Wonderful home, great location for family

We stayed for two weeks in the summer and had a wonderful time! The location is in “town,” not on the mountain, which was great. There is a small park 3 blocks away, easy to walk to town, access local hikes. The layout of the house is very family friendly. We have 4 young kids and the basement provided plenty of play room. The fenced in backyard provided great outdoor space too. We absolutely loved Big Sky, and this house made our stay easy, comfortable and unforgettable. We would highly recommend staying here!

Great location for a large group

This house was perfect for our Big Sky ski trip. Conveniently located within walking distance to Big Sky Town Center and the many dining and shopping options available there. If you're headed to the mountain for a day of skiing it's just a short drive up the road. Even at opening and closing times the road there was never overly busy like you see at entrances to the CO and Utah resorts. The house itself had plenty of room for our large group and the in floor heating, hot tub, and steam shower all assured that we never got chilled even as temps outside hovered around zero degrees. I would definitely recommend this house for your next Big Sky vacation.

Great location & bigger than expected!

We rented as a group of 9 friends/adults and I admittedly was a little worried it was going to be too cramped from the pictures online. When we got to the house, that was definitely not the case! The house was very big, all the rooms were spacious, (including the loft over the garage where I stayed) and there was plenty of parking. A note on the garage loft - we were also kind of worried the stairs were going to be hard to navigate but the loft was great! Stairs were wide and the loft area fit two adults no problem. The hosts were very responsive. We also liked being a 10-15 min walk from restaurants. We didn't take the shuttle to the resort but it was an easy 15 min drive. The only downside we ran into was there was a gross stain on one of the comforters in the loft but other than that, no complaints. We'd definitely stay here again and recommend!

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Communication
The code provided did not work for the lock box. We left several messages with the "host" number provided and never received ANY communication from them. My son eventually crawled through the doggie door in the back yard to enter the home. Had that not been there we would have never been able to enter the home we paid over 3K to stay in for 4 nights. There was not communication from Expedia either. It was very frustrating.
