Besides the heated pool, the kids can jump on the giant pillow, get active in our new under cover interactive Neos by iPlay, hit the games room, or ride the pedal karts. The more active guests can get in a hit of tennis on the tennis court, have a work out in our exercise room, or just heat up the barbecue and cook up a storm in the camp kitchen.

We are located across the road from the new Lucas Town shopping centre where there is a Woolworths supermarket, McDonalds, cafes, medical centre, and much more.

BIG4 Ballarat Windmill Holiday Park is the perfect base from which to explore Ballarat all year round, or just sit back and relax and let others do the exploring and tell you all about it when they get back!
