Ready to go again!

Amazing fishing weekend at Die Vette Vis! Wow, what an incredible weekend we had at Die Vette Vis in Oranjeville! Despite the weather throwing us a curveball with some extremely windy conditions, our experience was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the beautiful setting and the immaculate accommodations. The house was spotless and fully equipped with everything we could possibly need—truly a home away from home! We felt relaxed and comfortable, which made our fishing adventure that much better. Sure, we had a long walk down due to the dam water levels, but it was thrilling to test our fitness while enjoying the picturesque scenery along the way! Now, let’s talk fishing! The wind may have been fierce, but it didn’t deter us one bit! In fact, it added an exhilarating twist to our fishing experience. Each cast brought its own thrill, and we were beyond delighted with our catches. We had a magnificent time, and it was the perfect mix of challenge and reward. Whether they were big or small, every fish we caught felt like a victory, and we loved every moment of it. Overall, our weekend at Die Vette Vis was the perfect blend of relaxation, fun, and adventure. If you're looking for a slice of paradise to fish, unwind, and create unforgettable memories, look no further! We can’t wait to return for another round of fishing.

Baie dankie vir ’n goeie beskrywing van die fasiliteit. Dit was wonderlik om julle almal te ontmoet. Veral, baie, baie dankie vir die verjaarsdag bederf, dit was voortreflik.

Julle is altyd welkom by Die Vette Vis en ons sien julle in die nuwe jaar.

Goed uiteengezette akkommodasie met 'n uitstekende ligging.

Akkommodasie het alles wat nodig is met goeie uitleg. Asemrowende uitsig met baie mooi sonsondergang. Dam lekker diep om groot karp te vang. Behulpsame en vriendelike gasheer.

Lekker plek vir hengel en rus, baie gerieflik vir 'n gesin.

Die huis het alles wat mens nodig het, pragtige dam-uitsig, lekker bordspeletjies. Die dishwasher, wasmasjien en tumble dryer is 'n lekker aanwins. Dit is ook 'n goeie plek vir visvang, baie vis en troeteldiere is welkom. Die hengel area is baie naby die huis gelee en daar is ook 'n boot launch area. Sal vir seker weer hier besoek!

Excellent, friendly, great views and fishing, peaceful.

Absolutely marvellous! Accommodation is right on the Vaal River. Fishing was great! Our teen and puppy were exceptionally happy. Very peaceful. It's a very small town. We visited 2 pubs, Vertoef and Route 73. The owners were very hospitable. And our host at the accommodation, Andre, was so friendly. He made our stay memorable. Such a wonderful, friendly soul.

Oulike plek.

Lekke visgevang, maar kort skadu by dam. Ek wil die hele dag kan visvang en nie net voor of na sonopkoms of -ondergang nie. Dit is 'n oulike plekkie, maar lugversorging is nodig in die area. Sonkrag is fantasties, dankie.

Cute place.

Nice fish caught, but short shade at pond. I want to be able to fish all day and not just before or after sunrise or sunset. It's a cute little place, but air conditioning is needed in the area. Solar power is awesome, thank you.

Verwagtinge is oortref.

Die eienaar is baie vriendelik. Sal enige tyd weer van die verblyf gebruik maak. Ek het Vrydag deur Oranjeville gery. Ons visvang klub het ons senior liga die naweek gehad en ek het verblyf op kort kennisgewing nodig gehad. Ek het op die plek afgekom en op versoek was hy beskikbaar. Ek is bly ek het die juweel ontdek. Sal definitief weer van die akkommodasie gebruik maak as ek slaapplek nodig het vir die visvang by die Vaaldam. Of selfs 'n naweek saam vriende of familie hier deurbring. Die huis is op die oewer en daar kan lekker gevish word.

Expectations were exceeded.

