Andrea's White House: Retreat with country charm to relax, rejuvenate & connect

Escape to Andrea's White House Retreat
Nestled on 5 acres of pristine bushland, our charming, fully self-contained two-bedroom retreat offers the perfect escape. Whether you're seeking a peaceful getaway for two or a small family adventure, this is the ideal destination.

Experience the best of both worlds: exhilarating snow activities in winter and exciting summer adventures right at your doorstep. After a day of exploration, unwind with a BBQ on the Baby Weber Q, pour a glass of wine, and enjoy a breathtaking sunset. Keep an eye out for our friendly local wildlife—like the kangaroo family or a curious wombat—who may stop by to join in the sunset view. It’s a slice of nature’s magic that you won’t want to miss!

Reconnect with nature and your loved ones in our cozy retreat. It’s a space where relaxation meets adventure, and cherished memories are made.

Explore the beauty of the Snowy Mountains with us.

The Retreat Offers:
• Fully equipped kitchen, lounge, and dining area
• Smart TV, air conditioning, underfloor heating, and wood fire (firewood supplied)
• WIFI
• Outdoor Alfresco room with BBQ and seating
• King-sized bedroom
• Second bedroom with two single beds (small additional charges apply)
• Full bathroom with separate shower and bath
• Toys, books, games & DVDs for the young and young at heart
• Highchair available upon request
• Laundry facilities
• Convenient parking at your door

The space is larger than you might expect, and the comfort and charm of country living will make you feel right at home.

For coffee lovers, we have an espresso machine with complimentary coffee to start your day off right!

We’ve thought of everything to make your stay easy and enjoyable—just bring your food and wine, and everything else is here, ready for you to relax and unwind.

Additional Notes:
This is a dual-key property, offering an option for extended families. Both accommodations are separate, with no shared spaces or car parking.
There’s an interconnecting door between the two units that is locked for your privacy.

On occasion, we live on-site in separate accommodations, and we’re here to assist if needed. We love welcoming our guests, offering local tips, and ensuring you enjoy everything the Snowy Mountains has to offer.
