Family Ski Holiday
My family and I are fortunate enough to get down to the snow regularly during the season and we always return to Cracken Back for a couple of those trips which makes it even more special, this trip did not disappoint. The accommodation and over all experience was fantastic and we will be back next season for sure.

I want to stay forever - says 6 year old
The property is gorgeous and a perfect size for our family - 2 adults and 1 child. It was very clean, in a great location, the fireplace and heated tiles were lovely. Cindy was a great communicator and was very kind to let us cancel last year in lockdown and then contacted us when bookings opened for 2022. My 6 year summed it up when she said "I want to stay in this house forever". We loved the info book. We loved our stay. Thank you.

My husband and I built Biancaneve in 2017. We truly believe that Crackenback and the surrounding spectacular Kosciusko National Park is a real hidden gem and just a beautiful corner of Australia.
We love going for the snow season, but we equally love everything you can do in the mountains and on the lake in the warmer months.

Upstairs has a breathtaking view of the mountains and overlooks the lake. It has a complete kitchen with a large fridge, 4-burner gas cooktop, oven, microwave, air fryer, dishwasher and Nespresso coffee machine (bring your own pods).
