The apartment was nice and Clean.Loving all the wild life and beautiful nature experiences.The activities around the resorts was good for family

Doing a good job with COVID

Mike T. S. Friends - 14/09/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Lakeside waterfront 2 bedder. OK, yes, really quite expensive, but also quite nice. The restaurant breakfast was really good and COVID-SAFE, as was using The Larder, who do excellent pizzas. The only disappointing item was the lack of dry firewood and kindling. Our first night was great as they had set the fire, but from then on the fireplace was useless.

All bases covered

Brett R. Couples - 12/09/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Excellent Accor Vacation Club stay at the end of the snow season. Room fantastic with all the required comforts, including fireplace to warm the place up. Restaurant food was great, with friendly service. Pity gym and pool was closed and Larder dining was closed. Understand that hotel is exploiting COVID to renovate pool area, but believe gym should have been able to be open with appropriate sanitising element to meet COVID requirements. All in all, still an excellent stay in a surreal part of the country.

Ben Y. Families - 01/09/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Can't really describe much as most of the services and facilities we wanted to use were not available for use due to Covid. We stayed in an AVC property so it was as usual quite well kept. However, I have raised a note about a problem with the sldiing door to the linving room for several years now and it still has not been sorted. The LHS sliding door of the living room leading to the balcony is oversized and need to be cut down. The oversized door does not interlock with the fixed panel and as such does not seal allowing wind and air to enter the living room.

Lovely resort disappointing room

Customer review rating 4.5/5

Anonymous Families - 23/08/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

The resort itself is fantastic especially if you have kids and pretty good location for thredbo. The rooms need major renovations and we feel ripped off for how much we paid. The pictures are deceiving of the room so when we arrived we are expecting the best and were extremely let down. We didn’t even want our kids to play on the floor as it seemed old and dirty. The only positive for the rooms would be the size, the fireplace and the view. Also 99% of the staff are absolute gems and a assist to the business.

A beautiful holiday location for all seasons, lots to do, even in COVID times and mid-winter. Warm, well-equipped and comfy accommodation, extensive attractive grounds and lake with many walking paths. Close to Thredbo and Jindabyne. Good restaurant. Cheerful and helpful staff. We've now booked to return in Spring to experience a different season and explore the area more, having seen sunshine, snow and frozen lake, and rain!

Close to the Ski tube (5min drive), Apartments were spacious and comfortable with all the trimmings. The under floor heating and fire place ensured a relaxed atmosphere and the drying room/laundry made sure our boots were warm and dry each morning. I will stay here again.

Excellent socially distanced break from the monotonous

Customer review rating 4.5/5

Majella Families - 16/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

We stayed for 1 week just as the travel laws were lifted and had a fabulous time. Social distancing was well observed with contact less check in and check out. The apartment was beautiful and spotless, everything you could want. Right on the lake to enjoy the beautiful winter sun with a tea and listen to the birds. Plenty of firewood for cosy family games nights and a spa bath to soothe away the aches from a day on the slopes. Highly recommended for a family getaway

Dear Majella, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay with us here at Lake Crackenaback Resort and Spa. I am glad to see that you had a great time with us. This has certainly been a challenging year for all of Australia so i am very happy to hear that the Resorts COVID-19 safety measures didn't detrimental to your stay. Thank you once again for your time and we look forward to welcoming you back in the not too distant future. Regards, Alex

We had a wonderful 30th Wedding Anniversary, first time at this resort & we will be back. Would like to explore the walks more next time Re hygiene, due to the current situation, upon arrival to the room we found in a draw in the ensuite a plastic bag with small bottles of conditioner, obviously left there from previous guest. I took a photo but I cannot attach it.

I stayed at Lake Crackenback for the Snowies Mountain Bike Festival - this time I brought the family to make a holiday of it. It's a great location, as there is so much the family can do while I'm out having fun on the bike.
