I had a generally enjoyable time at Pine Lake Marina, with clean facilities and friendly staff enhancing my stay. However, I did encounter a few annoyances with the dining service and some issues with my accommodations. While the heated pool was a hit with the kids and the mini market was super convenient, there were still some areas needing improvement.

The room was clean and spacious, which was a pleasant surprise. However, I did notice that some chalets seemed to be in need of maintenance, as a fellow guest mentioned. Mine was adequate but lacked the charm I recall from previous stays.

I had mixed feelings about my stay at Pine Lake Marina. On one hand, the outdoor facilities and water activities were fantastic, and the location is beautiful, right by the lake. However, I faced several issues, like subpar-maintained rooms and poor WiFi connectivity that really affected my experience.

The room I stayed in had maintenance issues, like a leaking toilet and some noise disturbances from the fridge. It also wasn't cleaned well, which was disappointing for the price I paid. The layout was challenging, with the bathroom downstairs and the room upstairs, making it less convenient, especially for families.

Dining options at Pine Vibe Restaurant were just okay. I was surprised by the lack of takeaway menus, and the overall restaurant service could definitely be improved. Luckily, there are many great restaurants nearby that I enjoyed instead.

The outdoor amenities were a highlight, with excellent options for fun activities like pedal boating and ten-pin bowling. However, some of the equipment for water sports was in poor condition, which was disappointing.

I had a mixed experience at Pine Lake Marina. The grounds are beautiful, and there are plenty of activities for families, but I was disappointed with the cleanliness of the chalet. The rooms were dated, and while the facilities were decent, I encountered some maintenance issues. Overall, if you focus on the activities and overlook the downsides, it can still be a fun getaway. 😊

I had a great time at Pine Lake Marina overall. The location by the lake offered beautiful views and plenty of activities (plus, it’s close to town). The staff were friendly and helpful, but I noticed some maintenance issues that need attention. It was great value for a family getaway, though I wish the WiFi had been better.

My unit was well-equipped and clean, which I appreciated. However, the carpet was a bit dusty and the sleeper couch was uncomfortable. It's also worth mentioning that the bathroom layout wasn't ideal for our group.

The outdoor facilities were fantastic! The kids had a blast with the water activities, and I particularly enjoyed the hot pool. Nevertheless, some of the water sport equipment was in poor condition, and I think better maintenance would improve the experience.

I recently had a mixed experience at Pine Lake Marina. While the activities and beautiful location by Swartvlei Lake were fantastic, the accommodation left much to be desired. My unit was spacious, but maintenance issues like leaking taps and unclean bathrooms marred my stay. If they addressed these issues, I could see this being a great spot for families. 😕
