Accommodation for groups

Weekends and school holidays are dedicated to hosting group accommodation.

We provide a city camp base for community groups from country Victoria, interstate, overseas and metropolitan Melbourne. Many come to experience and learn about life in the city or perhaps to use our facilities for team building, training or rehearsals. 

Groups include:

  • sporting teams

  • groups with special needs

  • performance groups including dance, calisthenics and music

  • faith-based groups.

Versatile space

Our Camp sleeps 128 people in dormitory accommodation and is enjoyed by a variety of groups each year. With two large multi-purpose rooms and a recreation hall with stage there is ample space for meetings, rehearsals, performances, workshops, games or just chilling out.
