Verblyf was absoluut netjies en baie goed toegerus. Die paaie is nie baie goed nie. Gelukkig het ons met my seun se Landrover ook die 4x4-roetes kon aanvat.

Accommodation was absolutely neat and very well equipped. The roads are not very good. Fortunately, with my son's Landrover we were also able to take on the 4x4 routes.
Unfortunately one of the toilets was not working and we suspect the drain nearby is also blocked, or close to full - unfortunately a smell. The wildlife is rare and far from humans. Saw at least six types of goats. We might want to go again with the larger family.

Comfortable - but absolutely no game on the farm, and roads were tricky going into the reserve.

Silence, stars, nature at its best.
Zebrahouse has an excellent location, view, quiet because it is a bit away from office and other houses! Well equipped, very nice visit. However, apart from the main route from gate to office and perhaps Zebrahouse, the roads in the reserve need work. Do not try to drive the other 'reserve roads' and roads with a sedan. But if you are just looking for silence, happy with walking and watching animals, it is ideal. WiFi worked but is only available at the office. No longer needed.

Farm break to calm the soul!
Fantastic place to experience total Karoo silence. Clean, tidy and well equipped. Cleverly built to block the mountain wind so that you can sit and barbecue or read on the stoep, even if the wind blows gale-force. Very good & friendly service and communication from Matimba!

Peaceful, quiet and away from all the noise of the city.
Very nice place to break away from the city. Make a big fire and hang out with friends or just your partner. Stargazing and nice hiking trails. Would recommend anyone to stay here.

Beautiful place to visit, the nature is beautiful. Equipped with everything needed and the view from our cottage was beautiful.
Unfortunately we could only stay one night so could not experience the nature reserve in all its glory but took a 4x4 drive on the way out.

We found exactly what we were looking for! Quiet accommodation away from the busy main street.
The accommodation was comfortable and clean. The ranger's service was of outstanding quality. He was prompt in answering questions by email, and during our stay he was always available and helpful. We didn't stay long enough to explore the whole reserve, but the one walk we did was pleasant, and well laid out. We will certainly visit Drie Kuilen again.

Unexpected gem
We stayed in Springbok. The cottage is excellently equipped (even a dishwasher), painstakingly tidy and everything is in good working order. Gemsbok and Springbok are attached to each other and you know about your neighbours, but we were lucky to have pleasant neighbours. The access routes are easily passable with a sedan, but we couldn't reach some of the (must-see) picnic spots with our Fiesta. That's where Matimba comes in - always available for braai wood, advice and help. He took our family on a very affordable game drive to all the breathtaking corners of the reserve and brought the field to life for us - even patiently answering the children's questions. Can't recommend it highly enough! Nice walking route up the hill, where we could even encounter wildlife along the way - followed by a cool off in the reservoir. The place just crept deep into our hearts.

A quiet and lazy relaxing weekend.
We jogged on the trails, did our own game drive and had a picnic at Klipstapels and saw a lot of birds. We saw chamois, zebras, blesbucks, black wildebeest, a rabbit and a moose. Furthermore, we had a nice barbecue and enjoyed the time with the family. There was a large group of children practicing band all the time, so the calm atmosphere was not there. Also, the Springbok house was opposite another one and just partitioned off with a dry wall. The people came in at 00:30 at night with a big noise and woke us up. The bedroom is opposite their living area. Furthermore, everything was as expected and very tidy. Matimba, who is the manager there, was very good with the communication beforehand, as well as during our stay. He is definitely an asset to the place.

Drie Kuilen, Karoo tranquillity.
We definitely made the right choice when we decided to stay at Drie Kuilen. Very spacious and comfortable accommodation. The scenic and tranquil Karoo atmosphere is definitely a winner in the Waboom Mountains near Montaqu. We were only there for one night, but would definitely recommend the place.
