    The pictures do not do it justice. This was an absolutely divine place to stay the weekend. We loved the treehouse, attention to detail, peace and quiet, and Leenster’s out-of-this world hospitality.

    The hosts were extremely kind and caring. Made us feel comfortable. Casper went the extra mile & helped us with our braai. Leenster's picnic box is to die for! My kids thoroughly enjoyed all the goodies inside.

    The treehouse is absolutely beautiful. The decor and finishings are of high quality and so well equipped - you will have everything you need and more. The wood-fired tub overlooking the river is such a special touch. I wish we could have stayed...

Our property feature two unique units: a stunning apartment with a river and garden view, and a brand-new luxury treehouse. The latter is our pride and joy and every inch of it was crafted with love and care by my husband. The property is set in an indigenous forest next to a river but still only 15km from Cradlestone Mall and Lanseria Airport. Other attractions in the area include the Sterkfontein Caves, The Rhino and Lion Park, Nirox Sculpture Park and various wedding venues. With its tranquil atmosphere this is the perfect quick escape from Joburg and its hustle and bustle. Our property is powered through solar panels, resulting in less load shedding outages.
My husband and I love being outdoors and being close to nature. Keeping up with current news events of the world are one of my pastime activities as well as cooking and baking. I enjoy having people around me and feel at home with a glass of wine in my hand, listening to Beethoven and Bob Dylan. You can contact us any time on our cell phone or email.
We are situated on the banks of the Crocodile river, listening to the sound of frogs, ducks and birds night and day: it is tranquil, peaceful and serene; we love the feeling of nature around us! Most of our guests use their own cars but uber is available.
