The White House Lodge is a unique experience. The lodge is comfortable and the design is welcoming and charming. The views of the surrounding valley and mountains are great and add to the experience. Amenities were very good and breakfast was very good. Overall experience was rewarding. The hostess was friendly and a pleasure to work with. Would stay here again when the opportunity arises!

This was a 25 year reunion with my best friend. Susann reached out before I arrived to check what I needed and made the arrival so welcoming. We only stayed 2 nights but they were amazing. M I had an amazing time and would genuinely recommend this place.

Would have stayed longer.

The owners very friendly and we spent sometime talking to them. Location is very good and is within a hour and a half to get to the Krugrer park gates. We olny had one night as we were in transit , but would have stayed longer if we had had the time. We will be staying again next year ( vacancies available )

Tor zum Krüger NP

Idealer Ausgangs oder noch besser Endpunkt für den Krüger Airpor ( ca 8 min Fahrt) Condor bietet diesen als Zubringer zum Airport Johannesburg mit sehr geringen Aufpreis an! Es gibt auch viele Tips wie man die Krüger Tour gestalten kann - insbesondere von einer deutschsprachigen Gastgeberin! Frühstück war sehr lecker - wir kommen ganz bestimmt wieder !
