Quartz

Welcome to La Marmotte Joyeuse, a 19th-century house fully renovated in 2026 in the heart of the Alps, in the beautiful village of La Grave, facing La Meije.

The house features three apartments; the “Quartz” apartment, where you’ll be staying, is a cozy duplex—perfect for a solo trip or a romantic getaway.

Experience life in a mountain village listed among the “Most Beautiful Villages of France,” with shops, restaurants, and the cable car all within walking distance, and the GR 54 and 50 hiking trails just a stone’s throw away.

The apartment is a 35-square-meter duplex. The dining and living area is on the ground floor: a fully equipped kitchen featuring an oven and dishwasher, a fondue and raclette set (a must!), a smart TV, and views of La Meije and the 3 Évêchés (facing south and east).

The bedroom is upstairs with an en-suite bathroom, a separate toilet, a skylight with a view of La Meije, and a balcony overlooking Les 3 Évêchés.

The bedding is new and hotel-quality.

A shared ski room with a lockable locker assigned to each unit (ski locker + boot and glove dryer) is available for your use. In the summer, you can use this room to store your bikes (with outlets for e-bikes).

High-speed Wi-Fi is available throughout the apartment, ideal for remote work. The bed is made upon your arrival, linens are provided (bath towels and kitchen towels), and end-of-stay cleaning is included, so you can truly enjoy your vacation.

If you weren’t able to go grocery shopping before arriving, don’t worry—essentials are provided for the start of your stay: coffee pods, tea/herbal tea, dishwasher tablets, salt, pepper, oil, shower gel/shampoo, and a roll of toilet paper.
