Jul 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Absolutely stunning! The views cant be beat! The house is situated in a perfect spot at the edge of an alpine meadow. Lots of wildlife. If you are looking for the perfect backcountry cabin this is it. We loved the easy access to the beehive basin trail system. Nice large porch to sit on and enjoy the freah air. ##### Dana J. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Thomas M. Sep 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We are not exaggerating when we say this is breathtaking. You can sit on your couch and watch the sunset. Lay in the bed and watch the sunrise. Stars you feel like you can touch. Animals you see from the windows Don’t be cocky and think you can get there without following the owners directions like we did!! :) ##### Thomas M. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### BRADLEY B. Jul 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication Disliked: Location Great potential and a peaceful location but we did have some issues. The mountain and sunset views from inside the home are mostly blocked by pine trees. The shower handle is in a very inconvenient place! We had a small ant problem inside the home and the fire alarms would randomly turn on at night and wake us up. Other customers should know that a 4x4 is suggested to get to the home. The drive to the home is about 20-25 minutes from Big Sky Town center. Also, understand that it is a "tiny home" and there is not much room for luggage or to unpack. ##### BRADLEY B.
