A piece of heaven.
From the moment we landed at Eagle Falls we were warmly welcomed by Michael and his team and immediately felt at home. The main chalet has a beautiful view of the pools and the waterfall. Everything is clean and tidy. Even with load shedding provision has been made for emergency lights. We will definitely visit again and bring quite a few friends.

Lekker bene in die lug met koue bier en lekker braai. Na 7 ure op MTB was die bier baie koud.

Nice legs in the air with cold beer and nice barbecue. After 7 hours on MTB the beer was very cold.
Reception by Renaldo was very friendly, he helped us with every demand. The wood for the fire was dry.

Very unfortunate.
It was our first holiday, we decided to camp there for 4 days for Christmas. Because they market like that and have all the activities there on their site, but it wasn't like that, it was said there was a swimming pool, horse riding, abseiling, quad bikes, nothing there. I asked the owner when he didn't do it anymore, I was very upset, when I asked about the pool he said he was swimming in Berg's Dam, but on the website they say there is a pool. There is only WiFi at the bar, not at the campsite. No horses and things and the dirt road is really not nice to drive with your car, there were also signs like they were driving from all activities but it's not like that. I am very unhappy that I only stayed there one night out of 3 nights that we paid for. Until today the owner or management has not contacted us about our issues, probably because we are not as important as other guests staying at the lodge, but I am unhappy because it would be first camp, and all the money we spend to buy things Very very disappointed, why are they advertising stuff they don't do?

Goeie dag Karel,
Dankie vir jou resensie. Ek is jammer jy het nie jou verblyf by ons geniet nie en ek wil vir jou n langnaweek kampering gratis aanbied vir jou ongerief. In verband met die abseiling moet dit ongelukkig vooraf gereel word, omdat ons mense van Oudtshoorn kry om dit aan te bied. Ek wens jy het vooraf met my gepraat hieroor, maar julle was vroeg die volgende oggend al klaar weg.
Groete
Michael

Breathtaking view, but that's about it!
Sub-standard facilities - chips in the crockery, worn-out kitchen cupboards, mold in the shower, old bedding and furniture. And on top of it all you get 1-ply toilet paper!

Rooms too close to other rooms, wanted to be alone.
Nice area but rooms too close to each other. The restaurant is more of a bar and doesn't create a friendly atmosphere, it's more of a sports bar type of place.

Rest for the soul!
The service, the view and the accommodation were all fantastic! Just not sure how clean the place was, there was a bowl of old meat in the fridge when we got there, bedding had a few marks on it and there was no toilet paper, but it's a fantastic break and I will definitely go again.

Basic overnight facilities with breathtaking views of mountain ranges and waterfall.
The cottages are already quite old and it looks like basic maintenance has not been done for a long time, for example kitchen faucet that does not want to turn completely, shower faucet has come completely loose. Furthermore, our view was fantastic and we did sleep well.

Fantastic location, accommodation needs attention.
Eagle Falls' location is fantastic - and the no cell phone reception makes for good disconnection from the outside world. You literally become a part of nature at Eagle Falls. We (4 adults and 1 child) had to change our booking dates at short notice, but were immediately met by Michael. The "cabin" we were assigned was an absolute disappointment. The unit does not have 2 bedrooms, but rather 1 bedroom with 2 single beds that filled the entire living area. A door from the bedroom leads straight into the bar and is locked from inside the bar. Furthermore, the door is not completely full - the music from the bar is louder in the bedroom than in the bar next door. Despite many requests one night to turn the TV down because of a sleeping 2 year old in the room, we were only told it would be done in a little while. That stretch took a few hours to set in. A wall box is right in front of the sink - so you have to stand by the drying area to wash dishes. Furthermore, the door racks of the fridge were gone, the freezer had no partition and the fridge door was held in place with a piece of wire. The unit may be suitable for a parent couple with a child/ers, but not for 2 adult couples with a child as our booking was made. There is also little privacy at the cabins - when you sit on your porch or have a barbecue, your neighbor is a few steps away from you. No partition/privacy between the cabins. However, the hospitality at Eagle Falls is top notch and the meals we ordered from the kitchen were delicious! Will definitely visit Eagle Falls again, but will stay overnight at the chalets rather than the cabins. (Note, we were never told that changing the dates would cause a problem or result in a sub-standard cabin).

Not value for money.
Very nice area in mountains. Road is not pretty. We drive a Kia Sportage and struggled on dirt roads. Need a 4x4 preferably. Especially if you want to go to the ponds for fishing, could not go there by car. Our accommodation was dirty, it was definitely not cleaned. Previous people who stayed there still had their food in the microwave, and the reason is probably because the microwave didn't work at all. Hanging cabinet door fell off when we opened it, the room is very small. There is only 1 room with kitchen, bedroom and a TV. Not worth the money at all.

Camping for one night's stay.
At late notice, we got accommodation in a camping ground through excellent service from Leckeslaap over the internet. Reception was very friendly and helpful. Owner personally pointed out campsite for us. Amenities are decent and spotless. Very nice grass and trees in the campsite. Amazing view and many activities to do. We felt very welcome in the informal and well-run resort. The self help reception was great.
