Access is typically via Hoedspruit’s Eastgate Airport with a road transfer of around 45–60 minutes to the lodge, depending on gate and road conditions.

The lodge accommodates a maximum of about sixteen guests across seven stand-alone suites, designed for privacy and practical comfort. All suites are en suite and typically include air-conditioning or fans, mosquito netting, and private decks with plunge pools or seating areas oriented to the bush. Layouts suit couples or small families; specific configurations and proximity to the main area can be confirmed at booking.

The lodge rhythm centers on early morning and late afternoon activities, leaving ample midday time for rest, photo editing, or birding from the deck.
