161 guests' feedbackWe had a great time there.
I stayed short but would enjoy staying longer.
Still cold, so not many visitors, which adds to the peaceful atmosphere.
Very friendly person. Will go again but visit longer. Would recommend Oppi Dam to everyone.
Beautiful surroundings and very peaceful. Suggestion: Install Wi-fi.
We really enjoyed the weekend! Beautiful view of the pond and the fishing was very nice!
Oppi Dam is the perfect 'get away' spot. It offers tranquility and a beautiful view. You immediately become part of the Oppi Dam family and the staff are very friendly and helpful.
Great place to go for a good break. Oppi Dam is very well run with 2 beautiful swimming pools and is very centrally located to the town of Oudtshoorn. There is also a shop which has most of your needs.
Really enjoyed the privacy of each campsite.
Running water only for tiny bathroom basin. Tiny mirror. Brown towels, shelves for clothes. Animal hair on blanket.
I already told other campers to visit and stay there.
Management very hospitable and helpful. Very neat and clean. Nature beautiful. Sparkling pools, a peaceful atmosphere that is definitely medicine for your soul. You will definitely see us again.
The pool, air conditioning and ice cold beer at the store was a bonus. Thank you, we will definitely come again.
Amazing - recommend anytime.
Cute stay. Perfect for 2 people. Tidy. Staff very friendly and helpful. Will definitely recommend to family and friends.
Very hospitable owner. Beautiful surroundings and cottage very comfortably furnished. Thank you Pierre and Johan for your hospitality.
Very pleasant. We could rest, walk and enjoy the surroundings.
Jewel of a place in the heart of the Karoo. Lovely caravan pitches, each with its own ablution block. It was so cute that we were almost jealous that we didn't camp. We did have a barbecue with our friends at the caravan sites. We watch birds and there is an awful lot of bird life.
Neat, well equipped and very safe.
Nice store that has a lot of good stock! Can buy wide variety of wine at store! We also bought wood!
The whole resort is clean and very well kept. Nothing I can think of that I was even a little bit disappointed about. The cottage was big and had everything we needed was there.
What a beautiful, peaceful place. Oppi Dam is truly a place to switch off and just enjoy nature. We will definitely book again at Oppi Dam.
Very friendly owner and staff. The campsite is absolutely superbly maintained. All the basic things you need are available on site, so you don't have to drive to Oudtshoorn every time. The nature is beautiful with lots of bird life. It is the ideal place to build up physical and mental strength again. The surrounding attractions such as passes, dirt roads, neighboring towns, etc. is also worth it.
Place just very small. There are possibilities that it can be increased. Actually just a room. Two people cannot be in the kitchen together. Fridge also too small if you want to stay longer than 2 days. Would prefer toilet to have a door.
The chalet has the basics that should be there, disappointingly the outdoor braai and grill were not cleaned, so if we wanted to braai you had to clean the braai yourself.
Friendly and helpful staff and owner.
Nowadays people are looking for their own ablution blocks and this is one of the oppidam's plus points.
Beautiful resort. Very clean, tidy and quiet. Excellent service.
The view from our campsite on the mountains was breathtaking! The bathrooms were tidy, and the premises extremely tidy and well maintained.
It was a pleasant experience. Nice view and value for money.
Lifelike clean, quiet and tidy place.
Excellent place, nice and private and definitely worth the money.
Stayed over to run the Cango Marathon, had a very nice and relaxing weekend.
Johan and the staff were welcoming and very helpful. Having a shop onsite is really useful. The surroundings are well looked after and the unit was clean and well-equipped, though the kitchenette is rather cramped. On the other hand the supply of towels and towel rails was generous! The unit was very small and we would probably not recommend it for an extended stay, However, we took a look at the caravan park and were impressed with the facilities on offer there. Would love to come back sometime with our tent trailer.
Will go again, just longer. Our time was limited.
