My fiance and I stayed at this cabin during the summer of 2009. This was my favorite vacation ever. It's hard to describe the best part. The Big Sky area where this cabin is located is simply beautiful beyond description. The cabin was phenomenal as well. It was well maintained with all the amenities you could ask for. Everything in it seemed in near pristine condition. Hot tub in the evenings after hiking all day was a real plus! My only complaint was leaving the place. I would love to go back the first chance we get. I highly recommend this cabin and vacationing in Big Sky.

Owner response:Bill: Thanks so much for the awesome review! It helps so much...I still look at all those pics you took and am amazed as I look out at the mountain and it is all covered up with snow... Marian

I got back from Montana late last night and what a fantastic week we had!! The snow was fantastic all week. The fresh 10 inches Sunday night made Monday one of my best days skiing ever! We got another 5 inches or so Tuesday night. Loved Dakota Bowl and we spent a lot of time on the Challenger lift area. We skied one day at Moonlight Basin which was also very nice. There was so much snow on the mountain (and the cold kept it light) that the conditions were really excellent all week. The scenery was fantastic. Amazing mountain panaromas - truly majestic. The house was perfect! The 10 of us had plenty of room to spread out, to eat together, and to relax. The hot tub saved my aging back and the iPod speaker system came in very handy. The kitchen was great – we went out for dinner once (Blue Moon Bakery had excellent pizza) but cooked in every other night (shop in Bozeman on the way in). We used the fire place a lot – very pleasant. We enjoyed the movie selection in the main room. It was such a treat to be able to enjoy the mornings, then simply step outside and put on our skies and away! We came home for lunch some days and ate in the café a few times too. Yeti Dogs was a big hit with the teenagers. In the afternoons after that last turn we just step out of our skiies, set them against the wall and stepped into the house! It was wonderfully convenient! Everyone had a great time – honestly one of the best vacations any of us has had in a long time.

Just home from a glorious 3 nights at your marvelous cabin at Big Sky. We truly got attached - what a special, special place you have. We own a log and timber frame business and had a real appreciation for the structure and beauty of your home. LOVED the floor plan, which made it so easy for all of us to have individual space yet come together for dinner and evenings by the fireplace. The interior decorating, I simply adored - comfy yet classy and made you feel right at home. We particularly appreciated how clean and put together it all was. To top it off, the convenience of the ski in/ ski out can not be surpassed. Thank you so very much for allowing us this opportunity and for providing such a welcoming and comfortable setting for our mini-vacation. We will be looking for an excuse to come back.

A HOUSE FOR ALL SEASONS

We came once to this house 4 years ago and have been back every year. Great location to ski in ski out. Comfortable and spacious rooms with great bathrooms. Enjoy great vista views from the deck and hot tub areas of nearby spanish peaks. The property is well maintained and clean every time we come. Great location for summer, fall and winter fun. The house is close to all outdoor activities and town, but still remote enough to feel like you are away from it all.

Where Else Would We Stay . . .

. . . to ski on my Favorite Trail in the World: "Shedhorn" (and the many other great Big Sky / Moonlight Basin ski experiences) !!! We have had a couple of tremendous trips to Big Sky! A very big part of both trips has been our stay at this B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L private home. Location: Awesome - Cross the carport, snap on your skis and drop in right into the neighborhood chairlift that gets you in the Heart of it All! Home: Tremendous - Very well thought out floor-plan with luxury appointments throughout. Absorbs families / up to four couples EASILY. Favorites include the post ski hot tub after the tremendous evening fun in the Great Room. (What it the name of that huge Moose head above the fireplace!?!) Love Big Sky. Great place to experience it from. We hope to be back real soon!

We had an amazing time at this house. The ski in and out was a very convenient feature. The hot tub was great to have at the end of a long skiing day. The house had amazing views and was comfortable with plenty of room. We will definitely go back.

Perfect Family Retreat

My family and 2 other families stayed in this beautiful home with a spectacular view. The house itself was amazing and spacious. It was very clean and the sleeping arrangements for 12 were more then comfortable. The beds were huge. The place is nicer than the photos depict. There were plenty of pots, pans, dishes, spices for cooking. The kids were able to play games downstairs while the adults were on the main floor enjoying each others company. We loved going to the hot tub after a long day of skiing and enjoying a cocktail. The location was great. We were able to ski in and out with our kids. We also enjoyed eating at Milkies Pizza, The corrall and Bucks T4. We also went to Yellow Stone for an easy day trip where we snow shoed around. You have to have a 4 wheel drive car/truck for all of Big Sky in the winter. We had a few questions for the owner and they got right back to us. I would recommend this place to any of my family and friends. Thank you for your hospitality. I hope to be back soon!
