Quiet and tranquil environment to escape the city. Very lovely getaway, offers a little enchanted forest inside the property with a walking trail. We spent Saturday morning exploring here. We made a lovely braai in the afternoon and watched as the sun went down from our patio. Sidenote, there is no television; that didn't bother us, but I think some guests would want to know this beforehand.

Quiet environment. Pleasant time spent. Location not very ideal. Cozy Wood Cabin – May 2025 Rating: (3 out of 5 stars) We recently stayed at Cozy Wood Cabin for a long weekend father-son getaway from May 1-5, 2025. The log cabin is full of character and is set in a peaceful natural setting. The braai area and general layout made for some nice outdoor moments. The owners were friendly and helpful upon our arrival, and when we reported blocked drains the next day, it was quickly and thoroughly sorted out by a maintenance worker – something we appreciated. However, there are several aspects that could be improved. The cabin is close to a work area (about 20 meters from a shed), and the use of tools such as grinding wheels on a Sunday morning disturbed the expected silence. The photos on the website also suggested a more luxurious and fully-decorated place than we found – with less furniture and no plants as shown. Minor maintenance issues also stood out: a loose door handle, a faulty multi-plug, and a microwave button that kept falling out. The wiring of one air conditioner seemed unsafe, without proper insulation – a possible fire hazard. There were also clear indications of possible rodent activity in the cabin. At night, we could repeatedly hear noises from the twin-bedded room, which strongly suggested mice or rats running between the walls. This was disturbing, especially in the silence of the night, and affected our sleep. Another problem was the septic tank just outside the cabin, which on the last night gave off an unbearable smell. This seriously disrupted our sleep. On the morning of departure, the power went out at around 08:20. The owner previously said a generator would come on in 15 minutes – but it didn’t. Water pressure was low and we couldn’t wash dishes or shower properly. Although the cabin has great potential and we did enjoy the nature and outdoors, we feel that with better attention to maintenance and the guest experience, this place could be truly special. We hope the owners take this feedback to heart, and that future guests will have a better experience.

Rustige omgewing. Aangename tyd spandeer. Ligging nie baie ideaal. Cozy Wood Cabin – Mei 2025 Gradering: (3 uit 5 sterre) Ons het onlangs by Cozy Wood Cabin oornag vir ’n langnaweek pa-en-seun-wegbreek van 1 tot 5 Mei 2025. Die houtcabin is vol karakter en geleë in ’n rustige natuuromgewing. Die braai-area en die algemene uitleg het bygedra tot ’n paar lekker buite-oomblikke. Die eienaars was vriendelik en hulpvaardig met ons aankoms, en toe ons die volgende dag verstopte dreine rapporteer, is dit vinnig en deeglik uitgesorteer deur ’n instandhoudingswerker – iets wat ons waardeer het. Daar is egter verskeie aspekte wat verbeter kan word. Die cabin is naby aan ’n werksarea (ongeveer 20 meter vanaf ’n skuur), en die gebruik van gereedskap soos slypwiele op ’n Sondagoggend het die verwagte stilte versteur. Die foto’s op die webtuiste se webwerf het ook ’n meer luukse en volledig-versierde plek voorgestel as wat ons aangetref het – met minder meubels en geen plante soos gewys nie. Klein instandhoudingskwessies het ook uitgestaan: ’n los deurhandvatsel, ’n foutiewe multi-plug, en ’n mikrogolfknoppie wat telkens uitval. Die bedrading van een lugversorger het onveilig gelyk, sonder behoorlike isolasie – moontlik ’n brandgevaar. Daar was ook duidelike aanduidings van moontlike knaagdieraktiwiteit in die cabin. Snags kon ons herhaaldelik geluide hoor uit die kamer met twee enkelbeddens, wat sterk daarop dui dat muise of rotte tussen die mure hardloop. Dit was steurend, veral in die stilte van die nag, en het ons slaap geraak. Nog ’n probleem was die septiese tenk net buite die cabin, wat op die laaste aand ’n ondraaglike reuk afgegee het. Dit het ons slaap ernstig belemmer. Op die oggend van vertrek het die krag omstreeks 08:20 afgegaan. Die eienaar het voorheen gesê ’n kragopwekker sou binne 15 minute aanskakel – maar dit het nie gebeur nie. Waterdruk was laag en ons kon nie behoorlik skottelgoed was of stort nie. Alhoewel die cabin goeie potensiaal het en ons wel die natuur en buitelewe geniet het, voel ons dat met beter aandag aan instandhouding en die gaste-ervaring, hierdie plek werklik besonders kan wees. Ons hoop die eienaars neem hierdie terugvoer ter harte, en dat toekomstige gaste ’n beter ervaring sal hê.

Quiet if you just want to sit and/or read. Recommended if you really just want to sit. No TV, no activities and an incredible amount of ants and thorns! Christine is very friendly! We enjoyed her enthusiasm. However, feel that what we expected is not what materialized.

Rustig as jy net wil sit en/of lees. Aanbeveel as jy regtig net wil sit. Geen TV, niks aktiwiteite en ongelooflik baie miere en dorings! Christine is baie vriendelik! Ons het haar entoesiasme geniet. Voel egter dat dit wat ons verwag het nie is wat gematerialiseer het nie.

Quiet, tree-filled atmosphere for relaxation. There was a double booking which we were only informed about in the morning. However, Christine tried her best to make up for it by offering an extra night and a complimentary breakfast. It is ideal for people who just want to rest, read and relax. The wooden house has a thatched roof and air conditioning. Nice veranda overlooking the trees. Peaceful environment.

Rustige, boomryke atmosfeer vir ontspanning. Daar was 'n dubbelbespreking waarvan ons eers die oggend ingelig is. Christine het egter haar bes probeer om op te maak daarvoor deur 'n ekstra nag aan te bied en 'n komplimentêre ontbyt. Dis ideaal vir persone wat net wil rus, lees en ontspan. Die houthuisie het 'n grasdak en lugreëling. Lekker stoep wat uitkyk op die bome. Rustige omgewing.
