True Ski In/Out + Steps to Chair 3 + Hot Tub + Treehouse Magic + PS5

Steps from Chair 3 at Whitefish Mountain Resort, Hope Slope Treehouse feels like the kind of place you would have dreamed up as a kid — except someone actually built it. Curved architecture. Tree trunks. Walls of windows. Murals that bring Montana inside. Ski in and ski out in winter. Ride lifts, hike, mountain bike, zipline, and explore the mountain in summer. Then come back to a private hot tub overlooking Hope Slope and a mountain stay that feels less like a house and more like stepping into a storybook.

💫 The Highlights — Why Guests Love It

Treehouse magic outside. More treehouse magic inside. Warmth, adventure, and a little wonder around every corner.

Whether you're planning a once-in-a-lifetime Whitefish trip, introducing kids to the mountains for the first time, gathering family together, or bringing grandparents along for the adventure, Hope Slope Treehouse was designed to create the kinds of memories people keep talking about long after the trip ends.

3 sleeping spaces · 4 full bathrooms · sleeps up to 10 guests

✓ True ski-in / ski-out location — Chair 3 is literally steps away
✓ Private hot tub overlooking Hope Slope
✓ One-of-a-kind treehouse architecture with soaring ceilings, tree elements, and walls of windows
✓ Hand-painted Montana murals throughout by a local Whitefish artist
✓ Fourth-story turret hideaway with twinkle lights and mountain views
✓ Family sleeping spaces with built-in bunks and fiber optic night sky ceiling
✓ Gourmet kitchen with Thermador gas range and space built for gathering
✓ Gas fireplace, games, PS5, and cozy spaces throughout
✓ Weber gas grill + outdoor dining overlooking the mountain
✓ Two dedicated parking spaces for large vehicles
✓ Walk to resort restaurants, shops, and mountain activities

🏠 Inside

Big mountain days tend to have a rhythm of their own.

First chair in the morning. Tired legs by afternoon. Hot showers. Hot tub after dark.

Then dinner somehow turns into cards around the table. Someone quietly sneaks into the hot tub early. Nobody seems particularly interested in tomorrow yet.

Hope Slope Treehouse makes the most of every square foot. Curved architecture, natural cedar, murals, huge windows, and thoughtful details create a space that feels larger and more magical than you'd expect.

The kitchen tends to become part of the experience too: big breakfasts before first chair, soup and sandwiches between runs, hot chocolate after skiing, and dinners that somehow last a little longer.

And somewhere along the way, somebody usually discovers the fourth-floor turret hideaway with twinkle lights and mountain views — and suddenly everyone starts making their case for why it should become their spot. Kids love it. Adults love it. Turns out treehouse magic doesn't really care how old you are.

🛏 Where You'll Sleep

Hope Slope works especially well for families and close groups who value being together and experiencing something truly unique. The tradeoff for the treehouse architecture and magical shared spaces is less bedroom privacy during sleep than a traditional mountain home.

Lower Level King Suite

✓ King bed
✓ Private ensuite bathroom

Lower Level Bunk Area

✓ Two custom Twin XL bunk sets (4 Twin XL beds total)
✓ Full bathroom just outside in hallway

Upper Loft Sleeping Space

✓ King bed
✓ Twin XL bunk set (2 Twin XL beds)
✓ Full bathroom steps away

A quick note on layout: The lower-level bunks are built into an open hallway-style area, and the upper loft sleeping space has no walls or doors separating the king bed, bunks, or living room below. Guests who love Hope Slope usually love being together. Guests wanting multiple fully private bedrooms may prefer a more traditional layout.

✓ Four full bathrooms total
✓ Fresh linens, pillows, and extra blankets throughout

🌲 Outside

Maybe it's watching skiers glide by from the hot tub. Maybe it's dinner on the deck while the sun drops behind the mountains. Maybe it's ending the day under the trees while tomorrow's adventure already starts becoming the conversation.

Winter brings skis and snow. Summer brings hiking, lift rides, mountain biking, ziplining, and long evenings outside.

Somehow everyone still ends up together at the end of the day.

🅿️ Parking & Access

✓ Two dedicated parking spaces for large vehicles (one at the front of the house and one at the rear)
✓ Easy unloading for luggage and mountain gear
✓ After signing your rental agreement you'll receive access to our digital guest guide with check-in instructions, local recommendations, house details, and everything you'll need for an easy arrival

📍 Explore Whitefish & Beyond

Walkable Resort Area

Most guests think they'll spend more time away from the mountain than they actually do.

