Great property with all the amenities for a group retreat! Enjoyed fire pit at night and hot tub. Kitchen was perfect for group cooking and all items needed for food prep were there. Easy access to shops and Farmer's Market in Big Sky. Definitely a place to return to!

We stayed at the house with 3 four person families and there was plenty of room for everyone. It was very easy to ski in and out from the property.

House was well equipped for our large group of 14. Everyone had a place to sleep and hang out. Kitchen was well equipped for dining in which we did the entire week. The boot dryers are a nice touch. Would be nice to have a place to hang gear near the garage but a minor inconvenience.

Jennie, We are so happy to hear you had a great stay at Homestead Chalet 8 Claim Jumper and we look forward to welcoming you back to Big Sky soon! Sincerely, The Big Sky Vacation Rentals Team
The house itself is fantastic, very big, lots of room for all 18 of us. The kids loved the bunkbeds, the adults without kids were happy to stay on the 3rd floor where the kid noise didn't come thru. The hot tub was a big hit, we went in every day. And the 2 patios were also a big hit, with a fire pit for smores! We used the BBQ grill, all the kitchen housewares, everything worked well. Highly recommended!

The house is beautiful and the linens and appliances are nice. Shared driveway is inconvenient. Living room breaker kept tripping. Had to run an extension cord to an outlet on a different breaker for the wifi and tv to stay on. House stays very hot. Even when adjusting thermostat to cooler temps. Boot drying rack was awesome. House was clean and stocked with necessities. Another living area would be nice for a house that sleeps so many people. Plow could have came more since there was significant snow fall. Shoveling of walkways was nice. Kitchen well stocked but could use a few more serving type plates. Hard to back out of drive with lots of snow since it angles right after garage and the opening is small so not much room to maneuver a large vehicle. Overall very nice. Just a few tweaks would make it even better.

Thank you so much for the feedback about your stay. We are so glad you loved the home and found the amenities like the boot dryers and linens to be top notch! We will pass the positive feedback to the plowing and shoveling contractors! With 60 inches of new snow they were certainly busy.
We are happy to discuss the additional kitchen platters with the owner. I am so sorry about the breaker problem. We called an electrician upon your departure to get this resolved. We are glad that you had such a positive experience and will work on making the suggested tweaks.
Again, many thanks for the feedback and for staying with us!
Sincerely,
Kirsten King, Owner, Big Sky Vacation Rentals

Jimmy, We are so happy to hear you had a great stay at Homestead Chalet 8 Claim Jumper and we look forward to welcoming you back to Big Sky soon! Sincerely, The Big Sky Vacation Rentals Team
We've been in the neighborhood before and just love it. Gorgeous views, great location, conveniently close to the mountain lifts, etc. The place is great with good-sized kitchen and nice rooms. Some pieces showed a bit of wear and tear (most of the towel racks hung by a thread), but overall it was very nice and enjoyable. One other wish is that there was more room to eat. The dining table seats 8 and the bar another 4, but the house sleeps 18.
BBQ was great (nice big Weber) and the hot tub was enjoyable. We liked the real wood fireplace and watched football on the large TV (that's mounted a bit too high, but it worked fine).
We had a great time.

This property was absolutely stunning and situated right on top of the mountains. The house had so much space and was perfect for our large family! It’s convenient to restaurants and shopping and we even saw so much wildlife right from our back porch! The staff was always quick to respond to any issues and made our trip easy. We will definitely be back!

This house was amazing. It is set up perfectly for an area that the kids can play in and a separate area for adults to relax in. The amount of bedrooms and bathrooms were perfect for our group. We had 7 children and 7 adults. The property owners were great and answered our questions in a very prompt time frame. We loved it!

This is a great property for large groups plenty of room inside the house there’s only a few things I’d like the manager to consider:
Cooking hardware has been a little overused so getting new ones would be great.
The towels stunk so bad we had to wash them before we used them.
The grounds were a bit dirty also there were a lot of ants around the hot tub.
That being said I would highly recommend the property specifically for large groups with kids and teenagers.
