    With this post I’m celebrating life - I am almost at 1 million Google Maps contributions views!!!!! Say what??? Its been a journey full of passion, love, wonders & seeing & exploring the world through my eyes, (well with my mobiles camera). From my home in Mutare, Zimbabwe, Africa to The Middle East & to the rest of the world… this life is surely a journey & we will all get there & reach the skies! It started as a hobby & it still is.. from Level 1 to Level 7💁🏼‍♀️ I will do this over & over again in this lifetime. Much appreciation to Google maps for making this easy for us to share our experiences to the world! Hoping many have found the photos & reviews helpful. Cheers to more life, goodness, mercy, love & joy all the rest of our lives. Its from glory to glory to glory.

    It looks beautiful and well taken care of. Mowed lawns, neat environment. Good for a braai out, picnics, small outdoor gatherings etc. Good for kids too.

    This place is no longer "The Ponds" but "The Pits". All the fishing ponds were dry - not a single drop of water. It looked like they purposely drained all the ponds. The staff need to enforce the rules. Big sign on entry saying no load music, but there was a group that had brought their mobile sound system and the music was so loud which was very inconsiderate of them considering that the park had many families/groups. We all had to spend the afternoon listening to horrible irritating music.And the staff did nothing about it! The grass around the picnic area was not cut which probably contributed to the huge number of flies and bees in the park. I am sure that management could of done something about it. The staff need to enforce the rules of the park. I won't be visisting this place for a long time...

    Tranquil serene and picturesque. Unfortunately the water has dried up in the ponds and so that limits the available activities. But as a picnic spot, its a great choice especially if you do not want to go too far out of town. Bring your own food and drinks and water.

    Entry fees are a bit on the expensive side and the service needs to improve especially since one has to pay for every single thing (braii stand, wood etc). Amenities could be improved too especially the grounds and dam which could be spruced up. Apparently, it used to be way better than it is...

    Lots of space and great location for events. However not a lot of activities which means you have to be creative with your own entertainment. Grounds are well maintained.

  • 4/5 Kundishora M. 3 months ago on Google • 113 reviews New
    Best for picnics and family / romantic outings.

  • 5/5 Shepherd C. 5 years ago on Google • 24 reviews
    Nice picnicking venue, cum events location as well. I am one of the many photographers that also use this pace as a photoshoot location. Oh yeah Kingfisher boasts a beautiful sunset reflected in the pond that sits right at the centre of it. It has both a rustic and romantic feel.

    Terrible, even the decline of the rozvi state was better than this, no back up electricity, no functional activities even the water slide is just a tent and they spray a bit of water with a horsepipe. The price doesn't justify the place, it should be free at the least. This is a place to please your kids at the expense of your own excitement

    It's a nice place. My only problem with the place is the toilet. There is just 1 toilet which is not enough for a place that has more than 100 people at any given weekend. Also when I went there was no light in the toilet.

  • 3/5 Trevor T. 3 months ago on Google • 38 reviews New
    An outdoor party at this place is a good idea, ice atmosphere and sometimes there is a dj. Braai stands are always available and i think charcoal as well!

  • 3/5 Bruce L. 2 months ago on Google • 28 reviews New
    Haven't been there - it's near my business. Good reputation.

  • 4/5 Fungai M. 3 months ago on Google • 17 reviews New
    Amazing hangout environment.

  • 3/5 Amazing C. 1 year ago on Google
    It was ok. The grass was green and place is perfect for picnics, birthdays, and you can enjoy other family and friends get together meeting in an outdoor setup. You get go for zip lining and you also do tag of war. Braai stands and charcoal are provided for a charge.

  • 3/5 Albert C. 2 years ago on Google
    The place need an uplift ..it's so nice but the water space need full maintenance

  • 4/5 pamela m. 2 years ago on Google
    It's a very good place fo a family outing,and the kids get to enjoy different activities like jumping castle,volleyball and others

  • 2/5 Garikai Edwin M. 2 years ago on Google
    Shame there is no more water in that Dam, it helped much to give a new ce ambience. @$5 entry it's a rip off. Only made ok coz you watch the kids.

  • 4/5 Prudence N. 2 years ago on Google
    The zip line can be improved on taking back the rope to the start. Employee manning it and children's trampoline accepted bribes to let drunk overweight adults on.

  • 4/5 edmore m. 2 years ago on Google
    Great park to rest .family friendly

  • 4/5 Emperor_skites 2 years ago on Google
    Its a nice place to host outdoor events and still enjoy nature's beauty

  • 4/5 Tkulz98 M. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome great moment there its a nice place to be, cool temperatures

  • 1/5 Nothando N. 2 years ago on Google
    Serious security concerns. More than 3 cars were broken into and personal valuables were stolen, not to mention damages to the cars. Kingfisher staff on duty were not even sympathetic the only thing they could tell us was that they put a disclaimer “park at owners risk” yet the car park is within Kingfisher. It becomes very difficult to justify the $5 entrance fee at least invest a $1 towards parking security.

  • 4/5 Victor V. 2 years ago on Google
    Great area to visit for a chilled picnic

  • 3/5 bokanibuhe m. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice place to chill, however the dam was totally dry!

  • 2/5 Tinashe R. 3 years ago on Google
    Beautiful spaces but water situation very disappointing

  • 3/5 Agnes A. 1 year ago on Google
    Lack of adequate directional signs makes the place difficult to find. They have too few ablution facilities. This place could easily be a great go to place ...but the over reliance on old infrastructure puts a real damper in things.

  • 4/5 Tawanda M. 3 years ago on Google
    No water

  • 3/5 Thelma Chaza- T. 2 years ago on Google
    Good airy place to spend with family. The place is excellent for children to play and run.

  • 5/5 Ras M. 3 years ago on Google
    Cool place u can also do fishing

  • 3/5 Kuzivakwashe C. 4 years ago on Google
    Had a fun chilled picnic with the girls. Enjoyed the place, however it needs proper management of activities. It's a lot of things in one place. They must place similar activities in one area and others in another. As consumers we are looking for different things, one day I might be there for a loud birthday party the next I may be looking for a chilled spot for a quiet picnic.

  • 3/5 Benjamin M. 1 year ago on Google
    A bit more investment is required to cater for everyone and make it realise its full potential. Outdoor plugs, more tents, etc. But it's a great picnic area for the whole family

  • 4/5 Panagis T. 10 months ago on Google
    Very well maintained. Great day out for the whole family

  • 2/5 Edmond C. 3 years ago on Google
