We had a great time at Big Sky. Ski in-out was amazing. My only small complaint would be the early checkout (10am). However, after communicating with the management, we were able to get a later checkout.The place was super clean. Having a separate recycling bin outside would be beneficial. Also a place to hang skis/snowboards (and securely) would be great.Overall A stay!

Thank you so much for staying with on your ski vacation. Great to hear that you felt the ski in and out was amazing! 10 am is the standard checkout time in Big Sky and in the spirit of limiting wildlife encounters, we don't have outside recycling bins.

Our family enjoyed a wonderful long MLK weekend at Rustic Ridge!! We skied right down to the Iron Horse Lift to start our days and came in to a nice lunch and rest in our cabin; then, right back out to close down the days on the slopes!! Acra and staff exceeded our expectations with communication and accommodations in the cabin!! We enjoyed ourselves immensely!!

Acra and Chris were amazing hosts. They were very responsive to all of our questions. The cabin was very cozy and the location could not be beat. It is by far the best ski and ski out experience we’ve had to date at any ski resort. Also, the cabinet itself was wonderfully stocked with everything you could possibly need, including laundry soap, dish detergent, trash bags, paper towels, kitchen, utensils, a crockpot, a blender, etc. They thought of everything! They even asked us if we wanted a Christmas tree set up and decorated since we were there for Christmas Day, and it looked beautiful.

Thanks for staying with us at the Rustic Ridge Cabin! Great to hear that everything was clean and well maintained for you. Most people ski directly in from the Powder River ski run to the front porch, sorry that was not evident to you......But you can see the Powder River run from the porch.

Great ski location

The property was very clean with no signs of wear. The location was perfect for ski in / ski out. The hot tub overlooked the forest for a peaceful evening. They made efficient use of all the space so if you have lots of suitcases you have to be inventive to store while there. But a nice living space for families with an open floor plan.

Great Spot

We've done a lot of ski trips and we all thought this was excellent. Not big, but very efficient and comfortable for the 4 of us. We cooked in most nights in the well equipped kitchen. Great hot tub on the porch. Lots of nice details from games to towels & toiletries to extra blankets for lounging on the huge couch. Even a Sonos speaker for tunes.Ski in/out was as good as it gets, and the location was great no matter where on the mountain you planned to spend the day.

I would definitely rent from Moonlight Vacation Rentals again regardless of the location. We have stayed all over the mountain in Mountain homes, Saddle Ridge Townhomes, and the Cowboy Cabins but they communicated the best from the beginning of placing our request to end of our stay. That makes a world of difference for us. I would rent from them again!
