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.

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.

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!

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.

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.
