Welcome back to our lodge managers from the past few winter seasons – Shirley & Kyle. Skilib is up and running for the winter season with some good falls for the start of the school holidays. We have freshly renovated common showers and toilets, and there is still availability on many weekends and midweek periods.

We say farewell to our Summer Lodge Managers, Jackie & Matt. Thanks for a great summer season as our managers. Our guests and members really appreciated your hospitality and work. And now as the Buller lodge is closed for pre-winter preparations, it’s time to start thinking about your winter bookings, if you’ve not already made them.

Skilib are pleased to welcome Jackie as our Summer Lodge Manager for 2015/2016 Summer, together with her partner Matt. Jackie & Matt have managed a lodge at Perisher for the last 6 winter seasons, and are keen mountain bikers as well. They also love snowboarding and the outdoor lifestyle, and enjoy spending time with lodge guests. Matt is also a chef, and plans to offer catered main meals and breakfasts on weekends.
Book in for summer and enjoy their company and our great new bathroom facilities.
