Expansive panes of glass truly bring the outdoors into this Big Sky rental home and with the crackling of the wood-burning fireplace, there’s no better place to make Big Sky memories. There are plenty of cozy places to gather in this chalet. From the well-equipped kitchen and dining area to the lower level living room and outside decks.

Ski Access:

Both options lead to White Otter chair lift's loading point below the home. The anticipated opening date for White Otter lift is December 16, but the lift may open earlier in the season depending on snow conditions. The lift typically closes in mid-April, prior to resort closing. The home is not ski-in/out unless White Otter Lift is open. Please inquire for details.

Ski Out:
Exit the garage and cross the cul du sac to Claim Jumper 8. Ski around the corner onto the groomed access trail behind the cabin and cross over the White Otter Skier Bridge. Follow this trail along the White Otter Chair lift to the bottom to load the lift. There are a few sections of flat that may require poling or skating. (Green access)

Ski In:
From the top of Swift Current, ski Jay Walk to Lower Morning Star. Once on Lower Morningstar, ski past the first set of Powder Ridge signs and take a left at the SECOND set of Powder Ridge signs. Follow the signs towards the White Otter access. Once on White Otter Access, immediately exit the trail to the left next to Claim Jumper 16 to access your rental prior to crossing the White Otter Access Bridge. (Green access)

Great place to stay!
The house itself is fantastic, very big, lots of room for all 18 of us. The kids loved the bunkbeds, the adults without kids were happy to stay on the 3rd floor where the kid noise didn't come thru. The hot tub was a big hit, we went in every day. And the 2 patios were also a big hit, with a fire pit for smores! We used the BBQ grill, all the kitchen housewares, everything worked well. Highly recommended!

Such a beautiful place
We've been in the neighborhood before and just love it. Gorgeous views, great location, conveniently close to the mountain lifts, etc. The place is great with good-sized kitchen and nice rooms. Some pieces showed a bit of wear and tear (most of the towel racks hung by a thread), but overall it was very nice and enjoyable. One other wish is that there was more room to eat. The dining table seats 8 and the bar another 4, but the house sleeps 18. BBQ was great (nice big Weber) and the hot tub was enjoyable. We liked the real wood fireplace and watched football on the large TV (that's mounted a bit too high, but it worked fine). We had a great time.

Magical Montana
This property was absolutely stunning and situated right on top of the mountains. The house had so much space and was perfect for our large family! It’s convenient to restaurants and shopping and we even saw so much wildlife right from our back porch! The staff was always quick to respond to any issues and made our trip easy. We will definitely be back!

Family reunion
This house was amazing. It is set up perfectly for an area that the kids can play in and a separate area for adults to relax in. The amount of bedrooms and bathrooms were perfect for our group. We had 7 children and 7 adults. The property owners were great and answered our questions in a very prompt time frame. We loved it!

Great location beautiful house
This is a great property for large groups plenty of room inside the house there’s only a few things I’d like the manager to consider: Cooking hardware has been a little overused so getting new ones would be great. The towels stunk so bad we had to wash them before we used them. The grounds were a bit dirty also there were a lot of ants around the hot tub. That being said I would highly recommend the property specifically for large groups with kids and teenagers.

Nice house but could change a few things
The house is beautiful and the linens and appliances are nice. Shared driveway is inconvenient. Living room breaker kept tripping. Had to run an extension cord to an outlet on a different breaker for the wifi and tv to stay on. House stays very hot. Even when adjusting thermostat to cooler temps. Boot drying rack was awesome. House was clean and stocked with necessities. Another living area would be nice for a house that sleeps so many people. Plow could have came more since there was significant snow fall. Shoveling of walkways was nice. Kitchen well stocked but could use a few more serving type plates. Hard to back out of drive with lots of snow since it angles right after garage and the opening is small so not much room to maneuver a large vehicle. Overall very nice. Just a few tweaks would make it even better.
