Lake-house cabin is situated in a Wild Life Estate on the banks of the Olifants River leading into the Witbank dam. This is ideally for the enthusiastic fisherman as you step out of the cabin directly onto the jetty. The cabin is solar powered so your stay will not be interrupted by load shedding. A gas geyser ensures that theres always enough hot water. The WIFI is uncapped. It has a small kitchenette with a dishwasher, microwave, 2 plate stove and mini oven, snappy chef and an electric frying pan. Its a one bedroom (1 x king sized bed) one bathroom unit with an additional queen size Murphy bed in an open plan area. It also has a sleeper couch which can accommodate one extra adult or two children. For Heating we have an indoor fire place in the main bedroom as well as an inverter aircon. All beds are fitted with duck downs, extra blankets and fleece throws so even during the coldest of nights my guests are always warm and cozy. The queen size bed has an electric under blanket fitted during winter months only.
I love sharing our hidden gem with fishing enthusiasts and guest’s requiring peace and quiet time in nature.
We are in a wild life estate with free roaming game. Giraffe, Eland and Zebra all roam the estate freely. We have two fantastic restaurants on site namely the Surf Shack and the Sand bar. Both these restaurants offer water activities but are unfortunately only open on weekends.
