A fabulous chalet!

We had a great time at Kickenback! Lovely property with everything you could need for a weekend in the snow. Warm and cozy with a great outlook and super easy to get to the snow from there. We'll be back.

Fantastic stay

Our family of 5 stayed at Kickenback in August 23. It was an ideal location for us to experience our first family ski holiday. The chalet is well appointed and is cosy with fire and comfortable lounge. It is very close to the ski tube making it a very easy process to get up to the slopes (vital when wrangling young children and ski gear). Also some good activities to do around the resort when not up on the slopes. I would highly recommend!

We had a great stay!

We stayed for 3 days over Christmas and had a terrific time. The chalet is very well equipped for a short or long break and is even better than the photos, It's a lovely place. Plenty of space and very comfortable. Lots to see and do in a lovely small resort.

Stayed in Summer, just went back for Winter!

We stayed for 10 nights in January for hiking and mountain biking and didn't want to leave! Just went back for 5 nights in July for snow skiing and felt the same way! Highly recommend Kickenback, we will be back!

Wonderful place to stay

I love this place. It is a lovely location and is always immaculately presented. It is genuinely wheelchair accessible and comfortable. I can't fault it.
