We as a family with 2 small children really enjoyed the campsite. Children had a lot of fun swimming and walking on the farm roads.
Very nice big campsite. Neat amenities.
Absolutely lovely. Will go back soon.
Of the 23 countries and countless campsites in each I've been to, I can honestly say this was likely the most well thought out site I've used. The hot water on demand is a game changer, the fire pit is delightful. There are more sinks than you know what to do with, and the trees offer the perfect amount of shade. I honestly can't say enough good things about this little space. And all the staff were great to us, answered all our questions about crossing the border on the way to Botswana. If I'm ever in the area again, I will 100% be staying again.
Lovely camp and place to visit with many facilities. The forest jacuzzi was a winner with soap in it for extra bubbles. It's very peaceful and there is a waterhole within walking distance. Had a lovely time and the host is very helpful and friendly.
A great place to get away from the city. We camped and although there are no power points, there are nice bathrooms. Each stand has its own private ablution. The children were able to swim wonderfully and tire themselves out playing in the field. Walking and cycling are wonderful on the farm. Also ideal for a stopover on the way to Botswana!
We had a very nice stay at the Grootwater Lodge. We received a warm welcome from Gideon and Monica. The log cabins were very complete and we enjoyed two very peaceful days in de Kraal.
Beautiful space with a lot of seats, a pingpong table, a bar, a proper kitchen, nice beds and showers. Beautiful place to stay at!
The animals were rare because the forest is so dense. Would recommend that the viewing is done on foot. The bush jacuzzi is a hit, especially on hot days. Would like to see a bar fridge in the relaxation area and brighter lights for the bookworms.
The lodges are situated in a quiet and secluded part of the estate. There is room for additional campers and/or camper vans as part of the area, with power and plenty of washing/ablutions facilities. Each chalet is compact in size but has all the amenities you need. There is also a central communal kitchen. In the kitchen, there is a stove and oven, microwave and gas hob. Due to load shedding, we could not use the electrical appliances and the gas hob was not connected, however, this has been reported to the hosts who have confirmed they will remedy this. The hosts met us upon arrival and we received a friendly welcome, and nothing was too much trouble for them in order to make our stay comfortable.
Lovely, quiet forest camp. We would love to stop over again, or maybe even stay longer next time!
Loved every second of my stay and the friendliness of the host. Thank you for the relaxing experience. Once again thank you for the stay. 5 stars! Truly enjoyed the stay. Clean. Friendly staff and host. Loved it.
The only place where you find peace for your soul is in the forest. What made it more enjoyable was the hospitality of Monica. The chalets are both equipped with their own bathrooms. Ideal for going a group that also likes to camp. Also a separate bathroom for the campers. I thoroughly enjoyed the forest kitchen. Men naturally saw the boma as a hit. Saw quite a lot of wildlife, giraffe, kudus, impalas and blesboks. Guess the other game was just shy of us with the 7 year old boy who was with us. We could only use the forest jacuzzi on the 2nd last day due to the blessing of rain for the woodland. Is there a next time? For sure!
Explore the reserve on foot.
