Booked a two night stay in the Fairway room; very clean, spacious and our room had a spa bath. Not far from Ballarat CBD, pool/spa and basic gym facilities. On site restaurant and bar if you want to stay purely on scene.

What a great resort especially if you travelling with kids. There is 2 restaurants to eat at that were great, a kids play area in one of them, my 3 year old loved that. The pool area is great with a kids pool too and a spa area. A games room for the bigger kids and a playground outside. Our room overlooked the golf course with views of kangaroos every nigjt hopping around. Our room was very nice and clean nothing to complain about. Overall great 3 nights spent here will be back again.
