    The location is fantastic. The condo is very large, but like most rented condos is dated. Parking was a bit of an issue since there is no guaranteed space to park. However, we did always find a spot. The private indoor hot tub was a treat.
    The condo was beautiful and had everything we needed. The communication with the owner was seamless; he was very responsive and gave us a lot of information about the area and condo in advance. The view of the mountain from the unit was breathtaking and the private hot tub after a long day of skiing was well appreciated. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend to others coming to Big Sky.
    No but`s. Well organized and maintained . Location location and location
    We loved this condo! Lots of space, amazing views and indoor hot tub a definite bonus. Equipped with everything we needed. We would definitely rent again!
    Great location. Only minutes way from Beehive hiking trial, lifts, dining, and beach. Construction of the deck was happening while I was present but good communication made if mostly hassle free. No air conditioning and we visited during heat wave but cooled off nicely at night.

    We loved this house. It was perfect for our family of 5 to hang out and relax. Great walking trail nearby to beautiful Ousel Falls and short walk to town. The hot tub was a big perk after a long day of outside exploring. Can’t wait to go back!

    This place lived up to the hype! The views were amazing and we absolutely loved being there. The host was more than accommodating and we hope to stay again in the future!
    My wife and I celebrated our 50th anniversary with our family in Moonlight Basin. We couldn’t have chose a better home and setting. Everyone enjoyed themselves and can’t wait to return. We thank Colleen Jones for sharing her beautiful home. We enjoyed visiting Yellowstone, Bozeman, Livingston, and hiking trails throughout the area. Got in a round of golf and the kids went kayaking in a West Yellowstone lake.
    The house was almost as beautiful as the famous Big Sky of Montana. You could not ask for a better view of the mountains and the ski slopes. The house was perfect for our family of five adults and two teens. Our granddaughters had a blast sledding just outside the house. We could sit in the living room and watch them from the huge picture window. Great ski in and ski out location. The owner could not have been nicer or more helpful. Would definitely rent again and again and again. Highly recommend this home for a winter or summer visit.
    We had a phenomenal time staying in this home. Communication with the owner was wonderful, and the check-in process was seamless. Highly recommend staying here!
    Everything was exactly as expected! Wonderful location super easy ski in/out. Hope to be back soon! Colleen and Jolene are great hosts and make the process very easy!

    I absolutely cannot express how amazing this home and location is. The images do not give Sky Haus enough justice. If you could picture heaven I am pretty sure this is what it would look like. The owners thought of literally everything a person would need during their stay and extra little needs. There is an amazing view of Lone Peak from the master bedroom and porch, my husband called it Paramount Mountain. I have stayed in many rental homes and by far this is my favorite. When my family arrived early we were permitted to drive around or sit on the property or leave stuff in the garage which was very kind. We chose to wait on the property and Chris the property manager was so kind and hilarious. Chris answered so many questions and shared stories of Montana, provided suggestions on where to visit. Chris even took the kiddos around the house to show and tell about a bear cub who visited the outside one time. I would recommend if you are visiting Ousel Falls the description on the Falls website is not quite accurate it was a difficult hike for those in our parties with some mobility issues. ATV riding through Summitt in Bozeman was fantastic in the mountains. My favorite part other than the home was our visit to Virginia City ghostown about 1.45 hour drive.Do not hesitate in renting this property you will not be disappointed!!! Thank you again Theressa and Gary for your kindness, hospitality, gifts, use of your home and our memories!
    My multigenerational family (age 1 year to 72 years) had a wonderful stay at Sky Haus. Theresa was so incredibly helpful. The house was perfect. I have never stayed at such a well stocked rental house before! The views from the house were amazing. We had a lovely time and will be back ! Thanks again for a great vacation!
    This property was gorgeous. Owners amazing. We loved every minute!!
    Beautiful view from property. Owner communication was great! House iwas a perfect set up for family activities.
    This property was fantastic and accomodated our group of 14 perfectly. Tons of room, fantastic property and stocked with everything you need. The views are breathtaking. Easy trip into Big Sky and quick access to Bozeman and Yellowstone. Can’t recommend this property enough.

