OUR JOURNEY


" We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give." Winston Churchill.

This is a life quote we have experience to a great extend the past year. We made the thought decision to start our own lodge from scratch and that in a time that we were knee deep in work and couldn't find time to take up the ropes to start. If it wasn't for three exceptional people in our life: my father, Stevie Pretorius, mother, Ohna Pretorius and sister, Anandi Pretorius, we would not have made it. We found the ideal spot for the lodge and laid out all the plans and without further ado my father started clearing the ground and working day and night with the builders to get the lodge finished. Each and everyone of them did more than what we ever asked to build a lodge more than up to standard, a lodge we are truly proud of. My father started clearing the land on the 18th of June 2015 and on the 1st of May 2016 we were full functional and ready for our first clients. He did all of the work himself: from laying the foundations, plumbing, welding, the thought wood work and keeping all the workers in line every day. We would like to thank them for all the effort, the hard work and late nights spend building on our dreams and the exceptional people they are. We are truly blessed with the best family and support group we could ask for.
Without them we know we would not be where we are today
