Exclusive Lodge Share on Private Game Reserve near Beestekraal NEW LISTING
Uploaded: January 20, 2026
Situated approximately 90 kilometers north of Pretoria, this exclusive lodge share is located within a private game reserve forming part of the greater Vaalkopdam Nature Reserve near Beestekraal. The reserve spans nearly 6,000 hectares and is home to a diverse array of mammal and bird species, with a river meandering through the property and flowing into the adjoining dam, enhancing both the natural beauty and ecological richness of the area. Ownership within the reserve is deliberately low density, comprising only 32 shareholders, 18 private lodges, and one commercial lodge, ensuring that the majority of the land remains dedicated to unspoilt wilderness and wildlife habitat. The offering includes a beautiful private lodge, full traversing rights across the entire 6,000-hectare reserve, and a pro-rata share of game. Monthly levies are approximately R11,000, which includes security, and the lodge may be co-owned by a maximum of six shareholders, making this an ideal opportunity for shared ownership within a well-managed conservation estate.
