Hi Elardus, Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re delighted you enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere, cosy chalets, and beautiful views, even in the heart of winter. It was such a pleasure meeting you, and we truly appreciate your friendly demeanour and interest in the history of Kaalbooi. Hearing your own connection to its story made your visit even more special for us. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon. Kind regards, Hans & Cheryl

What a paradise! Cheryl is a fantastic hostess and made us feel so at home. The tent is comfortable and despite the cold we slept cozy and warm. (It didn't bother us that the inside of the tent looked different than in the photos. On the contrary, I think it was better. Cheryl explained that there was a problem with a mini-tornado that hit the tent.) A lot of effort was put into dinner. Thank you for the fireplace that was lit especially for us. The burgers were juicy and we can recommend it. Lovely hiking trail. We will definitely go again!

Wat 'n paradys! Cheryl is 'n fantastiese gasvrou en het ons so tuis laat voel. Die tent is gerieflik en t.s.v. die koue het ons knus en warm geslaap. (Dit het ons nie gepla dat die tent binne anders lyk as op die foto's nie. Inteendeel, ek dink dit was beter. Cheryl het verduidelik dat daar 'n probleem was met 'n mini-tornado wat die tent getref het.) Baie moeite is gedoen met aandete. Dankie vir die kaggel wat spesiaal vir ons aangesteek is. Die burgers was sappig en ons kan dit aanbeveel. Lieflike staproete. Ons sal beslis weer gaan!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was such a pleasure to have you stay at Rocky Drift. I am also so glad that you felt at home, that is always my goal. Thank you also for your understanding regarding the tent, I am glad you still found it comfortable and cozy, especially now that we have added an electric blanket to the tent facilities! I appreciate the compliment about the dinner and fireplace – it was my pleasure to make it special for you. I look forward to seeing you again for another peaceful getaway and a walk in nature. Safe travels and greetings until next time! Ooh... it was a lovely surprise to have Willem and Louise here again – especially to tackle the Cappi Waterfall hike on Father’s Day, how special! Greetings Cheryl

Baie dankie vir julle pragtige resensie! Dit was so lekker om julle by Rocky Drift te kon bly. Ek is ook so bly dat julle tuis gevoel het, dis altyd my doel. Dankie ook vir julle begrip rondom die tent, ek’s bly julle het dit steeds gemaklik en knus gevind het, veral nou dat ons ’n elektriese kombers by die tentgeriewe gevoeg het! Ek waardeer die kompliment oor die aandete en kaggel – dit was my plesier om dit vir julle spesiaal te maak. Ek sien uit daarna om julle weer te sien vir nog ‘n rustige wegbreek en ‘n stap in die natuur. Veilige reis en groete tot volgende keer! Ooh... dit was n heerlike verassing om Willem en Louise weer hier te hê – veral om die Cappi-watervalstaproete aan te durf op Vadersdag, hoe spesiaal! Groete Cheryl

A blissfully peaceful 3-day stay. Our expectations were far exceeded. Reed Cottage is small but well appointed. The outdoor wood-fired hot tub overlooking the creek is a lovely extra, as is the on-site restaurant. Compliments to the owners for the personal attention to the guests and the grounds.

'n Salige rustige 3-dae verblyf. Ons verwagtinge is ver oortref. Reed Cottage is klein, maar goed ingerig. Die houtvuurwarmbad buite met 'n uitsig op die spruit is 'n heerlike ekstra, ook die restaurant op die perseel. Komplimente aan die eienaars vir die persoonlike aandag aan die gaste en aan die terrein.

Thank you for your kind review. We are really glad that you were able to relax and enjoy our piece of heaven, as we like to call it. We are so glad that you were able to use the hot tub and appreciate the beautiful views of the valley stream. We are also glad that you enjoyed the restaurant and our homemade أنتس.

Dankie, vir jou vriendelike resensie. Ons is regtig bly dat jy kon ontspan en ons stukkie hemel, soos ons dit graag noem, kon geniet. Ons is so bly dat jy die warmbad kon gebruik en die pragtige uitsigte oor die valleistroom waardeer het. Ons is ook bly dat jy die restaurant en ons tuisgemaakte أنتس geniet het.

Nice getaway from the city. The accommodation was clean and neat.

Lekker wegbreek van die stad af. Verblijf was skoon en netjies.

It's idyllic here! It's really nice at Rocky Drift. It's quiet and the sound of the water relaxes you completely. Will definitely go there again.

Hier is dit idillies! Dit is baie lekker by Rocky Drift. Dis stil en die geluid van die water ontspan jou heeltemal. Sal definitief weer soontoe gaan.

A little paradise! A place to unwind. Tranquil, relaxed, perfect hosts. What a little paradise! A dream of relaxation when you need to release stress from the fast city life. The unit was clean, comfortably furnished, spacious and private. Plus, they have a cafe area that serves meals and drinks to enjoy at leisure. The hosts were the perfect hosts, friendly, helpful and so accommodating. This haven is really a home away from home. I highly recommend this nature reserve! Thank you once again.
