Lodges
Jaci’s Safari Lodge
masterfully blends into its surroundings, encompassing a magnificent main area built around an
ancient termite mound. The location was discovered and the concept envisaged by Jan in combination with Jaci's colourful decorating style and attention to detail. You are
sure of a memorable and unique Safari experience.
With only eight tents and two exclusive family suites - the established nare suite and the newly built safari suite. All the tents as well as the two suites are built using a combination of
shaggy thatched roofs, stone and canvas walls to create an authentic "tented" feel. Each "tent" has an open plan bathroom with a hand built "rock" bath and outdoor "safari" shower. A private
wooden viewing deck at the entrance overlooks a small stream where animals and birds come to drink.
Enjoy fire cooked meals in our enclosed boma, or under the stars at a bush braai. Lounge at the pool or enjoy bird watching from the hammock on the bank of the Groot Marico
River. Indulge yourself in your surroundings.
Jaci’s Tree Lodge
Jaci's Tree Lodge opened in December 2002 - with Eight "Tree Houses", each encompassing
a giant Tambotie or Leadwood Tree.
Each “Tree House” is constructed amongst the Riverine forest on stilts, up to 6 meters above the ground.
In these spacious “Tree Houses” – built utilizing a combination of rosewood, thatch and stacking doors - the forest surrounds are invited in, to compliment your stay with us. An open plan,
en-suite bathroom with an enormous stone bath and outdoor “Jungle Shower” allow you to enjoy your forest surrounds.
Relax, on the deck in front of your room, in the main lodge or wander to the forest pool to cool off.
Raised wooden walkways, suspended in the forest canopy lining the banks of the Marico River, will connect with the extraordinary Main Lodge and its generous facilities.
