Why Choose Coastal Forest Lodge
COASTAL FOREST LODGE IS A FULLY ACCREDITED CAMPSITE
Austalian Camping Association Accredited Camp Camping Association Victoria Member
Design, Layout & Facilities
Coastal Forest Lodge has been purpose designed and built for school groups and began operating in 2003.
   The layout offers ease of supervision – very important in these times (even at camp!)
   The layout includes a comfortable and central Teachers Retreat so you can have your own space (tea/coffee/ TV) but also keep an eye on what’s happening outside.
   The cabins are located around an alcove and clearly visible from the Teacher’s Retreat.
   All the cabins have ensuites so students do not have to leave cabins during the night for toilets.
   A central large Recreation Hall is available for passive indoor activities such as meetings, concerts, dances etc.
   The Dining Room is light and bright with separate wash up scullery.
   There is extensive under cover decking area / verandahs.
Location & Surroundings
   Easy travelling distance from Melbourne and surrounds, Mornington Peninsula, Ballarat and Geelong.
   Peaceful bush setting but still close to Anglesea (5.5ks) and Torquay (10ks).
   Beautiful property (200 acres) with landscaped gardens around the campsite and large bushland areas with walks, dams and abundant wildlife ( including kangaroos).
   Close to many local attractions.
Activities / Programs
Coastal Forest Lodge has a terrific selection of activities which are set up and easy to take – archery, orienteering courses, photo trail, mini-golf, low ropes course, environmental walks, bush shelters, initiative activities, basketball court etc.
   Coastal Forest Lodge can be a perfect base for groups wishing to use the local area and its attractions as well as the expertise of local activity / program providers – ECO LOGIC (environmental programs), GORATS (mountain bike riding/canoeing) and GRAW (surfing etc).
   Groups can use Coastal Forest Lodge activities or design and run a program of their own eg. Retreat, theme etc.
   Helpful advice / suggestions / assistance is always available
   An extensive Teachers Booklet (general information, camp layout and maps, camp rules, safety and emergency numbers, activity ideas, sample camp booklet pages etc.) is provided upon receipt of deposit from schools.
Catering
A quality catering service is provided which includes a balance of nutritious meals. Morning / afternoon teas and supper can be part of the package. The menu is designed to suit the needs and program of the group. Picnic lunches are available as required.
Value
   Coastal Forest Lodge offers a competitive price structure and a lower minimum number (for sole occupancy of the site) than a lot of other camps.
   Naturally, once the minimum number is paid for there is a complimentary ratio for staff of 1 : 10.
