Stunning stunning stunning! Pure natural bliss!

Beautiful and serene. This is a definite go back and visit again place as there is so much to do and see that one just cannot do in one visit.

This place gets full points and 5 stars in my opinion....if u r the outdoor type and enjoy nature and doing kayaking and fishing and hiking and non motorized watersports along rivers and estuaries with direct access to the beachand venturing slightly of the beaten track then this comfortable well priced accommodation is not to be overlooked.

Amazing how close you get to nature. you should be fit. Wear a hat with straps as it gets windy. Take water, at least 1 1/2 l. And take a snack.

We enjoyed our stay in one of the reserve's well-maintained chalets. Friendly and helpful staff.

The Goukamma Cape Nature reserve have always been one of my favorite getaways.
The park have suffered unimaginable damage after the 2017 wild fires. The fynbos veld have been completely destroyed. 2021 The fynbos is growing back very nicely. The indigenous Melkhout forest were also devastated but there is still patches of forest unscathed accessible by the hiking trails.