Very nice place. Nice and neat and clean. Find it a bit expensive for what you get but otherwise very nice. Will come back again.
The cottage was absolutely huge and very tidy. After a day's journey through the Karoo it was welcome to find the oasis in the Karoo. The greenery and plant life around you was fantastic. Quiet and peaceful.
Would recommend the place to anyone. We enjoyed it very much. Will definitely go again.
Fantastic camp with excellent service.
Will go again! Definitely recommend it.
Well-equipped campsite with its own ablution facility that is kept neat and clean. Friendly and helpful staff. Owner who comes to introduce himself and makes you feel at home.
We were warmly and kindly welcomed at the resort. The cottage was beautiful and very comfortably furnished. The premises were beautiful and well taken care of and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Would recommend it anytime.
Very nice stay - facilities are fantastic! Thank you very much.
We were pleasantly surprised at the area and facilities. Our children had a lovely time playing and riding their bike. We can't wait to go again. This time in summer so we can swim as well.
Good value for money. Friendly owner. Cottage next to a dam.
We spent four lovely days camping at our favorite spot. The pitches are beautifully maintained, each with their own ablution and kitchen facilities. The pitch is spacious and covered with beautiful grass. The gardens are wonderfully beautiful all year round. We were the only campers there, but felt very safe. Will definitely always no. 1 in our places to camp.
It's a wonderful place that met all my requirements.
Baie lekker plek om te ontspan en die natuurlewe te besigtig. Vriendelike mense en aangename verblyf.
I would recommend anyone to visit Oppi Dam, it's neat, safe and value for money.
Secure parking. Friendly reception. Comfortable. Affordable.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location was great. The accommodation was fantastic. I will definitely see Oppi Dam again.
Oppi Dam offers accommodation in a beautiful setting close to several tourist attractions. The reception was very friendly and helpful. The residential unit offers fair value for money.
Not far from town. Many interesting places nearby. Weather was great.
Very nice stay at Oppi Dam. Beautiful, comfortable accommodation and centrally located, 15 mins from caves and town.
We had a wonderful stay, everything we needed was there. The cottages are nicely laid out and although small, they were sufficient for the weekend. The people there are all very friendly and we were warmly received there. The little shop on the premises was very convenient and it was wonderful to be able to turn there every day and experience everyone's warm friendliness. The view and the surroundings are perfect, you are surrounded by the beautiful scenery. Even the short drive out to them was not a problem. We prefer to stay out of town.
Oudtshoorn climbed into our hearts and we took a small piece of her home. Oppi Dam is peaceful accommodation and a beautiful location.
Close to strategic venues such as Cango Caves and Karusa wines and beers. Very scenic and peaceful with good support shops.
We really enjoyed it. Beautiful and tranquil. Would definitely recommend to friend and foe.
We had a good night's rest after a long day of travelling. It's also in a safe, quiet environment.
The accommodation is good, but the parking and stairs to the house could improve.
We had a great time camping. I recommend it to everyone who wants to come camping.
Very well kept venue with great accommodation. Brilliant for my children and very quiet for the parents.
The campsite is peaceful and very beautiful. Als was great.
The reception was warm and friendly. Accommodation absolutely neat and clean. Very nice surroundings and beautiful gardens. I would visit again anytime and highly recommend.
Was well received, chalet was tidy and equipped with the necessary, breathtaking view, well located, not too far from the town, safe environment, will definitely stay there again.
Nice and quiet and safe with friendly service.
Friendly welcome and stay was excellent. Clean, tidy and very comfortable. Thank you to Pierre and his team.
Oppi Dam can be recommended for a great camping experience. Very comfortable and spacious stands. Away from the city rush, true farm tranquility. We will be back. Highly recommended for camping or even the self-catering units.
We really relaxed there. Had great service. Will definitely go there again. Thanks so much, we really enjoyed it there.
