About Savannah Game & River Retreat

Savannah Game & River Retreat is a secluded African bush retreat where tranquility and relaxation awaits you. This is where the sunsets explode in brilliant colours of orange and red against the mountains of the Vredefort Dome, which is a World Heritage Site.

Accommodation

At this small and intimate safari lodge you can enjoy our Rustic Tented Chalets, The Main Lodge or our rondavel accommodation. The lodge is situated within walking distance to the river.

Please see the individual room descriptions with photographs below, to assist you with your choice.

Breakfast & Dining

We have a Restaurant and Bush Bar with full DSTV on the premises.
Buffet breakfasts are served on the deck overlooking the watering hole.

Location

We are situated in the Free State just outside Parys, nestled in the Vredefort Dome bordering 8km of Vaal River frontage. Therefore we own some of the most beautiful and breathtaking sites and sunsets!

We have the pleasure of sharing 2500 acres with 25 different mammal species including buffalo, giraffe, sable, zebra, kudu and many more. The list is endless; come and join us for a scenic game drive.

The 8km of Vaal frontage that was mentioned is ideal for paddling, bird watching over 300 species and fishing. We also have hiking and biking trails along the river for relaxing strolls or extreme sports!

Baie swak diens!

January 2019

Verified reviewfair

Ons het in 'n rondawel gebly wat baie basies was, skoon met 'n gemaklike groot bed. Die stort is klein, die wasbak is baie klein, en geen rakke om jou toiletware te sit nie. Geen spieël in die badkamer nie en die slaapkamer was redelik donker. Kamer het 'n koffie stasie, maar geen yskas. Baie gewoonlikke ontbyt. Nie die Geld werd nie. Baie ander (lekker) plekke in die omgewing.
