Casa Moonlight One - Ideal Rental for Summer Activities and Trips to Yellowstone

RECENTLY RENOVATED - a partner property to CASAMOONLIGHT TWO (VRBO Listing # 388139)

FREE INTERNET

Luxurious 2 bed - 2.5 bath, ski in - out, slopeside, rental town house / ski lodge

Full home comforts in a relaxed and spacious ski home set in the Rocky Mountains, just one hour drive from both Bozeman and West Yellowstone, Montana

This is one of two prime located Saddle Ridge units, just one door apart from each other (rent both if you are a large group or come with another family) collectively known as Casa Moonlight, Big Sky, Montana, Ski Resort

This Montana vacation rental is on Saddle Ridge at 8,000 feet above sea level between two of the most spectacular ski resorts in the West: Big Sky Resort and Moonlight Basin.

No other alpine ski area in the U.S. offers what the interconnected slopes of Big Sky Resort and Moonlight Basin do - extraordinary SKI - IN, SKI - OUT opportunities, among the highest vertical drops for groomed skiing in the U.S. (including hike-to terrain), world-class recreation year-round, and superb amenities and services.

Ski right out the back door and onto the Pony Express Run or to the Iron Horse Lift and you have access to over 5,250 lift-served acres of world-class alpine skiing.


Located on the warm southern facing elevated ridge that lies between the Moonlight and the Big Sky ski area, with panoramic views on all sides, Casa Moonlight is directly above the Iron Horse and Pony Express lifts which access both the Moonlight and the Big Ski base area and the mountains beyond. You can ski back to Casa Moonlight from both Big Sky and Moonlight basin ski areas.

Skiing and boarding are the main winter activities. There is ample lift serviced terrain in the 2 resorts, but if you feel the need to venture further, various back country options are available .

Summer activities in Big Sky fall into two main categories. Those organised by the resort, including Lone Peak Expeditions, Adventure Zip-line Tours, Climbing Walls etc and those to be found in the greater South West Montana area including Fishing and Rafting on the Gallatin, Hiking, Mountain Biking, Golf and of course all that Yellowstone Park ( nearest boundary - half an hour away) and West Yellowstone (just over an hour away) have to offer.

Casa Moonlight is a recently renovated log fronted three storey town house with a floor area of approximately 1,800 square feet in the Saddle Ridge development of the Moonlight Basin, Big Sky, commanding panoramic and unobstructed views of Lone Peak and the Big Sky and Moonlight Basin Ski Area

The new owners, who divide their time between Chile, Thailand and Montana, live in a nearby home and will personally manage your stay at Casa Moonlight throughout the ski season.

Ski Right Out the Back Door!

Casa Moonlight is approximately 1,800 square feet, has 2 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, and sleeps up to 7 adults. This Montana ski-in ski-out vacation condo is a luxury accommodation in every respect:

There are slate floors in the entry, bathrooms and kitchen. The vacation rental custom furniture is made out of Ponderosa Pine. This Montana condo is filled with unique western art, but the unforgettable views from all the rooms, make this vacation home a place to remember.

The kitchen is fully equipped with all appliances, flatware and utensils.

Casa Moonlight is located 45 miles from Bozeman Airport (BZN).

Perfect Location!
I don’t know if William sent the snow for us- but it snowed every day and the location of Casa Moonlight was perfect to hit the mountain early and even come back to midday if necessary. Our pre-check in booklet with area recommendations was greatly appreciated and went above and beyond! Thank you! We can’t wait to stay again!

Location is the best
If having the best location then this is the perfect condo. If quality of linens and kitchen amenities matter then you might not be satisfied. The listing says newly renovated; and I think that is a stretch. It might have been renovated about five years ago or better. It did have all the basics you could need, it just needs some maintenance. Humidifiers did not work and we had to replace some of the light bulbs. Little things, but for the price you pay I expect more.

