Detailed Reviews
We stumbled across this beautiful village and Caravan Park. From the moment we walked into the office to check in Ray was a wonderful host and made us very welcome, given it was a long weekend we were very lucky to get 2 powered sites side by side. Ray gave us a great run down of activities and amenities available during our stay. We took his advise and visited the RSL which was a very short walk from the park and had a very nice meal. The disability bathroom was excellent and very well equiped for one of our parties needs. We would not hesitate to recomend this park and praise Ray and Belinda for their very warm hospitality.

Found this caravan park and loved the rustic charm. Very treed and quiet. Loved being able to have an open fire too, which is not the usual in caravan parks. Close to the lake and some very pretty spots to sit and enjoy the amazing sunset. The amenities were extremely clean and the shower water was hot-very important. Camp kitchen spotless. Price for powered site was very reasonable. Ray who checked us in was very chatty and helpful- we will definitely be back.

We thank you very much for taking the time to review our park, I do apologize for the delay in replying. We are very happy you enjoyed our park and being able to have a fire pit. We definitely do have some of the best sunsets in Loch Sport. We are glad you found our amenities & camp kitchen extremely clean and that our site tariff was reasonable. We have kept our off peak tariff at $35.00 now for a few years. We look forward to welcoming you back when you can return sometime in the future.

We have a caravan here at Loch Sport Caravan Park and are very happy with the park... The toilets and showers are clean the owners are polite and friendly. We always look forward to coming here and have lots of fun.
Yes there are mosquito's but at this time of year so does everywhere else and repellent works very well.
It's animal friendly, peaceful relaxed atmosphere, nice sandy Lake to swim in, great surf beach and we love it!

We recently spent 3 nights here in our camper trailer. While Loch Sport is a beautiful location with lots of native wildlife, including many kangaroos and bird species throughout the park, there are also gigamtic mosquitos...so be prepared for that!
The caravan park itself leaves much to be improved upon. It's a 1960's style....and never been updated - tired looking with limited shower and toilet facilities, especially when you're sharing with the
multiple school groups who were there at the same time as us! At $35 per night
for a powered site, it isn't worth it. The water is bore water and was so bad our dog wouldn't drink it. We left her water bowl out thinking the kangaroos would drink it. They didn't, and there was a huge amount of sediment in the bottom the
following morning. We had to buy our own water. The lighting is poor, the signage is bad, and the park map out of date, which makes it difficult to find your site. It wasn't
just us, we saw other arrivals driving around in circles looking for their site too. The cleaning of the amenities block was
pretty haphazard at best. There are close to none of the add ons available at other parks for the same price. There isn't even access to free wi-fi. In short a premium overnight cost at a very run down caravan
park. I suggest if you want to go to this area, and it is beautiful...stay somewhere
else! We suggest Golden Beach or Paradise Beach for a camping experience.

Thanks very much for taking the time to review our park. We do apologize if our park did not meet your expectations. I will just address a couple of the issues you outlined. Firstly out park is a rustic natural park which thousands of campers have thoroughly enjoyed when staying with us. Our amenities are cleaned daily and guernied thoroughly on a very regular basis, if you had a problem with the amenities over the 3 days you stayed you didn't come and address it with us. We would have addressed it immediately. Our prices are much cheaper than some of the other parks in close proximity, we have not increased the off peak tarriff in quite a while. I am not sure why you went to the top of the park where we had a school group, as you were asked to stay down the bottom area where you would not have had to be near them. Too have so many problems without coming to address us is very disappointing. We always advise our campers to come prepared with repellent as unfortunately we do sometimes have mozzies, however they are not just in our park and good repellent works well, also being able to have a campfire helps keep them at bay. Unfortunately we do not have the luxury of town water, we have an artision bore. When people make a booking we always explain we have bore water so they can bring water with them. We drink it daily without any problems. We have never had a complaint about it up until now. We wish you luck with your camping in the future.

We visited out of season for an overnight stay: in the section of the park we were put, there was no-one else present. This meant an amenities block to ourselves.
The amenities themselves were excellent, our site well sheltered. There was Telstra mobile coverage. I can imagine the place would be wall-to-wall people at peak times.
A bit out of the way for an overnight: probably warrants a stay of a few days.

We stayed for 4 nights. Loch Sport is a small town, sandwiched between 90 Mile Beach and the Gippsland Lakes. It's a perfect quiet getaway for those into watersports and fishing. The Holiday Park is located right on on the Gippsland Lakes. Perfect for fishing. It's a short 10 minute drive to 90 Mile Beach. The supermarket and post office are an easy 10 minute walk along the beach front. We camped in a tent. Campfires are permitted (except on total fire ban days). Firewood is available at the office for $15. This place is super dog-friendly. Amenities were clean and maintained daily. Golf course is immediately next door. Make sure you take your citronella & insect repellent - Loch Sport is notorious for it's mosquitos!! Please note that Tripadvisor has made a mistake with this listing. The town name is LOCH SPORT (not LOCH).

Responded 16 Aug 2011
Thank you for this review. I do my best to enhance the beautiful surroundings with natural, large sites and well-maintained amenities. (Wish I could do something about the mosquitoes but yes, usual repellent methods do help.) Of course, there are some visitors who may not appreciate that they are in a small community and clean up after themselves. Just hope that if there is a problem, I will be the first that visitors will advise and not just make it a whinge-issue. After all, if I know, I can fix. If I don't know, I can't. So I am glad you discovered our hidden town with the Gippsland Lakes and 90 Mile beach. Say Hi when you visit again. :-)) Michael. Resident Owner / Manager.

