Our stay was absolutely wonderful. Close to Yellowstone and Grand Tetons for a day trip. The view from this home is absolutely breathtaking!! We will definitely consider this property for future visits to Big Sky!
Fantastic property high on the mountain in Moonlight Basin in Big Sky. Great views of the Spanish Peaks and to the west for stunning sunsets. House has all the features for a great family vacation, large well-equipped kitchen, many bedrooms, great deck, and multiple rooms to meet and spread out. First class property.

We had the most amazing stay at Valhalla A LOT like Heaven. The views were epic, the house was amazing and we had an incredible stay. We used the home as a base for 5 days to explore Yellowstone and SW Montana. The home was incredibly well furnished for every type of cooking we wanted to do - from a crockpot to make sure dinner was ready when we returned from a day in the Park, to all the kitchen tools that could be needed for real cooking, and a lovely set of wine accessories including a decanter to help open our aged Italian wine. We spent time on every outdoor deck and the hot tub worked well to recover hiking muscles while watching the sunset. We will definitely return for another stay!!!
