About this property
Marmotte Mountain Retreat - located in beautiful & private national park forest.
Chalet Marmotte Mountain Retreat is a magnificent luxury 4-bedroom catered chalet that can sleep up to 8 people. Nestled in French pine forest behind the 18th century village of Argentiere, two mountain streams flow past either side of the chalet adding to the ambience of being tucked away in a real mountain retreat. An outdoor hot tub sits adjacent to one of the streams, allowing guests to relax and enjoy the amazing views and beautiful surroundings of the chalet. Marmotte Mountain Retreat is a luxury mountain paradise and a place of immense beauty for all who visit.
Marmotte Mountain Retreat is also a great place for kids, the large front yard provides endless opportunities for snowman/snow cave building and tobogganing.
