The property was perfect, views were amazing, super clean, firewood available and so peaceful. I would recommend bringing drinking water, the water has a very strong odor and taste.

Awesome getaway

The stay was awesome. Very very clean, amenities are great. However, I wouldn’t necessarily recommend families with very small children (we had a 1 1/2 year old with us). Although there were plenty of baby gates to use, it isn’t the most baby friendly.

Great View

Honestly had a wonderful stay at Big Sky Lodge. Everything was just as noted in listing and Watershed Properties was easy to deal with. Owners could do MINOR updating of shower heads, toilets and carpet downstairs to keep property 4⭐️; but beds comfortable and kitchen well stocked. Had a wonderful visit and the view is spectacular!

Great getaway cabin

The cabin was great for a bigger group (we had 9 people with us) and the view was amazing- my only complaint is that they don't provide any towels for the 10 people they state it can hold and we didn't see any covers either- thankfully we had brought some. also, make sure you do have a 4x4 car ( as described on the descriptions) since the ride up the mountain is super steep- other than that, everything was as described, and we enjoyed our stay.

Would stay here again!

Listing was super accurate. Road up to top of mountain a little challenging so be comfortable with very steep switchback driveway. We have a GMC 4-wheel drive and on the last switchback before driveway we had to back up and reposition both coming and going to make the turn. Otherwise, the property is excellent, we enjoyed smores, the hot tub, the very nicely stocked kitchen where we prepared excellent meals, and the indescribable view as much as possible. All in all, an excellent location and property we will definitely visit again!

Fair experience

The road leading to the cabin is washed out in 2 of the sharpest turns. The cabin looks nice in the front but needs a lot of repairs.. The fence in the front was leaning and not safe. The fence around back at the fireplace has fallen down and around the parameter of the steep slope of the woods the fence rotted so be careful if you have smaller kids. The stairs on the side by the hot tub were wobbly. The hot tub has a brown ring around it and the water was dirty. Some of the foundation beams of the deck were rotted and there was a strap holding them together. Some have been replaced. The screens were falling out of the windows and the window trim was hanging from the windows. There was trash and beer cans outside from the previous ppl. The inside ceiling fan didn’t work in the main living room. The dryer door was hard to close and the washer smells like mildew. The shower upstairs had a lot of hard water stains. The dart board didn’t work downstairs and we could not figure out how to work the tv. The handwritten instructions were not helpful and a lot of it had been scratched out. We had to watch the tiny tv upstairs. The inside could use some updating and a good dusting but overall was very clean. The kitchen was nice and had everything needed to cook. There were plenty of towels and pillows. The view was beautiful and it was peaceful. It wasn’t a terrible stay but I expected more for the price. If repairs are made I would return for another visit.

Great views

My husband and his friends spent a long weekend here in September. They ended up spending more time out exploring than at the house, but it was a great “home base” for them and offered great views and comfortable accomodations for their group of five. Communication with the property manager was easy and helpful.

Nice experience

The cabin overall is really nice! Worth spending your money here. The only thing I didn’t like was driving the long and bumpy mountain to the cabin. Overall cleaning was good just need to clean the fan ceilings.

Get away from it all at Big Sky!

Very relaxing weekend. I think the dogs enjoyed it the most!! 1000 games of pool and fire pit fun. Used the hot tub a couple times, the well water definitely has some minerals my city kids are not used to giving rise to some coloration and odors… all good but took some getting used to. Above-average log cabin style home with all the trappings in a very isolated location. Kitchen decently stocked, as is typical with rentals struggled with the cheap knives and finding things like the right sized pots and dishes. Probably not the best choice if you are wanting to pop into a cute mountain town for dinner as you really are away from it all. Better in my opinion for bringing in your own food and enjoying each other’s company and staying put. We did go to Tsali trail system for hiking. GSMNP doesn’t allow dogs which limited our hiking choices, but this did the trick (horses and bikes allowed too). Views and stars galore. Enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful views and a wonderful cabin. We were so comfortable! 2 kids and 5 adults and a perfect getaway. Great cabin to relax for a weekend. Nothing beats having coffee sitting on a rocker and looking at this view.
