So is it too early or too cold to be thinking about the Nationals just yet?

Just wondering where everyone is staying this year? Its always nice to have everyone together, even if its just for cheap laughs and quick emptying of Gary's Esky.

Cheers All

-Everyone who is thinking of coming don't let accommodation be the reason you don't come!!-
Paynesville is like any other holiday place so hotels and caravan parks will book out early etc, Eagle Point is 5 mins drive (if that)
I presume Tim's will be a hot spot but he can speak for himself :)the caravan park is almost next door to Tim's

then there's my place (acre & a half) of free camping and power a couple of minutes walk away
PASS THE WORD AROUND TO ANYONE CONSIDERING COMING

I've updated the Nationals Page on the Mozzy website with camping information - which I'll reproduce below.

National Titles 2013 - Information

We can camp as a group at the Eagle Point Caravan Park, which is about 6 minutes drive from the sailing club, and on the shore of Lake King. This is a very popular family camping destination so it will start to book up soon.

This diagram below shows an area of the park that would suit a group of Mosquitoes. The sites available at the time of writing (May) are highlighted. At the top of the diagram is the lake, to the right is School Road, and to the left is the Fauna Reserve.



The sites prefixed UP are (not surprisingly) unpowered and the sites marked 1,2,3,E,D,B, & Z are powered sites. The unpowered sites are adjacent to School Road so trailers can be parked next to these sites (there is no fence on the boundary - only posts to stop vehicles - there are also no gates or pin-codes at this park).

Prices are around $24 for unpowered and $34 for powered sites.

Call the Eagle Point Caravan Park on 03 5156 1183 to make bookings.

They also have some cabins available.



There is also grass for camping (or parking a caravan), and plenty of extension leads, at my place (about 600m from the Caravan Park).

For anyone who prefers to book a house I recommend contacting
Gippsland Lakes Escapes.
