We love the outpost but as returned guests we were a bit disappointed in the maintenance of the lodge. Deck walkway needed work. Shutters in the room needed service. Even though the food was good, the previous time it was magnificent.

Great lodge
This a great lodge and lived up to all our expectations. Great service, friendly staff and an enthusiastic and extremely knowledgeable ranger in the form of Dean. This area of the Kruger Park is not so great for game viewing but the remoteness of the area,the beautiful baobabs and stunning birdlife makes up for the rest. We hope to be back as soon as possible.
