A little paradise! A place to unwind. Tranquil, relaxed, perfect hosts.

What a little paradise! A dream of relaxation when you need to release stress from the fast city life. The unit was clean, comfortably furnished, spacious and private. Plus, they have a cafe area that serves meals and drinks to enjoy at leisure. The hosts were the perfect hosts, friendly, helpful and so accommodating. This haven is really a home away from home. I highly recommend this nature reserve! Thank you once again.

Natuur liefhebbers paradys. Troeteldier vriendelik.

Uitstekend. Net jammer ESKOM krag probleme gegee. Eienaars en bestuur het uit hul pad gegaan om dit gemaklik te maak met kragopwekkers. Verder is dit 'n juweel vir natuurliefhebbers.

Baie skoon en netjies. Elke eenheid beskik oor alles wat mens nodig kan hê. Personeel is baie vriendelik en dis wonderlik om elke oggend 'n skoon, netjiese chalet te hê. Rustige omgewing en naby aan baie aktiwiteite.

We loved being in nature again. Rocky drift doesn't have many chalets so it felt as if we were alone, wonderful. So calming to walk the trail as it goes all the way next to and over the river. Loved it so much that we booked again and this time for the whole family!

Dankie vir 'n vriendelike ontvangs. Dit was heerlik om te ontspan by die kaggelvuur in die aand en in die natuurskoon deur die dag.

Die staproetes wat die bergstroom insluit was 'n aangename verassing veral op die 10 km-roete, met die weggesteekte waterval aan die einde. Ons het die wegbreek so nodig gehad en is verfris met die natuurskoon alhoewel dit nog droog is na die winter, kan nie wag om te sien hoe dit in die laatsomer sal lyk nie.

Thank you for a friendly reception. It was lovely to relax by the fireplace in the evening and in the scenery during the day.

The hiking trails that include the mountain stream were a pleasant surprise especially on the 10 km trail, with the hidden waterfall at the end. We needed the break so much and are refreshed with the scenery even though it is still dry after winter, can't wait to see how it will look in late summer.

Heerlike, rustige naweek tussen pragtige berge.

Baie lekker plek om net af te skakel en die natuur te geniet. Die huisies het alles wat mens nodig het en was baie netjies en skoon. Al wat bietjie gesteur het was 'n klomp scramblers en vierwielfietse vanaf 'n ander plek wat 3 keer deur die plaas gery het die Saterdag. Dit was 'n vieslike geraas deur ander mense wat nie respek het vir gaste wat kom afskakel in die bos nie.

Lovely, peaceful weekend between beautiful mountains.

Very nice place to just switch off and enjoy nature. The houses have everything you need and were very neat and clean. All that disturbed a bit were a bunch of scramblers and quad bikes from another place that drove through the farm 3 times on Saturday. It was a nasty noise by other people who have no respect for guests who come to switch off in the woods.

Ons kon nie die afdraai na die akkommodasie kry nie en die eienaar het nie op navrae gereageer nie.

Ons kon nie die afdraai na die akkommodasie kry nie want die GPS koördinate wat op die webwerf verskyn, het ons na nerens gelei. Die eerste oproep na die eienaar was onbeantwooord. Hy het egter 'n paar minute later 'n boodskap gestuur met aanwysings. Die aanwysings het ons langs 'n treinspoor op 'n grondpad geneem na 'n omheinde huis met 'n geslote hek en geen ligte wat aan was nie (dit was reeds stikdonker). Ons het gepoog om die eienaar te kontak, maar hy het nie sy foon geantwoord nie. Ek het vir hom 'n boodskap gestuur dat ons nie die plek kan kry nie en oorkant die pad by Oasis gaan oorbly. Die boodskap is eers die volgende dag beantwoord met 'n: "Oasis is reg by die afdraai"!

Translate to English.

We could not find the turn to the accommodation and the owner did not respond to inquiries.

We couldn't find the turn off to the accommodation because the GPS coordinates that appear on the website led us nowhere. The first call to the owner went unanswered. However, he sent a message a few minutes later with directions. The directions took us along a train track on a dirt road to a fenced house with a locked gate and no lights on (it was already pitch dark). We attempted to contact the owner, but he did not answer his phone. I texted him that we couldn't find the place and were going to stay across the road at Oasis. The message was only answered the next day with a: "Oasis is right at the turn"!

Rocky Drift Private Nature Reserve & Campsites 's response

Hi Elize,

Sometimes our signal at Rockydrift is not as it should be, due to being in a valley with mountains on 3 sides and I'm guessing here, due to service providers signal. If and when we do not receive messages, nor are able to phone the guest back, we send directions again (after sending our guest directions 24 hours before their booking in date). We have been sending the same directions to our guest for the last 75 years (allowing for changes to the N4 and for those family members who have passed away) and if for some reason, they are not sufficient, we have not been made aware to date. The fact that you landed up staying at the place across the road from us, I personally have no idea how.

