Peaceful and so beautiful.
We were moving from Nelspruit Strand. Spent a night there. Was really so peaceful there and beautiful sunset. Children thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Will definitely go back with a group of friends and family for a hunting weekend.

Die fasiliteit word nie behoorlik instandgehou nie en het agteruit gegaan vanaf 'n vorige besoek.

The facility is not properly maintained and has deteriorated since a previous visit.
We had previously visited the Vetkuil hunters huts as it is a peaceful Karoo environment. However, this time the facilities were dusty, fridges did not work properly and had an unpleasant smell. The water pipes to the cabins are in disrepair and are held together with pieces of inner tube. Shortly after we arrived there, the water pipe outside the water tank burst. I tried to call the owner and his wife on the numbers we had spoken to earlier in the day. The cell phones rang, but there was no answer and no one called back either. I repaired the pipe with a piece of inner tube and wire I found in the field so we have water in our unit. This was a waste of precious time that I would have spent walking in the field. When I was able to go for a walk through the field just before dark, there were drink bottles and cans on which targets had been shot in the field. The gas geyser in our unit also didn't work and cold showers were our foreland. This was an extremely disappointing stay.

Very nice, close to nature as we like it.
Those are not luxurious but they are the way we like them. Hot water, fireplace and a warm clean bed is all we need.

Everything we needed.
Very peaceful in nature. We were looking for a place to stay that was pet friendly. We have 2 large dogs who holiday together and Vetkuil was absolutely ideal. The unit has everything you need for an overnight stay and everything was clean and tidy.

Dankie vir u terugvoer, ons kry baie besoekers jaarliks, manlik, vroulik, asook met kinders, mense geniet die rustigheid van plaaslewe. Ons het op geen stadium krag geadverteer nie, ons beskrywing noem sonkrag en gas stoof en yskas. Weereens regtig jammer u het nie die"off the grid"" plaas akkommodasie geniet nie.

Shocking that people ask money to stay as such a place.
The room is so small for 6 people. The water didn't work. There is no electricity. Bedbugs. Because of the water problem the toilet didn't flush. It was the most horrible place I've ever stayed.

As jy moeg gereis is, en lekker nagrus wil he, is hierdie verblyf nie aan te beveel nie.

If you are tired from travelling, and want a good night's rest, this accommodation is not recommended.
Very disappointed. After many hours on the road, you don't feel like trying to get a generator running to have hot water for a shower. The cockroaches are taking over the place, it was in the beds.

It's no farm experience.
Pipe from tank that supplies water disconnects as soon as the pump starts to take a shower. No provision made for non smokers. Do not give fire lighters. Couldn't make any coffee therefore.

Quiet surroundings, but very basic accommodation.
The room wasn't particularly tidy and the amenities are sparse, but that probably doesn't bother the typical hunter. What does count in Vetkuil's favor is the incredibly peaceful environment and nature. The longer we were there the better it got. One sees the springbok grazing in the distance from the porch. The owner started the "donkey" for us late in the afternoon so that we could have hot water. In the end it was an interesting experience, but next time I will probably avoid a hunting camp.

It was a great farm experience! Would do it again anytime. Thank you very much.
It is definitely worth driving the approximately 23 km out of town: away from city noise. One does not know about other people, only about sheep, springboks and owls that call early in the morning. What an experience!
