Heerlike Langnaweek op die oewer van die Vaal Rivier.

Translate to English.
Lovely long weekend on the banks of the Vaal River.
Definitely one of the camping sites on the Vaal River that is thoroughly worth the effort. Strict rules regarding music and noise mean that one can fully enjoy the beauty of nature and the sounds. The ablutions were so clean you could eat off the floors. The staff is friendly, and if you want to walk around Paris, it's a stone's throw away.

Expected more. Accommodation was not worth the price. Although it was clean. Tables of loin lamb, an incredible amount of ants, no poison.

Aanbevole bestemming vir die kampeerder wat hou van stilte en natuur. Om die tent so na as moontlik aan die rivier te kan opslaan is 'n lafenis.
This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.
Recommended destination for the camper who likes silence and nature. Being able to pitch the tent as close as possible to the river is a pleasure.
It had been a lovely break by the river with the osprey's call breaking the silence. The campsite is nice and clean and the services are neat. Will camp here again for sure, maybe just next summer.

It's very basic. Would recommend for anglers only.
A fisherman's dream. We are people who make our time pleasant and do not need all tools to do it for us. However, it would be of incredible help if we could have a "camp master" who at least came to see if you were comfortable. We would like to change positions. What we really needed was someone (who will pay you extra) to help set up camp. Sorry for the dogs running around the world. An inconvenience is the day visitors who come to barbecue between the pitches. We cannot leave our camp. Would be nice if they had a separate day visitor area. Good luck to the camp owners, we rested anyway.

Comfortable chalets (and beautiful campsites) on the banks of the Vaal River.
The chalets are neat and have a nice view of the river. The resort has strict rules on noise pollution and we have been very much appreciated to experience nature and even hear an osprey from time to time. And of course, Paris, with all its fine dining options, is just 20 minutes drive away. We could see there are serious fishermen who have lovely campsites right on the river bank. Dimalachite will definitely see us again!

Potential to be a lovely resort.
After reading all the positive reviews we were quite disappointed with the resort upon arrival. The terrain was bitterly dry and grass but sparse. At least reception was nice enough to let us exchange a full sun pitch for one with coolness. The pool is right next to the ablution block, which leads to people littering the place. The B-block is also not very clean, sanitary napkins are thrown in a big drum by the door but the people don't close the lid and it attracts a lot of flies and bad smells. It's a shame that campers can't all just leave a place the way they found it. Unfortunately I don't feel it was value for money.

Neat and satisfied.
Our stay was wonderful. The location is great. Staff is friendly. We stayed in a cottage for 7 people (we were 6 adults) and it was a bit tight for so many people, would say the size of the cottage is more suitable for 4 people, especially in the evenings when it's cold, where you are inside want to sit I was sorry to hear that you are not allowed to drive your own car to see wildlife. We had a great stay and would recommend it to people. The facilities were very neat and clean. We will visit them again.

Lovely and peaceful.
The resort is on the banks of the Vaal River. We would have camped but due to the rain we decided to rent one of the rondavels instead. They were neat and well equipped. Then they upgraded us to a lodge without asking more for it - luxurious and efficient! There is a tuck shop and the resort can organise activities for guests, such as river rafting. The place is well kept and very relaxing. They also have their own game there. All the staff are very friendly and helpful. The resort is fenced and one feels safe inside. People with young children should be careful due to the river, though. An angle fishing paradise, and the tuck shop caters for fishermen.

Beautiful area.
I was a bit disappointed. We were there for a longweekend in December. It is beautiful by the river, but the resort isn't well looked after. The photos give a nicer picture than the reality. Weeds on the putt putt course grew to knee height between the cracks. The lodge we stayed in had a lovely patio where you could chill, but there were only 2 chairs and a small coffee table, while the unit had space for 2 adults and 2 children. Thus there wasn't enough place to sit for everyone, we asked the staff of the resort for a table and chairs and they brought some for us.

Hi Sonja,
Baie dankie vir die moeite om 'n "review" te skryf.
Jammer oor die paar bossies wat in krake van die ou tennisbaan se vloer waarop 'n nuwe put, put baan gebou is. Ons het al 15 bossies laat uittrek.
Bly om te hoor dat julle tevrede is met die ekstra tafels en stoele wat ons vir julle uitgeplaas het onder die afdak.