Please feel free to advise on improving our directions,

Warm Regards,
Hans Ammon

Ongelooflike mooi, rustige omgewing!

Ons was daar met ons 3 brakke vir twee nagte en ek's nie seker wie het dit meer geniet, ons of hulle nie! Die blyplek was baie goed ingerig en ten spyte van die koue weer die eerste dag en nag het die kaggel ons baie goed warm en cosy gehou. Die staproete rivier langs met die honde was ongelooflik mooi en ideale setting vir piekniek. Ons wil eintlik nie die plek te sterk aanbeveel nie ingeval dit so besig raak dat ons nie weer plek kry nie! Baie dankie, ons sal definitief terug wees!

Incredibly beautiful, peaceful environment!

We were there with our 3 dogs for two nights and I'm not sure who enjoyed it anymore, us or them! The accommodation was very well appointed and despite the cold weather the first day and night the fireplace kept us very warm and cozy. The hiking trail along the river with the dogs was incredibly beautiful and ideal for picnics. We really do not want to recommend the place too strongly in case it gets so busy that we will not find space again! Thank you very much, we will definitely be back!

Stunning views, Hans was very helpful and accommodating to us.

Hans was very accommodating and helpful, as cancelled that morning due to unforeseen events and later during day we decided to see if our chalet was still available and make our way through. Hans got our chalet ready for us once more. The chalets are still new and they are still busy building a restaurant. Really cute cottages and perfect for 2 or 3 people. The views are stunning.

Lekker, netjiese verblyf!

Ons het 'n wonderlike naweek hier gehad, netjiese skoon plek! Eerste mense om in die nuwe Reed Cottage te bly, sal definitief weer daar bly. Baie vriendelike en behulpsame gasheer. Sal definitief aanbeveel as jy net wil weg kom van die stad se geraas af en 'n rustige naweek wil hê.

Eenvoudig, kry waarvoor jy betaal.

Die is slegs vir oorslaap, TV het nie gewerk nie (donderweer) een slaapkamer met badkamer en 'n kombuis, moet nie te veel verwag nie, was darem skoon en netjies, maar die deur kon nie sluit nie.

Die natuurskoon was regtig die moeite werd.

Verblyf is baie mooi, net jammer dat daar nie addisionele warm goed is nie. Die plek self is bitter koud. Hout wat te koop is is nogal duur. Daar kort nog aandag aan die plekkie waarin ons gebly het. Onder andere was daar nie 'n besem om self bietjie uit te vee nie. Die braai-area word nie skoongemaak nadat mens gebraai het nie en daar is ook nie fasiliteite om dit self te doen nie. Die braai-area is ook bietjie ver van die chalet af. Die ander chalets het Weber-braais gehad behalwe die chalet waarin ons gebly het. Dis net om 'n paar goedjies op te noem. Verder was ons verblyf baie rustig en die natuur het definitief opgemaak vir die ander goed wat verlore gegaan het.

The scenery was really worth it.

Accommodation is very nice, just a pity that there is no extra things to keep you warm. The place itself is very cold. Wood for sale is quite expensive. Attention is needed at the spot we stayed in. Among other things, there was no broom. The braai area is not cleaned after one has a braai and there are no facilities to do it yourself. The braai area is also a bit far from the chalet. The other chalets had a Weber braai except for the chalet we stayed in. This is just to name a few things. Other than that, our stay was very quiet and nature definitely made up for the other things that were missing.

Only for off road vehicles.

Nice chalet but very cold. Was not informed if we could make a fire in the fireplace. Busy with renovations so no game drives or hiking. Road to the reserve very bad.

Rocky Drift Private Nature Reserve & Campsites 's response

Hi Helene,
Yes, it was cold. Unfortunately, it was winter, I couldn't change that, and apparently one of the coldest ones for a very long time. We did build the fireplace for this reason originally. I do apologize that you did not make a fire in the fireplace. I will consider putting up signs so that in future our guest will know that they can make a fire in the fireplace which we built to be a fireplace.
Renovations did take place at one unit and the Restaurant, but not on the hiking trails, which are up to 15 km long and clearly marked.
Hope to see you again soon. We will supply a free load of wood on your next visit. Ror the fireplace.
Warm Regards,
Hans Ammon

Baie lekker gebly. 'n Paar dinge wat opskerp nodig het.

