Otters Haunt

Vaal River, South Africa

About Otters Haunt

Otters Haunt is located on the banks of the Vaal River in the beautiful Vredefort Dome World Heritage Site. Rustic accommodations include a large guest house, a bush camp and chalets, all equipped for self-catering. Guests can look forward to an array of activities such as nature walks, hiking, river rafting and mountain biking.

We are situated within the vast and spectacular Vredefort Dome. The Dome marks the centre of the world’s oldest and largest asteroid impact crater, so big it can only be seen as a whole from space.

Being an Eco family, we decided to take our one property off the Eskom Power Grid. So therefore, our Otters Den River House, Porcupine Room and the Guineafowl Cottage are all fully powered by Solar. We also boast free WiFi throughout and have stunning riverfront views.
