Extremely clean well equipped property. Great location close to Snow fields .
Pictures don’t do this house justice. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Everything you need, very comfortable and warm. Will stay again, highly recommend!
This property is located off a picturesque lane in a great location for people after both active and less active experiences. The main residence was very comfortable and very well appointed including in the kitchen. Ideal for large family get togethers or with a group of friends at any time of the year. Would not hesitate to recommend it!
Beautiful house with gum trees and roos in the backyard. Close to ski tube.
Underfloor heating was lovely but made it a little too warm when we lit the fire! Every room has own ensuite which was a lovely luxury though water not quite hot enough so never touched cold tap in shower.
Overall very happy would visit again.
We rented Andrea's Whitehouse for 3 nights.
There were 4 couples, we each had our own bedroom & ensuite. The house is beautiful & so warm. We had -6c temperatures at night & we had to take our jumpers off inside ! Plenty of firewood, well equipped kitchen & a gorgeous fireplace. We saw deer & kangaroos out the back , beautiful country surroundings & very quiet. Only a short drive to the mountains & Jindabyne. We walked the Waterfall walk from Sawpit Creek which was beautiful......highly recommended stay !!!
Excellent property in a gorgeous setting. Beautifully maintained. Andrea was lovely and really easy to communicate with. Suited our whole family of kids, teenagers and adults.
This wonderful house is in the perfect location for a visit to the slopes - be it winter or summer! Our family of 5 and another family of 4 shared the residence, and there was plenty of room. All the beds were comfortable, the kitchen was incredibly well stocked and the surrounding grounds are tranquil and picturesque.
Great location between snowfields and close to walking tracks. Owners very welcoming and our stay was warm by the fire and comfortable. Couldn’t ask for anything more.
My partner and I stayed at Andrea's White House for a week with another couple. It felt like a perfect home away from home and we couldn't have wished for a nicer place to relax. Andrea and Greg are amazing hosts and the surrounding area is so beautiful, you don't want to leave.
The location is central to many attractions in the area as well as great restaurants.
Thanks so much Andrea and Greg for such a wonderful week in the snowy mountains region.
The location of this property is perfect for the snow fields, literally on your doorstep, easy drive to Thredbo, ski tube or Jindabyne/Perisher etc. The house itself is warm with under floor heating and a great fire. We particularly liked the separate TV room for the children. The only regret I have is that I wish I had booked the Retreat which is separate entry but attached to the house. The people there I am sure could hear us and we could hear them, but otherwise we managed well. I would highly recommend this house to stay at the snow, it is very accommodating for a large group. We found having our own bathrooms a very big plus. It is also close to some great places to eat and Jindabyne has lots of shops if you need supplies. The house is very well equipped as well. They've thought of everything. We had an issue with the power but this was rectified immediately by the manager. If you need somewhere to stay near Thredbo this is fabulous.

A wonderful home to enjoy a snowy mountains escape.
The White House was the perfect base for our ski holiday, conveniently located between Jindabyne and the ski tube. The house is extremely well equipped to enjoy delicious meals, cosy fireside reading or fun board games and incredibly charming as well as comfortable for a crowd. A very special property in every respect!
