It is within this setting that The Emerald Resort is located. Reached by a pleasant drive through magnificent scenery from Melbourne within the desired 45 minutes. The temperate and invigorating climate provides Melbournians with a breath of fresh air together with the atmosphere of the mountains, as popular today as it was earlier this century when the original development was conceived. Nested in the heart of the magnificent Dandenong Ranges, The Emerald Golf & Country Resort can quite rightly lay claim to being one of the most picturesque and aesthetically pleasing golf courses in Victoria. The Emerald Golf & Country Resort has its genesis in the vision and foresight of two Melbourne businessmen, Bert S. Stillwell and Harry W. Treganowan. In 1923, the pair conceived the idea of establishing a country golf club that would serve as an attractive and exclusive retreat for city businessmen. Emerald Resort is please to offer the following facilities and look forward to serving you. |
