Have been twice and both times have been welcomed by Sharon with a hearty welcome. We have camped and stayed in a cabin, both of which offered their own unique experience. The hiking is wonderful and there is so much to discover, we even sighted Gemsbok! A tranquil, relaxing setting off the grid that offers a getaway that revives the soul.

Gecko Rock private nature reserve is hidden gems just 2 and half hour drive from Capetown .I have traveled it 3 times, each time it provide unique experience.A haven of tranquility (no cell phone signal except at reception),shrouded in silence and topped by the widest, deepest and most liberally star-strewn skies one could imagine. The view from our wooden cabin is beautiful and mesmerizing. The accommodation is great, comfortable and you are made to feel most welcome by your host Sharon.

Such an awesome place to visit. The Deal family who own it are a great bunch of people and will make you feel welcome. Just be sure to bring a vehicle with a higher ground clearance than the average car (like a bakkie or SUV) since you need to do quite a bit of driving on dirt and gravel roads.

What a stunning getaway location. We stayed at the Echo Valley campsite, which was completely private and beautiful. The shower wasn't hot, but the little plunge pool was awesome!The road getting in was quite rough. I wouldn't attempt it in a small city car, unless you don't love your undercarriage.In terms of climbing, there are some crags withing walking distance from the campsite. We climbed at Gecko Crag and Tsunami wall, and both were in the sun from early on (winter). Non of the rock here runs horizontally, so don't expect easy, straight-forward climbing. Tsunami wall has an awesome base for picnics.

I hesitate to say isolated as you're only about 30 minutes away from the nearest town, but if it's an escape from the rat race and solitude you're after this is your space. Pristine karoo, open skies and views for days. The attention to detail is phenomenal. Loads to keep you busy without distraction from the outside world". Highly recommended."

This is a great place for any camping enthusiast. Gecko Rock is very quiet and has everything the Karoo can offer, from quiet days to starry nights.The camp sites are a bit close to one another so hopefully you have neighbors that share the same love for peace & quiet.Other activities include hiking, biking, shooting and off-roading.

This is a magic place. Literally in the middle of nowhere and a great place to get away from it. We only tapped the surface on what this place offers, so let me summarize it in a unique nature experience, serenity and calm. We will be back. The only shame was thatI never get to meet Sharon. Word from a tourist. If you are not an experienced off road driver I would recommend going with a SUV or at least a higher car. The recent rains made traveling the final kilometers interesting

We stayed at Gecko Rock for New Years for a few nights , such a special place. All the cabins are completely private and isolated from each other such a great place to view the stars and experience the Karoo and all it has to offer. The staff, owners and the whole experience was awesome, wish we could have stayed for longer.
