We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful, cozy cabin and will book again. Our stay was absolutely amazing! The cabin is beautiful, cozy, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. We had such a wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed every moment. We will definitely be booking another stay in the future. Highly recommended!

It was nice and tranquil and a great place to experience a bit of nature. Tranquil and serene, and really cosy.

Very nice "off the grid" self-spare time. High quality finish, attention to detail is 5* plus. The most beautiful getaway in the bush safely hidden away, yet not far from extremely helpful hosts. Looks exactly like the photos, only more beautiful.

Baie lekker "off the grid" self bederf tydjie. Hoë kwaliteit afwerking, aandag aan detail is 5* plus. Die mooiste in die bos wegbreek veilig versteek, tog nie ver van uiters behulpsame gashere. Lyk presies soos die foto's, net mooier.

Incredible and indescribable. It was incredibly peaceful and quiet.

Ongelooflike en onbeskryflike. Dit was ongelooflik so rustig en stil.

Squirrels Rest is neat, clean and modern. We would definitely stay there again. We had a wonderful stay! However, there was no reception for the TV.

Squirrels Rest is netjies, skoon en modern. Ons sal definitief weer daar wil bly. Ons het heerlik gebly! Daar was egter geen opvangs vir die TV nie.

Awesome. Beautiful and exceptionally clean. Very well equipped. Warm welcome. Peaceful bush feeling. Would recommend to anyone.

Pragtig en besonders skoon. Baie goed toegerus. Hartlike verwelkoming. Rustige bosgevoel. Beveel dit vir enige iemand aan.
