About Jaci’s Tree Lodge

Jaci's Tree Lodge is an all-inclusive safari getaway located in the beautiful Madikwe Game Reserve in the North West Province. Concealed in a lush riverine forest on the banks of the flowing Marico River, the recently-renovated retreat offers a wonderful oasis from the heat of African summer days, doubling as a cosy fireside sanctuary during the cooler winter months.

Jaci’s Tree Lodge is the accomplishment of Jan’s (the owner's) dream – an elevated lodge that seems to float above the ground. The lodge is intimate, private and luxurious, and appears to grow naturally from the earth. Each of the eight suites has been designed to sit high on stilts and with a focus on eco-friendly construction, making sure that they blend flawlessly into their environment. Guests also have full access of both the indoor and outdoor dining spaces as well as open-plan lounge and bar areas.
