Fantastiese uitsig. Lekker rustig. Goed ingerig.

Met ons aankoms het Elias ons verwelkom en het ons na ons eenheid geneem. Die uitsig vanaf die eenheid is ongelooflik mooi, dit kyk uit oor die dam. Die omgewing is rustig en ons nie steurnisse gehad nie, daar het net so paar ape vir ons kom kuier op een van die dae. Daar is ook 'n staproete na die dam, dis wel deur die bos en enige "hiker" se droom. Die eenheid besik oor basies alles wat jy gaan nodig hê met jou vakansie: koffie, tee, suiker, muskietgoed, braaisout, skottelgoedseep en so aan. Vir warm maande soos Desember beveel ek 'n lugversorger aan, maar ons het lekker afgekoel in ons eie privaat swembad.

Fantastic view. Nice and quiet. Well appointed.

Upon our arrival, Elias welcomed us and took us to our unit. The view from the unit is incredibly beautiful, overlooking the dam. The environment is peaceful and we had no disturbances, only a few monkeys came to visit us on one of the days. There is also a hiking trail to the dam, it is through the forest and any "hiker's" dream. The unit has basically everything you will need on your holiday: coffee, tea, sugar, mosquito repellent, barbecue salt, dish soap and so on. For hot months like December I recommend an air conditioner, but we had a great time cooling off in our own private pool.

Relaxing, quiet with the best view.

One of the top spots I visited in Hazyview. The whole household wanted to stay a day extra. It is safe and quiet. Awesome view of the lake from the patio and pool. The bedding and towels were nice and clean and it had the best smell. The chimney worked wonders on the cool nights. Full DStv so we could watch the Bokke beat the Lions again. Looking forward to the next visit.

Bushwillow was superb. It was quiet, relaxing, beautiful view. Very private and well maintained.

Our family loved our stay at Bushwillow. We would definitely book the accommodation again and have recommended it to a number of friends. The staff were very friendly and efficient. Bushwillow is well situated to access Kruger, God's Window, the Bourke's Luck and many other sites. After a day of sightseeing we all looked forward to returning for an evening on the patio of Bushwillow. We all wish we could have stayed longer. Many thanks for our wonderful stay.

Ongelooflike skoon, veilige plek met mooi natuurlewe.

Ons verblyf by Bushwillow was verskriklik lekker. Van die nagapies wat in die aande in die bome speel, tot die Visarend wat sing oor die dam. Die eenheid self is baie goed toegerus, skoon en netjies met baie spasie vir die kinders om te speel. Ons het die heeltyd veilig en tuis gevoel. Sal beslis weer daar boek vir 'n wegbreekvakansie.

Incredibly clean, safe place with beautiful wildlife.

Our stay at Bushwillow was very nice. From the nightingales that play in the trees in the evenings, to the Osprey that sings over the pond. The unit itself is very well equipped, clean and tidy with plenty of space for the children to play. We felt safe and at home the whole time. Will definitely book there again for a getaway.

Baie Dankie vir die terugvoering. Ek sal baie seker maak met die huisbestuurder dat dit nie weer gebeur nie. Ek verstaan van hom dat die skoonmakers "vergeet" het om die handoeke af te bring na die huis toe.

Baie rustig en gemaklik. Beslis 'n lekker plek om te wees.

Ons het lekker gekuier. Ons was daar met 'n groep motorfietse. Al was dele van die pad grondpad gewees was dit nogsteeds maklik om te ry en mooi geskraap. Die omgewing is baie mooi en rustig. Sal beslis Bushwillow aanbeveel.

Ek sal Bushwillow aanbeveel vir my vriende en familie.

Dit is 'n fantasties mooi plekkie en alles wat mens moontlik kan nodig hê is daar. Ek sal Bushwillow vir enigiemand aanbeveel. Maak net seker dat die hotel waar jy die sleutel moet optel weet van jou aankoms. Die omgewing is asemrowend mooi en daar is soveel om te doen.

Die plekkie is waarde vir geld.

Ons was a groep van 8 op 'n gholftoer. Daar was oor as genoeg plek vir almal en ons het lekker gebly en gekuier. Daar was nie 'n skottelgoedwasser soos dit geadverteer was en al was daar 'n DStv-dekodeerder was dit nie geaktiveer nie en daar is ook nêrens melding gemaak dat die huurder/s hul eie kaart moet saambring. Andersins het ons dit baie geniet.

The place is value for money.

We were a group of 8 on a golf tour. There was more than enough room for everyone and we had a good time staying and visiting. There was not a dishwasher as it was advertised and even though there was a DStv decoder it was not activated and it was not mentioned anywhere that the tenant/s must bring their own card. Otherwise we really enjoyed it.

Beste Renato,

Baie dankie vir jou opmerkings. Ek sal definitief my advertensie verander, die skottelgoedwasser het onlangs gebreek en ons wag nog vir die nuwe masjien. Die DStv is geavtiveer maar soms met die weer moet dit "reset" word.

Ek hoop julle sal weer kom kuier en dat ons dan vir julle 'n 5-ster ervaring kan gee in alle opsigte.

Home away from home! Little piece of heaven in the middle of God's nature.

Bushwillow and surroundings has the most amazing view of the Da Gama Dam where you wake up to the fish eagle's call every morning. Very central to routes to be taken up the Graskop area, God's Window, The Pinnacle, Bourke's Luck and Three Rondawels. Also a relaxing drive to Sabie, Pilgrim's Rest and all the surrounding waterfalls. Close enough to take a day's drive through the Kruger Park.

Voorwaar 'n juweel.

Kombuis meer as vollledig toegerus, slaapkamers ruim en netjies. Die leefarea is groot genoeg vir agt mense en het 'n kaggel. Die hout dek en braai-area is groot en maak voorsiening vir 'n heerlike kuier. Die swembad is net groot genoeg om 'n somer kuier te vervolmaak. Die ligging is uitstekend en baie mooi. Sekuriteit kan nie beter nie en die personeel is vriendelik en behulpvaardig. Sal definitief weer besoek in die somer. Daar is regtig geen negatiewe punte by Bushwillow nie.
