EKUTHULENI - WOODEN CABIN OVER THE LAKE - Howick Hotels

The one-bedroom chalet sits on wooden stilts over the dam in Howick. It has a kitchenette, a balcony with lake and mountain views, and a family room. Glass stacking doors on two sides open onto a large deck above the water. The cabin includes a private bathroom, heating, board games, and free WiFi.
