georgiapeach:
This Panoramio photo of "Mokoro Station" has some coordinates, maybe Chateau can tell us where we are? :lol:

This one may actually be too far North for us. ???
Remember that the Lodge is on the banks of the Thamalakane River, in case that helps.

I found this though,which is closer, might give us some idea:
From Maun
take the Shorobe road towards the Moremi Game Reserve. After approximately 10km along this road you will reach a circle, turn left and we are 3 km on the left hand side.
We transfer you to the mokoro station on the Boro River by motorboat (about an hour)

Unfortunately, it may be a generic term, like Plaidmoon said (see here, for example).

I did some checking on Google Earth and your site appears to be about 50-60 km north of Maun (or 30-35 miles). Using the driving time for another I calculated in the same area, it appears they would estimate about 3 hours driving time. In the real world, I'm guessing it probably be about 2 hours. But I've never been to Africa, so maybe it really would be 10-15 mph roads. It does appear very possible to use your site, but they would probably want to start fairly early in the morning, which is likely anyway.
