    The spot hosts a great view of the surrounding mountains, being quite high on a hill. The staff cleans the entire property daily. They are very friendly as well as the hosts who are helpful and great communicators.

Andre and Ursula Eden
Very secure and peaceful each unit has its own view over looking the Sabie Valley, There is an all weather road (concrete) which is lit up at night leading from the R536, The entrance is well sign posted. The Chalets are situated approximately one kilometre into a natural bushed area.
Loves the outdoors, reading, entertaining and spending time with family
Within easy reach of the Panorame Route and the Kruger Park. The adventure centre for those keen on river rafting, hiking, quad biking, and many more is 3 kilometres from the main gate.