👋 Meet Beata

Hi — I'm Beata.

I wanted Hope Slope Treehouse to feel like more than just a place to sleep after a day on the mountain.

I wanted it to feel like the kind of place where kids get excited about stars over their bunks, where adults sink into the hot tub after a full day outside, and where everyone quietly agrees that leaving tomorrow suddenly feels like a terrible idea.

I personally manage every reservation because hospitality matters deeply to me. Small things are automated for speed so nothing waits. Anything important comes directly from me.

Take what you need from the Pay-It-Forward pantry. Leave what you can.

Happy to have you.
— Beata

Truly the best experience ever

Our family of 7 recently had the pleasure of staying in the treehouse and it was an absolutely fantastic experience. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the breathtaking views of the slopes and the seamless access to the mountain. It was a skier’s paradise especially with kids—literally step out the door, strap on your skis, and you're on the slope in seconds.The convenience of being able to ski directly from the cabin was a game changer. No waiting in long lines or worse a drive to the resort. The cabin was situated in the perfect spot for easy access to the ski trails, and after a long day of skiing, it was such a relief to ski right up to the door, kick off my boots, and relax. The cabin itself was incredibly cozy and well-appointed. It had a rustic charm that combined perfectly with modern touches, creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The living area was spacious and inviting, with large windows offering panoramic views of the snow-covered mountains. The fireplace was a nice touch, providing the perfect ambiance for unwinding after a day on the slopes. The décor was stylish yet comfortable, making it feel like a true home away from home.The amenities at the cabin were top-notch. The fully equipped kitchen made cooking meals perfect for us.The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful, ensuring that we had everything we needed during our stay. They provided detailed instructions on how to make the most of our stay, perfect and stress free.

Snow Bear Chalets- the BEST place to stay at Whitefish Mountain Resort!

This property is 5-stars for so many reasons! The location is unbeatable- ON the slope at Whitefish Mountain Resort, which is just perfect for summer or a winter holiday. The treehouses are amazing! The architecture and the interior design are like something out of a movie. Our kids LOVED the starry turret, as did all of the adults too. Something about this place seems to bring out the inner child in all of us. Inside, from the luxury bedding and the most comfortable sleep ever, to the fully decked-out kitchen with everything a gourmet chef would need to create a masterpiece, to the furnishings, the AVEDA bath amenities, the views and so much more. I could write pages of how amazing these three treehouses truly are. We're looking forward to bringing our entire family - 22 people- with us next time and renting all three treehouses! If you're looking for luxury on Whitefish Mountain, this is the only place to stay, regardless of the season. Only 30 seconds from the slopes, 4 miles from charming downtown Whitefish with restaurants and shops, and a 15 minute drive to the airport, I'm not sure how it gets better than this. We certainly will be back, again and again. It's our family's favorite place to stay in Whitefish! Thank you for creating Snow Bear Chalets and for sharing it with us.

Great stay! Definite recommend!!

We booked all three Snow Bear chalets for a family trip and they worked out perfectly. The units were a great change from our usual hotel stays and you can't beat being located right on the slope! But what really made the stay was the owner, Gail, and property manager Teresa. They bent over backwards to respond and source every one of our requests including a chef, babysitter, rental equipment and ski instructors. These are the things that usually make us nervous about a house rental that usually lack compared to a hotel concierge but they were better than any five star hotel. We had a fantastic stay and definitely plan to return next ski season

Perfect chalet for a family vacation!

The Cedar Chalet at Snow Bear Chalets was the perfect place for our summer holiday with our family. The interior of the chalet is gorgeous, and they owners really thought of everything we would possibly need. When you walk outside, that's when your jaw will hit the ground. The views of the mountains of Glacier National Park are stunning. You're right on the ski slope, with more than 3000 acres for hiking and biking. We loved taking the gondola to the top and hiking down- the vistas were simply breathtaking. Snow Bear has a perfect location with the easiest possible access to Whitefish Mountain Resort, the Village and downtown Whitefish. Life really doesn't get much better than this. We'll most definitely be back this winter for some awesome skiing. Thanks for hosting us!
