"The best lodge in Nelspruit. Great atmosphere with a lovely swimming pool and great live entertainment. Lovely newly renovated rooms with aircon and luxurious ensweet bathrooms. Bar affordable with fast and friendly service."

"We enjoyed a relaxing day out swimming, having a few cold ones and enjoying the day with our family. The pool water was awesome, the slides were great, but man, the food was out of this world."

"Great service. Good food. Beautiful Lodge. Went to watch the rugby there, will definitely return."
