Hello Maryetta and Hank, thank you so much for the lovely weekend which we had at the Kudu Mountain Lodge. We really enjoyed it. It was one of the most relaxing and (at the same time) the most exciting weekends of the year. You made us feel like staying with friends. Many, many thanks! We are sure that we'll come back anytime. Kind regards Christine, Peter, Lisa and Tino

Hank and Maryetta,Thank you very much for the lovely stay at your Lodge, it was awesome. Thank you for the personal touches and you made us feel right at home. You made our first anniversary memorable forever.The quad bikes were fun. Being South African and to see giraffes at a distance of 10 meters on a quad bike was amazing. All the best with your new project and we would love to visit your lodge again soon.

Thank you for the Royal treatment, we felt like we were visiting friends but treated as kings, the food was superb, the lodge is absolutely stunning and very stylishly decorated, no expenses was spared, the hospitality was true to the warm African sun and we enjoyed every moment and the day didn't stop with the spectacular sunsets from the deck or somewhere on the farm being treated to a sunset drink and snack, Henk and Maryetta really went out of their way to let us feel at home and no request is to big a task not even building a boma for a braai. The boma is a winner and the braai was too. Thanks again and good luck with all your future plans, we'll definitely be checking in to see how you're doing. I can recommend 24Riviere to anyone who needs some seriously pampering and peace and quiet.....definetely worth a visit

We took a planned five day break in between two weeks of giving a seminar project management in a medical centre near Groblersdal. From the Internet we had selected the Waterberg area and 24Riviere Private Game Farm. And it was a very good choice! Not only the tranquil and beautiful surrounding, the comfort of our mountain lodge, the magnificent sunsets and nightly stargazing. But above all the warm reception and generous hospitality made us feel at home. We enjoyed Maryetta's excellent cooking and a game drive with Henk on their property. With renewed energy we left for the final week of lecturing. Thank you Henk and Maryetta, Nick, Krissie, Kas and last but not least Mark and Milotte and the housekeepers for an unforgettable stay at 24Riviere Private Game Farm.

Heading: Personal touches appreciated
Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed spending our 1st anniversary at 24 Riviere. The accommodation is beautiful and setting is peaceful and breathtaking. We look forward to returning when the lodge is more established. We enjoyed the hot tub and the Quad bike rides through the farm. The personal touches were most appreciated and the dinner very romantic!

A dream came through; a wonderfull stay at the bushlodge and wonderfull hosts with stagiair(s) and housekeeping staff.For the first time in our life we wondered a southern sky (full of stars never seen in Holland) from the tube on the terrace.Henk & Maryetta (and Mark of course) thanks again and we hope to come back after retirement.

Wir haben unser kleines Paradies in Südafrika gefunden. Maryëtta und Henk haben sich unglaublich um uns gekümmert. Wir haben uns wie zu Hause gefühlt. Maryëtta ist eine hervorragende Köchin. Wir möchten uns für die wunderschöne Zeit bedanken und werden jedesmal einen Stopp in Vaalwater einplanen. Wir wünschen Euch ganz viel Erfolg mit Eurem Vorhaben und möchten das nächste Mal das Rhino sehen.
Liebe GrüsseSilke und Marcus

Good Afternoon Henk & Maryetta
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you once again for the lovely and most memorable weekend. Your hospitality and warmth had more value than everything else presented by you. My sister and husband, couldn't thank me enough, but i have to thank you. We felt a bit guilty, because you overspoiled us and there was nothing we could return but our appreciation and thanks. Hope we meet soon again and i've definitely been promoting you as i'm forwarding pictures of the beautiful sunsets, the kudus, the beautiful lodges, etc.
Once again thank you.
Kind Regards
Luicia

Our very first night in Africa was in 24Riviere.We could not have had a better start.A warm welcome from Mariette and Henk. When Henk showed us the mountainlodge, and then the terrace with the huge view I almost got tears in my eyes.The place is so quiet, there is so much space everywhere, the lodge is very beautiful and tasteful.A short walk in the morning through the savanne for breakfast is such a nice start of the day.I also want to mention all the beautiful birds flying around the lapa and the swimmingpool.When we return to Africa (and we sure will), we will return to this wonderful place.
