A relaxing and scenic getaway. We enjoyed a lovely weekend at Goosebay Canyon. The location is beautiful, set along the shores of the Vaal River. The kids enjoyed the pool and we relaxed on deck chairs which overlook the river. The braai and lapa area was comfortably located right by the pool and the hosts made sure we were looked after! This venue is highly recommended and we will definitely be back again!

Absoluut fantasties, 2 dae het soos 2 weke se rus gevoel. Pragtig, skoon en uitsig asemrowend. Gasvrou gaaf en behulpsaam. Angie en Thulie, julle is sterre. Gaan vir seker weer.

Absolutely beautiful. What an amazing host Gail was, it was paradise on the Vaal.

Not good for a family with children. * The only entertainment we found was fishing and a pool table. Boating was a big disturbance to fishing. The pool table was not accessible because the area was closing after breakfast. We were in the dark during load-shedding. A family with loud music, dancing, and noise - no one from the administration controlled them, and we did not appreciate it. We suffered without a kitchen facility to make our lunch and supper. Not suitable or recommended to stay for more than a day due to a lack of self-catering or a full-time kitchen.

Peaceful and relaxing. Room was a bit old fashioned. Would have liked to have a tv in the room. Pool wad green due to loadshedding. Toilet light did not work. The place is great if you just want to laze around and do nothing else. It's a great place if you like fishing. Staff was very welcoming and pleasant. Beautiful views of the river. There was not much else to do.

Ons was gemaklik en het baie tuis gevoel. Pragtige uitsig van al die kamers. Kamers is ruim en gemaklik.

It was OK. The place is nice and the service is awesome. The rooms just need to be upgraded and brought back to life.

Disappointing. Photos can be deceiving! Upon arrival, Vaalbank looks quite deserted and derelict. I can see this "resort" used to shine, in the '90s. But it's definitely lost its luster. If you're looking for an overnight bed, this will do. Basics like a fridge are nowhere to be seen. There are braai facilities, but no kitchenware to use for a braai. Angie was helpful, but I think she's also just trying to make the best of what she has. Included in the price was a breakfast, as we needed to leave early, Angie offered to do a breakfast box. First morning, it was tuna toasties, an apple, banana and an almost out-of-date Tropica. The next morning she sounded like it was a bother to prepare something for us, and it showed. Burnt ham, cheese and soggy tomato toasties. No bacon to be seen anywhere. Again, she tried. Staff was friendly. But I will definitely not go there again. For the amount we paid, it's not worth the river view.

Daar was net 2 paartjies op die perseel maar hulle boek ons reg langs mekaar. Amper bo-op mekaar. Geen privaatheid nie. Een braai wat gedeel moet word. Daar is 'n aircon in die plek maar geen "klein yskas nie". 'n Mens moet 'n yskas deel maar die deure is gesluit. Bad was vuil.

The stay was worth it. I will surely visit again in the summer. Excellent river views from the room, very beautiful and tranquil place to visit. Very relaxing. The breakfast was very nice including the oxtail potjie was delicious. The staff were very helpful and friendly and made us feel at home.
