About the host

Hosted by Susie Bardwell

Host profile image
Susie bought Driftwood in 2012 as she loves ski-ing, hiking, golf and swimming - all easily available in Thredbo. She regularly uses the cabin and her favourite place is the window seat where you can snuggle up with a good book and look out at the fabulous view!

Why they chose this property

Thredbo is a beautiful alpine village with lots of outdoor activities. There are also cafes, restaurants and bars which are an easy walk from the cabin.

What makes this property unique

Driftwood is set back from the road with no passing traffic so you can sit on the front balcony and hear the Thredbo river. It has fantastic views looking up to the super trail. The loft bedroom has sliding doors onto a back balcony so you lie in bed and (if you are lucky) catch sight of deer as they wander past.
