About this property

MVC Bear's Lair - Four Bedroom House, Sleeps 12

Fresh back in the rental market after a year-long renovation and addition, Bear's Lair has been enhanced top-to-bottom with spectacular new finishes and an additional living room. A brand new kitchen offers any chef an excellent set of professional-grade appliances and roof for the whole family to share in the fun of cooking. Each bathroom in the home was fully refreshed top to bottom. This property underwent a full remodel that was finished in the summer of 2023. Notice the immaculate kitchen complete with premium appliances. Additionally, every bathroom in the home was redone with top-of-the-line finishes. Gain a fresh perspective of Big Sky from this exquisite ski-in/ski-out vacation home offering incredible views of the “Biggest Skiing in America”.

Bear’s Lair is modern and contemporary with a touch of mountain warmth. From the moment you arrive, you can’t escape the views! High vaulted ceilings and full-height windows welcome you to a bright and sunny open plan living area with views of the slopes from every angle. The newly updated kitchen boasts state-of-the-art appliances, all the amenities an aspiring chef needs, and a plush ten-seater dining room table sets the tone for many memorable meals. This 4,000 sq ft home features four beautifully appointed bedrooms conveniently laid out to cater to two families or larger groups with two living areas.

You will also find an additional seating area adjacent to the dining room, perfect for enjoying a glass of wine at the end of the day. An upper-level loft area is a great place to hang out and play board games or quietly read a book and appreciate the views. If you must bring work along, there is a private office.

Reconnect with nature on the sun-drenched deck or soak up the views in your private hot tub! Whatever the occasion, whatever the season, this is Big Sky Resort mountain lodging at its finest. Bear’s Lair is located near the Moonlight Basin entrance and is only a short drive away from the selection of eateries, aprés ski, shops, and activities reminding you that you’re in a bustling mountain resort. Big Sky Resort offers the ‘Biggest Skiing in America” and is a year-round vacation destination that never fails to impress.

Bears Lair is part of The Platinum Collection of Big Sky MT Lodging Options.

Amazing View - Great Living/Kitchen area
Very impressed with the amount of storage in the relatively small kitchen, and complete with everything you might need. Loved the view of Lone Peak out of the windows. Many different living/hangout areas. On the minus side; beds a bit too hard, and very low indoor humidity (probably normal for area and time of year) Loved our stay and would go back.
