A unique and fun experience. We had so much fun enjoying the stay on the river and the activities available. The check-in was easy and they kindly allowed the two dogs to come along. It is a beautiful area to explore but the N2 is close by so one is aware of that noise at times. But I would definitely recommend this as something to try. 2 nights were perfect for us to get the full day to experience the boat and river.

It was a nice experience. We enjoyed it very much. We only have 1 request. It is that commercial boats are not moored to the sides of the Maggie May. It spoils the view of the river.

Lekker ondervinding gewees. Ons het dit baie geniet. Ons het slegs 1 versoek. Dit is dat daar nie komersiële bote aan die kante van die Maggie May vas gemaak word nie. Dit spoil die view van die rivier.

Outside of teenage boys who like fishing and adventure, the location is great! Great experience! There was just no hot water to shower.

Buite tienerseuns wat hou van visvang en avontuur is die location great! Great ondervinding! Daar was net geen warm water om te stort nie.

Beautiful and different. Everything was neat and everything you need is there. Beautiful sunset and sunrise over the river. Nice bed, TV, chocolate on the bed. The toilet is just a bit uncomfortable/small. I would only change 2 things - the people driving up and down the river obviously make a lot of waves and then Maggie May chops against the wooden post. That's quite a hard blow. I would suggest that a car tire could be tied to the pole to dampen the blow. And then also just a new shower curtain, it's brown underneath. Thank you.

Pragtig en anders. Alles was netjies en alles is daar wat jy benodig. Mooi sonsondergang en sonsopkoms oor die rivier. Lekker bed, TV, sjokolade op die bed. Die toilet is net bietjie ongemaklik/klein. Ek sal net 2 dingetjies verander - die mense wat op- en afry op die rivier maak natuurlik baie branders en dan kap Maggie May teen die houtpaal. Dis nogal 'n harde slag. Ek sal voorstel dat 'n motorband teen die paal vasgemaak kan word om die hou te demper. En dan ook net 'n nuwe stortgordyn, dis bruin onder. Dankie.

Boat much smaller than in the photos. Dirty dishes in the cupboards. Toilets were only cleaned very late afternoon instead of 8:30 am as stipulated. Overall, not satisfied.

Interesting experience. Very good reception! Got bananas, chocolate and fruit juice on the boat! I would say one night is too short to stay there. One disappointment is that the boat is so well-anchored that it doesn't bob up and down like a boat should!

Interessante ervaring. Ons was baie goed ontvang! Piesangs, sjokolade en vrugtesap op boot gekry! Ek sou sê een aand is te min om daar te slaap. Een teleurstelling is dat die boot so vas geanker is dat hy nie kan ronddobber soos 'n boot moet nie!

We had such a good time. We would like to thank Karl and Kelly and all their staff for their kindness and help during our stay. We felt at home and really enjoyed our time on the boat.

Ons het so lekker gekuier. Ons wil dankie së vir Karl en Kelly en al hulle personeel vir hulle vriendelikheid en hulp gedurende ons verblyf. Ons het tuis gevoel en het ons tyd op die boot baie geniet.
