We stayed in the Porcupine cabin. It was clean and had high end furnishings throughout. Casey at the front desk was very helpful with our questions and Dagen gave us a tour of the beautiful property. These two worked hard to make our stay memorable. Highly recommend!!

The staff was really helpful when we had to leave a day ahead of our checkout due to a winter storm. The grounds of this facility were beautiful and I wish we could have stayed and enjoyed it and the restaurant. I would certainly like to go back.

This was a very quiet, clean and beautiful place to stay. The back deck overlooks the River .So relaxing to just sit there and listen to the sound of the flowing water. Loved the real wood burning fireplace too! Staff was super nice and accommodating.

Snowy December
Planned a couples getaway to see snow in December and this trip and lodge did not disappoint. There was a slight issue with our room when we arrived, but the staff made it right and moved us into another room. Location was technically in Big Sky but outside of the main area where all the huddle and bustle is. Loved the location. Breakfast was included and delicious. Great little place outside of town! Restaurant is also very good.

Overall disappointment
We were disappointed overall. The value for the price was not good. The breakfast was comparable to or less than any motel that offers breakfast. Half of the lights in our unit did not work. The water faucet by the coffee maker did not work. The bed was not all that comfortable. The setting was very nice. The shower was great.

Close to big sky
The stay was ok. People were kind and friendly and well intentioned. I guess the property is rated higher by people who chose it as a romantic retreat. It would be very helpful if during ski season the property would open earlier than 8am so that people who are there for skiing don’t have to rush through breakfast worried that the parking lots in big sky will be full by the time they make it up there. For the price per night, the bathrooms really need to be updated. They have a nice hot tub though. Anyway, I have the feeling that that whole area is overrated.