    This is a great property in a great location for centralized options in the area. Close to Big Sky for skiing/snowboarding, and with great options for dining with in minutes of either direction.
    The property was perfect, close drive to the town center and Big Sky Resort. We loved being able to hot tub after each day of skiing. The host was quick to respond and super friendly. Highly recommend!
    Perfect space for our family of six. Very well equipped with towels, blankets and kitchen equipment. Kids enjoyed the hot tub too. Very easy drive and not far at all to get to skiing from here.
    Had a wonderful stay here. Condo is located in Big Sky halfway between Bozeman Airport and Yellowstone NationalPark. Nazha and Rachid’s place is very clean and cozy and located in quiet a neighborhood. They have all the cooking essentials including a blender and food processor. They also have a cooler, plenty of bear spray (we left ours), and binoculars for those who are going hiking or to the park. Towels and linens and pillows aplenty. Unfortunately didn’t get a chance to use the hot tint. Really enjoyed our stay here!
    Pictures doesn’t do this place justice! My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time staying here. It has beautiful views and is so private. Although we were staying on the owner’s property, it felt like we were in our own little world. The unit is homey and clean, and has everything you could need. Can’t forget about the hot tub! Nazha was very sweet, and although we didn’t need any assistance from her (since everything was super easy/straightforward), I know she would’ve been of great help! Hoping to get to visit this place in the winter.

    This condo at Saddle Ridge exceeded our expectations. Everything was so comfortable and newly updated. Would definitely recommend and return to this beautiful place.
    Staying here was OK, but not great. For $500/night in the summer – it had better be great. I stayed here with my wife and 2 kids who are 18, 21 y/o. In our room, when we arrived, we noticed there was a coat hook and 2 screws on the bedside table (unfinished repair….but where?) – so we contacted VACASA (since we did not want an add’l damage fee). As we settled in, the more we looked around, the more we noticed 1.) cover to hot tub, ripped, 2.) shade in Master Bath would not close (yes, people could see in), 3.) shade in guest room would not go up/down (to get to hot tub) and the pull cord eventually broke, 4.) front door lock didn’t work – and some other smaller stuff. Each time we contacted VACASA, we rec’d no response. Overall, the place was comfy, well appointed, nice view, nice hot tub – but this is not what I expect for THAT rate (including fees). If I owned this place, I would fire VACASA tomorrow.
    This was our first stay in Big Sky and we were very impressed by the town and the surroundings. Super simple drive to either Bozeman or to Yellowstone. We loved walking around the streets of Moonlight Basin. Lots of wildlife and stunning views for miles. My complaints are twofold. 1) There was next to zero communication about the unit and the area. Would have been very helpful for there to have been a welcome booklet or instructions on what’s available in the area or how to use things in the unit. I contacted Vacasa weeks prior to my trip and never got a response on questions I had. I also called and did not get any answers from the agents. That was disturbing. We had to search to find the trash receptacle (it’s a chained unit to the left of the lodge) and we also didn’t know if we could eat in the lodge. 2) The unit needs a bit of love and attention. Several of the blinds were broken, including the one in the primary bathroom that faces the street. Very uncomfortable to be getting dressed in front of an open window. We also had troubles getting the oven to work but there was no one to communicate about this with. Previous guests left messages about the washer and dryer not working so we did not use it even though we had planned on using it. Two of the treads on the stairs leading from the foyer to the kitchen are loose and that was risky. I think it’s a great complex and the unit would be great with a little attention.
    The property was very clean with plenty of household items provided. However, there was no communication on what to do with the trash when emptying the house containers when they are full. This is important in an area where there are bears around . Also, there were no instructions on how to use the Direct TV. We could not get it to work during our stay.
    The condo was perfect for our needs. It was very well stocked and the views from the deck were amazing. My only negatives were that I had sent a message about payment and no one ever responded. FYI – the dryer was not really drying the wet clothes.

