Terry and Cheryl were gracious hosts to a couple of late arrivals. Perfect stopover on way to Blyde River area or Kruger coming from Jo'burg. A very warm introduction to SA hospitality. There's not much in town for dining so plan ahead and let them know ahead if you are arriving late in the day and they will provide dinner.

A surprisingly wonderful find. Really felt comfortable and perfectly at home. So convenient and close to everything. Jaco is a gem of the Lowveld - brilliant with the kids. Thank you Terry and Cheryl. All the best.

Thanks for making our South African trip even better. What was just a stopover turned out to be one of the best places we stayed in South Africa. You all showed us that Waterval Boven is a beautiful town. Thanks again for your hospitality, the amazing hikes, the wonderful food and all the tips you gave us for our trip. In our next stay in South Africa we will definitely come back. We will miss you.
