- "Great staff, excellent food, wonderful wildlife viewing. Staff made us feel like family." - "Rhino river lodge is a great place to stay within a private reserve. The enthusiasm of the rangers and their willingness to go that extra mile to find that animal sighting that you are looking for is what makes this place special. The chalets are enormous and the homestead is the perfect place for a large family or for friends sharing. Food is simple but good."

- "Lovely place to stay! The owners are very friendly. The room was beautiful and I had the cutest little gecko visit me. Highly recommend. Thanks Angie" - "We had reservations for three nights but we had such a good time we wish we could’ve stayed longer. The owners were terrific! Rose was so great at organizing things for us and having great ideas for each day and night. Her meals were terrific and both Rose and Mike enjoyed cooking and having good conversations about the area and knowledgeable about everything. There are several great nature reserves surrounding the area and they will arrange nature drives or if you like to go out and explore on your own they will direct you to the reserves that allow you to do that. The best thing is that the lodge is comfortable and the rooms are excellent that you can just relax and do nothing but watch the wildlife and birds while you enjoy excellent food, drink of choice, and walk around the lodge area OR even have an excellent massage in your room. GREAT Job, Rose and Mike....Thank you! From Carol and Mike"
