Relaxed with the sound of the river in our ears the whole time. We had a lovely walk. We experienced a friendly welcome from start to finish. Lizelle went out of her way to make our stay enjoyable.

We will do a visit to the treehouse again, comfortable and with everything you need. Markon had a great weekend away. The road was a bit muddy after the heavy rain, but we were able to drive comfortably in most places. Animals came to visit the house and the river near the tree house in the evenings is beautiful.

We stayed in the Tree Lodge which was really different and so charming. It was a wonderful weekend. The staff really went out of their way to assist and the venue is beautiful.

Beautiful venue. Absolutely beautiful. Staff went out of their way to make our stay comfortable. The only problem is the dirt road, which is not mentioned on their listing and was a bit challenging for smaller cars. We also had one family member on a bike, which he dropped in the very soft sand.

Breathtaking retreat. It was a great recharge getaway. I will highly recommend it for a group retreat; they have the best hiking trails with breathtaking views. I loved that there are no TVs where we booked (unit), which gives one time with family. I will also recommend they put more containers (food), especially because we opted for self-catering (there were not enough containers for our food preparations).
