In the winter, enjoy privacy as well as a prime location as you are only a (10) minute drive from Big Sky Resort and America's Biggest Skiing! If you enjoy backcountry skiing, this is also the home for you with some of the best the lower 48 has to offer. During the winter months, a 4-wheel drive is required, and snow tires are recommended to navigate the narrow, winding mountain road - ensuring a safe and enjoyable journey to your remote retreat.
**Please Note: The section of the deck in between the covered area and the hot tub area will be CLOSED due to the periodic slides from the roof. This is for the safety of our guests. Please see photos for specific area.**

This home is at a higher elevation of approx. 8500 ft.
Events of any size are not allowed when staying at this property in accordance with the neighborhood/HOA rules.
The home is equipped with heat for the cooler months, ensuring a cozy stay year-round. This home does not have air conditioning.
Most homes in Big Sky don't, thanks to our typically mild summer temperatures. For a true Montana experience, we recommend our classic "Montana A/C": open the windows at night to let in the cool mountain air, then close them and draw the blinds first thing in the morning to keep the cool air inside throughout the remainder of the day. We are a local property management company. So if there is anything you need before, during, or after your trip, please let us know!

Everything about our stay was top notch. We loved the property which was perfect for our large group. The views are incredible and property manager was so helpful. Highly recommend!
We enjoyed our stay at this property and helped create a perfect summer family vacation. Communications with the property managers were excellent. Had two minor issues and they were quick to resolve both. The property is in the Beehive Basin with fantastic views of Lone Peak & the country.
What an incredible piece of property. We had a wonderful time and the house was very spacious. The best part of the house is how large the deck is where we enjoyed a lot of laughs and sunsets. Would highly recommend!!
location was at approximately 8500ft. The road up was a narrow, sometimes dirt road that i would not travel at night. The only drawback to the house was access to the property.
Group of 12 men for annual ski trip (35 years).
Property is stunning and easily accommodated our large group but maintenance is not comparable. Kitchen was not well equipped. Road was not plowed and one vehicle had to be abandoned overnight. The road is quite difficult but passable if plowed. In Primary BR toilet seat broken. Rugs not laundered.
Twin Pines Realtors were very responsive and helpful.
The location couldn't be more majestic! Quiet, secluded with Incredible views! Awesome deck with a fire pit, picnic tables, and a hot tub! direct access to the Beehive Basin trailhead. The pictures online are a few years old and the home is slightly dated. also, the home could have been supplied better with things like sliver ware, wine glasses, paper towels, coffee filters etc.
Nice property for adults and children, private location with great views, plenty of room, great location. We took day trips to Yellowstone and also found great hiking nearby. Kitchen is well equipped, house was very clean, and property manager was quick to respond to questions. We would like to return in ski season. Definitely reccommend!
We had a wonderful time in this stunning chalet. Fit our large family perfectly. The location is a bit on the remote side which made it even more special, surrounded by beautiful forest, meadows and mountain tops.
Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay in Big Sky. Gorgeous home with phenomenal views of Lone Peak right out the window. Open living area with tall ceilings, wood burning stove, great kitchen, and plenty of sleeping area. Proximity to the resort is great with a 10-15 minute down a private drive. The drive can get a bit hairy with snow cover so be prepared with the right type of vehicle/driver. Had an absolute blast, would love to stay again.
We loved this house! Absolutely perfect for a large family like ours (group of 9). Great fire pit, fun hot tub, amazing kitchen and common areas, and spacious bedrooms. Getting to it after a good snowfall can be tricky, but we’ll worth the trek. Just be sure to get a 4 wheel drive.
You cannot beat these views, access to hiking, and peaceful seclusion. The property management company for the property was fantastic and responded to every need we had over our week at the property.
This property was great for 15 family members from ages 4-75. The views were gorgeous, and there was enough space for all of us to sleep, eat and play. The road to access the property might be challenging for some, but the location is worth it. Proximity to Beehive Basin Trail was a plus. They could use some new tableware and chair upholstery, but otherwise it was perfect!
This was hands down the nicest ski house I have ever stayed in! The views, the cleanliness, the amenities this place had it all and best of all, at an affordable rate! The property manager made check-in a breeze and could not have been more accommodating leading up to and during our stay. Highly recommend this to all future guests - you will not be disappointed!
This Beehive Basin home makes you feel as though you are on your own private mountain, nestled in the beautiful Montana wilderness. Everything was wonderful, would highly recommend!
Had a guys ski trip with five of us, plenty of private sleeping rooms, awesome gathering spaces and a kitchen that allows you to cook before and after a day of skiing. Hot tub was perfect, view was amazing, if you’re looking for a real Montana mountain home experience, this one is for you!
This property has absolutely amazing and fantastic views. It was such a relaxing week, sitting in the large decks and enjoying the sounds and views. The house is very spacious and well payed out. We may have a company sales retreat back here in September.
Came to Big Sky with some family and friends for a ski trip and This was an outstanding place to stay. It was remarkably convenient to the resort, yet felt very isolated while we were there, which was exactly what we were looking for. The hot tub was a major high point, but we loved everything about the property. I truly hope we can stay here again in the future.
