Guest Reviews

• Ayesha (8/5): -
• BURTON (2/5): Not what we expected from the photos. We left early. - The outlook from the deck was nice. The hot tub was good. The sleeping area is in the apex of an A-frame cottage at the top of near-vertical, narrow stairs. You have to crawl into the bed and lie just under the roof. There is absolutely no comfortable furniture in the lounge area. No place to sit and read. Cheap plastic chairs and table for eating. No oven. If it rains, you are trapped.
• Leon (10/5): -
• Nozuko (8/5): -
• Bev (8/5): - The hot tub
• cajo17 (10/5): -
• Asisipho (1/5): Didn’t even spend a night, we left. The owner is rude - I didn’t like anything. This is a horrible and dirty place. The chalets were filthy. The bedding was not clean and smelled badly. The owner, Tim was so rude, he was even so drunk. When I was giving back his keys, his dog tried to attack me and he didn’t even stop the dog, my brother came to my rescue. There was also a strong odour in the chalet. Unprofessional owner. Also the stairs to what they call a bedroom are very steep, definitely a health hazard. Worst place ever. Unprofessional drunk owner
• Ronnie (9/5): Magical -
• Iain (9/5): -
• langfeld (8/5): -
• Buntu (8/5): Peaceful ,comfortable, and an amazing reset getaway for a couple or little family. A worthy trip - Tree Haven is absolutely amazing. You get to experience the tranquility of nature ,while getting a a comfortable cabin living experience. It’s exactly what one needs to get away from the busyness of the city Nothing
• Abulele (9/5): - The location was nice and quiet, the chalets give you the feeling of home away from home... Being there was just peaceful. We definitely enjoyed staying there. The Wi-Fi connection was bad when your inside the chalet, it was only better when you on the front porch or the parking space.
• Paul (3/5): A pigsty in Hogsback - The Hogsback experience Place was dirty. The patio door was not cleaned in months The patio deck was filthy.There was no mop and broom available. The stairs to the bedroom area very steep and not suitable for over 45 year old.No garbage removal Fridge is only a bar fridge.Not worth the money I paid. Much better accomodation available for less. Overpriced.The parking area was muddy and no sufficient gravel was placed.The braai was filthy and rusted.

• Mark (9/5): Superb - A delightful A-frame retreat, perfect for a quick and peaceful escape. There’s nothing quite like a cozy fire to warm up a chilly winter evening.
• Vaneece (10/5): Exceptional - The location is great, the cottage we stayed in was absolutely breathtaking and the staff/owner/manager was so accommodating and kind. I'd definitely go back.
• Lorraine (10/5): Cozy Stay at Maple Cabin, Treehaven Retreat - We had a fabulous stay in the Maple Cabin at Treehaven Retreat. The Cabin was cozy and perfect for a romantic couples getaway! Even though it was freezing outside, we were warm and snug inside at night with the indoor fireplace going and comfy bed upstairs. Awesome fire-heated hot tub on the deck and situated in a beautiful place. Loved that there was no TV inside, and we got to enjoy each other's company. Great wifi signal at the cabin and all the basic amenities you need for a lovely stay, including a hot shower! Thank you for a wonderful stay. 🙏🏻
• Manziya (10/5): Brilliant place for escape from pressures. - Enjoyed the secluded place for me and my lady.
• Paige (10/5): Exceptional -
• Soga (10/5): A Proper Retreat - I liked the ambience, tranquility and the location. We didn't have hot water on the last day.
• Phumela (10/5): I’m definitely coming back ! - Everything was 10/10 , great host , the cabin had everything you need for a comfortable stay . I recommended the place to 3 people within the first 15 minutes of being there. Highly recommend .
• Zukhanye (10/5): Home away from home. - The accomodation is beautiful with great views. Clean and neat. Equipped with essentials suitable for a self-catering weekend stay. The facility manager RIchard was also amazing showed us all we needed to know on arrival and was helpful whenever we needed something. The parking at our accommodation was quite steep making it a bit of a mission when we have to go out, making turns and all. But we managed.
• Thandokazi (8/5): Very good -
• Klinkradt (8/5): Very good -
• Girland (9/5): A peaceful and cozy retreat in nature, made memorable by warm hospitality and thoughtful touches. - I stayed at Treehaven Retreat from in April 2025 and had a truly rejuvenating solo getaway. What stood out most was the abundance of firewood that kept the place warm and welcoming, adding to the already cozy charm of the space. The host, Richard, was incredibly hospitable and made the experience feel personal and cared for. If I had one caution, it would be the steep stairs to the loft bed—they were quite tricky to navigate, especially when tired. Something to be aware of, particularly for those with mobility concerns. Overall, I would definitely recommend Treehaven Retreat to nature lovers, solo travelers, and couples looking for a serene, off-the-grid experience. It’s a perfect spot to breathe deeply and slow down.
• Harry (9/5): Lovely getaway from the city in a quiet woodland setting with a hot tub - Very peacefull and quiet getaway, especially with the hot tub as a feature
• Reltin (10/5): My wife and I loved the tranquility, romantic feel and coziness - Neat, Clean, Fresh Bedding and Modern. Loved the Fire place inside. Warms up the place so nice. Loved the Privacy.

• Tandile (10/5): Great place - The place was beautiful, exactly like the photos. nothing.
• Gideon (3/5): Got potential but have to sort out the staircase and geyser problems - Remote location in Hogsback in newly built cottages. The geyser failed every day because of a lack of pressure. The staircase is the most unpractical I ever experienced, it is too small and the angle completely wrong to get to the bedroom upstairs.
• Peter (10/5): Exceptional -

• Bhelekazi (9/5): Hogsback trails❤️ 👣 - Treehaven Retreat is clean and very comfortable. Their rainshower is refreshing after a long day at Hogsback long walking trails. The beds are comfortable ,we had peaceful sleep. The gas stove cooks very fast💯❤️.This is a place to reconnect with nature. The mountains and greenery are refreshing. One of the nights was cold so we used the fireplace, very warm and we enjoyed complimentary cookies by Treehaven Retreat. I booked January because I wanted to just rest and recover after the festive season. We were able to engage in different activities thanks to our host :Tim and Natalie,we appreciate you. We went to 39step waterfall (madonna and child falls) which is mentally and physically challenging . We enjoyed horseriding, archery and took long walks . The people were quite friendly..... The wifi or network reception was a problem during our stay . The roads of Hogsback 🤐. If possible drive a bigger car, I struggled with my Polo Hatchback, mainly because I'm not used to driving on gravel road and because of the rain,it was very slippery.
• Mona-lisa (10/5): Exceptional -
• Andiswa (10/5): Exceptional - The cottage was nice and cosy for with great views and amenities for a mountain gateaway for two. Tim (the host) was super friendly and helpful whenever we called on him.
