Red Sands Country Lodge | Established Campground

March 28th, 2024 by caspari.saskia

Really nice lodge with campsites. 165 rand for 1 person for a night at the campsite with shared abolutions. Each campsite has own electricity, sink, and fireplace.

Overall a very clean, friendly, quiet place. There is a 5K and an 11K hiking trail on the property. Restaurant serves good food (and they don't skim on portion sizes). WiFi around reception/restaurant. Good phone reception (MTN).
Many animals walking around.
Campsites a bit close too each other.

Very nice campsite with great private abulsions. Extremely clean and well maintained. Staff were exceptional. Restaurant was lovely and surprisingly reasonably priced for delicious food. Definitely recommend

We spent 20 mins at the gate trying to buzz them via the intercom (as per instructions on the sign), but no response so we had to keep driving and find somewhere else.
There was also a phone number on the gate, but we had just arrived from Botswana and didn’t yet have a working SIM card.
I guess it’s best to book this campsite in advance so they know to expect you!

Great location but has issues. We had booked a private camp site but had heard the ablutions for the private sites had water problems. Checked with reception when we arrived and they confirmed that so we moved to a public site. What they failed to mention was the generator is right in front of the camp sites so the decibel noise and smell of diesel is awful. So disappointing visit. Hopefully they will fix soon. If you do book ask for a site closer to reception away from the generator!

Lovely, well established camp site with Restaraunt and wifi. Your own water and braai area and electricity. Lovely 5k walk up into the hills around the outside.
Nice ablution area and decent hot water. Very nice.

Well developed and well maintained site, in a secure, secluded area. 160pppn with shared ablutions, nicer sites with private ablutions available. Seems that a lot of people use this as a one night stop and leave early in the morning. Good restaurant and seating area, hiking and game trails. Nice place

Camping for a single was R170, but they reckoned I look like a pensioner so let me have it at R150🙂. Great facilities!

Lovely private camping with clean toilets and shower and private braai area. Good restaurant available. Can buy wood and braaipacks.

Paid also 150 for 1 person.

Nice set up with the Braai area, sink, water and power close by. All very very convenient.
Shared ablutions super clean. The showers are great!

Definitely a good deal ! Would stay here anytime again. Wish more campsites would provide such a comfortable and neat set up.

Great place to stay. We camped out and had the ablution block basically to ourselves. Very clean and well kept. Small pool with kids playing in it, reception has ice for sale, ~150 rand per person per night for camping. WiFi at the restaurant. There were springbok around the camp at night.

very nice place to stay near Kuruman. Many campsites each with own braai,washing up area, electricity and water. Most spots have no grass or shade. Nice place to stay over on your way to Capetown. We paid R300 for 2 people. They also have a few campsites with private ablutions.

Very nice camping spots, 270 2ppn (shared ablution block option)

As described, except we were checked in by a very unhappy lady. Site very dusty. Apparently vegan options are available in the restaurant to order.

I’ve stayed here a couple of times when passing through. Great rest stop, good bathrooms, I prefer the private ablutions option. Will stay here in the future. Nice restaurant!, although it was closed on my most recent visit.

Nothing to add to other comments, but price for private ablution is 180ppn now.

Nice place, professionally run. Good facilities. Sink and Braai at sites even without private ablutions. Nice showers.

Good camp site with power points.
Good price as well R120 per person.
Great restaurant and bar.

still a nice place. The price for camping with a shared bathroom (a really good one) is now ZAR 120pP.

September 8th, 2018 by hugmin42

We wanted to camp here, but it was fully booked. So best to phone ahead in the busy season (even in September) to make sure if they have space. We had to find a guest house after dark in Kuruman.

We took the private Site with own ablutions, which was nice and clean. Lots of power points, we like this place. 150 ZAR per person

We love this place. They also have on suite camping available and chalets. Restaurant and bar are also fantastic. Highly recommended.

Part of a larger facility with restaurant, bar, conference rooms and many chalets. Pvt camping spots have spotless ablution and Braai site and electricity. Not much privacy though and noise travels easily. Free wifi at reception terrace. Pool closed for renovations. R 300 for 2x pvt camping.

Very nice place. I stayed in camp 104 with private kitchen wash up area. Excellent wifi in reception. The only downfall is the first 1km of the sand rod at the entrance. I was on a scooter and found the sand way too deep to ride. I had to wait for somebody to lift my bike out and they had to push me for about 100mtrs . The rest itf the road was good gravel.

Was good

Spacious place on sand. No spaces marked, so a bit confusing. Some stands have private ablutions, but the shared ones are just fine. Bar and restaurant.

Cost:ZAR90
