4 nights at Bay Park Adventure Centre

In the middle of the bush, in the middle of suburbia! Close to the beach and shops for supplies if needed. Plenty of space, but flat ground is limited. Heaps of ground wood to keep you warm and big fire drums to burn it in. Hot water was patchy, but grateful for toilets and showers that were there. Comms were great and were made to feel welcome, thankyou.

4 nights at Bay Park Adventure Centre

We had a fantastic stay at Bay Park. The site was spacious and peaceful, offering plenty of room to spread out and relax. The facilities were spotless and clearly very new, which made the experience even more comfortable. Our host was friendly and welcoming, and we were pleasantly surprised to find power available, even though only a water tap was listed in the description - a great bonus! Another highlight was the generous firewood bundle, which easily lasted us four nights and kept the campfire going strong. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a well-maintained, quiet escape with thoughtful touches.

Weekend Trip to Bay Park Adventure Centre

Loved pur stay at the Bay Park and qlukd definitely go back for longer stays as we didnt get to use any of the kids' activities. We love the Bay Park for its easy access to the beach and shops, as well as for the huge sites and the tranquillity despite being very close to the town centre; it beats the foreshore campgrounds around the area anytime of the day! Kids love the communal fireplace have made friends during our brief stay. The shower was on the colder side; it wasnt an issue for such a brief stay, but thought we'd mention it for management review. Loved the personalised welcome where I didnt even have to step out of the car nor wait to be taken to our site.

The campsite was really good! Would definitely go again. We packed things the day before and were worried about how it would turn out, but we got a fire package and everything turned out really well. And the camp area was nicely secluded with a sense of wilderness and adventure, but still feeling safe and communal. SLAYYYED!!

Great site for using as a base for visiting beaches along the Bellarine Peninsula. Not far from the Bellarine Coastal Trail for a mostly easy walk to St Leonards (2.8 kms) and beyond. Sites are relatively flat with plenty of room, can be windy at times. Damian kindly provided a fire pit for my use.

Fantastic flat grassy sites, heaps of room, and well spread apart. Alli and Damian are great hosts and were more than happy to help with anything we needed. 5 minute walk along a pretty country lane way to the beach which we did everyday. Also took the longer 45min walk along the beachside trail to St Leonard’s pub for a few drinks, steak, and a Parma. Fantastic! Will be back!
