Rider`s Rest | Crackenback | Dream Stay | 2B

Rider’s Rest: A Lakeside Haven with Stunning Mountain Views

Discover the ultimate alpine escape at Rider’s Rest, a contemporary two-bedroom chalet tucked into the lakeside pocket of the resort. Boasting spectacular views of the Crackenback Range and overlooking a tranquil pond that flows into the main lake, this well-appointed retreat is ideal for couples, families, or small groups seeking comfort and convenience in a natural setting.

Location is key, and at Rider’s Rest, you’re just a short stroll to the resort’s most loved amenities, restaurants, golf, archery, trampolines, the children’s playground, and the indoor heated pool and gym are all within easy reach. Whether you’re unwinding lakeside, hitting the trails, or heading to the slopes, everything you need is close at hand.

Step inside and feel right at home. The open-plan living area is filled with natural light, featuring a modern kitchen with sleek dark stone benchtops, gas cooktop, microwave, dishwasher, and all the essentials for preparing a hearty meal after a day outdoors. The lounge invites you to kick back with a gas fireplace, comfy seating, a smart TV, and lush views of the outdoors.

Slide open the doors to a sun-drenched, north-facing balcony, perfect for your morning brew or a well-earned drink at golden hour.

Downstairs, you’ll find a full bathroom, laundry with washer/dryer combo, and a large drying room with heated boot racks and hanging space, ideal for snow gear or hiking equipment. Upstairs, the two generous king bedrooms offer plush beds, heating, and smart TVs. The master includes an ensuite with twin showerheads, underfloor heating, heated towel rails, and premium fittings. Both bedrooms are designed for rest, warmth, and privacy.

Additional features include:

• Double glazed windows for year-round comfort
• Underfloor heating in tiled areas
• Nespresso coffee machine
• Bluetooth stereo system
• Lockable ski/board rack
• Free Wi-Fi
• Parking directly outside the front door

Local favourites like the Wild Brumby Distillery and Crackenback Farmhouse are just a short drive away, ideal for a lazy lunch or a scenic afternoon out.

During your stay, you`ll have free access to a host of seasonal resort activities, including:

• Golf
• Archery
• Trampolines
• Indoor heated pool and sauna
• Gymnasium and fitness track
• Canoeing and paddleboarding
• Tennis courts
• Children’s playground
• Disc golf
• Mountain bike tracks

For a touch of luxury, indulge in additional paid services like the on-site spa and wellness centre, yoga sessions, fly-fishing lessons, and mountain bike rentals. In winter, ski hire is available on-site, making it a breeze to hit the slopes. A restaurant and general store within the resort ensure you have everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Rider’s Rest is the perfect base for a peaceful getaway, where you can relax and make lasting memories in a magical mountain setting.

Important Information:

• Private Accommodation: Please note, Rider’s Rest is privately managed, and therefore does not offer hotel-style services like on-site housekeeping or replenishments of items such as pillows, blankets, or TVs. If you require these services, we recommend booking a hotel instead.

• Check-In Time: Check-in is after 4pm, and unfortunately, we cannot accommodate early arrivals. If this is unsuitable, we kindly ask you to consider alternative accommodation.

• Travel Insurance: We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance, even for domestic holidays. Travel insurance can cover a range of issues, including trip cancellations, lost luggage, medical expenses, and unforeseen disruptions like COVID-19 amendments. It`s a valuable way to protect yourself during your adventures.

Come and experience the comfort of Rider’s Rest, where lakeside living meets effortless alpine style.
