Fantastic Property!
We had 13 adults and the house have room to spare. The large common area was great for dinner, drink and evening laughs. The property offered extremely easy ski in / ski out for both skiers and snowboarders.
The house has everything you need or want for a ski in ski out property in big sky. No complaints. Really recommend it...

The house was very nice. My only suggestions may be trash cans in bedrooms and a dust buster or broom. Skiing back in was a workout but the location was good overalls

We had a wonderful stay in this Big Sky powder ridge home. We had 3 separate families ranging from 8 yrs old to adults and had plenty of space. The rooms are set up well, the flow of the kitchen is great, and the bonus of the basement and hot tub were amazing. Communication was clear with the management and the house was clean when we arrived. Would definitely rent again.

Comfort and space for 12
We were traveling as two families of 6 and found the homes accomadations very comfortable for the whole group. We had small children, teenagers, young adults and adults and all enjoyed what the property had to offer. The views off the wrap around deck offered a great place to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning and a cocktail in the evening. The wood burning fireplace was a great center piece to finish out the night.

Disliked: Communication
House was great but the exterior railings were missing. Toilets weren’t elongated which I found craz
This house was not new so I didn’t understand the missing railings. If we had kids staying I would’ve stayed somewhere else with exterior railings. When I contracted the rental agency they told me to contact maintenance- like they didn’t know what was going on? Fix the rails.

Response from VrboOwner on 13 Oct 2021
Jim, we are so sorry to hear that the railings were missing during your stay with us. The Powder Ridge HOA was working on a few neighborhood projects this summer and while they usually give us a heads up on projects that happen on or around our rental homes, we were not notified that they were replacing the railings at Manitou 3. The HOA did finish getting the railing fixed shortly after. We absolutely understand the importance of having railings at the home and had we known that the HOA would be working on them, we would have found a solution to ensure a safe and wonderful stay with us. We hope you enjoyed the rest of your stay here in Big Sky and look forward to welcoming you back to Big Sky soon! Sincerely, The Big Sky Vacation Rentals Team
The location was great! We did activities in Yellowstone.
Staying an hour between both Bozeman and Yellowstone was ideal. The home was cozy. Hot tub, fireplaces, plenty of room and storage, and easily accessible to many activities.

Best mountain cabin experience yet.
One week wasn't long enough to enjoy this lovely place. It was large enough for my extended family of adults, yet still had little "get away" areas. The great room handled our large group in comfort. Beds great, comfy furniture, and lovely western mountain flare throughout. Favorites include the 2 fireplaces, the wrap-around deck for morning coffee, and the hot tub nestled privately on the lower deck with great star-gazing. Its high-end. We'll be back.

Perfect mountain get away
A group of seven of us booked this property through the property management company running this property. Our requirements are pretty simple, comfortable accommodations(specifically beds), large common area, and ski in ski out. Property had everything we needed and more. We have rented ski properties all over the western United states and this one is towards the very top of our list. Historically we have not used properties managed by rental mgmt companies; however the folks at bsvr know exactly what higher end property renters expect and were outstanding to deal with.

Incredible vacation retreat!
We were thrilled with the accommodations and comfort of this home! We all had room to spread out and spent many nights in the hot tub after a day of hiking or horseback riding. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we might have needed. Big Sky Resort hosts, Mike and Kirsten were so helpful and took care of any concerns or issues in a professional, timely manner. We have spent the last five summers in Big Sky and look forward to our family tradition. Moonlight Basin has to be our favorite retreat and we could not have been happier with our stay! Thank you!
