Our first experience at Big Sky was made perfect by this home. The house easily accommodated 3 families with children (6 adults and 4 kids). Adults in bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and kids sharing a large loft space that actually sleeps 5 easily. We spent 6 nights at this lovely home, skiing 4 days out of 5. The home is well equipped including appliances not typicallly available through a VRBO such as crock pot, blender, immersion blender, mixer, baking pans and mixing bowls. In addition, it is conveniently located to stop halfway through the day for lunch and apres ski.
The beds in all rooms were comfortable, and the in floor heating kept the temperature consistent for our stay. The house was very clean upon arrival. Laundry with detergent was also quite helpful and convenient!
One thing we really enjoyed in addition to the house was the Moonlight Lodge. We paid a fee of $100/day to have a guest pass, which is required for the duration of your stay not including check in or check out dates. With the guest pass, we had access to a charming Yurt at Ulery’s lake which has snow tubing, ice skating, fat tire bikes and XC skis at no extra charge. At the lodge there is a nice pool and spa which we enjoyed one night.
Chris and Acra are excellent hosts. We only had one issue during our stay which they remedied immediately upon a simple phone call.
Now for the skiing! The skiing on the Moonlight side was so good that we hardly went to Big Sky Mountain. The house is situated on a ski road that crosses bridges and takes some skating but not much. It may be difficult for snow boarders or younger kids, but our crew did not struggle with it. Chris and Acra left clear instructions on how to return to the house, which includes crossing one of the worlds longest ski bridges, a special experience for adults and kids alike.
Overall, we all agreed this place was phenomenal, would recommend it, and gladly rent again!
