Classic Construction in a Modern Time

The lovely log cabin was perfect for our visit to Big Sky. The hot tub was a wonderful way to recover after a hard day of skiing. It is evident that the cabin has been around longer than the neighboring houses but has held on to its charm. It is very cozy. I would visit again.

Amazing Cabin in Big Sky

Our family completely enjoyed our time at this lovely log cabin in Big Sky. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. The hot tub was amazing! The views were spectacular. The cabin was located very close to the ski slopes and grocery stores. We would definitely recommend it and are looking forward to returning again in the future!

Great home base for a Big Sky ski vacation.

Our group of 7 enjoyed our stay at this home in Big Sky. The property was very clean and well stocked. We go on two trips each winter and this kitchen was the most well stocked with supplies, spices, baking goods, etc. we have experienced. The owner was responsive to my questions. We highly recommend this house for families or groups looking to experience all Bog Sky has to offer.

Home away from home….

The house and location are great, this home makes you feel like your at home, the master bedroom on the main level is very roomy, the bedroom downstairs is perfect with a very roomy bathroom, The loft beds are nice just watch your head ceiling is low. We look forward to returning to this property, easy access to grocery stores, restaurants and a 10 minute drive to Big Sky ski area parking lot.

Doesn't get more perfect that this!

The Little Coyote Log Cabin was the perfect place for a sisters getaway long weekend. We were all out and about during the day, and then hanging home at the cabin at night. The kitchen was nicely stocked with all the necessary items which was very helpful. The hot tub was awesome - with towels aplenty right by the door. We enjoyed ourselves so much - many thanks to Bridget for making our stay so seamless.

The property owner was very responsive and helpful.The home was clean and comfortable.One can easily see that it is used frequently by the owner as the fridge and shelves were stocked with foods and condiments. Not a problem.As mentioned in the listing the upstairs bathroom has a tub and toilet, no shower. For us, not a problem.We had a great time and would definitely stay there again.

Another wonderful week at the log cabin

We absolutely love the log cabin. We have stayed there for at least a week each winter for the past 7 years. We were on our own this year but generally have been accompanied by our son, daughter and son-in-law and sometimes other family members or friends. The cabin is roomy, clean, comfortable and well equipped. The owner, Bridget, and property manager, Beth, are both helpful and very easy to work. We cross-country ski and love the fact that the trails are directly across the street from the cabin. We had excellent skiing conditions this year with 2 to 4 inches of new snow every night except one.

Amazing!!

Everything about this cabin was amazing! It is located 10-15 minutes from Big Sky Village for easy access to skiing, and a property manager cleared the driveway of snow. It’s easily accessible with a 4-wheel drive vehicle (and probably without one). It was also easy access to Yellowstone Park and Moonlight Basin. Bridget was very helpful and always answered texts promptly. The cabin also had a great setup for children - my son LOVED having his own toddler bed, and there were a lot of toys, a high chair, and a pack-n-play. We will definitely stay here again in the future!

Burton/Martin Family 2nd Stay

Our stay was amazing! It was a longer stay and was just as wonderful as our first visit. The full kitchen and spacious home make it super cozy and comfortable. The hot tub is amazing after being out in the cold. Washer and dryer being available make it easier for those traveling from far away, so you can pack light and wash laundry as need. The owner and the property manager are very responsive to messages and any needs that may arise. The town center and shopping are close by for any needs that you may have. Skiing, horseback riding, Yellowstone and dog sledding all within reasonable distance for amazing outings. Thank you for more amazing memories for our family.

About the host

Hosted by Bridget Christenson

Host profile image
My family is from Madison, WI. We have been coming to Big Sky since 1990, when my brother first came to Big Sky Ski Resort to train with the UMN ski team. My parents purchased Little Coyote Log cabin in 1992. We have loved spending time with family during all seasons in Big Sky. Being close to Yellowstone NP has provided excellent opportunities for hiking, fishing and wildlife viewing. Big Sky is our home away from home. We hope you enjoy your stay at Little Coyote Log Cabin.

What makes this property unique

This is a true log cabin. That we hope has a homey western feel to it. Although Big Sky has grown significantly in the past 30 years, we hope to maintain that home away from home cabin feel that first attracted us to the area. Our hot tub on the deck is a great way to relax and enjoy the scenery and wildlife that surrounds us in the Meadow Village.
