Recommended for those driving by and wanting a quiet, safe night. This is now one of the SANPark sites that is still well managed. Friendly and professional people you come into contact with. Lots of wildlife in the park that looks good in the area. Keeps the site clean and everything works very well. Well done.

Aan te beveel vir die mense wat daar verbyry en 'n rustige, veilige nag wil hê. Dit is nou een van die SANPark plekke wat nog goed bestuur word. Vriendelike en professionele mense wat jy mee in aanraking kom. Baie wild in die park wat goed lyk in die omgewing. Bly plek skoon en alles werk baie goed. Welgedaan.

Wonderful view and starry sky in a beautiful park. Certainly, the scenery and view from the chalet are beautiful.

Wonderlike uitsig en sterrehemel in 'n pragtige park. Beslis, die natuurskoon en uitsig van die chalet is pragtig.

Very pleasant. We will go again. Roads need urgent attention, please. We had a great stay, thank you. Beautiful animals in abundance. The main roads are good, but the secondary roads are the worst I have ever experienced in a SANPARK - tragic. Monkeys and baboons can be a problem.

Baie aangenaam. Ons gaan weer. Paaie benodig dringend aandag, asb. Ons het baie lekker gebly, dankie. Pragtige diere in oorvloed. Die hoofpaaie is goed, maar die sekondêre paaie is die swakste wat ek nog beleef het in 'n SANPARK - tragies. Ape en bobbejane kan 'n probleem wees.

Short visit (2 nights). The nature in the park begs for another visit. Accommodation in a detached unit. Well equipped with a few maintenance issues here and there. Space in the loft is very limited and is probably unbearably hot in high summer. The view of pools in the river is very beautiful. The park has dirt roads that are very slippery in places after rain. The entrance to the gate is 16 km from large water pools after rain. Keep an eye on the weather or bring big wheels. Good variety of game. The park boasts many habitat zones. Springbok caper boats are very entertaining. The biggest negative is that the staff is focused on tourism and does not have a good knowledge of nature. The active group of honorary rangers makes up for it. Night drives are only done if there is enough demand. Lilydale is small, so bring your own group of 6 with you otherwise there will be no drive.

Kort besoek (2 nagte). Die natuur in die park vra vir nog 'n besoek. Verblyf in alleenstaande eenheid. Goed toegerus met hier en daar 'n onderhoudsprobleempie. Ruimte in die loft is baie beperk en is waarskynlik onhoudbaar warm in hoogsommer. Die uitsig oor poele in die rivier is baie mooi. Die park het grondpaaie wat plek-plek baie glibberig is na reën. Die toegang tot die hek is 16 km van groot waterpoele na reën. Hou die weer dop of bring groot wiele. Goeie verskeidenheid wild. Die park spog met vele habitatzones. Springbokke se kapperjolle is baie vermaaklik. Die grootste negatief is dat die personeel toegespits is op toerisme en nie 'n goeie kennis van die natuur het nie. Die aktiewe groep ere-veldwagters maak op daarvoor. Nagritte word slegs gedoen indien daar genoeg aanvraag is. Lilydale is klein, dus bring jou eie groep van 6 saam anders gaan daar nie 'n rit wees nie.

Hospitality and cleanliness. We were very impressed by the hospitality of the staff - both at reception and at the restaurant. Yes, there were braai facilities available. However, if you brought your own food, there was no crockery and cutlery. This is understandable! However, a communal kitchen with a microwave and washing-up facilities would improve the rest camp facility. There you could prepare your own meals, if need be.

Just didn't know about the SANParks surcharge. Extra from your LekkeSlaap rate. Great with smaller children!

Net nie geweet van die Sanparke bybetaling nie. Ekstra van jou LekkeSlaap tarief. Lekker met kleiner kinders!

Lilydale was an unexpected gift. What a great experience. The entire Mokala reserve exceeded our expectations. Lilydale made the experience so much better. To have the wonderful view of the river all the time. The house was neat and had everything you need. I would definitely recommend it.

Lilydale was 'n onverwagte geskenk. Wat 'n wonderlike ervaring. Die hele Mokala-reservaat het ons verwagtinge oortref. Lilydale het die ervaring soveel beter gemaak. Om die hele tyd die wonderlike uitsig oor die rivier te hê. Die huisie was netjies en het alles gehad wat mens benodig. Ek sal dit definitief aanbeveel.
