Pirate's Cove Lodge is a 150 person workforce housing camp, built using 137 pre-fabricated modules and 2 pre-engineered metal buildings for easy construction in a remote area. The main building is built into a hill, following contour of the site to reduce land development and capital costs.

Each dorm room has a private ensuite and hotel-style amenities. The main lodge features fireplaces, a theatre, a recreational centre, first-class fitness facility, full-sized gymnasium, state of the art kitchen and dining room, meeting rooms and offices.

South-facing exposure for solar gains, clerestory lighting, greywater recycling, rainwater harvesting, landscaping for storm water retention and triple glazing are just some of the features that make this building unique.

Pirate's Cove Lodge was awarded 1st Place in the 2013 Modular Building Institute Awards of Distinction for Permanent: Commercial Housing: Over 10,000 sq. ft.
