Sue and Deon are excellent hosts and have a lovely home to share. Having breakfast on the rear lanai with giraffes and other visitors at the back fence was a most enjoyable morning. Deon was very helpful in making reservations at nearby restaurants.

We stayed here for the first 2 nights of a 32 day trip to SA. The hosts were so welcoming and the breakfasts were delicious. Our room was spacious and private. The guesthouse is located in a wildlife estate with kudu, warthogs and nyala visiting regularly, such a treat. We were able to take a walk through the estate with quite a few beautiful encounters with the animals nearby. Hoedspruit is a very safe town with lots of restaurants and supermarkets close by. Conveniently located near the Kruger National Park, Blyde River Canyon and Panama Route. This was one of the best guesthouses of all the accommodations we used during our trip.

Call of the Wild is literally a slice from the heavens here on earth. From the moment we arrived we were indulged with the sights of the amazing wildlife right on the property to the kindest hospitality from the lodge owners and staff. Our stay exceeded all expectations. I encourage you to book with Call of the Wild. You will NOT be disappointed.

We've just spent three wonderful days at Call of the Wild Lodge in the Hoedspruit Wildlife Estate. I can highly recommend this little gem. The hosts, Sue and Deon, and the lodge staff were lovely and welcoming. Our room was comfortable and beautifully decorated. A steady stream of giraffe, buck and warthog stroll past the lodge, and lots of birds in the garden. We'll definitely stay at Call of the Wild again.

If you're searching for a place to stay, don't waste your time looking elsewhere...Call of the Wild Lodge is the perfect place for your South Africa stay. Great location with plenty of good safari trips nearby, and close to Kruger. Where to begin...the beautiful lodge? the calming backyard oasis? the best breakfast I've ever had? the wildlife park nearby? the friendly Nyala greeting you? I'd have to say that Deon and Sue provided the best advice leading up to our stay. I started planning my trip 1 yr in advance and Sue and Deon gave us great recommendations on how to get there, where to go after, and helped ensure an unforgettable experience in SA. This was our first time visiting Africa, and I can honestly say that if it weren't for Sue and Deon, and the Call of the Wild Lodge, our trip just wouldn't have been the same. Thank you Sue and Deon!!!!
