sien! En jou foto's was pragtig! Dankie

It was a very comfortable "glamping tent" and the river is nice and close for fishing and picnicking. Loyd, Vicki and Chet were the nicest people and are always available for any help. The kitchen and bathrooms as well as the braai areas were incredibly clean and well kept!

Dit was 'n baie gerieflike "glamping tent" en die rivier is lekker naby vir visvang en piekniek hou. Loyd, Vicki en Chet was die mees vriendelikste mense en is altyd beskikbaar vir enige hulp. Die kombuis en badkamers asook die braai-areas was ontsaglik skoon en goed behou!

Wonderful, but midges & mosquitoes a real problem. Really lovely accommodation and wonderful guests. Unfortunately, the mosquitoes and midges were a terrible problem and would prove the only reason for not referring or returning to an otherwise gem of a spot!

Hi Casey, thanks so much for your feedback. These mosquitoes and midges were definitely out when you were here, unfortunately, and I understand they were annoying. They are cyclical, and not consistent, but due to our recent flooding, they do appear at times to be worse than last year. I am sure as the water settles even more, they should calm down. We have just recently added mosquito mesh to the windows in the Aframe, plus mosquito nets for the beds. We always make sure there are a few options of mosquito repellent available in the Aframe cabin and on the glampdeck, and also do request for guests to bring their mosquito repellent of choice, and always advise guests to use the mosquito repellent straight away. We are always looking for new solutions, though. Warm regards, Taryn

Hallo Casey, baie dankie vir jou terugvoer. Hierdie muskiete en muggies was beslis uit toe jy hier was, ongelukkig, en ek verstaan hulle was irriterend. Hulle is siklies en nie konsekwent nie, maar as gevolg van ons onlangse oorstromings, lyk dit wel of dit soms erger is as verlede jaar. Ek is seker soos die water nog meer sak, hulle moet kalmeer. Ons het onlangs muskietmaas by die vensters in die Aframe gevoeg, plus muskietnette vir die beddens. Ons maak altyd seker dat daar 'n paar opsies van muskietafweermiddel beskikbaar is in die Aframe-kajuit en op die glampdek, en versoek ook gaste om hul muskietafweermiddel van keuse saam te bring, en raai gaste altyd aan om dadelik die muskietafweermiddel te gebruik. Ons is egter altyd op soek na nuwe oplossings. Hartlike groete, Taryn
