    I only have great things to say about this place. When we arrived by motorcycle it was very very hot. The manager upgraded us to a little chalet so that it would be cooler and more comfortable for us. The whole property is beautiful and well...

    We had the most phenomenal one night stay as a family of 4 at Avoca River Cabins. The cabin was right on the water with the most stunning views. Gorgeous braai area and everything you need for self catering. Absolute gem of a place!
