Mjejane Reserve View Lodges
Reserve view lodges sit deeper inside Mjejane Game Reserve, surrounded by open bushveld instead of facing the Crocodile River. Animals come right to your fence — kudu graze in the mornings, elephants pass through in the afternoons, and lion are often heard at night.
Reserve view lodges typically offer better value than river-front lodges and a stronger sense of being inside the wilderness. Every one below is self-catering and personally vetted by We Love Kruger.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a reserve view lodge?+
Reserve view lodges sit deeper inside Mjejane Game Reserve and look out over the open bushveld rather than the Crocodile River. You're surrounded on all sides by the reserve, which means animals — including the Big 5 — frequently walk past or feed near the lodge.
Are reserve view lodges quieter than river view lodges?+
Generally yes. River view lodges are clustered along the southern boundary, so neighbours are closer. Reserve view lodges are spread across the wider reserve, which often means more privacy and a stronger sense of being inside the wilderness.
Will I see less wildlife than from a river view lodge?+
Different wildlife — not less. River view lodges win for waterbuck, hippo and elephant herds at the river. Reserve view lodges are better for kudu, giraffe, leopard, and lion that move through the bushveld at night. Many guests prefer the variety.
Are reserve view lodges more affordable?+
Typically yes — expect to save 20–40% versus a similar-sized river view lodge. They're a great choice for longer stays or for guests who plan to spend most of their time on game drives anyway.
Can I still do game drives along the river?+
Yes. All Mjejane game drives access the river roads regardless of where your lodge is. Game drives are the best way to see the river up close — you can stay at a reserve view lodge and still get the full river experience on your morning and afternoon drives.
