About this property
Stay Montana | Big Bear Retreat - Sleeps 14
Big Bear Retreat is the perfect getaway for your Montana vacation! This brand new home features a gourmet kitchen, an open concept floor plan, 5 Bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms and the views are a sight that must be seen! There are 2 living rooms with the main level featuring an oversized couch perfect for movie night, a fireplace perfect for cold nights and so much room to share with your friends and family! The lower level living room has two sleeper sofas for additional room for sleeping. Relax on the large back deck with your morning coffee or soak in the glorious evening sunset and mountain views and you ll see why they call Montana Big Sky Country! The laundry/mud room has a full sized washer and dryer and a powder room.
There is direct access to the Gallatin National Forest with 300+ acres of trails perfect for hiking or ATV s! Conveniently located in Gallatin Gateway, just south of Bozeman on your way to Big Sky or West Yellowstone. Also, just over an hour from the North entrance of Yellowstone National Park! It s a central home base for year round fun: fishing, rafting, hiking, skiing, golfing, shopping, visiting the National Park, or partaking of the many delicious restaurants in the area are all accessible within an hours drive.
This property is part of The Sapphire Collection, the ultimate in luxury. You'll also be greeted by 2 luxurious Stay Montana robes, Ella Cookies (our beloved family recipe), plus Huckleberry Pancake mix to make and enjoy during your stay!
The Sapphire Collection of properties are meticulously vetted to our highest standards to ensure our guests have an extraordinary Montana vacation experience. Offering a consistent, top-of-the-line selection of amenities, these properties are your perfect home away from home.
Why Sapphire? Montana is called the Treasure State and produces almost all of the sapphires in the US! Sapphires are gorgeous, sought-after gems that come in many colors including the cornflower blue Yogo sapphires which are especially coveted.
In the winter, nearby Bridger Bowl is a local s favorite for downhill skiing with 350 inches of snow on average, 8 lifts, and 2,000 skiable acres! You can also drive to Big Sky for even bigger downhill skiing or cross-country ski at Lone Mountain Ranch, voted #1 Nordic Ski Resort in North America. Looking for more thrills? Check out ice climbing in the Hyalite Canyon. After a day of adventuring, relax at Bozeman Hot Springs or hit the town! As a college town, Bozeman is always bustling with activity and something for everyone.
In the summer, Bozeman boasts numerous events and festivals like the Sweet Pea Festival, rodeos and MSU Graduation. It s a central home base for countless summer activities including touring Yellowstone National Park, fishing, rafting, hiking, tubing, golfing, shopping, or sampling menus at all the great restaurants nearby.
