Each room and chalet at Garden Route Game Lodge offers either views of the mountains or the valley. They are elegantly decorated with thatched roofs and wooden furniture. All of them have TVs with digital channels and a safe. We loved our stay at the Garden Route Game Lodge so so much - they included so many little extras that made the trip so incredible. We loved our game drives, and the guide was so friendly and knowledgeable. We really appreciated the extra effort in them providing snacks for the kids and hot water bottles for the cold morning drive. The food was incredible. We are already planning when we will be back.
