Nice and quiet place along the Orange River. Had a great time camping. We camped for 1 night. The campsite was clean and neat.

Lekker rustige plekkie langs die Oranje rivier. Het lekker gekamp. Ons het vir 1 aand gekamp. Kampplekkie was skoon en netjies.

Nice people. Nice place, people are hospitable and friendly. The management makes a lot of effort.

Lekker mense. Lekker plek, mense is gasvry en vriendelik. Die bestuur doen baie moeite.

Loved our stay. Loved our half-day trip down the river with Joseph; he is a very kind and experienced man. Just a pity we had to leave the day before as the water was rising fast due to the heavy rainfall. Really loved our stay.

An oasis on the banks of the Orange River! We had a lovely stay camping with kids. We would recommend that there is a 5km rafting experience for families with small children, who would like to raft in the morning before crossing the border to Namibia. We were rushed to get going after 10km rafting and would have preferred to have someone to eat before we had to rush off. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the pool was an absolute blessing after a long day of driving.

Beautiful scenery and good hospitality, but poor bathroom facilities and no trash cans. I recently visited the Orange River Rafting Lodge and have mixed feelings about my experience. The scenery was absolutely beautiful and made the trip worthwhile. The bar area was also a highlight with a cozy atmosphere and excellent hospitality. However, the camping area was disappointing. The bathrooms were in poor condition, and many of the lights did not work in the evening, making it difficult to use the facilities. Furthermore, there were no trash cans in the camping areas, which was very inconvenient. Although the overall stay was enjoyable, thanks to the scenery and friendly staff, the condition of the bathrooms does not justify the daily rates. It is a beautiful place, but it definitely needs renovations to make it worthwhile.

Pragtige natuurskoon en goeie gasvryheid, maar swak badgeriewe en geen asblikke. Ek het onlangs die Orange River Rafting Lodge besoek en het gemengde gevoelens oor my ervaring. Die natuurskoon was absoluut pragtig en het die reis die moeite werd gemaak. Die kroegarea was ook ’n hoogtepunt met ’n gesellige atmosfeer en uitstekende gasvryheid. Die kamparea het egter teleurgestel. Die badkamers was in ’n swak toestand, en baie van die ligte het nie in die aand gewerk nie, wat dit moeilik gemaak het om die geriewe te gebruik. Verder was daar geen asblikke in die kampareas nie, wat baie ongerieflik was. Alhoewel die algehele verblyf lekker was, danksy die natuurskoon en vriendelike personeel, regverdig die toestand van die badkamers nie die daaglikse tariewe nie. Dis ’n mooi plek, maar daar is beslis opknappings nodig om dit die moeite werd te maak.

Great resting place. The lodge was lovely. We had a great time camping along the Orange River. The management team was friendly and very helpful. The camping facilities are clean and nicely furnished and you can rest very well. Would recommend the place.

Heerlike rusplek. Die lodge was heerlik. Ons het vreeslik lekker gekamp langs die Oranjerivier. Die bestuurspan was vriendelik en baie behulpsaam. Die kampgeriewe skoon en is lekker ingerig en 'n mens kan baie lekker rus. Sal die plek aanbeveel.

Good stopover place. The hosts were welcoming and took trouble in ensuring we had a nice dinner.
