Fort needs maintenance. Facilities are adequate. Enjoyed the tranquility and isolation. Caretaker was helpful.

Outstanding. Views are breathtaking. Was great. Just make sure you are prepared for any emergencies, i.e. flat tyres.

Will definitely visit again, but come better prepared for punctures. Comfortable, remote, clean and peaceful. Has all the basic amenities in terms of running water and solar power, but take your own drinking water and food. The place was locked up when we got there, even though they said the key was in the door. The manager drove out 47 km to assist us, but by that time, the off-duty Sanparks Ranger helped us get in. Good service all round. The place is remote and spare tyres and tyre puncture repair sealant and kit are a must. I had 2 punctures over the weekend. Make sure you go to reception first, and not just go to the guest house.

Visit was wonderful. Beautiful Place. Visit was wonderful. Beautiful Place. Bad mosquitoes so you can't sleep at all. Please let them know to pour lamp oil down their drains. There is open ventilation for their drains.

Kuier was heerlik. Pragtige Plek. Kuier was heerlik. Pragtige Plek. Erge muskiete sodat mens glad nie kan slaap. Laat weet hul asb om lampolie in hul dreine te gooi. Daar is oop ventilasie vir hul dreine.

Nice comfortable stay. Nice space, large kitchen and living room with fireplace for the cold evenings. The showers were unfortunately not too bright, water but cold.

Lekker gemaklike verblyf. Lekker spasie, groot kombuis en sitkamer met kaggel vir die koue aande. Die storte was ongelukkig nie te bright nie, water maar koud.

Not the best travel experience. Arrived at deadman's door. Drove 50 km out of our way because of poor communication. Kitchens poorly equipped, houses not very clean.

Still, peaceful and beautiful. The detached family house was neat and clean. Sufficient bedding and kitchenware. Staff were helpful and friendly. Make sure you shower before 22h00, because then the generator goes off and the water pressure drops. Take a 2nd spare tire with you if you have one. We lost 3 tires in 2 days.

Still, rustig en mooi. Die losstaande familiehuis was netjies en skoon. Genoeg beddegoed en kombuisware. Personeel was behulpsaam en vriendelik. Sorg dat jy voor 22h00 stort, want dan gaan die generator af en die waterdruk val. Vat 'n 2de spaarwiel saam as jy het. Ons het 3 bande verloor in 2 dae.

The fort built of stone offers a unique experience of silence, unity with nature, hear yourself breathing and forget the rest of the world's things exist. Best reached by 4x4, our little Toyota managed to survive the test of stone corrugated iron. The landscape is surreally beautiful, the silence and seclusion are the real reason why we came. Saw many goats. Small plants despite the drought.

Die fort van klip gebou bied 'n eenmalige ondervinding van stilte, eenheid met natuur, hoor jouself asemhaal en vergeet die res van die wêreld se dinge bestaan. Ten beste bereikbaar met 4x4, het ons klein Toyota tog geslaag om die toets van klip sinkplaat te oorleef. Die landskap is surreal mooi, die stilte en afsondering is die eintlike rede waarom ons gekom het. Vele bokke gesien. Kleine plantjies ten spyte van die droogte.
