Fish River Canyon, Karas Region hotel rooms at the Independent

"Just an all around exceptional lodge. Long drive to and from so spend two nights."

"A gracious lodge in a spectacular setting. We were welcomed warmly and helped to take our cases to our lodge. The lodge was smallish and basic but in a lovely spot surrounded by wildlife. Food was excellent, and we loved afternoon snacks on the terrace. The pool was beautifully sited and quiet. Darius led a very enjoyable and informative sundowner walk. Only a tiny criticism - the service in the restaurant was sometimes very slow. Overall our stay was a delight."

"Quirky, delightful motel in the middle of nowhere but able to provide nearly all modern comforts. Only thing missing was a tv in the room but I didn't miss it. Restaurant was excellent. Beds were very hard. Good hot shower. Having visited Ai Ais, I was very glad we were staying at the Roadhouse."

"This place is breathtakingly beautiful and very far off of the beaten path. We were shown incredible hospitality here. Definitely recommend the canyon drive. "

"Very good. We had a wonderful stay. "
