The space
The Residence at Andrea’s White House is a beautiful country-style home set on 5 acres of natural bushland, offering space, comfort and privacy while still being close to the many adventures of the NSW Snowy Mountains both winter and summer.

It is the perfect base for winter snow fun adventures being close to both Thredbo and Perisher ski resorts.

Escape to your own private Snowy Mountains home away from home in Crackenback—set on five acres of peaceful bushland just minutes from Jindabyne, Thredbo and Perisher.

Spacious, warm and designed for relaxing after a day in the snow, this is where winter slows down.

Wonderful for extended families or intergenerational getaways, the Residence is a place to gather, reconnect and relax.

Wake to birdsong, breathe the fresh mountain air and enjoy the peaceful surroundings — a place where you can truly unwind and reconnect with nature.

After a day exploring the region, return to the warmth of the double-sided wood fire, share a meal together, play games, or watch the sunset from the alfresco room.

Comfortably sleeping up to 10 guests, the Residence offers generous living spaces and thoughtful touches to make your stay easy and relaxing.

Neighbourhood highlights

Being on 5 acres you get a real sense of being away from it all and back to nature, take some time to get away from it all with family, friends and loved ones.
We all need the opportunity to unwind from our busy day to day life. This is a great option to enjoy some the peace after a fun day out exploring. A place to relax and reconnect with family and friends...so important for us all.
We are close to the Kosciuszko National Park where you will find all the summer action including alpine walks, spectacular wildflowers, Mountain bike riding for all levels, fly fishing...a walk to the top of Mt. Kosciuszko will have you standing on the top of Australia.
Thredbo which is a year round Alpine resort is an easy 20 minute drive. On offer are great restaurants, golf, swimming, fly fishing and the very popular mountain bike trails. These trails are for all levels and provide a lot of fun.
The local restaurant Crackenback Farm is a 5 minuted drive and his highly recommended for very good food and wine.
We are very close the famous Wild Brumby Distillery - a schnapps tasting is not to be missed...you can enjoy breakfast, lunch, cake and coffee it is a stunning place to visit with sculptures scattered around the grounds to add to the scene.

In winter you would be close to the snow action. Thredbo ski resort is an easy 20 minute drive and it is a 5 minute drive to the Ski Tube which will take you straight to the Perisher ski fields.

One of the best things about the location is you completely avoid the traffic in Jindabyne when accessing the snow fields !

Lives in Crackenback, Australia
This is me standing on the top of Mt. Kosciusko watching the sunrise. This is an experience not to be missed if you are visiting outside of winter .... it was super special effort for me as I am not an early morning person but it was so worth it! After living and working in Sydney we have returned the Snowy Mountains to live and pursue other business opportunities. We love the quiet country location of Andrea's White House and all the summer and winter activities on offer. Still working of course but now also enjoying the rural scene. We live on site but in separate accommodation which is great as it allows us to meet our guests and put a face to a name. One of the things I enjoy the most is helping people to get to know the Snowy Mountains, there is a lot to explore and experience in all seasons.
