Relaxing. Wow—what an incredible weekend! My husband and I had the most wonderful stay. The Dam Huisie truly exceeded our expectations; it was thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing getaway. One of the biggest highlights for us was that it’s pet-friendly and fully fenced. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our furbabies were safe and secure. We even had to pop into town (just a quick 10-minute drive), and I felt completely at ease leaving the dogs behind for a short while. We stayed for three nights, which honestly felt far too short. Next time, we’ll definitely be booking a longer stay. I already miss the peaceful quiet and the beautiful dam view—such a special place to unwind. Highly recommended!

Really worth it. Dam Huisie was perfect for our little getaway after our wedding. Our dogs and children were safe, the place was fenced and they could run around freely. Our geyser did cause problems, but the owners were lightning fast to help and sort it out! Very friendly and really nice people! The hot tub was a really nice plus and we used it daily! Bedding was clean, the house was very clean and everything was really worth it!

Regtig sy moeite werd. Dam Huisie was perfek gewees vir ons klein wegbreek na ons troue. Ons honde kinders was veilig gewees, die plekkie was omhein en hulle kon vry rondhardloop. Ons geyser het wel probleme gegee, maar die eienaars was blitsvinnig om te help en dit uit te sorteer! Baie vriendelik en regtig aangename mense! Die warmbad was 'n baie lekker pluspunt en ons het hom daagliks gebruik! Beddegoed was skoon, huisie was mooi skoon gewees en alles was regtig die moeite werd!

The place is very neat, incredibly well appointed. We had a wonderful stay at the Dam Cottage. It is so peaceful and the hot tub was so nice to sit in and relax. The cottage is beautiful with everything (and more) you need. There is no need to bring wood, there is more than enough and their prices are good.

Die plekkie is baie netjies, ongelooflik goed ingerig. Ons het heerlik gebly by die Dam Huisie. Dit is so rustig en die hot tub was so lekker om in te sit en te ontspan. Die huisie is pragtig met alles (en meer) wat nodig is. Dit is glad nie nodig om hout saam te neem nie, daar is meer as genoeg en hulle pryse is goed.

Lovely little place with everything you need. We enjoyed it so much, there is an indoor and outdoor braai and a lovely hot tub. It also helps that they allow a dog - we don't know who enjoyed it more, her or us!

Lieflike plekkie met alles wat jy nodig het. Ons het dit so geniet, daar is 'n binne- en buitebraai en 'n heerlike warmbad. Dit help ook dat hulle 'n hondjie toelaat - ons weet nie wie dit meer geniet het nie, sy of ons!

Nice and peaceful. Yes, we did and enjoyed the tranquility. The only criticism is that during the day it is almost impossible to shower as the cold water is boiling from the sun baking on the supply pipes.

Lekker en rusvol. Ja, ons het en het die rustigheid geniet. Enigste kritiek is dat deur die dag dit bykans onmoontlik is om te stort aangesien die koue water kookend is van die son wat op die toevoerpype bak.

Quiet, beautiful and cozy. We had a great stay! Unfortunately the geyser broke during our time there, so the water was cold. The owners made an effort to fix it as quickly as possible, but other than that everything was amazing!

Rustig, mooi en cozy. Ons het baie lekker gebly! Die geyser het ongelukkig gebroke in ons tyd daar, so water was koud. Eienaars het moeite gedoen om dit so vinnig as moontlik te probeer regmaak, maar verder as dit was alles amazing!

"Attention to detail" from the hostess was great! Thank you very much. Very neat (inside and out) and spotlessly clean. The extra space due to the outside area is a bonus for this "tiny home" setup. Nice view. At times a little noisy from the main road, but not bothersome at night. Very well equipped cottage.

"Attention to detail" van gasvrou was puik! Baie dankie. Baie netjies (buite en binne) en silwerskoon. Die ekstra ruimte agv die buite area is 'n bonus vir hierdie "tiny home" opset. Mooi uitsig. Met tye 'n bietjie lawaai van die hoofpad, maar pla nie snags nie. Huisie baie goed toegerus.

Exceptional! We tried staying at the Dam huisie before but our travel plans changed and we had to cancel. It was with pure fluke that we were able to book again and wow, wow, wow! This place is absolutely exceptional. The house is very tastefully decorated and the mattress was very comfortable. The kitchen is fully stocked with pretty much anything you possibly could need for an overnight. The kol kol was such a wonderful addition, especially in the afternoon when the wind picks up. (The wind wound down later.) Our Lab puppy thoroughly enjoyed himself in and out of the house and the fenced garden. This space and its surroundings are so peaceful. This will be our stopover between Oudtshoorn and Cape Town in the future. (Also just to mention, parking is behind a gated fence so the car was easily accessible and safe).
