A small unit, but sufficient for a weekend. Quiet environment. Road is a bit bad to get there but is part of the journey. Drive slowly and take about 30 - 45 minutes from Dullstroom.

Good Day Stephan,
Thank you for your kind words, we know our dirt road is rather uncomfortable for the better part, but we hope that our remote location was well worth the 40min travel on the road. Unfortunately, during the rainy season, it becomes a more challenging adventure.

Fantastic setting, quiet and peaceful natural environment with everything you need in the facility.
We would like to go back again and again, but the access route (which is not the owners fault) to it from Dullstroom is in really bad shape. To say that the road is bad is very relative and when one experiences it first hand even with a normal pickup, you wonder how much damage the sedans sustain during the 1 hour long 22 km dirt road. We would like to refer future visitors because the lovely experience at the accommodation facility but would definitely say that they must have a 4x4. It's a shame that such a wonderful event has been canceled by the local government and municipal issues regarding the road maintenance, be ranked.

The hosts were very welcoming and hospitable. Very peaceful surroundings with beautiful scenery and we were able to have a wonderful walk in the area.
The accommodation is practically equipped and very comfortable. The road there is only quite far from Dullstroom because it is also a difficult dirt road. But precisely because of this also safe. If you have a 4x4 vehicle and like a quiet, peaceful environment and are not bothered about luxury accommodation, then this is a great place. Would definitely recommend if you want to get away from the crazy city rush.

Very calm!
The road to Riverman Cabin is very bad but with the right vehicle it is not a problem. There is wifi but only at the restaurant. The advantage is that one can rest really well. The people are very friendly and the few days we were there we rested as if we had been there for 2 weeks. If you have the right vehicle, it's a great option to get away from it all. The cottages are well equipped. There is everything that is needed. There is a gas stove, so if Eskom is a problem, one can still cook! It is a truly wonderful environment.

Good Day Marie,
Thank you for your review, unfortunately our roads are not the best with little to no maintenance from the local municipalities, a slow and easy drive admiring the surrounding will get you here safe and sound and will be well worth the stay (it also keeps the nice guests like yourselves enjoying the piece and tranquility and the not so nice people out of our fantastic little Hamlet town). Thank you once again and we hope to see you back soon.

Had a great time.
We were received very kindly and the stay was exactly what we expected. We discovered after 9 the first night that the unit had no hot water. Corrected immediately by the owner and the next morning the water was hot. Christmas dinner was excellent value for money and very pleasant atmosphere. Can recommend Riverman Cabin to someone who just wants to relax and calm down. I will not take the road to the resort with a sedan car, but unfortunately the resort owners cannot do anything about it.

Neat but basically
Although the unit is very tidy, the view breathtaking and the surroundings peaceful and quiet, we found the equipment of the unit basic. A more modern shower head, hand soap, loose rugs for the cold cement floor and accessories such as a wine opener (borrowed from our neighbor) and a TV oven would add significantly to the value and comfort. Nevertheless, our experience was pleasant.

It had been very nice and peaceful, no sense of danger or discomfort, Percy the owner and his wife Karin were very hospitable and helpful. We were also spoiled with a boat trip and a lovely day on the dam and enjoyed it immensely. The food in the restaurant was top notch, it was value for money and the location is excellent. The units are far apart so the privacy we wanted was great.
