The Hunter Valley’s favourite fairway – Oaks Cypress Lakes Resort – adds another hole-in-one to its scorecard

Iconic Hunter Valley resort, Oaks Cypress Lakes Resort, is continuing to cement itself as one of the country’s most revered golfing destinations – now ranking among Australian Golf Digest Magazine’s Top 100 Courses, as announced today.


The coveted Top 100 award comes off the back of an exceptionally successful 12 months for the property, which not only saw Oaks Cypress Lakes Resort celebrate its 25th anniversary, but also take out the title of Australia’s Best Golf Hotel 2017 at the 4th Annual World Golf Awards against an outstanding line up of competitors, held in Spain in November.

General Manager of Oaks Cypress Lakes Resort, Mr Niel Mason, said the property was going from strength to strength, and today’s Australian Golf Digest’s announcement was further testament to this.

“We are proud of this recognition and will continue to raise the bar when it comes to delivering world-class golfing experiences for guests and visitors. We would like to thank the golfing industry, as well as the tourism authorities and thousands of players who have visited us over the years for their ongoing support.”

To celebrate its recent string of achievements, the championship 18-hole course is rolling out several initiatives and special packages to suit every type of golfing guest – amateur to elite!


Green fee rates at the Steve Smyers-designed resort course start at just $35.00* for members and $70.00* for non-members, while annual Country Club Memberships are now starting from $300.00* and include exclusive access to all resort facilities, as well as private invitations to members only special events, and discounts on accommodation, resort dining and the Pro Shop.

The premier golfing destination has also recently introduced a ‘Create Your Own Golf Day’ initiative; where corporate guests are invited to custom design their own unique golfing experience for their colleagues or clients – to host alongside an event specialist. Guests can tailor their golfing affair to include a variety of special inclusions, including food and beverage packages, entertainment and welcome gifts. Prices start at just $60.00* per person.

Dedicated to offering an exceptional tee-off experience for every golfer, the clubhouse also hosts annual fixtures for adept players, 8-week programs for juniors, monthly ‘Nine & Wine’ social competitions and after-office-hours packages.

Unveiled in 1992, the 18-hole course is home to abundant native Australian wildlife, manicured greens, dramatic fairway shapes, over 60 strategically located bunkers and an exhilarating 6,467m par 72 course, plus a new club car fleet complete with the latest Visage GPS system, which enables golfers to select the right club and conveniently order beverages and refreshments at the touch of a screen.

Located just two hours’ drive from Sydney and close to the Hunter Valley’s most popular attractions and experiences, Oaks Cypress Lakes Resort boasts 136 villas in a range of One, Two, Three and Four Bedroom configurations, and features three swimming pools, tennis courts, two restaurants and bars, gymnasium, and seven versatile function venues.
