We loved the lodge. The accomodation was comfortable and warm and we had everything we needed. The breakfast and dinners were exceptional and there was a nice variety of dishes to choose from.

We were disappointed that the Lodge didn't offer transport to and back from the Game Reserve. The rate for a game drive was steep, considering we still had to get ourselves to the Park.

Rebecca and Themba really made the weekend memorable. Bedrooms were comfortable and food was good

The coffee was cold. The light in the alcove for the family room, was a bit dim
