The game camp is stocked with red hartebeest, impala, zebra, ostriches, waterbuck, springbuck, blesbuck, black wildebeest, and eland, and game viewing is mainly done in a Land Rover.

3 guests' feedbackEverything is neat and clean. The kitchen has everything you need and the facilities are excellent! Special thanks to the hostess who opened her beautiful garden for me to walk in and get quiet. Couldn't ask for more to just step aside and be quiet. Exactly what I was hoping for. Will be back again for sure.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this very peaceful Eastern Free State getaway. The lodge is very comfortable, has amazing views, is beautifully furnished, has a well-equipped kitchen, lots of firewood, and is serviced daily. We enjoyed hiking, mountain biking, and relaxing with the family. Great hosts too!
The view was fantastic and the accommodation very nicely furnished, neat, beautiful and clean.
