Needs proper management. Needs proper management; a few things were not communicated properly. No cool drink stock.

Nice views from the campground. Good and affordable camping. Only concern is it seems you can now no longer do trail runs on the other side of the fence.

We had a very restful 4 days. Stay was fantastic. The only thing I found challenging is that the staff at the bar were not always around and we had to wait for a long time for them to come or go and find them. There was also no ice on sale on site. Food was superb.

Lovely, peaceful and relaxing. We really had a great stay, safe and quiet. A few things that may need attention: 1. Refrigerator in communal kitchen closest to our room does not work at all. 2. Chest freezer's hinge on the lid is broken, and guests do not close it properly. As a result, the freezer does not seal tightly. 3. Jacuzzi's gas was out and we could not use it.

Heerlik, rustig en ontspannend. Ons het regtig baie lekker gebly, veilig en rustig. Enkele dingetjies wat dalk aandag nodig het: 1. Yskas in gemeenskaplike kombuis naaste aan ons kamer werk glad nie. 2. Kisvrieskas se skarnier van die deksel is stukkend, en gaste maak dit nie mooi toe nie. Gevolglik seël die vrieskas nie dig nie. 3. Jacuzzi se gas was gedaan en ons kon dit nie gebruik nie.

Excellent weekend with beautiful views and good company and good service. We really enjoyed it, the view is excellent, facilities were comfortable and completely adequate for our group. The staff sorted out problems quickly, we really had a great time. Loved the setup. Would definitely recommend.

Uitstekende naweek met pragtige uitsig en goeie geselskap en goeie diens. Ons het dit vreeslik geniet, die uitsig is uitstekend, fasiliteite was gerieflik en heeltemal voldoende vir ons groep. Die personeel het probleme vinnig uitgesorteer, ons het regtig heerlik gekuier. Hou baie van die setup. Sal dit vir seker aanbeveel.

Pleasant stay! While a little more basic than the photographs suggest, it was a good stay. Unfortunately, the food menu was no longer applicable.
