Come and escape to this ultimate ski chalet either for winter skiing at Australia's premier ski resort or to enjoy the cool summer air, exploring Mt Hotham’s extensive bushwalking and cycling experiences and relax with friends.
Designed to replicate the historical pioneering spirit of the area, the Chalet is clad in stone and cedar wood with a steep roof and internally is fully equipped, including private equipment drying room/storage, making it one of the best on offer on the mountain for your family mountain escape.
located close to iconic Hotham amenities including The General Store (Pub open year-round) and Jack Frost Bar & Restaurant.
In winter, it is a short 100m walk to access the Mt Hotham downhill ski trail and lift network either via Frosty Drop ski run (to the Davenport Access Trail) or the free ski shuttle bus stop to the Big D ski area (family beginner area) or Hotham Central.
In summer, the main Mt Hotham to Dinner Plain walking/cycling trail, The Brabralung Trail, passes right by the property.
The Chalet is nestled in a quiet location amongst snow gums away from resort machinery/snow making machines.
The Chalet has its own dedicated private external entrance, accessible without the need to move through shared internal zones or foyers. Fully equipped with leather couches, satellite/smart TV, DVD, free Wifi, large refrigerator, stove-top, range hood, convection oven, microwave and dishwasher Towels, linen and basic condiments for up to 7 guests included. Your private laundry and downstairs toilet come off the main living area.
Bedrooms and bathrooms are situated upstairs. The King Size master has an en-suite and small balcony. The other bedroom has a tri-Bunk and standard bunks (5 beds). A second bathroom is conveniently accessed from the upstairs hallway adjacent to the second bedroom.
PARKING – Outside of the declared snow season (Oct – May), parking is available immediately adjacent to the property – approx. 20 metre walk to the front door. During winter (June – Sept) there is ample short term parking (30 mins) around 100 Meters from the chalet on the side of the Great Alpine Road (the entry road into the resort). You can park there to unload luggage and passengers/family into the warm chalet. Once unloaded, the driver needs to take the vehicle to park at one of the resort overnight car parks which is around 2Klms further down the Rd (signage is great with parking officers directing traffic most of the time). There is a free/frequent village bus service operating in the resort that will pick you up from the long term car park and bring you back to the chalet (closest bus stop is “Jack Frost” around 100m from the Chalet) – that whole process normally only takes 10-15mins. There is a snow clearing service provided during the winter months to clear external access and doorways/stairs - normally completed well within 24hrs of snow fall, this is included in the rental accommodation fee.