The owner is very friendly. Will use the accommodation again anytime. I drove through Oranjeville on Friday. Our fishing club had our senior league this weekend and I needed accommodation at short notice. I came across the place and on request he was available. I'm glad I discovered the gem. Will definitely use the accommodation again if I need a place to sleep for fishing at the Vaal Dam. Or even spend a weekend here with friends or family. The house is on the shore and there is good fishing.

From Day 1 we had a fantastic stay. The peace and quiet are amazing. The accommodation is top class, clean, tidy a home away from home. The grounds are always kept in excellent condition. Owner Andre has upgraded the solar system which allowed us to not be phased in any way with load shedding. I would recommend Die Vette Vis any day. We will definitely be returning.

Awesome, very comfortable, spotless, friendly owners, family environment.

Andre and his wife, the owners, were so accommodating. They even built a wheelchair ramp for my mom before we arrived. We were welcomed by a friendly Andre and shown around before he left us to enjoy our holiday. The only thing we missed was a swimming pool as it got really hot. However the dam is there with a really well built jetty for launching our boat easily. Will most def be going back again. Thanks Andre.

So glad to know that the wheelchair ramp made it easy for your mom to move around. it is now a permanent fixture. We enjoyed meeting your family. See you again soon.

Quiet and relaxing.

Exceeded our expectations even though the fishing was bad. Will return in summer as the waterfront is perfect for fishing.

We went for 3 days to Die Vette Vis and we were amazed at the excellent service we received!

The owners went out of their way to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Providing more than expected at a holiday house! If I could give 10 stars I would. Excellent host and such friendliness, you are an amazing person and we will definitely be booking your place again when the weather is warmer.

Very pleasant weekend.

Die Vette Vis was amazing van begin tot einde. Ons het baie lekker gekuier en gebly, visgevang ook. Dis so 'n rustige atmosfeer. Hulle is vreeslik vriendelik, laat mens onmiddellik welkom voel. Baie dankie André, julle sien ons definitief weer.

Rustig, goed geleë en netjies.

Andre, was baie vriendelik en het vinnig gehelp as daar 'n vraag was, Die slap plek was baie gerieflik en skoon. Die kuierarea was lekker en groot genoeg. Die hele plek is lekker groot so die kinders kon lekker rondhardloop and speel op die gras. Bote is welkom, wees maar net versigtig vir die klippe in die water (bodem). Dankie Andre.

I cannot fault this venue. View, location, accommodation, pet friendly and safety is all outstanding. From our arrival on Friday 19 March till we departed on Monday 22 we could not complain about anything. The host went out of his way to make our stay as comfortable as can be. The view of the dam is magnificent. I would recommend this place to everyone.

Rustig.

Ons was vriendelik gegroet en rondgewys. Die huis is perfek vir ’n lekker wegbreek uit die stad. Daar is ’n mooi stoep waar jy kan braai en die sonsondergang kan geniet. Die huis is naby die water geleë, met ’n toilet by die dam. Beveel Die Vette Vis definitief aan.

Amazing visvangplekkie.

Baie baie dankie vir 'n amazing vakansie, Andre en sy vrou is so gasvry en daar is alles wat 'n mens sou nodig hê, ons het ons tent opgeslaan onder by die water, en die kinders het die groot oop spasie en visvang vreeslik baie geniet, die vette vis is skoon, netjies en baie veilig. Sal vir seker weer daar gaan kuier.

Will visit there again for sure.

Alles was skoon en netjies en baie rustig!

Die eienaar was te alle tye baie vriendelik en het ons hartlik verwelkom en wat ek opreg kan sê nadat hy ons verwelkom het, het ons hom nie weer gesien nie tot en met ons vertrek toe ek weer die sleutels oorhandig het, en dit is wat 'n mens (as gaste) verwag, so weereens ons waardeer sulke gedrag/vriendelikheid van hom!

Everything was clean and tidy and very peaceful!

The owner was very friendly at all times and gave us a warm welcome and what I can honestly say after he welcomed us we didn't see him again until we left when I handed over the keys again and that's what ' n one (as guests) expects, so once again we appreciate such behavior/kindness from him!
