Description

Discover a truly unique and thrilling camping experience at Willem's Rus, a privately owned caravan park nestled in the heart of the malaria-free Dinokeng Big Five Game Reserve. This is not just a campsite near a reserve; it is a destination where you are completely immersed in a wild, free-roaming Big Five environment. Located just a short and easy drive from Pretoria, it offers a remarkably accessible escape where you can trade the city rush for the authentic sounds and sights of the deep bushveld.

The experience at Willem's Rus is unlike any other. It offers the rare and exhilarating possibility of spotting Africa's most iconic animals, including the Big Five, right from the comfort and safety of your own campsite. Imagine relaxing by your fire, listening to the sounds of the night, and catching a glimpse of a majestic elephant or a graceful leopard wandering past. It's a truly unforgettable and immersive safari experience, a chance to feel a profound and direct connection to the wild.

While the setting is thrillingly wild, your comfort is a top priority. The tranquil bushveld destination offers a selection of well-demarcated and partially shaded campsites, each one a spacious and private haven for your stay. Every site is a self-contained hub of convenience, equipped with its own electricity, a water tap, and a stand-alone barbecue facility. These are all supported by a centrally located ablution facility of an outstandingly high standard, which is serviced regularly throughout the day, ensuring a completely comfortable and unforgettable adventure.

We have been there twice, and will definitely return again. Beautiful, peaceful, and so neat. Spring is the guy that can tell you where the bush babies live, and help you out with anything. Truly the best campsite I’ve ever been to.

A very nice, very quiet camp with modern, well-designed, spotless ablution facilities. Attention to detail is king here. Friendly staff. Most sites have a good view of the watering holes just outside the fence. Unfortunately very dry and a bit dusty but that is to be expected at this time of the season. Because of this it is somewhat difficult to get the tent pegs into the ground.

First time visiting Dinokeng and doing our first camping trip, and we booked at Willems Rus.
We booked stands 18 and 19 that were right in the corner, with great privacy. Ablution facilities are 5 star. Very neat, clean, stands, with separate tap and power outlets.
Each stand has a very good movable braai with a grid. There is a beautiful pool. Soft drinks, wood, and ice at reception. Spring helped us erect our caravan and camping gear super fast. He is absolutely one of the best helpers ever! Safari mall is nearby if you forget something at home. Highly recommended campsite. This campsite is extremely well maintained, and the hosts Anton and Hans are very helpful and accommodating.
