WOW WOW WOW !!! What an amazing experience :) our only regret was not having booked another day ! It takes a little while to get used to being on the water so having 2 full days would have been perfect! Next time we are definitely booking 3 days.
Ons ontvangs en hulp met aankoms was uitstekend gedoen deur die personeel. Die onderving op die water met so 'n Houseboat was 'n belewenis wat ons nooit sal vergeet nie.
Basie
Had an awesome time and Sam and her staff are wonderful and very accommodating. Enjoyed every moment on the water. As it was our first time, I would normally be more on edge but Sam made us feel so comfortable with what we were doing that it was actually a very relaxing and a fun experience. Definitely going back.
Excellent experience. Definitely recommend.
Went as a family including the grandkids and what a fantastic adventure! Boats in immaculate condition, everything you see on the website you get, the real thing is just better. Stayed for 2 nights on the Vaal, and the serenity and the beauty and the experience was worth every cent!
it was great, the staff are so helpful and friendly, we will be back thank you so much for everything!!
The boat was in a good condition and clean. The staff very helpful and friendly.
The experience on the river, views of property and sunset and sunrise was phenomenal.
Will definitely go back.
Awesome experience. Clean and tidy. Comfortable and fishing at the different spots on the Vaal was awesome
We had a lovely stay on the boat, the staff were super friendly and helpful :-)
A really great and enjoyable adventure for the weekend for 2 people. The boat was well equipped and was easy to navigate along the Vaal River for 3 nights. Stopped off at pubs and restaurants for lunch and in the evenings had a braai in the little weber on the boat. The tiny bathroom with small portable toilet and hand held shower was not great and probably if there was a shower facility on shore at Old Willow I would have enjoyed the trip even more. But overall, we had a wonderful long weekend and would recommend it as a "camping" trip with a difference...

Awesome!!
Good!!
So clean and nice!
The VAAL River and surroundings.
It was amazing.
Privacy.
Stonehaven restaurant.
The river.
Everything including the beautiful view of the river.
Stonehaven on Vaal was a highlight and being by the river is always a treat. There are lots of places for water activities such as cruises.
