Nice getaway place short drive from Melbourne.
Pros:

The location is great. Serene and quiet, with lots of birds and we also spotted kangaroos on the golf course in the morning! The dinner menu was fantastic, my husband has been raving about the Cavatelli dish he had for dinner all day!

Cons:

The bathroom is a bit dated, shower is rather small but having a bathtub is a plus.

Great for a short stay and a local wedding.
Pros:

Breakfast was fantastic, having a large variety. Room was large, clean and comfortable. Lodge Bar was open for snacks and drinks on Friday and Saturday afternoon. We were lucky enough to have good weather and were able to sit out on patio and walk alone tracks through the golf course. Room service was great.

Cons:

If I'm being picky; shower head wasn't great. Water pressure was fine but the spray its self wasn't adjustable and toilet seat were a little uncomfortable.
