We had a really lovely stay at Riverman Cabin in Tonteldoos. The setting is absolutely beautiful—peaceful, quiet, and perfect if you’re looking to disconnect and recharge. The cabin itself is cozy and well-equipped, with everything you need for a comfortable getaway. Waking up to the sounds of nature and the views of the surrounding landscape was definitely a highlight.
Riverman Cabin was the perfect getaway for us and our fur child. The scenery and area is absolutely fantastic. The cabins are neat as a pin and had all we needed to make our stay even more fabulous. Thanks for gaving us
Had an amazing trip in January with my wife and our 2 fur babies. The views, atmosphere and place is really beautiful. There is no sense of the city buzz. Everything is natural, quiet and peaceful. A 4x4 or SUV is highly recommended for the drive in and out. The off-road driving was real fun as well.
We spent two nights here and it was absolutely wonderful. Peaceful and quiet—exactly what you need to truly unwind and decompress. The place is exceptionally well kept, which made the stay even more enjoyable. I even tried my hand at fly fishing in one of the small dams and somehow managed to land two nicely sized trout—clearly beginner’s luck was on my side. Best of all, it’s pet-friendly, so the fur baby came along and had just as much fun as we did, possibly more. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a relaxing getaway with great upkeep and good vibes all around.
Beautiful, calm, quiet cabin. Great place for a peaceful weekend. Braai facilities outside and a log fireplace inside. Free range , friendly donkeys were an added bonus . Loved it 🥰
