All Comments for Stanford Lake Lodge

Enjoyed everything about our stay

We loved the setting and comfort of a well designed cabin., There is lots to do at Stanford Lake Lodge but we chose to re-collect our thoughts as our youngest son had passed away on the 9th of January after his battle with Cancer and we needed time to grieve. It was the perfect setting & hope to go back and visit again..........

My friends and I stayed in the single story cabin in December 2021. We had rain and mist for most of the four days and it was enjoyable to make fire in the log cabin. Looking forward to our next stay.

We really enjoyed the beautiful setting, and appreciated the fire-place! Unfortunately, despite a detailed email, there were also 17 noticed on the walls of the cabin. This seemed excesive and took away some of the charm and comfort. Perhaps these could be placed in an information booklet, instead of over every wall.

What a beautiful place. Never saw other humans. Totally worth it, but take lots of drinking water with as water is unfiltered lake water. We will return.

Lovely place very peaceful. ..clean comfortable unit. I will definitely return and recommend it to others

All was great, only that a few lights were not working and some of the stove plates didn't work. Otherwise all good and very comfortable!

Loved the history of this farm, turned lodge. Beautiful peaceful lake where you can fish and have a picnic. Accomodation is old farmhouse style in the side cottage. Kitchen very small and awkward but nice rooms, bathroom and inside braai and fireplace for the cold weather. Very quite and peaceful, you see no-one around.

Peace and quiet. The scent of pines. An upmarket lodge like this should offer DSTV. The road to the cabin should be better maintained.

We had a lovely time at Stanford Lake Lodge, the cottage was well equipped, spacious, clean and well positioned on the hill with a lovely view of the lake below. I would highly recommend Stanford Lake Lodge to any traveler its really worth every cent spent.

We went to Stanford Lake Lodge for our honeymoon and were privileged to stay in the Honeymoon Cabin.

We stayed in the One-Bedroom Cottage which was adequate for our needs. Cottage was clean, the bed was comfortable and kitchen and bathroom served the purpose for what they are intended. We enjoyed sitting out on the patio in the evenings viewing the lake and forests. The Forest walk was too far for us pensioners but the distance we did explore was lovely. Situation was ideal for sight-seeing in the area and we comfortably did Debengeni Falls, Baobab Tree, Cycad Forest and the Nougat Factory at The Coach House in one day despite poor condition of roads near the Baobab tree and Cycad Forest. Haernertzberg is a very quaint village and worth a visit.

Awesome place to get away and relax. Really enjoyed the setting, the accommodation was spacious and great. Wouldn't hesitate to come back.

Not bad for the price. We stayed in the 3 bed chalet. It can do with a bit of sprucing up - painting, etc. The growth centre on the farm is a marvel! Just the place to get in touch with your inner self.

We had a wonderful stay at Stanford Lake Lodge, in the 2 bedroom cottage, and would definitely stay there again!

My family enjoyed it so much. We would love to go back anytime. Was fantastic.

It's a very beautiful area with the mountains, flowers and the trees, the one bedroom cottage was very relax full and met my expectations more than what I expected, caught my first trout as well,very nice relaxed place, will most defiantly book next month again. Thanks a lot.

My family and I stayed in the single loge cabin for the weekend and I must say that this is an extreme relaxation lodge experience. Not that we do not get out a lot but I can with full confidence recommend this for all those city freaks that that live on the edge of self destruction.

Clean comfortable accommodation. Everything we needed. Did want a wood cabin as they are beautiful but we only wanted 1bedroom and they are big. Had lively walk in forest-very well good signage for walks.Would suggest they print maps of walks and put in rooms.

The cabins are wonderful - cosy and perfect for getting a bunch of people together for walks and big dinners in beautiful Magoebaskloof.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Stanford Lake Lodge. The property is beautiful and we loved the morning forest walks as well as the many activities in the area - perfect for kids. Next time I'd book the cabin and not the cottage though as the cottages do not have any views and are not in the best location if you consider where the cabins are. Thanks for the hospitality.

The cottage was very well equipped and very nicely maintained. The farm is beautiful. Gavin was extremely helpful and friendly. Great place to relax.

Lovely base from where to explore the beauty of the area. The log cabin is well positioned above the lake, allowing complete privacy. There are walking trails and mountain bike paths starting from your front door. Adventure sport activities such as Kloofing, tubing and ziplining are less than 15 min drive away. Will definitely be back.

Fantastic log cabin set on the fringes of an awesome forest on the shores of Stanford Lake. We'll be back.

Thanks to Gavin Stanford for providing first-class accommodation in the most peaceful and tranquil setting. A great place for family to relax and bond. We will definitely see you again. The mountains are magnificent.

We would like to thank the Stanford's for the most gorgeous holiday we have experienced in a very long time. The peaceful surroundings and great weather afforded us some time to recharge for another year of hustle and bustle. We will definitely be returning shortly and will happily recommend this venue to friends.
