Earthship Home in Big Sky
About this space
Dec 2025. Please note this house is undergoing some changes. Pictures will be updated soon. New pictures will show a King size bed in the Bedroom. Queen size living room floor bed. Also, I removed the wood burning heater for an electric freestanding heater for a multitude of reasons. Most everything else is correct in photos.
This is an amazing retreat to reset, reflect, and recreate. Designed with a slow pace in mind. This 1600ft. house is also equipped to work with 72mbps internet speeds. Listen to your favorite music on the home Sonos system, or the creek from the back patio. Then head to the wood fired sauna.
Located less than an hour to Yellowstone National Park, and at the doorstep to Big Sky Resort
Winter Guests: All wheel drive vehicle required
The space This is a place for dreamers to reset, reflect, and create. Make coffee by French press in the morning, choose the perfect music to put on as the sun sets, listen to the creek on the back patio, or just relax in the wood fired sauna. Did we mention rainbows and full moons?! We have everything for you to discharge and recharge.
Experience sustainable living with all the modern amenities in the beautiful greater Yellowstone Park ecosystem at Big Sky, Montana.

Earth Home tucked into the mountains with beautiful views
All of the comforts of home, yet secluded and serene. Loved the wall of windows facing south that provided all the heat we needed for the day. The woodburning stove was lovely in the evenings. The kitchen was well stocked, and I was able to cook with ease. We loved the place and we would stay there again if the opportunity arose.

Incredible winter wonderland weekend in the COOLEST house ever!!
Thank you Jeff for your incredible hospitality! Your home is absolutely beautiful with stunning views. Cannot recommend this place enough!From the views, great location, self-sustaining house, sauna, etc… just perfect. Jeff is so kind, even helping us when we got stuck. I will stress that since it is located high up on the mountain (great view!) when renting a car 4-wheel drive is an absolute must during winter!! We will be back in the summer:) Thanks again!
