Calvert William Wyeth

  General Notes:

After selling the business, he purchased several acres of prime land on the corner of Ramsey Parade and Scarborough Street, Inverloch in 1930 where he designed and built a first class guest house named 'Pine Lodge'. The first stone was laid by his first wife, Dorie and opened on 16/11/1930.
Again he experienced success with 90% of Inverloch's holiday makers staying at 'Pine Lodge'. Many high society Melbourne guests returned to 'Pine Lodge' year after year for their holidays. The guest house featured: nightly formal dinners with fresh sea-food, an ante-lounge for pre-dinner drinks, a large dining room with silver service, servants in dinner dress, a ballroom for dancing, billiard room, riding school, huge wood fires in the lounge room and ante-room during the winter, a 9 hole golf course, tennis courts and a swimming pool of Olympic size filled with sea water.

"Pine Lodge brought employment when there wasn't any. (1930's) It was ahead of its time with a sea water swimming pool and hot and cold running water in the rooms.
Pine Lodge was built by Mr. Wyeth on the land bound by Ramsey Boulevard, Sandy Mount Avenue, Scarborough and St. Kilda streets.
It was a first rate facility with a golf course, horses and tennis courts. Mr. Wyeth even had a passenger boat to take trips around the Inlet and was forever promoting Inverloch as the major tourist attraction of Victoria.
There was no employment here then except for Mr. Wyeth's button factory and the Wonthaggi State Coal mine, so the announcement of a resort was a boon for locals.
The Lodge grounds were landscaped, carriage and harness sheds built, and both the tennis courts and the nine hold golf course were finished and ready for the grand opening in November 1930.
Mr. Wyeth installed a Melbourne and Metropolitan Board of Works sewerage system, which was an unknown luxury in the country at the time and the resort also had its own electricity generator.
Ms. Wilson accepted a position at Pine Lodge and began a career as a Receptionist. Under Mrs. Wyeth's' guidance, a trained secretary and bookkeeper her job was to attend the desk, answer the switch board and be helpful to guest.
The lounge had a pianola, which meant so many evenings were spent singing and dancing the night away.
"Pine Lodge Private Hotel [in Inverloch, Victoria, Australia], was opened in 1930 with luxury accommodation, boasting running water, electricity, entertainment, and sporting activities, including a nine hole golf course, two tennis courts, and horse riding. Designed as a country club, it continued to run until 1981, attracting the social elite from Melbourne. Pine Lodge had the first telephone in Inverloch with the phone number of "7" and a 33 yard sea water swimming pool (when built, the largest private swimming pool in Australia). For five years during WW2 it was used as a Naval Hospital. It was demolished in 1985."

The person who built and owned Pine Lodge was a man named Calvert Wyeth. I remember Calvert Wyeth, however, as 'old Jim', which is what all the occult members called him and what I called him. Wyeth / 'old Jim's' eldest son was referred to as 'young Jim'. While Pine Lodge was a favourite destination for Melbourne's so-called 'social elite', it was also a favourite destination of Australian and global satanic network families as well. The festivals and celebrations that took place at Pine Lodge by these families were of the Jimmy Savile style.

Calvert married Lydia Dorothy Moore on 10 Jul 1921 in St Kilda, Victoria, Australia. The marriage ended in divorce on 15 Sep 1927. (Lydia Dorothy Moore was born in 1899 in Albert Park, Melbourne, Victoria and died in 1967 in New South Wales, Australia.)
