I like Mount Hotham http://www.mthotham.com.au/ and Mount Buller http://www.mtbuller.com.au/Winter/ come snow season.
Hotham Alpine Resort is 4.5 hours drive from Melbourne, offers 320 hectares catering to skiing for all ability levels, tobogganing, dog sled tours, snow mobile rides, and has 18 bars and restaurants.
Buller is 3 hours away from Melbourne, 300 hectares for skiing, 2 toboggan parks with snow machines, and has over 30 bars and restaurants in Mt Buller village.
Falls Creek is the best place to go if you're a confident skier. It's the biggest ski resort in VIC, with 90 runs and 14 ski lifts http://www.fallscreek.com.au/.
For more beginner ski runs and family friendly facilities I'd go with Mt Buller. Bonus: Kids stay free in June and Sep! http://www.mtbuller.com.au/Winter/plan-your-visit/accommodation/kids-stay-free
Falls or Hotham if you want good snow and good runs.
