River Cottage Lodge

This is a magical place! What a privilege to be able to sit and watch wildlife in Kruger Park just across the river. In

Pros: Everything! It was extremely comfortable and spacious and well appointed with a dining table inside for poor weather, as well as a lovely braii dining area and a further small table for breakfast on the terrace outside the kitchen with a view to the river. There was also an amazing hide overlooking the river.

Cons: Nothing - was a little concerned at first by the entrance near a factory but that didn’t matter at all.

Pros: Very good contact with hotel, nice location next to Kruger and Melane gate.

Pros: Th eoutside view was to die for,you get to see animals walking by the river

Cons: The bed was not comfortable,it was making noise

Pros: Welcoming and engaging hosts.An ideal spot before entering the Kruger National Park. Situated on the banks of the Crocodile River with game on the doorstep.

Amazing

Pros: This place is amazing. Quiet, clean and really a home away from home. The room and bathroom are so huge! The kitchen are stocked with everything you need and more. The scenery is to die for! You are phycically on the bank of the Crocodile river overlooking the Kruger Park. With ample wildlife visting daily. The nearest mall is walking distance making it convenient. The staff treats you like family.

Cons: Just loved everything

Very cozy and very nice stay at the Crocodile River close to the Kruger Park !!!!!

Pros: It was an amazing stay! We saw so many animals at the river from the terrace of the lodge. The room was much bigger than we thought and we had a very good bed which was extremy comfortable! It was the lodge in which we slept best during our South Africa trip! We really enjoyed this spacious, clean and cozy accommodation with that amazing river view (= beautiful sunsets and sunrises and plenty of game and birds!!!). We had plenty of space there and we were helped so much by the manager Greg who suggested us a very good and affordable mechanic for our vehicle issues which were solved quickly and for very little costs by this mechanic. Furthermore it was a very cozy and lovely stay at this lodge and it was just a 10 minutes drive to the Malelane Gate of the Kruger Park. We would defenitly come back to this lodge and we will recommend it to our friends.

Clean, friendly staff and excellent location.

Pros: I didn't have breakfast because I left too early every morning

Best welcome ever

Pros: The location right on the river is superb. It’s leafy and quiet, but perhaps the best was the welcome by Greg who rang us to join him and an elephant bull just by the fence munching a tree in the garden. The place for a campfire was very nice and secluded. We had the family cottage which has everything you may wish for. Everything was clean and well maintained. The airconditioner worked very well.

Cons: If I really must be picky, the interior design is a little basic, but who wants to look at the furniture in a wonderful place like this?

It was perfect for our one night stop over

Pros: Enough room for the whole family with enough bathrooms for all

Cons: Didn't stay long enough to find anything we didn't like

Pros: You don't see and hear the city that is just minutes away, you can observe animals on the river. The team is helpful and friendly.
