It was nice.
It is ideal for a weekend getaway. We caught big fish. Very nice stay. The dam has receded a lot, we are aware of the heat wave and water problems. Just warn visitors to bring kazibu for sun. Where water lies shallow, there is no shade.

Quiet and nice.
We were looking for a place, close to Pretoria, but in the bush. Everything was pretty neat, and "rustic". We had a really nice stay. All inquiries were answered quickly. There is enough space for walking or cycling. We would consider going again.

We had a nice stay, the power was just off and there is a water leak in the bathroom, so do.

Very private, only people at the dam. Lots of firewood. Plain, but very good value for money.
Only small problem is that the canoe in the photos is not safe to use.

Thank you, it was a really pleasant weekend even though it was wet and muddy from the lot of rain.
Everything neat and clean. Thank you Johan for going out of your way to accommodate us with generators if we needed them but the solar system was 100% sufficient even though there was no sun! Will definitely go again and the fish are biting! Would only request that thorn trees need some trimming as they made fishing difficult and roof in spare room leaked due to the lot of rain! Other than that, everything was neat.

Quiet and peaceful if you just want to get away from the city.
Very quiet, enough wood for the winter cold and barbecue, and hanging out around the fire. Enjoyed it a lot. Will definitely go again in the summer for bird watching.

Little children's dream holiday.
It's the first time in 20 years that we don't get up with a sore body during vacation. We slept great. The children fished during the day and night. The fish are biting nicely and the fish you pull out looks in good condition. They mostly walked barefoot and only here and there pulled a thorn out of their foot when they strayed from the walking areas. I have never played as much Rummicup as there, my kids loved it. There is a small leak in the boat but if you sit on your knees and feet then your stern stays dry but it might be something that can be looked into. The brukkie / dock's boards need some attention and the whole house needs a good cleaning. There is also a plant growing over the path down to the pond that needs to be removed. It's in the way when you run after a biting fishing rod in the dark. Of course it's in the woods so be considerate of unwelcome guests like our brown house snake that was waiting for us in the kitchen cupboard and the whole farm's flies that join in for dinner if it's before 6pm. But all in all we had a great time and sang songs around the bon fire and fished, boated, cycled, walked, saw cattle, the most beautiful moonrise over the still water that reflects the moon. It was delicious and very special with precious family moments. I would recommend it to anyone who isn't afraid of a few bugs.

Ons was redelik teleurgesteld.

We were quite disappointed.
The Dam House needs attention. The hessian at the front door was torn. The drawers in the kitchen and rooms are dusty and smelly. The cracked glass top in the kitchen is unacceptable. The roof in the room with 2 single beds is leaking. There are no comfortable chairs for outside. We were forced to use the generator while we actually went to seek out bushveld silence. All in all, R1000 per night is hopelessly too much for what Die Damhuis offers. I would not recommend the accommodation to friends. Sorry John.

Break away and Enjoy
An incredible cremation, beautifully rested, clean with everything one needs. Definitely recommend for a friends weekend. Although the road is close, the noise is not that bad and completely acceptable. Definitely on my list for a future visit.

Great weekend getaway.
The Damhuis is well furnished, tidy and good value for money. We were able to rest wonderfully and the children really enjoyed the pond with canoe. We struggled with the water and power, but Johan was immediately available to fix everything. Maybe take drinking water with you. Will definitely want to go again.

We had a great stay, although there was load shedding it didn't bother us, because the house is equipped with solar power. Will be happy to visit Die Damhuis again in the future and recommend to others.

It was wonderful to be able to relax in nature.
The Damhuis is a nice getaway spot for people who want to get out of the city and don't want to drive too far. It is affordable and well appointed and meets one's basic needs. The fact that the dam is also within walking distance is a plus. The traffic is audible from the road and can be disturbing for those looking for absolute silence. Otherwise, we can happily recommend it.

Was an excellent weekend not too far to drive.
We were received with open arms. The house has everything you need. There was more than enough fire wood for three nights. The children played on a new raft on the pond and rode in the canoe when they weren't manning the fishing rods. I would recommend Die Damhuis anytime and we as a family would definitely go there again for a weekend.

Very peaceful, relaxing and a wonderful time away.
Nice place inside, water level was a bit low, but that's just nature, nice fish caught, catfish and carp, would recommend anytime, just not sure for little ones, think thorns will bother and not much for children to occupy themselves with , for adults and couples, fantastic. Thank you guys.

It is the ideal place for a weekend getaway with a very peaceful atmosphere. The owners received us kindly and hospitably. The unit has everything needed. We really enjoyed the board games and were also lucky to pull out quite a few fish. Despite the road running past the farm, it is for sure a place I would recommend.
