Camper Reviews
Unique and special campsite
Amber lagoon is one of a kind.
It is quirky in all the best ways.
There is access to see vygies in the surrounding “fields”. It is close enough to surrounding towns to be concise isn’t yet far enough to experience the quiet of the bush. It is also close to Gamkaberg.
There are great views, a swimming pool for those summer days, many star gazing opportunities including an open air bed.
Can’t wait to go back.
