Coot Club

A stylishly-designed collection of boathouses alongside the Klein River

Coot Club

Coot Club, set between the majestic Maanschynkop mountains and the shimmering waters of Walker Bay, is an enchanting destination in the picturesque Garden Route.

The property features a mix of traditional cottages and contemporary boathouses, each designed to blend seamlessly with the surrounding natural beauty. Families can choose from a variety of accommodations, including nautical-themed boat houses like Port, Starboard, and the new Stern, or the charming Leeward Large cottages, which offer spacious, comfortable living with stunning views of the lagoon and fynbos gardens.

The setting is perfect for a wide range of activities. Families can enjoy kayaking or stand-up paddleboarding on the tranquil lagoon, or explore the sandy trails and scenic pathways around Walker Bay. For those seeking relaxation, the nearby Stanford village, with its quaint streets and rich heritage, offers delightful dining and shopping experiences. The area is also renowned for birdwatching, with numerous species spotted along the Klein River and surrounding fynbos.

During whale season, from June to December, the coast comes alive with Humpback and Southern Right Whales, visible from just a short distance away. Whether you’re looking to adventure or simply unwind, Coot Club provides a perfect blend of nature, luxury, and comfort for the whole family.