Pragtige reservaat met baie potensiaal. Owl house was 'n lekker huisie maar het 'n bietjie instandhouding (toiletbak in dak lek op mens se kop as jy sit) nodig en verbeterde sekuriteit (minder wankelrige slotte aan groot skuifdeure en diefwering). Ons was ietwat teleurgesteld met die ontvangs wat ons bespreking en reëling om laat in te klok heeltemal vergeet het. Was nogal sleg om voor die hek te wag in die nag met eienaar se selfoon wat sedert die middag al nie beantwoord word nie. Baie dankie aan LekkeSlaap se uitstekende hulplyn wat dit in 'n japtrap vir ons uitsorteer het. Ons moes ook wag dat die huisie reggemaak word. Nietemin het ons heerlik gerus en as die paar dinge in terme van diens opgeskerp kan word sal ons definitief weer gaan.

Had a very nice stay. A couple of things need to be renovated.

Beautiful reserve with a lot of potential. Owl House was a great house but needs some renovations (toilet bowl in rood drips on your head when you sit) and better security (less dodgy locks on big sliding doors and burglar bars). We were somewhat disappointed with the reception which completely forgot our booking and arrangement of checking in late. Was quite bad to wait in front of the gate at night with the owner cellphone being unanswered from the afternoon already. Thank you very much to LekkeSlaap for their excellent help line and sorting it out within minutes. We also had to wait for the house to get prepared. Other than that we slept great and if a couple of things regarding the service can be sharpened we'll definitely visit them again.

Eenheid baie mooi en netjies, perseel pragtig, maar was baie teleurgesteld oor die slegte diens in terme van kliënte by hul besprekings te besorg.

Ek het met die eienaar self telefonies gekommunikeer en seker gemaak ons kan vroeg inboek. Toe ons by die bestemming aankom, was daar 'n ander groep mense in ons eenheid. Ons moes meer as 'n uur wag om in ons bespreekte (en bevestigde) eenheid te kon inkom. Die opsigter wat op die perseel bly en die gaste inwag, het blykbaar vir die ander groep gesê dat daar nie nog mense die naweek kom nie, so hul kan in enige van die huisies ingaan. Dis regtig onaanvaarbaar. Die man was besig om te bad toe ons wou ingaan, so die eenheid was ook nie weer skoongemaak voordat ons kon in nie. Daar het ook blykbaar nog 'n groep mense aangekom wat by die ander eenheid bespreek was. Hul was toe gedwing om êrens anders te gaan aanklop. Ek het nie self met hulle gepraat nie, my man en pa het. Maar dis bloot ook onaanvaarbaar! Ek het geen probleem met die eenheid self nie. Alles was baie netjies en heeltemal aanvaarbaar.

Unit very nice and tidy, premises beautiful, but was very disappointed with the bad service in terms of dealing with customers on their bookings.

I communicated with the owner himself by phone and made sure we could check in early. When we arrived at the destination, there was another group of people in our unit. We had to wait over an hour to get into our reserved (and confirmed) unit. The caretaker who stays on the premises and waits for the guests, apparently told the other group that no more people are coming this weekend, so they can go into any of the cottages. It's really unacceptable. The man was taking a bath when we wanted to go in, so the unit was also not cleaned again before we could go in. Apparently another group of people who were booked at the other unit also arrived. They were then forced to knock somewhere else. I didn't talk to them myself, my husband and father did. But it's also simply unacceptable! I have no problem with the unit itself. Everything was very neat and completely acceptable.

Die uitsig is fantasties. Die huis is pragtig, maar die beddegoed het nie vars en skoon gelyk of gevoel nie. Ons was verras met die groot huis. Die ligte werk egter nie in die kombuis nie en dit was 'n groot irritasie. 'n Swembad sou welkom gewees het.

Totally disappointed with the standards.

Upon arrival I had to search for any staff. The owners house was inhabited by non-paying guests who commandeered the quad am bikes. The vegetation and runds were in a dreadful state due to a family of dwarf goats which were roaming free. These animals defecated all over the patio of the owl house, jumped up onto the table and chairs and were totally loose within the compound. The grid to the "private braai" had been taken by the non-paying guests and to cap it all their appeared two kittens which attacked the peahens chicks. Access to any walks was blocked and the area behind the rondel was filthy

Ruim en gerieflik; lieflike stapplek langs kabbelende water naby omliggende besienswaardighede!

