    Great stay, But Fishing wasnt good & Lake levels were very low & dirty. The establishment was very nice, staff excellent. We just had a problem with bats in the cottage, dropping onto our beds at night. Other wildlife was awesome & the open air...

    The accomodation was super for the family with 3 adults and a 5 year old. The safari tours were wonderful and both catered to what my grand son wanted to see. Highly recommended for a family holiday 👌

    Le cottage est ravissant. Nous avons passé deux soirées au boma à écouter le Bush. La promenade en bateau fut agréable même si les animaux sont restés à l’abri du vent. Un grand merci à notre guide.
