What's special about AAC Dinner Plain?

  • Easy drive: Mt Hotham is only 10 minutes away by car or bus on a road which is neither steep nor twisty
  • All season resort: Dinner Plain is popular for summer activities in the high country, especially for Christmas/New Year, Easter and long weekends
  • Live in Manager/Cook during winter
  • Dinner included: In winter 6 meals per week are included in the very reasonable tariff.
  • Family friendly: Children's dinner at 6pm, adults at 7pm
  • Ensuites in all bedrooms
  • Secure ownership: Unlike other Australian ski resorts Dinner Plain village is freehold land. Members are shareholders in the lodge and the land it stands on, avoiding the lease issues that other lodges have to deal with.
  • Shares can be sold: Almost the full cost can be recovered with the sale of a share. Unlike many clubs, there is no large non-refundable joining fee. Only a small $250 fee is non-refundable.
