Beautiful campsite with lots of trees providing shade. Each site has its own cover with water and power. Prices are as previously mentioned
Report Check-InNice place with grassy shady campsites, braai, power and water on the site. WIFI is a bit on and off, sometimes available at the campsites. Nice and clean very hot showers. Prices have increased, 200 pppn + 10 pppn tax. A bit expensive but worth it after days in the CKGR.
Report Check-InWe spent 2 nights in the camping of this « 3 star » lodge. Very DISAPPOINTING !
Camping: is located close to the gate, along the driveway to the reception/bar/restaurant area and close to the parking. This means you have a lot of noise from people speaking loud on the parking, any vehicle going in and out and gate opening system. Very loud until 22:30 and from 5:50 am and even during night.
Owners are not customer oriented for campers.
There were NO cleaning activities on the campsite (bins) and in the ablutions blocks during our whole stay.
Small dirty swimming pool: water was not clear, looked like milk, we could not see 5cm deep, the bottom was viscous and the filtering system was not on.
Payment: cash if you want to avoid an extra charge of 4% if payment by card. Received no receipt.
Definitely not what you would expect from a 3 star lodge ! We will NEVER come back.
Only positive point: the few contacts we had with the staff were very friendly.
Sehr gepflegte und ordentliche Anlage mit drei netten Hunden. Super netter Empfang und Service! Sehr empfehlenswert!
