Marmotte Mountain Retreat - located in beautiful & private national park forest.

Warm Chalet in the Forest. A little few minutes from the car, and you are in a dream: Forest , snow, silence, you don’t see the village nor the people or the cars. Jon is great for anything you need. Not so luxury in the details but it’s what I need. Believe me, taste the experience.

I think that the summary covers it well. Marmotte Mountain put on a fantastic trip as they always do. The chalet was its usual high standard and the food and wine were particularly good. However it was the team that were particularly excellent with the service they offered, as they were always able to provide restaurant tips and get us where we wanted to go in the resort and when. Given the conditions wee faced in the second half of our trip this is no small feat!

Jonathan and his staff provided my family an amazing week of exquisite food that was prepared in our chalet by Daniel, our personal chef. He went above and beyond and prepared bag lunches for our ski days. Jess, our hostess had breakfast waiting for us each morning and was always available to transport us and provide information/suggestions for our recreation. Jon arranged and scheduled our ski guides, made restaurant reservations, and helped arrange an amazing holiday experience for my family. Their hospitality was superior! The chalet was very comfortable and in a beautiful location-tucked away in the woods with easy access to the village and ski trails. We were so glad to be removed from the busier towns in the valley and enjoy quaint Augentiere. My family and I will definitely travel back again.

Our stay was wonderful! Our host and chef were top notch. The food was incredible and a highlight of our trip. Daniel accommodated our 3.5 year old daughter with her own kid-friendly delicious meals as well! We skied various mountains and went on multiple excursions, such as to the thermal baths in Italy, hot air ballooning, paragliding, etc, and our host was extremely helpful and accommodating in helping us plan our week. The chalet was very warm and cozy! We loved spending the evening by the fireplace drinking delicious wine after a fun-filled day! We would recommend this trip to everyone!

Third time back to the Marmotte retreat. Love this place! Amazing setting and perfect alpine hideaway. Jon and his staff are always excellent and always on hand. Nothing is ever ‘too much bother!’ This year Laura and Dan looked after us perfectly: pick ups, great snow advice and truly sublime food! Would spend more time only have to go back to work. Can’t wait to see you all next year. Julian

This is our third year with Marmotte Mountain in Argentiere and they surpass themselves every time. The food was exceptional in the chalet and the hosts Laura and Daniel were great fun. The conditions in the valley were tough owing to high winds and lift closures but Jon ensured the that we got to ski in the best areas taking us to resorts we’d not visited and with excellent recommendations for restaurants. Everyone had a great time and we hope to be back next year.

Utterly delightful traditional wooden chalet in secluded magical woodland setting. Perfect snow, beautiful French village huh up the Alpes with guaranteed great skiing until the end of April. At least 5 ski areas within 10 minutes drive as well as the superb Grandes Montets area in Argentiere where this chalet is situated. Excellent customer service from the Marmottes Mountain company, which is tiny and locally-run. The owner provides beautiful home-cooked meals and organises everything for you. The chalet has 4 good size double rooms with open plan traditional French chalet living space, hot tub, sauna and a woodland setting with a river running through the garden. Amazing views. I have never stayed in a chalet as magical as this.

One of the best holidays we've had. Amazing location, superb retreat with Best in Class service!. A seamless, hassle free, customer centric holiday that was second to none. Probably the icing on teh cake was the first class service from Johnny Law and his team, organising everything from skiing trips, to transport to cooking amazing breakfasts! and superb BBQ'S. Cant say enough good things as there are too many to mention! Will be back next year...and the year after...and teh year after :) Thanks to all the crew for making it an unforgetable holiday! xAisling

This was bar none the best snowboard trip Ive ever been on and I've been on plenty! Short of the unbelievable conditions and views that Chamonix has to offer, the Marmotte Mountain Adventure team absolutely waited on us hand and foot the entire week. The gourmet food was spectacular, the rustic accommodations were breath taking and again the team that catered to us for the week were unbelievably gracious and friendly. I would recommend this trip to any and everyone!

If only you could live like this forever. You wake up to a table laden with breakfast goodies, then you're transported to anywhere in the valley for morning of mountain fun, board or ski down to your reserved table in the best savoyard restaurants, more fun in the snow and then back to the chalet for afternoon tea (a cake straight out of the oven waiting on the table), the jacuzzi and wood-fired sauna with incredible views (an arm's length from an ample and varied supply of beverages) and then aperitifs by the fireplace before sitting down to an exquisite 4-course mean prepared by your own private chef. And whether you feel like skiing or boarding down the Aiguille du Midi, going to Italy to eat suckling pig at the base of the Mont Blanc, or you'd like your kids to learn to ski from the best instructors in France, you need only ask and it shall be done. I want to live here :)
