About Harbour Lodge Chowder Bay
Harbour Lodge is a group accommodation lodge in the historic Chowder Bay precinct at Mosman, run by the Land's Edge Foundation, a not-for-profit outdoor education organisation. Most of its bookings are school camps, sporting teams and corporate retreats, but the lodge also takes private groups of friends, family and colleagues. The key point for a large celebration is that it is sole use: only one group stays at a time, so your group has the whole property to itself. The lodge sleeps up to 83 guests across 11 bunk rooms and 2 double/twin rooms, and every room looks out over the harbour. A large common room seats up to 80 for dinners, speeches or games, and comes with a projector, large screen, sound system and free wifi. You can book the stay fully catered or cook for yourselves in the kitchen, which has a gas oven, microwave, commercial appliances and cookware. There is also an outdoor learning area beside the lodge, wheelchair-accessible dining, heaters in winter and fans in summer. Land's Edge can add guided activities such as sailing, sea rafting and kayaking to a stay. Chowder Bay is a former military and maritime village set in bushland inside Sydney Harbour National Park, next to Clifton Gardens Reserve. Walking tracks lead from the lodge to Taronga Zoo, Balmoral Beach and Headland Park, and the bay itself is good for swimming, snorkelling and paddleboarding. Mosman's shops, supermarkets and pharmacies are a short drive away. The lodge can be reached by bus, ferry, car or on foot, and public transport is encouraged. Bunk-room layouts and shared facilities suit a big, easygoing group more than one after hotel-style privacy.

Would be 5 stars (great staff and rooms) except for for inadequate dinner meal (outsourced I believe). Our 40 senior fisheries undergrads were served a meal with veery small portions, with food running out for the last…

This campsite does exactly what we wanted for the purpose of our Leadership Camp for school Prefects. While the setup is basic, it is very comfortable with good food. Its only drawback is the limited breakout areas to do…
