“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exceptional Stay - Truly Unforgettable Experience”
+We had an absolutely outstanding stay at Stroomrivier Lodge and can wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and memorable experience in South Africa. The property itself is simply stunning. The layout is incredibly spacious and thoughtfully designed - with separate houses for the bedrooms and the main living area (kitchen, dining, and lounge), which creates a wonderful sense of privacy while still feeling very connected. The outdoor living is just as impressive: generous terraces, a beautiful boma, and peaceful surroundings that invite you to fully unwind. One of the most magical aspects of this place is the setting. Overlooking a dam, we were lucky enough to watch rhinos and buffalo coming down to drink at night - an experience we will never forget. No matter where you are on the property, the views are spectacular. What truly made our stay exceptional, however, was the people. A special thank you to Godfrey, who went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. From organizing two incredible game drives to showing us how to fish. Nothing was ever too much to ask. Even though the lodge is self-catering, the team provided such thoughtful support - helping with dish

“An oasis”
+Beautifully situated property next to a water hole, looking towards the hills in the distance. Well equipped and comfortable. We self catered but there was staff on hand to help clean and service. Property had a large fire pit and different areas to sit and relax.

“Exceptional”
+We had a truly wonderful time during our weekend getaway with a group of 12 close friends and family. From start to finish, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and cared for,truly spoiling us with their hospitality. The highlight of our stay was undoubtedly the game drives, guided by the exceptional Ranger Godfrey. His deep knowledge of the land’s history and wildlife added so much depth to the experience, making each drive not only exciting but also educational. He took such thoughtful care of us,packing a cooler bag and blankets for the drives, Early evenings he spoiled us even more by lighting fires inside the home and at the outdoor fire pit to warm us and keep us cozy. Another unforgettable part of our stay was watching the wildlife roam freely right on our doorstep, gathering at the nearby watering hole. It was an incredible experience to witness such natural beauty so up close,something truly special that made our time there feel magical. Every morning, we woke to a spotless home, cleaned and prepared before we were even up, setting the tone for another day of fun and relaxation. We can’t recommend this venue highly enough to anyone who loves nature, tran

“10/10 relaxing and peaceful bush get away in the most serene location”
+Our stay at Stroomrivier was exceptional. The location is stunning in the middle of a private reserve where we were visited by rhino and buffalo at our doorstep. The staff were also amazing, nothing was too much trouble and they made sure we were well looked after. Huge thank you to Godfrey for being such a champ and going above and beyond.
−The only suggestion I have for other travellers is to not take the turn off from the M4 as it is an 18km dirt road, rather go via Boshoek and take the much shorter dirt road
