History of Exeter River Lodge
Tucked away in a quiet corner of the Sabi Sand Game Reserve's western sector, River Lodge sits in the shade of a grove of ebony trees right on the edge of the Sand River. Eight luxury suites spread out along the shdy bank ith dramatic close up views of the River, all with generous spaces and elegant bathrooms. Cool off in the private plunge pool, while enjoying the sight of a herd of elephants drinking or perhpas hippos surfacing in the river below.
The magnificiently positioned guest sitting and dining areas overlook the Sand River, and are filled with deep sofas perfect for whiling away the hours between game drives. A gaint sausage tree provides shade for long, lazy afternoon lunches.

1) Sighting of the leopard
2) Sighting of the Big 5
3) Private plunge pool for leisurely afternoons while watching elephants walking past
4) Outdoor showers
5) African bush and the amazing sunsets and sunrises
