About Chalet L’Eau Vive - Ardent

Beautiful old auberge 150m from the lift, ski home, 3 fabulous family suites, spacious living area, log fire and an outdoor hot tub.

Chalet L’Eau Vive sits next to the stream at the entrance to this quiet village and sleeps 12-14.

On the first floor there are three beautiful and spacious family suites.  Each one accommodates a family of 4-5 in a double bedroom and adjoining bunk room. The chalet has a large open-plan dining and living area, separate TV/DVD room, a ski and boot room, washing machine and tumble dryer and a splendid outdoor hot tub with fabulous views of the mountain, river and forest, the perfect spot for relaxing at the end of the day. The telecabine is just 150m up the village and you can ski back to the chalet. We have installed Starlink wifi.

It is hardly surprising that people are prepared to drive to Ardent, after all, Snow-forecast.com give Montriond/Ardent a solid five out of five for ‘snowsure’ and state it is ‘snowsure even in the poorest seasons’. (Montriond is the commune down the valley which gives its name to the skiing area reached by the Ardent Bubble). Lucky Family Ski Company guests just need to step out of their chalet door to benefit from this great reputation!

Avoriaz, with its 2000+ m pistes, is the place to be near when snow is in demand, and is just two lifts away from Ardent Village.

The Powder Hounds are given lunch in Chalet L’Eau Vive and enjoy activities in their ‘Den’ on the lower ground floor during the afternoons. Breakfast is served in the chalet and your cook or host will prepare dishes from our breakfast menu. Please note that two staff occupy a separate top floor studio.

Please note that floor plans are not exact, they may be subject to change and are for information only.

The resort and skiing were completely different to the huge resorts – Ardent and the Portes du Soleil area has a lovely intimate feel.  We tried ski-touring and loved it!