Cool Spot
Location is amazing and wonderful views. Advertisement was accurate. A few simple little updates here and there could really tie this place in. 8 people would be to tight here. 6 would be comfortable. We had 8 planned and Fortunately 4 had to back out so having it to just us 4 was really ideal. We would absolutely stay here again

Perfect ski in/ski out
This is our group’s third year staying at Big Sky. In the past we have stayed at one of the properties affiliated with the resort. We absolutely loved staying at this location with such easy access to our favorite runs on Moonlight side. Having a full kitchen was a plus as well. The cabin had plenty of space for our group of two couples plus two friends. We would absolutely stay here again.

Spring Break Ski Trip
Lucked out with some amazing late season snow at Big Sky. Almost the entire resort was open with no lift lines. Skied for most of the week and did not hit a single icy patch. Home was super convenient ski in/out. Would literally sit in the hot tub each night, sipping coffee and looking at Lone Mountain peak as sun set. My boys (16, 15 and 13) said it was the best ski trip we have taken. House was very well appointed with all the kitchen cookware and gadgets we needed to eat most of our meals at home. Did splurge one night at the Lone Peak Ranch. Awesome meal but it was not cheap. Would definitely come back again.

Casa Moonlight is in the perfect location to enjoy ski in/ski out. Our family enjoyed the hot tub after a day on the slopes, made great meals in the kitchen, and the conditions were perfect! Casa Moonlight could use some furniture updates and more kid friendly kitchen utensils but overall enjoyed our stay.

Overall a great experience. You can’t beat strapping in 100 feet from your front door and hopping on the lift. Plenty of parking, nice additional amenities (humidifiers, extra heaters, other appliances), and very well suited for winter time skiing. Would recommend.

Excellent Ski-in/Ski-out
The location was great with beautiful deck views of Lone Peak. The hot tub was a great addition. Very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. The condo is a short walk to the slope entrance but right there at the bottom of the Iron Wolf lift. We went with our two teenage nieces and it was nice having them in the upstairs bedroom and us in the lower bedroom. We also enjoyed skiing the Madison area - less crowded and great green and blue runs!

Great location, however the inside of the unit is in dire need of a deep cleaning, numerous repairs.
Wonderful location, enjoyed the views, ski-in/out, however the unit requires a deep cleaning - excessive dust - on main room fan, not able to turn on, fear of being covers in dust….cob-webs and grease abound. Bedding and kitchen are tired and need updating. 2 grills on the small back deck, one needs to be removed, completely broke. The one that “works” had to be light by hand - igniter broken?! Screen door off track as well as shower door in Master BR. No attention to detail by the property manager…

Great Ski In / Ski Out for Big Sky -- Moonlight
We didn't want to hassle with driving to parking or buying lunch at one of the lodges. This condo checked all the boxes and let us ski in/out and stop back for lunch. There is a full kitchen, an area for everyone to relax and hot tub. Count your beds/party since some will be sharing rooms or on a pull-out.

Love Montana. People are very friendly. Food was great
Nice get away .Plan on at least one hour to get to your destination. You don't mind driving because of the beautiful scenery. We saw a family of elk , a moose one night driving up to Big Sky. Definitely felt that we were overcharged for cleaning fees and did not feel that it was Sanitized for covid. Just regular cleaning . Would definitely go back to Montana any day. Just may look into other places to stay that do not have so many add on fees.

Nice property in the mountains
The casa moonlight has a great location in the mountains. You are about 5 minutes from Big Sky resort, and 10 minutes from the town square. Its quiet at night, with great biking and hiking trails and wonderful patio. The hot tub and mountain views are great. Inside the property is a little outdated, with electronics that do not work. It also lacks a few homely type feel to it. So you need to buy or bring your own things. However we enjoyed our stay at the casa moonlight.

Great ski in/ski out
The condo was comfortable and had great access to Iron House just a short walk up the driveway. We were there the last week the mountain was open and had the best ski conditions of our lives. Just perfect. The home has plenty of what you need to be comfortable (kitchen supplies, towels, TP, etc.) and a great hot tub that kids and adults both enjoyed. The only issue was the stove where the gas burners did not reliably light. It needs to be either repaired or replaced.
