Jul 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Absolutely beautiful home We stay in the Big Sky area every year and this was our favorite place. The guest house was beyond our expectations. It was private and right on the Gallatin River. The home was clean and inviting. Very spacious, lots of room, incredibly clean. Close enough to Big Sky, without the traffic it can sometimes have. We very much enjoyed our stay. Bed in the master bedroom was super comfortable. We loved our stay and can’t wait to come back. Terry and Carolyne were perfect hosts. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4de10789-8c9f-4b37-a380-8bf7d5e2ff3d-1753541130038.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/32ec7507-dca3-42d3-af3d-1fc664700a70-1753541129980.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/397f2994-796a-4aff-a83e-9a9cdbd5e23c-1753541129710.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6e4c5679-b223-4253-913b-0ed4e82288be-1753541130455.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### John G.

We also enjoyed grilling on the deck and using the hot tub after a tough day of hiking some of Big Sky's challenging trails. Centrally located for all your outdoor activities. We took day trips to Yellowstone and also enjoyed an awesome rafting adventure down the Gallatin River. ##### Douglas H. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Greta L.

And our hosts made everything flawless during our stay. The amenities of the property are exactly as described in the listing. Everything is on hand to make your stay delightful. The scenery is over the top and the location is perfectly situated for day trips to Yellowstone, Big Sky and other wonderful "eye candy" places. The home was spotless and beautifully maintained. As we sat out on the deck during our first day.....the four of us were planning our return or next trip. We had a wonderful stay!! ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melissa F. Aug 22, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful home, beautiful location, awesome hosts! My family of 4 brought along the grandparents and we all had a wonderful time enjoying this home, it as perfect! We had many fun nights around the dining room table playing cards and it was even cool enough to have a fire one night, what a treat! We loved the river out back, my boys spent hours building boats out of sticks and leaves and letting them "set sail" while my husband fished in the river every day! We loved the deck, bbq, and coffee and wine while listening to the sounds of the river. Carolyn and Terri where delightful hosts and were so wonderful answering our questions, it was a pleasure meeting them and staying at their beautiful home. We hope to come back soon! ##### Melissa F.