What a brilliant place! We can't thank Belinda and Ray enough for their friendly welcoming manner and for creating and maintaining a clean, spacious caravan park in a great location.
With a group of 21adults and 11children we spent a week camping over New Years and took advantage of all that was to offer! The beautiful 90mile beach was a short 5-10min drive away, and the lake and foreshore (perfect for boats and jet skis or just a swim with the kids) was at our fingertips. We managed to book out the local bowling club for an afternoon (located at the back of the caravan park) and had a great time playing barefoot bowls and enjoying a drink. The Marina pub had a great location with grass and foreshore out the front and meals were good. And the RSL (also located at the back of the caravan park) provided good priced drinks and TV for the boys to watch the cricket!
It was explained to us upon booking that the caravan park was still a work in progress under new management... But we couldn't find fault with anything.
The bathrooms were cleaned twice a day and well maintained. The Camp Kitchen allowed those without cooking facilities to cook and clean dishes without issue. The large grass area and playground kept kids entertained and was a perfect spot for a game of cricket and throwing the frisbee.
The powered camp sites were large enough to fit a large camper/caravan and tent as well as a shade sail (or up to 2 large size tents and shade tents). Some camp sites were newly cleared with grass not yet grown... Work in progress!
We were also able to bring dogs and have fires at night in the provided fire pits - a perfect end to a nice relaxing day!
Even the notorious Mozzies weren't as bad as we were expecting but perhaps because we were well prepared!!
All in all we had a wonderful time and are looking forward to another visit some time very soon!

We went to the park knowing that it had new ownership, but wanted to give it a go and support them. Belinda sounded really nice and honest about the park, that it wasn't a Big 4 (we weren't looking for one), and they were still working on it. Unfortunately, we discovered the sites very small (think sardines), ungroomed and I hadn't realised Loch Sport is the mosquito capital of Australia. Don't bother with essential oil based products here-stick to the super strong toxic stuff. We decided to leave after two nights even though we had paid for seven as my wife fell ill. As we checked out she asked if there was a waiting list so they could fill the space, to which Belinda's partner said, 'oh yeah,' like it was the Sofitel and of course people were dying to stay there. However, when my wife suggested a refund if they booked it, he snorted a big 'Na! No way! No refunds!' and turned his back. Not even an 'oh how terrible, I'm sorry you're unwell, how about a voucher to come again,' just a simple 'NA!' I would not recommend this park to anyone. There are too many other amazing places to go.

I am sorry I have not responded to you review earlier. Firstly I would like to say I am very sorry you did not enjoy your stay here with us. I would like to respond to your comments individually. I will just t summarize to other holiday makers that will read this review, some information on our park. We took over the park last May. We have worked tirelessly since then to get the park to where we are now, for example we have taken at least 200 tandem trailers of green waste out of the park to make the sites more usable. We also have 61 annual families in the park and they have all been very happy with the improvements we have been making. The park was severely run down and we still have a lot of work to do, which we are currently doing. I did tell you it was not a big four, I usually explain to new campers our park is a very natural bushy park. It is very large, 25 acres and is very spread out with lots of wild life that includes kangaroos, koalas, possums and kookaburras just to mention a few. It is situated beside the Gippsland Lakes and is four kilometers from the beautiful ninety mile beach. You came in our busiest week between Christmas and New Year and from all of our feed back we had very happy campers, with already 12 return sites booked for this Christmas from first time campers to this park. You said our sites were like sardines, which surprised us as nearly all the sites can accommodate a caravan, boat and a car and some can even have two cars. I am sorry you had to leave due to illness, we do not refund, however I would offer to people who have to leave to come back at another time and we would offer a site an no charge, when we are able too. The mosquitos can kept at bay by store bought sprays or some people make their own solution that works very well. I am very sorry you labelled our park the worst caravan park, as we really try our best to please everybody.

The Owners are so Helpful and Friendly The place itself is Huge and Beautiful place.Facilities showers are cleaned daily. The general store and post office are 5mins by car. 90 mile beach 10mins car and Lake Victoria is just a walk away from caravan park. The whole experience was Absolutely Awesome.

We have regularly visited loch sport caravan park over the past 22years. We enjoy the larger campsites and natural bush surrounding with an amazing number of native birds and animals.New park owners Belinda and Ray have breathed new life into the park with careful clearing and landscaping. They also have a great sense of humour and are very helpful and happy to help with problems to make your stay stress free. Amenities although dated are regularly cleaned and in good order,with plenty of hot water. Dogs are permitted with strict regulations to keep your dogs on leash at all times, unfortunately some people do not leash their dogs but a quick call to the office at any time will solve this problem. Our children now bring their children as its a safe comfortable environment for them to enjoy.The camp kitchen has recently been updated and is kept clean and in good working order. At times mosquitoes can be a problem but greatly improved from earlier years, mosquito repellents and Mozzies coils work well. Easy access to the lake and a short car trip to 90 mile beach make the park a great place to stay .There is also large cleared area with play equipment for children. We hope that we can continue to return to loch sport caravan for many years to come.