Die vriendelikheid van personeel en netheid van huisies het my verbaas. Sal regtig graag weer daar gaan kuier.
Very neat place. Will definitely come again but definitely for 2 nights, staff also very friendly and helpful.
We had a fantastic time at Oppi Dam, there are two lovely swimming pools and also a dam you can row on! Everything was spotless and tidy. The farm is a few kilometers outside Oudtshoorn in Schoemanshoek and the location is picturesque. There are numerous restaurants in the area and even a small beer brewery at Karusa. Will definitely recommend!
Very nice place, peaceful and quiet. Just what one needs to get away from the hustle and bustle.
It is better, more beautiful, and bigger than many places I have visited. I would recommend it to any person.
Enjoyed, would love to return.
Beautiful views and surroundings, cottage could have been a little cleaner, but it was a good stay.
Simple, neat, clean, conveniently located. Everything you need for a quiet and peaceful getaway. Will definitely visit again for longer and longer stays.
For the short time I did spend at Oppi Dam, it was very peaceful and enjoyable for me and my son. Good value for the money I paid.
Enjoyed the peace and quiet.
I would definitely be returning. I had a wonderful time. All basic kitchen things were available. The shower had nice hot water. And the pool was nice and clean.
The term Resort is used very loosely and the photos create the impression of a "resort". These were a few chalets next to a farm pond. Not even decent parking for cars. Not again, thanks!
Oppi Dam is a very nice holiday spot with lots to do in the area. I would recommend the place to anyone! I would definitely stay at Oppi Dam again!
Very nice, very clean, neat, friendly and safe.
Would love to visit again as soon as possible, incredibly clean and tidy and very beautiful. A must for everyone, young or old.
What a gem in my beloved town. Wonderful staff and owner who only give the best to their guests. We are already counting down the naps until our next visit.
It was a great joy and delight to camp at Oppi Dam. Each stand has its own ablutions which makes it nice and private. Lovely lawns between the pitches keep everything free of dust when other vehicles pass by. The owner, Pierre Schoeman, immediately attends to any problem that arises. We wholeheartedly recommend Oppi Dam to anyone who wants to camp.
Unbelievable, beautiful jewel with a very friendly staff. Oppie Dam made a huge impression on us. A lovely holiday destination for those who want to get back to the simplicity of the nature. Chalets were well equipped and even though we were not in the tented camp, it look exquisitely beautiful and convenient. Would definitely visit them again, maybe with a tent as part of my luggage!
We were very well welcomed by the owner and his wife, they were very friendly. Stay place was very nice, clean and tidy. Place is well equipped, ideally located. Felt safe and could relax. We can really recommend it.
It was so peaceful. The owners very friendly and helpful. The camp and chalets are extremely tidy.
Thank you to Rosina and her team for an unforgettable time on their beautiful, very well maintained farm.
Reception was good, very neat and well located.
We enjoyed the accommodation. The house was neat and clean and everything we needed was there. It is good value for money. We were there previously and will return. If you just want to rest, this is a good idea. If, however, you don't like children making a noise around the swimming pool, rather avoid it.
We were quite surprised at the resort. Everything very neat and the resort clean and very comfortable. We were visited every day to hear if everything is in order and whether we need anything. The staff and owners were really friendly and helpful. We'd definitely visit Oppi Dam again for our next vacation. Thank you for an unforgettable vacation.
Room is right in front of the dam. Is very small but it has everything but hanging space for clothes. Water was cold to shower.
We love doing weekend getaways with our adult kids. Will definitely come and try your camping spot as well. It looks great, well equipped, nice and green with a lovely swimming pool for those Oudtshoorn summers.
Oppi Dam chalets overlook the dam which is rich in birdlife and adds to the peaceful nature of the place. The chalet had everything we needed and was very quiet. A great weekend getaway.
Great stay, will stay at Oppi Dam again. What could be nicer than a fire, wine in hand and seeing the sunset over the pond in front of you! Quiet, no noise.