We can't say enough about this property! It is a lovely guest house that is well supplied with everything you may need or want. The location is also perfect!!! It was so comfortable and we loved listening to the Gallatin River as we drifted off to sleep each night. The Gallatin is just feet away off the beautiful deck and we enjoyed sitting there each evening...watching the water and looking for wildlife. We love fly fishing and were able to catch and release some nice trout right in this spot! The icing on the cake was that the Hosts, Terry & Carolyn, were so welcoming, informative and helpful. We spent just a short amount of time with them and left feeling like we have new friends. We are so appreciative that they shared their piece of paradise with us! ##### don m. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julie B. Jan 3, 2017 #### Lovely winter haven Our family of 6 came over the Christmas holidays and spent our time downhill skiing at Big Sky (20 min drive from the house), miles of beautiful cross country skiing at Lone Mountain Ranch, hiking, and one day of snowmobiling in Yellowstone (50 min drive). On a rest day we drove into Bozeman to shop, see a movie and go to the indoor climbing gym. So much to do. The house is nicely situated off the road so you have a feeling of privacy and seclusion, and the back deck is right on the Gallatin River. Hot tub on the deck is fantastic: gentle snowfall on your head or millions of stars on a clear night. The house is spacious and clean, love the Montana decor. Has everything you need for a fabulous family vacation. ##### Julie B. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2016 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Janet R. Jun 14, 2017 #### Fabulous property Our party consisted of 4 adults. We arrived June 4, 2017 staying for 6 days at this special home. The home is spacious and very comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed relaxing on the deck with our coffee in the morning and then in the hot tub in the evening - both with the sound of the Gallatin River as it flowed by. It doesn't get any better! Carolyn and Terry's attention to detail is reflected in all aspects of the house. They responded immediately to any question we had. We booked a full day tour of Yellowstone and took the lift tour to the top of Lone Mountain as well as some short driving trips to check out the wildlife. It is the perfect spot to experience the grandeur of the Big Sky area. We would definitely recommend this property. ##### Janet R. Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### michele s. Jun 25, 2018 #### AMAZING! We had a wonderful time at the O'Neill guesthouse. The pictures do not do it justice! Lots of family memories made. Despite the rain. We still had a great time. We traveled back and forth to Yellowstone several times. Great hikes and lots of site seeing both in Yellowstone and Big Sky. Hot tub was amazing, nice and relaxing after a long day. The calming sounds of the river made it even more relaxing. The house it self was very spacious with great amenities. Lots of board games, popcorn maker with supplies, nicely equipped kitchen, great beds and comfy sheets.They even supplied bear spray! This was our first time to the area, our family vacations usually are to the beach....so glad the kids asked to do something different this year! Thank you so much Terry and Carolyn for having us. ##### michele s. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2018 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Betsy R. Jul 11, 2014 #### This home exceeded our expectations!! We can't say enough about this home! This was our first time visiting Big Sky and we couldn't have chosen a better spot. Carolyn and Terry were such gracious hosts and were so helpful in helping us plan our family vacation. We stayed busy with white water rafting (Montana Whitewater), fly-fishing, lots of hiking, and a trip to Yellowstone. Our kids zip-lined at Big Sky Resort while my husband and I hiked some of the trails on the resort. We had 5 adults and 3 boys (15, 14, and 11)staying in the house. There was plenty of room for everyone and the beds were all so comfortable. The kitchen was very well stocked with utensils and cookware. We grilled out on the deck a few nights and ate out one night at the Riverhouse Saloon. The hot tub is brand new and is perfect to sit out under the stars after dark. Also, the cool, dry weather gave us a much needed break from the Louisiana heat! We all agreed this was one of our best vacations and plan to come back to stay here when we come back! Thanks, Terry and Carolyn! ##### Betsy R. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jessica D., Lafayette, LA USA Jun 4, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Under the Big Sky From initial deposit to end of stay, the property owners communicated very well and efficiently. The home is exactly as it is promoted in the ad, but what you can't see in pictures is tranquility. Pictures do not do it justice. Home is comfortable and everything is provided. Checking in was the easiest I have ever experienced. Sitting on the back deck was so relaxing as we listened to the river rolling on. Best sound machine ever. We did have a little situation with the refrigerator, but the owners came right over and assessed the issue immediately. If you want a great location and easy drive to Yellowstone, this is definitely the place to stay. If we are ever close to Big Sky Montana, this will be our home away from home. Thanks to Carolyn and Terry, we had an amazing Montana Adventure. P.S. We are 6 ladies who travel together, so our expectations are high. This home met every expectation. ##### Jessica D. Stayed 6 nights in May 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer K. Jun 17, 2018 #### Outstanding! There is a reason every review of this amazing space is so positive! We have done numerous VRBO's and this experience was by far the easiest and most true to what is depicted - and yet so much more. Almost hesitate to describe the beauty of Big Sky and the ONeil guest house because we plan on returning soon and are afraid it wont be available ;) but Carolyn and Terry deserve the accolades for the beautiful space they have made available. The house was exactly as pictured, and very clean! The bedrooms were perfect for our 2 families of 4 with the most comfortable bedding and sheets. We ate just about every dinner at the house and the kitchen was more than adequately stocked and with quality cookware and knives! Plus eating on the deck can't be beat - even with the snow in June! We divided our time between hiking, fishing and zip lining in the Big Sky area and touring Yellowstone. The attention to detail in the house (provisions , popcorn machine, decor, Bose speakers, quality bedding and towels, and well maintained deck and hot tub) and the natural beauty of Big Sky is quite simply one of the best experiences ever with VRBO and we were very sad to leave! Beware of the Vacation Blues after leaving here! ##### Jennifer K. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Apr 3, 2018 #### Big Sky Adventure Our group of 5 travelers have skied at Big Sky annually for over 15 years. This is by far the best rental we have ever had. Not being slope side is a blessing! The pictures of this rental do not do it justice. The kitchen is superbly equipped, all bedrooms/bathrooms were great. Dealing with the owners was straight-forward and simple. Their visit during our stay was so kind! We had skiers and fishermen on this trip. The peace and beauty of this property is hard to translate until you experience the snow, the hot tub and the sound of the river. We prepared meals, were always able to get to the slopes before 9am. Free parking at Big Sky with a simple shuttle to the base access was perfect! Why pay the slope side rental premiums? We shopped at the grocery stores in the village, prepared the majority of our meals in the exceptionally equipped kitchen and ventured out for dinner in the valley. Fantastic, beautiful,affordable, and simple. We won't be staying slope side ever again! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David & Tammy M. Mar 27, 2017 #### Beautiful Cabin by the Gallatin River We thoroughly enjoyed our week at the O'Neil Guesthouse. The sound of the Gallatin River from the spacious back deck was so peaceful. The hot tub, which is amazingly placed on the back of the deck beside the river, was the very nicest hot tub in the very nicest location that I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. The bedding in the many bedrooms was amazing. The sheets were so soft and the pillows and bedding was beyond luxurious. The kids had a great time, with plenty of games to keep them occupied. We were fortunate to still have a little snow left when we got there so they got to play outside and build a snowman. This house is spacious! The downstairs bunk room would be amazing to house plenty of kids. This house would definitely be great for a multi-family vacation, however our family of 4 fit in it just fine. We loved being able to stay the perfect distance from town. Not too busy - not too remote. There are restaurants right down the road too, which was great when we didn't feel like eating in. When you stay at the O'Neil Guesthouse (and you should), you will notice that the owners have taken the time and care to conveniently label and provide much needed information on anything you may have a question about. You can tell the property has been meticulously maintained and is very clean. The O'Neils live just a few steps away and are very helpful and welcoming but are also non-intrusive and you will quickly feel that you staying in a remote cabin in the woods, with every convience you could want or need to make your stay comfortable. ##### David & Tammy M.

Aug 19, 2014 #### Review of Oneill guest house on the Gallatin River From Linda Raulston: Larry and I have been lucky enough to have been guests at the Oneill Guest house for 15 years.The fact that we have made it our August getaway for all these years says it all. Carolyn and Terry always make us feel most welcome. They provide a wonderful and comfortable place for us to completely relax. It's like going home. As we arrive at the guesthouse nestled behind tall evergreens its charm greets us with colorful baskets of flowers hanging across the it's front. The house's amenities take care of all of our needs. We spend lots of time on the deck which overlooks the Gallatin River. The scenery is extraordinary with towering evergeens overhanging the river, and the bird life is unbelievable, and the soothing sound of the river is so hypnotic that it is hard to stay awake. Up and down the river people flyfish, and all we have to do is walk off the deck into our own private flyfishing haven. Nearby is the hot tub where we usually relax before bedtime and watching the sky ablaze with stars. The large grill has become a popular place for the guys to congregate as each offers suggestions on when the meat should be turned. The kitchen is fully stocked with all one needs to persue the art of cooking. The dining table where we have spent so many happy hours sharing delicious meals and lots of tall tales accomodates ten. The beds are very comfortable and well-dressed. Carolyn and Terry attend to everything one might need. They go so far as to spend nights in the guest house to check out everything one might need from a guests perspective. They can recommend what sights around the area are a must to see. You won't believe how wonderful your trip will be. The Oneills are the best hosts we've ever encountered. You will fall in love with them. They are family.
