Fantastic time.

The cottage at Eagles Nest was an absolute gem. What amazing views and so comfortable despite being rustic.

Was baie lekker. Sal altyd terug gaan. Die bestuurder en sy vrou het my goed behandel, en tot vir my ys in die veld gebring.

Dis fantasties en ek sal altyd weer gaan en weer gaan, heeltemal iets anders. Hoor en sien baie diere en ek het baie veilig gevoel. Ek was goed behandel. Kan niks sleg sê nie. Genoeg hout en alles vir ons gelos. Die plek was soon en netjies.

Was very nice. Will always go back. The manager and his wife treated me well, and even brought me ice in the field.

It's fantastic and I will always go again and again, something completely different. Heard and saw many animals and I felt very safe. I was treated well. Can't say anything bad. Enough wood and everything left for us. The place was nice and tidy.

Enjoyed by whole family.

We had a lovely stay. Comfortable and beautiful. The main big house was very comfortable, can do with an upgrade of the crockery and cutlery. A slightly bigger fridge would be nice, for longer stays over the festive season. And to ensure all appliances are in working condition.

Tranquil.

The platform is filthy. No attention to anything. Great idea, location and fantastic views. Monkeys are totally out of control. Lots of maintenance needs to be done.

Rustig, vriendelike mense, behulpsaam.

Het heerlike stil tydjie gehad, blyplek kan verbeterings aan gedoen word en opknappingswerk is volgens my nie heeltemal op standard nie, die platform se skadunet was vol gate en kraan by stort het groot lawaai gemaak as jy dit oopdraai.

Quiet, friendly people, helpful.

Had a lovely quiet time, accommodation could do with improvements and renovations are not quite up to standard in my opinion, the platform's shade net was full of holes and the faucet at the shower made a lot of noise when you turned it on.

Nie vir familie met klein kinders nie.

Moenie hierheen gaan as jy wil kamp met klein kinders nie. Daar is bosluise en 'n kameelperd wat met sy kop kap en skop. Die swemarea was vreeslik besig. Daar was ook 'n plas rioolwater waardeur ons moes ry. Geen aanduidings van waarheen om te ry.

Not for family with small children.

Do not go here if you want to camp with small children. There are ticks and a giraffe that chops and kicks its head. The swimming area was very busy. There was also a puddle of sewage that we had to drive through. No indications of where to drive.

Anders, maar lekker in die bos!

Ons het in die platform geslaap. Baie oop, maar veilig in die bos. Het dit baie geniet want dit was iets anders. Die personeel was baie hulpvaardig en vriendelik. Restaurant het lekker kossies en vriendelike atmosfeer.

Fantastiese geriewe en waarde vir geld.

Ons het in die Lodge gebly en dit was fantasties. Francina het uit haar pad gegaan om ons gemaklik en gerieflik te maak. Goeie waarde vir geld. Hulle het ook 'n klein restaurant wat definitief aanbeveel kan word. Baie dankie vir uitstekende diens.

Pragtige natuurskoon. Voldoende akkommodasie.

Ons het 'n plek gesoek waarin ons kon voorberei vir die Shipwreck-staptoer. Die platform wat ons gehuur het was die ideale fasiliteit. Die restaurant was ook oop oor die Desembervakansie maar ons het dit nie geweet nie. Ons sou dit vir seker beter benut het. Dalk moet dit duideliker gestel word op die webwerf. Ek sal graag wil teruggaan en vir 'n langer tydperk gaan bly.

Beautiful scenery. Adequate accommodation.

We were looking for a place in which to prepare for the Shipwreck walking tour. The platform we rented was the ideal facility. The restaurant was also open over the December holidays but we didn't know that. We would have made better use of it for sure. Perhaps this should be stated more clearly on the website. I would love to go back and stay for a longer period of time.

Onspanning in 'n pragtige omgewing, selfs met 'n 2-jarige.

Ek beveel Mansfield Game Reserve aan bo enige ander "plekkie by die see". Die omgewing is pragtig, onspannend en so veilig, selfs vir my 2-jarige seuntjie. Die diens is fantasties en die "Rangers" is baie vriendelik.

Lekker stil, rustig en 'n gerieflike kampplek, ver genoeg van verkeer en mense af om nie gepla te word nie.

Dit was vir ons 'n oornagpunt op pad Durban toe, dus was 'n goeie nagrus baie belangrik. Ons is vriendelik ontvang en nadat ons ingeteken het, moes ons nog 'n klein entjie ry om by die kampplek te kom. Ons het tent opgeslaan en kan nie kla oor die fasiliteite nie. Dit was 'n Maandag en die kampplek was so te sê leeg, dus lekker stil en rustig. Dit was ver genoeg van mense en die pad af dat ons nie gepla was deur enige lawaai of enigsins onveilig gevoel het nie.

Nice and quiet, peaceful and a comfortable campsite, far enough away from traffic and people not to be bothered.

It was an overnight stop for us on the way to Durban, so a good night's rest was very important. We were kindly received and after checking in, we had to drive a short distance to get to the campsite. We pitched a tent and can't complain about the facilities. It was a Monday and the campsite was practically empty, so nice and quiet. It was far enough away from people and the road that we weren't bothered by any noise or felt unsafe at all.
