Owl Moon Ridge, Alpine Way, Crackenback. A unique mountain retreat.

**Escape to Owl Moon Ridge - Your Mountain Sanctuary**

**Location
Nestled in the majestic NSW Snowy Mountains, Owl Moon Ridge offers an unparalleled escape a short drive away from Thredbo, the ski tube, Jindabyne, and the renowned Kosciusko National Park. Conveniently situated yet blissfully secluded, this retreat is easily accessible from Sydney (5.5 hours) and Canberra (2.5 hours), making it the perfect destination for a weekend getaway or an extended mountain retreat.

**Unique Location:**
Perched beneath the grandeur of Crackenback Peak, Owl Moon Ridge enjoys a privileged position facing Northeast, shielding it from the harsh southern winds that often sweep through the valleys.

Bush getaway in the Snowy
We were so pleased that we decided to stay at Frogmouth Hutte in Crackenback. Staying at a rural property in the Snowy Mountains, close to both Perisher and Thredbo we had a great family experience for five adults and three children. The property has views to Jindabyne, the lake and the mountains plus there’s plenty of wildlife at your doorstep. We even had light snow on the first night. The house sleeps eight comfortably and has all the amenities of quality accommodation. We’ll be going back.

Quiet, beautiful & cosy
So glad we booked to stay out of the hustle and bustle of Thredbo Village. The 25 minute drive was well worth it to come back to a cosy house, spacious , full kitchen, fireplace & the bedding was extremely lush and comfortable.

Suberb space with ambience of alpine bushland!!
This was 100% a perfect space for our needs. We wanted to be away from everyone and be self sufficient! This place ticked all those boxes in style as well as provided a luxe space to relax in. The beds were the most comfortable I have ever slept in, the bedrooms were spacious and had block out blinds for the sleep ins, the gas heater warmed up the space well and there was the bonus of the ambience of a wood burner. There was a lot of attention to details, little things like the night lights, a loaded woodbox, well equipped kitchen and a welcome gift in the fridge all added to a great experience. Not to mention water views whilst settled in the alpine high country, visiting wallaby's makes for a perfect Aussie experience! Jo was fantastic with the communication and very welcoming!

Snow Holiday
This place was more than we expected , the central living and dining area was big enough for us all to hang out together , share meals and enjoy the fire. The outdoor fire pit was another great spot to spend time and the kids loved the yard with the rock climb and tree swing . Unfortunately our holiday was cut short due to lockdown but our host took the sting out of it by offering a refund for the nights we couldn’t stay We are hoping to be able to rebook some time again this season.
