MADIKWE Jaci's Tree Lodge

Highlights

General Information

You will find Jaci's Tree Lodge in the malaria free Madikwe Game Reserve. The reserve has 75,000 hectares of Big 5 territory and is also famous for its African Wild Dog populations.

Jaci's Tree Lodge opened in December 2002 - with Eight "Tree Houses", each encompassing a giant Tambotie or Leadwood Tree. Each Tree House is constructed amongst the Riverine forest on stilts, up to 6 meters above the ground. Raised wooden walkways, suspended in the forest canopy lining the banks of the Marico River connect with the extraordinary Main Lodge and its generous facilities.

At Jaci's Tree Lodge the forest surrounds are invited in, to compliment your stay with them. An open plan, en-suite bathroom with an enormous stone bath and outdoor Jungle Shower allow you to enjoy your forest surrounds. Relax, on the deck in front of your room, in the main lodge or wander to the forest pool to cool off.

The spacious open-plan main building at Jaci's Tree Lodge includes a magnificent bar and lounge area separate from the dining area by a 4 sided open fireplace. The interiors proudly showcase the vibrant colors and unique crafts found in Southern Africa. Jaci has created a truly African lodge, enhanced by a superior personal service and a very intimate safari experience.

Game drives are offered in the mornings and afternoons and walks are also available for the more adventurous. Between the early morning and evening game drives and walks, there is a cool swimming pool overlooking the river. You can while away the lazy hours of the day in a hammock, sipping an ice-cold drink, or watching the birds, the butterflies and beasts. The day, the place, the ambience are yours, in peace.
