Upon your arrival at the Reserve entrance you will have to sign an indemnity and the location of the lodge will be pointed to you.

There is no need to arrange for a key pick-up, as upon your arrival at the lodge the Game Ranger will greet you and open the lodge for you. Please note that a second indemnity needs to be signed with the Game Ranger for each individual staying at the lodge.

For security reasons and as requested as a result of the on-going rhino poaching, the Trustees have taken the decision that effective from 10 October 2011, an arrivals list will be compiled by the HOA, and all visitors entering the reserve will have to check in at gatehouse reception. At check-in, guests will be required to sign an indemnity form, and will be handed a copy of the Reserve Rules and a map of the reserve.

Access to the property will only be given to persons whose names and details appear on the arrivals list.
