Located on the banks of the Berg River, approximately 15km outside the coastal town of Velddrif, Happy Campers Campsite offers a secluded and private riverside escape. This destination is ideal for those who want to experience the quiet beauty of the West Coast’s inland waterways, where the landscape is defined by wide horizons and the gentle flow of the river. The atmosphere is unpretentious and relaxed, providing a grounded space for large groups or families to gather in total privacy, away from the crowds of larger commercial resorts.
The property features a singular, private campsite that can accommodate up to 20 people, ensuring your group has exclusive use of the area. The stand is situated on sloping ground that leads down to the water’s edge, so bringing levelers and a groundsheet is a practical necessity for a comfortable setup. Despite its rustic setting, the site is well-equipped with essential modern comforts, including power points and a dedicated water tap. Most notably, the site features its own private ablution block with warm water showers and flushing toilets, along with a dedicated scullery area for washing dishes, allowing for a self-contained and convenient stay.
Life at the camp is centered on the river and the surrounding farm environment. Anglers can spend quiet hours fishing in the farm dam, while nature lovers can enjoy walking trails that come alive with vibrant colors during the West Coast flower season. Because the site is situated a fair distance from the nearest large town, it is a perfect spot for those who enjoy self-sufficiency and quiet starlit evenings around the braai. With reliable cell signal but a total focus on the outdoors, it provides a peaceful, malaria-free base for a classic Berg River getaway.
