On arrival our initial impression was positive. The home is beautiful, and the location is convenient, not far from Big Sky. Unfortunately, our experience quickly changed. After setting our bags down and heading downstairs, we found a mouse sitting on top of the couch. I completely understand that, especially in mountain areas, the occasional mouse can make its way inside. However, as we moved the couch cushions trying to catch it, we discovered a significant amount of mouse droppings and urine beneath the cushions, along with a hole in the couch. We contacted the owner immediately. While he apologized for the mouse, I never felt that he truly acknowledged how much this impacted our vacation. My brother and his wife were supposed to sleep in the downstairs area, but after finding the mouse and the contamination, they no longer felt comfortable doing so. The initial solution offered was to set traps and have the area cleaned the following day. Since the couch was no longer usable and we had to rearrange our sleeping accommodations, we didn’t feel that adequately addressed the situation. After some discussion, the owner agreed to a compromise and refunded half the cost of one night’s stay, which we appreciated. The only other issue worth mentioning is the bathroom layout. In two of the bathrooms, the toilet is positioned immediately next to the shower, and the shower spray reaches the toilet easily. I feel this might be something future guests would to know.
