Wonderful Cabin and location

Group of nine of us from two families really loved the cabin, convenience to skiing, hot tub, and the area overall. Between winter trip to Yellowstone and epic skiing for us east coasters was filled with wonderful memories. The ski in ski out is great for skiers but was tougher for the snow boarders with some flats particularly on the return.

Big Sky Family Ski Vacation - thumbs up

Our family of 8 stayed at this vacation rental cabin for 7 days and loved it. The 4 bedrooms (2 with in suite bathrooms) gave us each a place to retreat to rest. The main level was perfect for hanging out, cooking and eating together. We made daily use of the hot tub which gave us spectacular views of the mountains. The kitchen was well-stocked with dishes/pots/pans which made it easy to eat breakfast and dinner at the cabin each day. We had Spring skiing conditions so the ski-in/ski-out was not very easy, but the free parking and shuttle was less than a mile away - so that made it very convenient. The property management person stopped by to make sure we had what we needed and to answer any questions. Overall, we had a great experience.

Chief Gull 1 offered great space for our family of 6. We enjoyed our family time inside and out!

Chief Gull 1 is getting worn and could use some tlc and updates. The cleaning prior to our stay was a quick once over. Bedding was pilled and my wife was thankful she brought bedding to replace it with. Garage had a lot of ice build up and could not pull suv in until we had chopped it out. Timing of roof snow removal was unfortunate as he knocked our direct tv dish out of service. We were grateful for access to another cabin to use when needed. This is NOT an easy ski in/out property. One intermediate skier and 3 boarders had difficulty maintaining speed to and from which meant a lot of walking. Rest had to skate/pole A LOT. NOT happy campers! As a result, the hot tub was great for them and got a lot of use. I know we’ll be slope side next trip and expect more fresh snow. Ramcharger upgrade was great!

Bryon, Thank you so much for the candid feedback about your stay at our cabin. The 3 feet of snow we received in the week prior to your arrival combined with warm temps and melting and freezing did create some challenges. We have communicated your issues with the snow removal to the Home Owners Association who contracts for the roof snow removal and the driveway plowing and snow removal. We are sorry that their work created a delay in service while we worked with Direct TV to re-establish the connection. We pride ourselves on quality cleaning so please in the future, don’t hesitate to call us if there is something less than satisfactory about the clean. We would have happily sent someone back to address any issues, including the sheets. Finally, we try very hard to be accurate with the ski-in/out descriptions and provide our guests with detailed maps and even videos of the ski-in/out. I would highly recommend booking direct with companies when possible so that you can chat with the reservation agent, ask questions and make sure that your expectations will be met for your group. Big Sky does not have much true slopeside lodging except for the hotels in the base area and almost all properties rely on real estate access trails and lifts to access the properties. We would be happy to talk to you about this next time and try and find a place that is better suited for snow boarders. The mountain is certainly more “skier” friendly, but we can suggest some places that might be easier. Again, many thanks for your feedback. We strive to create exceptional vacation experiences for our guests and hearing the “good” with the “bad” challenges us to continually strive for improvement. Sincerely, The Big Sky Vacation Rentals Team

Stunning location and property

From booking to check in and check out the process at this property was flawless and the property itself was everything it stated and more. I would highly recommend renting in this location to anyone thinking of the big sky area. The house was the best stock house I had ever been in for spices appliances and kitchen ware. We also thoroughly enjoy the hot tub and just sitting by the fire.

Great property for 2 couples + kids

Unit has. 2 master bedrooms making it ideal for 2 couples. It’s not straightforward but once you learn how to ski-out and ski-in it’s great for skiing. Property manager wasn’t responsive (requested a snow shovel but never received one) but we didn’t have any major problems. Kitchen could use some updating.

Great stay!

Stayed here with a group of seven for a ski trip. The on-line pictures really do not do justice for this home. It is larger than it appears in the photographs. The agency that manages the rental really could not have been more helpful. We did have an issue with the dishwasher and they came over within hours to work on it. Unfortunately it could not be repaired that same day but they tried so that was fine. If there was a negative to this property it would be the lack of signage on the hill leading to this property. Once you find it you will not have a problem on subsequent ski days.

Wonderful ambiance, pole-in, pole-out

Building is fabulous. Great living room and kitchen with two master suites and two other bedrooms, one a queen and the other queen bunks. Single car garage was nice to keep snow off the car and have skis melted off each day. Property is near the hills, accessed via ski-ways that get very flat. Kids had to pole significantly on the flat areas, especially in fresh snow. Not as convenient ski-in/out as we expected but still better than driving.

The Ski-out to the White Otter Access lift does have some flat areas that require picking up speed at the beginning or poling. Fresh snow is great once you are on the main slopes, but does make the access difficult! We look forward to hosting you again, thanks for a great experience! -Big Sky Vacation Rentals Team

Beautiful ski in/out cabin for the whole family

This was our 2nd time staying in this cabin which is loaded with tons of amenities. Everything is there to make your stay extremely special. The kitchen has everything you could ever need to to make that special meal (or just order in) to share with your family at the end of a long day on the mountain. Or, you can have a relaxing evening in the hot tub on the back deck with amazing mountain views. When your ready to hit the slopes there is easy access immediately behind the cabin to ski in/out. This also serves as great access for those with kids who want to use the multiple sleds provided to enjoy their off time sledding behind the house. Our three kids spent hours playing around the house each day. At the end of an amazing ski/snowboard session go hang your boots and gloves on the drier while you relax by the large fireplace (plenty of wood provided) and go over all the pictures you took on the apple TV with everyone. There is also very reliable secure wifi in the cabin as well as satellite TV with multiple viewing options. The 2 master suites (total of 4 rooms/3 bath in the cabin ) are very comfortable and extremely clean. The Property managers were always available for questions and were there to offer assistance or even give suggestions on activities or the best restaurants in the area. A must stay!!!!
