Vacation rentals with lake access in Wilderness

Maria made us feel right at home. The place is incredible, and the furniture is equally impressive. We mostly followed the recommendations they gave us. The house is situated in a very safe area, just a 5-minute walk from a restaurant and a coffee shop. The beach is just a 10-minute walk away. It’s the perfect place to stay with a baby. We used the barbecue and beach chairs. Knysna is an ideal break on the Garden Route. We would have stayed longer if we could have!

The most beautiful Airbnb with the option to go on a free SUP or bike ride in the area. Knysna was lovely and this place felt like home and had everything you could wish for - a cozy fireplace, comfy bed and spacious bathroom.

It was lovely returning to Christa & Josephs home. Joseph is always up for a good conversation & willing to share tips & valuable insights. Our stay was a wonderful escape from the demands of everyday life. The Hosts warmth is evident in their efforts to think of everything one might need in a Home away from Home .Thank You for a comfortable & restful stay.

The view from the house is absolutely stunning, and the location is brilliant. Morné responded very quickly whenever needed and was super friendly. Overall we really enjoyed our stay.

Hi Mark and Liz, Thank you for hosting us in your beautiful home. We had the most wonderful break away. The house is amazing, and exceeded all of our expectations! From the beautiful decor to the extremely well equipped kitchen and the post card views, we couldn't have asked for any better. Your care, hospitality and kindness goes wat beyond and was so appreciated. This is "so long" and definitely not "good bye" as we will be back. Kind regards The Fouché Family

We had a wonderful stay at Gantry House. The location was beautiful and convenient, the house was spotless, the amenities were excellent and Liddi was communicative and efficient. We’d love to stay again.

We have spent many holidays on Thesen Islands over the years, renting multiple homes on multiple islands. We have now found the perfect home for us. What you arrive to is so much better than any description or picture and exceeded all of our expectations without exception. It's a stunning North facing location with a wonderful view up the main canal. The home is very well appointed and most notably, for us and for my wife, spotlessley clean. Also very notably we were supplied with the small things that make a big difference and give you a sense of generosity by the hosts; toilet paper, dishwasher tabs, sponges, washing powder, hand soaps etc (you'll be shocked how many home stays don't supply the small things). We are so appreciative to Ilsebe for sharing her lovely home with us. 2026 is already booked. Can't wait! The Farrells

Carla was lovely and the house was stunning. A great location with lovely views and easy access to a host of great shops and restaurants. We would love to come again. Highly recommended

This space is perfect for 2 people for a getaway, the 2 patios were a bonus, space to simply be. This is a prime spot in These Island, in our opinion, the view over the estuary, the bird life, is magnificent and peaceful Short walk to the restuarants as the Quay in town. Access to the canoe, SUP Bikes and golf sticks was a bonus, we used them all and had great fun, without having to have packed all our own gear. Diane and her family and the housekeeper, Patience were fabulous, helping us with our luggage, cleaning and checking in on us regularly. We will return for the simplicity of being away without stress.

We had a double booking as mom's booked with each other for the Knysna Western Cape Netball Festival, however Lynn and Clyde were very understanding and give us time to figure things out. We checked and out easily and Lynn and Clyde even go as far as selecting some hand selected beverages and eats that can was a pleasant surprise and showed us a warm welcome to Knysna. I will definitely book with Lynn and Clyde again next time in Knysna. The B&B was value for money in a safe location just 2-3 minutes outside of Knysna town. Away from the hussle and bussle. Thank you Lynn and Clyde.

Amazing space! Great location within the golf estate, with a lovely view from the balcony. Well designed apartment with excellent furnishing and decor. Walks and runs within the estate were great - safe and wonderful views. A short drive away from the beach. Would definitely recommend this space. Thanks to Juan for the instructions and check in info, and for being available when needed. Much appreciated

We were very impressed by the attention to detail. We arrived late, but Olwen has ensured that we had the basics so that we could settle in, including a bottle of wine! The balcony had two comfortable loungers, table and chairs that afforded us a beautiful view of the canals, beautiful views especially in the early morning and the evenings. The bedding and towels were of a good quality. The kitchen had everything we needed. Internet was good enough to allow “working from home” through many teams meetings. Easy walk to many restaurants. Safe and secure underground parking. The apartment met all our expectations.

Nice location, close to the village, and very friendly host. Thank you!

We stayed in one of Tine’s luxury glamping caravans as the room on AirBnB got double booked. Tine solved the matter very professionally and upon arrival she was very friendly and helpful. Thanks for our short but beautiful stay!

What a fantastic place! The cottage is excellent equipped, tastefully decorated and we loved sitting on the veranda and enjoying the stunning view. Refreshing in the pool on a hot day is wonderful. Adele and Ken are the best hosts you can imagine. Super communication, very friendly and helpful

What a great view and a spacious interior! The property owners were so friendly! One if our most pleasant Airbnb stays.

We had a marvelous holiday in a beautifully, peacefully setting. Noreen and Simon made us feel welcome, and were lucky to see the newborn faul "cracker" borned on Christmas.

wonderful farm setting to get away from the clutter - wish we had more time to explore the farms and surroundings. Amenities were excellent and as described. will always recommend to those interested.

Jean's house is the absolute perfect place for a family holiday. Lots of space, adjacent to a lovely, clean lagoon for fishing, swimming and canoeing; a lovely lawn for the kids to play on, a massive stoep (verandah) to spend the days and early evenings enjoying a braai and admiring the spectacular view of the hill on the other side of the lagoon, in the coolness of shade. The granny cottage in the backyard is the perfect go-to place for grandparents or parents to escape to. The location is perfect, on a cul-de-sac, near enough to restaurants and shops alike. To top it all, Jean is the perfect host and communicated accurately, honestly and immediately. Our large family of nine returned home, relaxed, happy and well rested. We absolutely dream of repeating our fabulous holiday in the exact same house, soon.

It was the perfect relaxing holiday setting in beautiful nature surroundings. We absolutely will visit this holiday home again. Craig and Theoline are friendly and helpfull hosts. I will recommend their place to anyone.

Linda was amazing- going out of her way to help us with additional nights after we ran into some issues. the units were lovely and the staff so helpful and friendly - moving our luggage to different units due to the additional nights. thank you!!

Nico went out of his way to make sure we had a comfortable stay. We had a wonderful time and will surely go back there whenever we're in Knysna :)

We love staying at Paula's place, it is a divine cottage complete with everything one needs. Set in a beautiful garden, which our border collies just love. We thoroughly enjoy our holidays at Paula's place and will definitely be back again.

Amazing place and perfect host! The kitchen is well equipped and the beds are comfortable. The veranda was the perfect spot to sit back and relax. Would recommend Belinda's place as a perfect get away.
