Guest Reviews
- Labuschagne (10/5): We had a lovely family gathering there and it was very well equipped, spacious and comfortable. - House was spacious, well equiped and had a stunning view.
- Marisca (9/5): Beautiful and tranquil stay, greatly recommended! - The river being close to the accommodation. Fulle equipped kitchen. Beautiful interior. Peace and tranquility. Even though ambient, on of the lights in the upper room was not working. A massive amount of wasps that need to be dealt with.
- Colin (9/5): -
- Danie (9/5): Secluded and had a lovely time with family over christmas. - Good for family get together. Great deck and braai facilities. Comfortable stay Too many flies.
All top steps in and outside of the house were loose and potentially dangerous. Needs attention
Lights around outside braai was not enough with bulbs blown
Oven inefficient
- MOGOMOTSI (10/5): -
- de Beer (9/5): Kollegerus at Schoemanshof review - The venue is tucked away in the bush next to the Vaal river, away from everyday noise and still equipped with everything you need. The surroundings allow you to switch off and reset your mind and body.
- Bianca (1/5): - The location The water was not running and no hot water
- Fourie (9/5): Lovely, quiet break-away destination surrounded by nature. - The privacy - no other guests in sight. NA

- Christa (9/5): Trap vanaf dek na sitkamer, nie geskik vir bejaardes met rug, knie of heupprobleme nie -
- Vincent (9/5): My stay was wonderful - The bath water was cold, and the network was weak
- Aucamp (9/5): Tranquil and beautiful - Absolute tranquility, exactly what we needed. The unit was nice and private and the surroundings was beautiful!
- Belinda (9/5): A very quiet retreat - to get away from the noisy city - with the luxuries - The little hideaway was perfect. Everything one wants for a couples breakaway. Did not see another soul for the whole weekend. The AC was a life saver during the 36 deg days
There is a shower mentioned on the list - but it’s “across the road “
Which in itself turned out to be romantic As others have mentioned - lots off flying insects at night - we were not able to sit outside at night-
- Marie-louise (9/5): Superb -
- Tersia (8/5): A gem! Comfy and beautiful surroundings. We had everything we needed in this self-catering unit. - Beautiful surroundings and sweet sounds of nature. Loved to here the water in the evening while preparing supper at the lapa. The stars were showing off again and the perfect spot for a quick recharge breakaway weekend from the hustle and bustle of the city! Great to experience and stay. Hesmé the host was so friendly and helpful with every request. We’ll be sure to visit again! A lot of insects, but understandable seeing that it’s close to the water.
- Marlein (10/5): Excellent stay! We will be back! - Everything. The place is just amazing 😍 Nothing
- Mrs (10/5): Exceptional - The place is so very nice & peaceful. The host doesn't even bother you at all. I would love to visit the place once more
- Alett (10/5): Unforgettable, they will definitely see us again. - It's one of those places that makes you feel like you've come home and can just relax and find your soul. The house has everything and more that is needed. The braai place is fantastic, and with the most beautiful river part of your view, you can't ask for anything better. That we could not stay longer.....
- Renier (9/5): Superb -
- Donald (10/5): The quaint fisherman cottage was placed in a picturesque setting. Had all I needed and was spotless -
- Anaya (10/5): Exceptional -
- Elize (9/5): Superb -
- Charlise (10/5): Lovely and cozy cottage, perfect for a winter getaway! - The cottage was lovely, really cozy, and well-equipped. The bush around us was peaceful and quiet and we felt like we were the only people there. We loved the fireplace, the outdoor braai area, and being so close to the river. It was the perfect weekend getaway! We went with a low car and the gravel road up to the house was a bit of a challenge due to large bumps that I assume are for rainwater, but it was not undoable. I should have double-checked before we went as she did warn me that it was a gravel road.
- Ferdie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Angi (8/5): A wonderful place of peace & quiet to restore the soul! - Unit was lovely, clean & inviting & had aircon which was a huge plus with the heat. Super wonderful braai/boma area with river view & outside bathroom.
Everything you could need for a weekend away, in the room, was provided.
Completely surrounded by natural bush/un spoilt nature. The evenings were solely filled with the sounds of crickets & frogs.
A place to let the sole completely rest. Odds & ends that were stated would be in the room where finished or not supplied. (Toiletries & Mosquito spray)
Hiking trail was not marked nor was a map provided for walks.
Path or walkway to fishing area needs some TLC.
Would have liked to be able to use the river in some sort of way, other than fishing. Especially during Summer.
- Nailana (6/5): Pleasant - I wish they could add a pool and play activities. The place is very quiet with no tv We had to ho book another place for activities
- Amora (10/5): Exceptional -
- Johan (10/5): Exceptional -