Very nice neat and clean and spacious self-catering unit. Kitchen was somewhat disappointingly equipped for a family of 6 (only a small "toaster oven") but otherwise everything was of excellent quality.
Except for the water-main that burst the first night and the gas running out, we had a nice time. The tranquillity is out of this world!
Wow, what a stunning place. Idyllic and chalets are luxurious and fantastic.
Everything we asked for was there. The service, neatness and friendly staff was awesome. Will definitely recommend it and will make use of their accommodation again.
Camped for a week and it was very nice. Reception was very friendly and the campsite was always clean and tidy. Will refer anyone to the place anytime.
Had a lovely stay and a nice swim, have no complaints. Would suggest that the sides of the roof are covered completely. The morning sun blinds you a bit, and on the bathroom side we were pestered by bees who flew in there. The only thing that was an issue for us was the Alsatian that walked around freely. The dog relieved himself next to our tent and pushed his nose into our bags. We had to chase him away.
Some great relaxation. Maybe they can just do one thing to improve the accommodation. They can put TVs in the units.
Enjoyed camping, everything was good.
It was an unbelievable experience to have a view over the dam and nature and to experience the peacefulness.
The chalet for 4 people is spacious and neat. The garden makes you feel at home. Staying at Oppi Dam was worth the money. Central location if you want to visit the town or the activities in the area.
Relaxing family time alone. Friendly staff. Green mountain atmosphere. Close to a lot of attractions.
This was my second time staying here and it was just as pleasant as the first time. My only critique is that the parking is a bit small at chalets 1 and 2. The modern double cab bakkies are very big and take up a lot of space. Without a doubt I can recommend Oppi Dam. Had a wonderful stay.
This is the second time we have stayed at Oppi Dam and I will go back again, people so friendly and make you feel very welcome.
We had a nice stay and were surprised by how modern the chalets were - very neat. It is such a beautiful part of the world. Nice place to relax ─ quiet and peaceful!
Spent three nights here and wished we had stayed longer. Although our accommodation was small it met all our needs. Staff were friendly and helpful at all times. The resort is the neatest resort we have ever stayed in. A real treat for the eyes. The setting is also a bonus. You will definitely see us again!
Everything is neat and clean and the staff were unbelievably helpful and friendly. Will definitely want to go there again and highly recommend the place.
It was lovely to stay there. Reception was friendly and it's clean and tidy in the Cottage. Beautiful view. Will definitely come again.
We had such a good time camping, I don't feel like going to a place again where ablution has to be shared. It was the most amazing experience! Everyone was friendly, the place is clean - it was just amazing! Thank you very much.
We had a very friendly welcome and the accommodation is very neat, clean and peaceful.
It is a beautiful place to relax. Value for money. Really enjoyed it. Will go again.
The service was excellent from the moment we got there until we left. The lady on duty came to our campsite twice over the weekend to make sure that everything was in order and that we had everything we needed. The place was spotless and an effort is clearly being made to properly maintain the facilities and ensure that the lawns remain nice and lush.
It is a beautiful place with the most beautiful view. We had a wonderful stay there and the staff is very friendly.
It was definitely worth every penny. The view is incredible.
The people and location were fantastic!
See rating.
It is a beautiful place with very nice people!
It was absolutely lovely to stay there. The period was just too short. It is a very beautiful environment. The hostess is very helpful and friendly.
Stay was great. Owner and staff were hospitable, friendly and loving. Slept very well.
See the stars.
We enjoyed our stay and it was lovely to swim in a very clean pool.
Me and my wife's car abandoned us on the side of the road. I let Mrs. Schoeman know and she immediately got on the phone, and helped us where we were. We spent a week there. Today I want to say thank you for your hospitality, kindness, the company for everything you people did for me and my wife, it was way above my expectation. I would advise anyone to enjoy their holiday at Oppi Dam. As reported the place is value for money, customer service was fantastic, cleanliness, location and safety were first class. Thank you very much!