    This was our second time staying in this condo, and will not be the last. The location is fantastic and the condo is beautiful. Love it!
    We loved this condo. Beautiful area. Close to restaurants grocery stores outdoor activities. Don’t hesitate on this one. It’s nice. Wish we could buy it
    Average condo.
    Beautiful view, very convenient location.
    We loved the property. It is really in Big Sky proper. While this is a pricey area to visit, this location was more reasonable than another location we stayed at during our trip. Take a fishing pole if you are staying in the area. Take your golf clubs if you can. Great Town area and some neat restaurants and shops.

    Lone Peak Lodge Condo$207/nightly avg

    Lone Peak Lodge claims to be the most beautiful condo on the Big Sky Golf Course, and after flipping through the pictures, there may just be something to that claim. Given its Montana Lodge vibe, you’re going to love the fireplace and outdoor space in this great location. The well-equipped kitchen is a huge bonus, or if grilling is your thing, step out onto the large outdoor viewing deck with a Weber barbecue.

    This two-bedroom rental is just a few blocks from the Golf Club House, Meadow Village, and Country Market. Be sure to check out the hot tub, sauna, or (in the summer) outdoor pool!

    I wouldn’t recommend. It was a decent place to stay. The shared hot tub is more of a warm tub. The day we checked out, we had done a detailed cleaning. We gathered the towels, wiped the counters and then did the dishes. We left one pan soaking as we had used it the morning of however we were charged an additional $80 dollars because they said we completely ruined the pan and burned a hole in a blanket from turning on the fireplace. I have no idea if that is true or not. They charge $250 dollars for a cleaning fee which I’m sure took less than a half hour to complete. The lady communicating with us was not hospitable.
    Anything we could have needed was provided in the condo. Beautifully decorated.
    Great location within Big Sky. Close proximity to many National Park, Forests and State Parks with great hikes.
    Everything was clean, the location was perfect! The host was very attentive!One suggestion: maybe put an umbrella on the patio since it was unseasonably hot while we were there, but gorgeous view!!
    Very nice condo and near all the amenities you may need. Nice and friendly golf course.

    This very comfortable condo is in a great location, just 10 minutes from Big Sky Ski — easily accessible by way of a short drive or a trip on a shuttle. Step out the back door in the winter and enjoy cross country skiing; step out the back door in the summer and you’re on the golf course. 

    Within walking distance is the pub brewery and groceries, and you can enjoy hiking, rafting, kayaking, fly fishing, and more close by. Relax in the indoor pool, hot tub, and sauna just steps away. There’s so much so close — this is a great rental!

    This condo was very comfortable. It had a fully stocked kitchen where we enjoyed preparing all of our meals. We stayed here to attend a wedding at the Big Sky Chapel, and the location was within walking distance to the chapel (although we drove because a thunder storm was brewing). We went on a couple of fantastic hikes in the mountains where the trailheads were within a 30 minute drive of the condo. This was our first time in Big Sky, and we plan to return. We look forward to the opportunity to stay at this condo again.
    Great condo overall and easy access to ski resort.
    The property manager is awesome. Quickly responded to questions and the Condo is at a great location. 12 minutes drive to Big Sky Resort and about one hour from the West Yellowstone Entrance. The place also was clean and convenient.
    We were do please with the accommodations and location!!!
    It’s a beautiful condo and had everything we needed. There was hair in the shower which isn’t a big deal but a little disturbing, especially when the cleaning fee was so high. Otherwise, we enjoyed the property very much.

    Superb house on the river, beds were comfortable, wood stove and fireplace. Hot tub was excellent. Looking forward to booking again.
    It was peaceful and relaxing. It was an amazing getaway to reset. Fishing and hiking and doing absolutely nothing was the best part? Beautiful property. I hope to stay there again someday.
    This house is perfect both inside and outside. We loved the outdoor sitting area and had our suppers out next to the Gallatin River. They have thought of everything to make you feel at home. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us.
    We are repeat visitors & have already booked for next year. The home is spacious, comfortable & well stocked. It is right on the river, which is fabulous! Highly recommend.
    The house was a perfect getaway and place to enjoy the beautiful Montana area. There was everything you needed in the home. The deck on the river was great and everyone loved the hot tub!
