Location! Location! Location! Riding high atop a ridgeline, yet only a three minute drive to the ski area base below, this quintessential Montana cabin, completed in September 2019, has perhaps the best view in all of Big Sky, catching the sun’s first rays over the Gallatin Range and Yellowstone mountains looking down the valley off the back porch, and front and center capturing the entire panorama of Lone Peak and its magnificent sunsets from the front porch and hot tub. This secluded 5,000 square foot lodge backs up to a 380 acre nature preserve, with deer, fox, elk, moose, and bears frequenting the yard. Four master suites, a bunkroom that sleeps 6, and two single beds in the loft, all with fabulous views, allow 16 to sleep comfortably. Designed and outfitted lovingly over several years by the owners, they want to make you feel as if this is your home for your stay, be that family gatherings or adult getaways. For early risers, the sunrise off the back porch is glorious, while the sunset is not to be missed from the comfort indoors of the expansive windows or alfresco on the front porch with its grill, generous seating, outdoor fireplace, and 8 seat hot tub. Even after a day of skiing or exploring, the sunset may be the highlight.
Indoor amenities include a pool table, card table and wet bar, big screen TVs with satellite, a Sonos sound system, stainless steel appliances, walk-in showers, a cozy indoor fireplace and large gathering room, elegant western decor throughout, boot dryer, two washer/dryers, and a bunk room Xbox for the wild bunch.
Outdoors, one can snowshoe in winter on a trail directly off the back porch through the preserve, or take this gentle hike in the summer, but bear spray is essential in these summer months. Both 45 minutes from the Bozeman airport to the north, and 45 minutes from West Yellowstone, yet situated in the mountain village, this home is well suited for exploration, although you may never want to leave the cabin!

In our 21st year of skiing the western U.S., this may have been the best of all the houses we have rented. Good layout, kitchen well-stocked (you could tell that the owners actually use the place), everything in good working order. And the best view in the area.

This was an amazing stay. The house was just as listed and plenty of room for 4 families with kids ranging from 2 to 17! Definitely a place to stay if your going to be in Big Sky- it definitely had the best view in town! And a friendly little fox that visited daily that the kids enjoyed watching from inside!

Fantastic property. Hottub with fantastic view. 4 big rooms with ensuites. One multi barracks :) type room with 4 bunkies that gets a little cold. Great kitchen with all amenities. Managers quick on the text with help. 1 mile to base of hill so we rented an SUV and valet parked at the Summit hotel. Buy your food/wine in Bozeman as Big Sky grocery rather exploitative. Had a fantastic week thank you and adored the friendly fox!

What an amazing home to stay in for our first time to Big Sky. We brought our three children and two grandchildren and everyone loved it. Would definitely go back.
Seems like they thought of everything in the house. Loved that they left a few basic items to use, like coffee liners, salt and pepper, etc. I really dislike having to buy those things that you need but have to throw away when you leave and don’t use it all.

Buckaroo Ridge was an absolutely gorgeous home for our family of 17. We spent Thanksgiving in this fabulous house with spectacular views in an exceptionally appointed home. The staff was responsive and the listing was accurate (but the house had more than we even expected). We truly loved every moment in this fantastic property. There is a den on the main floor with a pullout couch that we used as a bed. Turning this room into another bedroom would be ideal and a bit more comfortable for larger families or groups. It’s close to skiing, downtown, restaurants and groceries yet is private, quiet and secluded from crowds. I strongly recommend this property!!

We have a large 3 generation family that loves to spend time together and loves to ski. This house provided a comfortable way to accomplish both. The house has ample room for all of us to be together with a large kitchen, cozy beds, enough bathrooms, as well as the opportunity to play pool or relax in the hot tub or on the deck at the firetable. Whatever we were doing at the house, the awesome view of Lone Peak was right in front of us. We had an easy time keeping our skis and boots at the house, and the short drive down to the Big Sky base was not inconvenient. The ski resort provides easy parking with a short shuttle ride, and even a quick drop off point if needed. We felt like the managers of the house were friends with easy communication back and forth and that the owners of the house love it and wanted us to love it also, which we did. It was such a great week, a vacation to remember.

We traveled to Big Sky to celebrate my father's 80th birthday. Our party consisted of 4 married couples and 9 additional family members, including 7 cousins ranging in age from 13-24. The 4 king beds and bunk room was perfect for our group. The view from the house and deck was unbeatable. The kitchen was better stocked than any house I have ever rented. The grill was utilized for three meals and worked well. We utilized the outdoor wood burning fireplace as well as the hot tub. The television looked great, but we never even turned it on. We spent 2 days in Yellowstone, went whitewater rafting, and hiked the Lava Lake trail. One member of our party fished in the Gallatin and one went golfing. We only scratched the surface of the local activities available. I would highly recommend this house for a large family gathering and wouldn't hesitate to book it again myself in the future.

We rented this house for our family vacation (6 adult children and 7 grandchildren, total of 15)
It was a perfect set up in everyway! The only problem we had was that the oven did not work! Management was great about looking into it and brought us counter top ovens to use but that was really difficult when feeding 15. They did do the right thing and give us a credit.
I need to also address the fact that 3 adorable foxes, who have obviously been feed by humans, hang around the property daily. They are thieves so do not put anything outside; they stole 3 expensive shoes and a shirt! I think that management should put up a sign letting people know about this and encouraging people not to feed the wildlife!
We really loved out time in Big Sky. It is beautiful. Our favorite hike was the Beehive Basin. We also did white water rafting, horseback riding, yellowstone and zip lining. Over all this was a fabulous house, place and vacation.

Thank you for sharing feedback of your stay in Buckaroo Ridge. Such a great home, and those foxes are terrible thieves! We have had quite a few wildlife encounters this season and have starting sending information about not feeding and encouraging them to visit the houses. They are wild and need to stay that way for everyone's safety!
We do hope to see you again soon!

Korey, We are so happy to hear you had a great stay at SV Buckaroo Ridge! Thank you for your constructive feedback as it is truly appreciated. We fully agree that having a functional hot tub is an integral part of any stay in Big Sky. We apologize for the inconvenience of not being able to use it and we hope we were able to reconcile accordingly. We look forward to welcoming you back to Big Sky soon, this time with a working hot tub! Sincerely, The Big Sky Vacation Rentals Team