It was a fantastic experience and so nice and peaceful and beautiful. The people are all friendly and the restaurant is well priced and the food is delicious.
Very neat, thank you! The cleanliness of the unit exceeded our expectations.
Will definitely use the place again. The staff are friendly and helpful. Good location and very clean!
Had a great stay, cleaning service in the morning and TV will make the place even better. Restaurant's food is great!
Very nice stay in the Karoo to see the Kango Caves, Swartberge and ostriches. Very good location in rural area.
We were pleasantly surprised with the cute little house. We were very impressed by the crisp bedding in the tidy rooms. Staff were very accommodating. We can definitely recommend Oppi Dam.
Beautiful surroundings and the pool is nice and clean.
Excellent location but unfortunately the 3 star rating is misleading. The cottage is not 3 star quality in my opinion. No privacy as there is no door to the toilet. The shower's hot water supply has a problem, it's boiling hot and the next moment freezing cold without you even turning on the cold tap. Owners should not threaten guests with a fine if you leave dirty dishes, what is the guest paying for? Definitely not cleaning yourself.
There is only one recommendation that we would mention at House 2: It might be good to install a door, even a swinging door, between the living area and bathroom. For privacy and potential 'bad smells'. The owner asked our opinion about television in the cottage and we feel it is not necessary at all. This beautiful place made us so peaceful after a busy 2014. Thank you very, very much.
Very large apartment, definitely worth the money. Close to shops etc. Friendly welcome.
Absolutely fantastic! Very impressed with the facilities!
Piere and Rosina are beautiful people and one feels right at home at Oppi Dam. Would go there again anytime.
The facilities are clean, rates are excellent, ideal situation, close enough to town to not be a hassle if you need to go but far enough that you are in the "country" and close to attractions like the caves.
See the stars below.
Pleasant people. Nice environment.
Very nice stay there. Personal attention and all information on arrival was given. The campsites also look very cute.
We enjoyed every moment.
My wife and I spent 3 nights in the Cottage, which we found to be well appointed, very well maintained and spotlessly clean, albeit quite small. Oppi Dam is well located, close to several popular sights and attractions as well as Oudtshoorn itself, should you need to do some shopping. At the same time it is also remote enough to allow you to relax completely and unwind. There is a general dealer onsite, and a restaurant which whips up some delicious food which is very well priced. We received fantastic service from Rosina and the restaurant staff during our stay, and would not hesitate to make a booking here again if we need accommodation in the area.
Little thing we received is very friendly and made sure we were satisfied. The environment is beautiful and peaceful, but it's for people who are satisfied with the basics.
Pleasant and relaxing.
Great customer service. Neat and well maintained. Would just love to have a TV in the unit.
The facilities were clean and in good condition. It was a luxury camping long weekend and we will definitely go back again.
Very quiet and tidy accommodation. Rooms nice and spacious. Reception very friendly.
We will come again!
See the stars below.
Overall very good for the price. We had a few power failures due to the bad weather - rain and thunderstorms - it was not nice when we woke up and we had to wait for the office to open to inform Oppi Dam management that we did not have any power to make our morning coffee - however it was resolved immediately by them and they even offered us coffee there (great service)!
Beds a little hard for the "mature body", and we "city types" missed TV quite a bit. Otherwise, everything was above expectations.
Without television, more suitable for getting away from town or city.
It was a pleasant time.
The lady at reception was friendly. The bedding was good. The hot water in the kitchen was not flowing and there was half a roll of toilet paper in the toilet.
Excellent value for money and ideal if you want to see the caves. We were there in high season, but the place was quiet and peaceful. A good choice!
The reception was very friendly. Our chalet was tasteful and very tidy. Breathtaking view of the mountains!
These are very beautiful places! It is very beautiful with the view on the dam!
