My sincere apologies to Gavin for not having our Single Storey Cabin up to our normal high standards. We have as suggested by our guest spent a few days doing the things he suggested and getting it back to where it should be. This is the very first negative review of our Single Storey cabin in 18 years. The norm here is a 5 out of 5 for cleanliness. My apologies once again and we can assure our guests that they will experience our high standards.

Overall, it was a very disappointing experience, and I cannot in good conscience recommend this listing to anyone.
Read moreStanford Lake Lodge 's response
My sincere apologies to Nicole who was inconvenienced for having to stay in a unit that she did not book and for not phoning her back to thank her for graciously agreeing (after having discussions with the other guests to stay in the unit that the other guests booked). Unfortunately the guests in the wrong unit just made a mistake. I did phone the other guests back on the first night and they informed me that Nicole had been extremely nice and understanding and that Nicole was happy to move into the other unit.
Both units are marketed as being Budget Rustic Accommodation. Today I personally went into the unit, with one of our cleaning ladies, that Nicole stayed in and there was no lasting smell of mildew after the windows were opened, the bedding did not have any stains on it and the water pressure was fine.
I would like to recommend that Nicole come and stay in one of our "upmarket units" and as a gesture I would like to offer her a nice discount on their next stay for the inconvenience that they were caused.

We stayed in the Honeymoon Cabin. The view over the lake is beautiful. The directions to the cottage were clear, but I'm glad we arrived during the day because the entrance to our unit was very steep, there is also very limited space to turn your vehicle around. The "cabin" is very well equipped, I would especially like to mention the linen on the comfortable bed, it was luxurious and spotless. We have not stayed in such a well-kept place for a long time. We will definitely visit Stanford Lake Lodge again.

For us it was the height of relaxation. Lovely walk in the forest as well as past the Ebenezer Dam. Our cottage was well equipped. During the day the road was busy, but in the evenings it was dead quiet. The fireplace was a huge hit and the sundowners on a jetty that lies on Stanford lake is a memory that will stay with us for a long time. Would recommend anytime.

We stayed in two of the "Budget Cottages". The cottages are very well equipped - from the kitchen to the bedrooms. We had a great time and relaxed on the nice big stoep. The fact that no day visitors are allowed is great because it is so quiet and peaceful. We can certainly recommend Stanford Lake Lodge.

Clean, tidy, safe, good "halfway station".
It was easy to find using Google because the instructions from the resort itself did not give directions from the Polokwane side (this can be easily fixed). On the farm itself it was easy, even in the dark, to find the cottage. Good stay and value for money. The place to sleep, on a cold night in the mountains, was warm and comfortable. Another recommendation: turn on an outside light if you know people will arrive after dark. Had a good stay on the way to the wildlife park.

The surroundings are very beautiful and peaceful and you can hear yourself thinking. The accommodation is basic and economical but the unit definitely needs renovation. Our unit's cottage roof leaked in 2 places which forced us to come home a day early. I informed the owner to which he responded: They will look into it, but I just need to know that there was 55mm of rain. He also offered to help us next time at a discounted rate with a modern unit. The walls were dirty and a power point in the bathroom was open which is dangerous for 2 small children. But I can't fault the setting.

Wow, what a special place! Me and my wife were impressed with the spacious log house we stayed in. Neat and clean and equipped with all you need to have a relaxed time. Wood and firelighters were available in the house and you just pay for what you use. The views of the lake are breathtaking, so is the rest of the farm. We had a wonderful time there with so much to see and do. Great eateries nearby. The only complaint would be that we couldn't stay longer. Would love to go there again, only longer next time.

We were 4 ladies who each had our own room on a beautiful farm. Quiet, no traffic and very safe.
The house is basically equipped, not luxurious, but what we needed was available. The bathrooms both had a bath and one shower which was lovely for us. On the farm there is a nice place to walk and beautiful azaleas and trees. Because we wanted to visit Cheerio gardens it was conveniently close and places to eat too. Gavin was very friendly and we enjoyed his sister's "growth center".

Stanford Lodge is the worst accommodation I have ever booked. The photo on the web page is misleading as the accommodation is not at the log cabin as expected by the guest, but about 2 km from the lake/dam in an old farm house which is divided into several poorly equipped residential units. There is no air conditioner, braai facilities or a swimming pool. The unit assigned to me has no view. When asked, I was told to "go swimming if I wanted to swim" in the lake/pond. However, the lake/pond is inaccessible because the banks are overgrown with reeds. The accommodation was of such a poor nature that within half an hour of my arrival I decided to pack up and look for alternative accommodation. Fortunately, I was able to find accommodation for me and my family. Of course I forfeited my 50% deposit which I had to pay in advance and in good faith but still I was threatened by a most incompetent owner/manager of Stanford Lake Lodge that he would see me in small claims court after I told him felt that the accommodation he offered was not acceptable and that I would rather look for other accommodation. I would strongly discourage any prospective visitor from booking at Stanford Lake!