Rockydrift het ons stadsiele rustig gestem met kabbelende water op ons drumpel, berge wat ons omring en stapplek wat ons voete die pad laat vat het. Ons kon heerlik kuier langs die kaggel in die ruim oopplan-ontwerp en vir die kosmakers was daar alles wat hulle nodig gehad het. Die volledige gasstoof met oond en moderne, GROOT yskas het ons verras. Die twee dubbelbeddens en twee badkamers is beslis 'n pluspunt (daar is 'n derde kamer met twee enkelbeddens). Die toesighouers het ons vriendelik ontvang en na ons behoeftes omgesien, maar die feit dat hulle ons direkte bure is, beteken dat privaatheid opgeogffer word. Ons beveel Rockdrift sonder skroom aan en dis ideaal vir gesinne met jong kinders wat rondhardloopplek nodig het. Weereens dankie vir 'n heerlike tyd en blyplek wat ons verwagtinge oortref het.

Spacious and comfortable; lovely walk along rippling water close to surrounding attractions!

Rockydrift calmed our urban souls with lapping water on our doorstep, mountains surrounding us and hiking that let our feet take the road. We were able to have a wonderful time by the fireplace in the spacious open plan design and for the cooks there was everything they needed. The complete gas stove with oven and modern, LARGE fridge surprised us. The two double beds and two bathrooms are definitely a plus (there is a third room with two single beds). The supervisors welcomed us kindly and looked after our needs, but the fact that they are our immediate neighbors means that privacy is sacrificed. We recommend Rockdrift without hesitation and it's ideal for families with young children who need space to run around. Thanks again for a wonderful time and place to stay that exceeded our expectations.

We were 6 adults, 2 toddlers and we had a WONDERFUL time! The house is very well looked after and built beautifully. The garden is spacious for the children to run and play and we really enjoyed the location - off the beaten track yet also close enough to shops if needed.

Verblyf was lekker privaat en stil. Personeel is vriendelik en behulpsaam.

Die bos geluide gemeng met die pragtige uitsig en stil kamp atmosfeer was amazing, ons het die ou bergbokkie wat elke oggend kom inloer het verskriklik geniet. Die personeel is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die pad tussen die spoor en die kamp kort net bietjie opknapping, werk nie so lekker met 'n standaard voertuig nie.

Peaceful, quite, relaxing away from everything but nature, just what my partner and needed

Beautiful and peaceful just what my partner and I needed. I would suggest the cottage has a couch added, as we wanted to utilize the fireplace, but had no comfy place to snuggle up on. There were also a few cockroaches in the kitchen :( . The road leading to the reserve is not friendly to regular cars, and is better suited to a bakkie or a 4x4. Other than that, we had a wonderful time and we will definitely be coming back soon. The care taker and his family were amazing. Thank you for a great stay!!

Lucky to have been in Webster House. Wonderful. !

We booked Owl House but luckily were offered Webster House on arrival. The Owl House loft is in my mind, not habitable, and should not be marketed as accommodation. I would have been very upset if we were forced to stay there. We enjoyed our stay immensely and will definitely return to stay in Webster House only. Love to Whiskey and kudos to Jonas and Linah!

'n Wonderlike klein chalet met pragtige afwerking. Stappies in die valley met sy watervalle was 'n hoogtepunt. Judas was baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Dit word sterk aanbeveel vir sielopruiming.

Experience mother nature's love kiss.

A wonderful little chalet with beautiful finishes. Walks in the valley with its waterfalls were a highlight. Judas was very friendly and helpful. It is highly recommended for soul cleansing.

Good stay ... but if there was a pool on the Reserve it would have been nicer

The place was very difficult to find no markings to Rockydrift but to Bergwater the owner should at least explain that when he send out directions. Despite that, good value for money, and good service.

Het meer verwag van die plek. Kostes regverdig nie die gehalte verblyf nie.

Lekker stil en afgesonder van buite wereld.Egter slegs die aand geslaap en sal dalk volgende keer langer oorbly en stap roetes volg. Kry dalk 'n ander siening van alles. Kostes wat vir drie betaal was om egter net te slaap, was na my mening te hoog.

Expected more from the place. Costs do not justify the quality of accommodation.

Nice and quiet and isolated from the outside world. However, only slept in the evening and will perhaps stay longer next time and follow walking routes. Maybe get a different view of everything. However, costs paid for three to just sleep were too high in my opinion.

Ons verblyf was gemaklik, maar daar is heelwat ruimte vir verbetering.

Ons was teleurgestel dat ons nie ingelig is dat daar geen opgeleide/formele personeel sal wees om ons te ontvang nie.

Our stay was comfortable, but there is a lot of room for improvement.

We were disappointed that we were not informed that there would be no trained/formal staff to receive us.

It is a beautiful, quit place for the whole family, I definitely recommend it to anyone. If you need peace of mind with no cell reception, Rockdrift is the place to go. I love it there. Thank you once again for a wonderful stay.
