The lodge was very comfortable for a family of 5.The garden is beautiful and the view on Knysna heads is stunning. Well equipped lodge, even in case of load shedding. Closely situated to the waterfront and all shopping areas. Henriette is very careful. Highly recommended place.

The garden is like something out of a fairy tale and on hot days the shade the trees cast on the patio is a blessing. Our hostess was very friendly, helpful and easy to reach. The beds had good mattresses and quality bedding, the kitchen was well equipped. Anytime again!

Very nice and quiet location. We stayed in the 3 bedroom villa. Was fantastic and very very spacious. Check in procedure very easy as the check out. Knysna was an amazing place. Hosts where so friendly and eager to guide you through the house and explain you everything. Heaters and blankets inside all wardrobes and believe me you can feel the cold at Knysna. Unforgettable experience under the night sky with braai area with everything you need. Thank you so much for your hospitality
