We enjoyed our stay here. Kitchen has everything we needed and then some. Hot tub was nice in the evening when temps cooled down.
FYI there is no air conditioning which I didn’t know (It was 80s when we visited). We made do with following the owners advice and fans provided by the house.

We had a fantastic vacation. This was our first visit to Big Sky and my husband said he thinks it was the best ski vacation ever. The house was beautiful, spacious, and included all the necessities from toiletries to kitchenware including spices and 2 coffee makers! We loved the private hot tub and used it every afternoon after skiing. It is a true ski in/out, however when we return, we might look for a house that takes less trail traversing. It was tough for our boarders. Despite that, I would rate this 5 out of 5!
Thank you!

Every year my husbands cousins and their spouses take a trip to a place none of us have ever been. This year we selected Big Sky. Out of all of the homes on VRBO, the Silver Star Chalet checked all of the boxes and we know now that we made the right selection. This high end home is in a stunning location with breathtaking views. The home was so clean with plenty of amenities. We love that every room has a bathroom. Perfect size for 6 people! Chris and Acura Samuels were wonderful to deal with and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. Thank you for that and thank you to Big Sky for giving us a lifetime of memories!

Stayed here for a week over spring break with my wife, three kids (ages 4, 6, and 9), and my parents. Cabin was absolutely perfect. Ski in/out was awesome. Hot tub was perfect. Nothing but great things to say. Definitely will return again!

We had a wonderful stay at the Silver Star Chalet. The house is well appointed and rooms are large and comfortable. The kitchen, bathrooms and hot tub were sparkling clean. This house fit our family perfectly. We loved the ability to ski in/out, although some pushing involved. The week we were there was snowy and beautiful. Only issue was with the fireplace. We had trouble keeping the fire lit and smoke entered the house. We would definitely stay there again.

New Year family gathering. Everyone had a comfortable bedroom and private bathroom. Nice kitchen and family room. Super easy location both for clip-on & go skiing and for driving to local shops/restaurants. Nice view from the [very clean] hot tub.
Couple of suggestions from the family - considering the pricing some nicer towels and some bathrobes would have been appreciated. Some of the kitchen items could use an upgrade.
Overall - a really nice on-mountain house. We would rent again.

This was our first time taking a vacation in this area and it was 10/10! This chalet is so cozy, roomy and has the most beautiful views. Our 7 year old and 14 year old slept upstairs in the loft which they had made into their own little space. They could chill out and watch tv up there and use their own bathroom. My husband and I and my parents had plenty of room too. We all had plenty of space with the extra bathrooms. The fireplace and hot tub was used almost every night. Perfect stay!!! Highly recommend!

We rent houses often and this one was one of the best. Great main floor. We were two families with kids of all ages and there was plenty of room to spread out or spend time together. Kitchen had very modern appliances and was well stocked. We would highly recommend this rental.

The perfect vacation spot
We have a large family so we needed a lot of room and this place fit the bill ! Everything was just as described and more. Absolutely some of the greatest views we've ever had from a vacation home . Very close to Big Sky resort which had plenty to eat and plenty to do. Big Sky was perfect -not too busy or overcrowded but had everything you needed. Some in our group went into Yellowstone several times, but others enjoyed the peaceful Moonlight Basin neighborhood so much they hardly left Big Sky. We hiked some local trails, rented bikes, pedal boats, and rode the scenic chair lift many times. We enjoyed great local dining including street tacos , Chinese food, steak, pizza, and even freshly made donuts all within 10 minutes of this lovely home. When we wanted to stay in- the house was stocked with everything we needed to share a delightful meal together. We hope to return here for a winter vacation!!

Absolute great house. Looking forward to returning in the winter to sky.

We had a great time! House was adequately stocked! View is AMAZING! We picked a central place to go to several locations in Montana and Wyoming. An hour from West Yellowstone. We spent three days visiting Yellowstone. Some fished more. Town Center was also great. Groceries are expensive so plan for that expense. It was a great value overall. No AC. Fans were provided. I didn’t realize AC is not standard for any house in the area. We were hot, but AC is not usually needed. Comfortable over all. Silver Star met or exceeded our expectations.

12 Silver Star Chalet was nothing short of perfect! Heated floors, well-stocked kitchen that opens up into a cozy living room, ample firewood, ski-in/out, hot tub overlooking the mountain...you name it, this place has it! Property managers were very responsive and helpful!
Towels, toiletries and kitchen essentials all provided including spices, oil, pots, pans, aluminum foil, dishwasher detergent, laundry pods, etc...and even 3 rolls of paper towels. Highly recommend this property and hope to visit Big Sky during the summer!

Family Vacation
We had a great visit and the house was just as advertised. We are a family of 7 and the space was perfect for us. It was well stocked and we felt like we are at home...we especially appreciated the humidifiers. The only negative comment i have is that it is time to get a new master bed.

Our family rented this lovely home for a change of scenery and to disconnect from technology and be with one another. There is no way one can expect the breathtaking views from Big Sky until they stand under the real big sky.... we were dazzled and amazed our entire visit, and were able to enjoy the area, even with social distancing protocols. All of our adventures were fueled by the comforts of our “home away from home.” Beautiful house, thoughtfully appointed, comfortable, well managed - a treat from start to finish. We would definitely return.

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was in a great location ski on/off.
Only negative thing I have to say would be the mattresses- they could use updating. They were thin and soft and overall uncomfortable. All other furnishings were great. Really would recommend this house.

Best ski-in ski-out property for families!
Our first experience at Big Sky was made perfect by this home. The house easily accommodated 3 families with children (6 adults and 4 kids). Adults in bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and kids sharing a large loft space that actually sleeps 5 easily. We spent 6 nights at this lovely home, skiing 4 days out of 5. The home is well equipped including appliances not typicallly available through a VRBO such as crock pot, blender, immersion blender, mixer, baking pans and mixing bowls. In addition, it is conveniently located to stop halfway through the day for lunch and apres ski.
The beds in all rooms were comfortable, and the in floor heating kept the temperature consistent for our stay. The house was very clean upon arrival. Laundry with detergent was also quite helpful and convenient!
One thing we really enjoyed in addition to the house was the Moonlight Lodge. We paid a fee of $100/day to have a guest pass, which is required for the duration of your stay not including check in or check out dates. With the guest pass, we had access to a charming Yurt at Ulery’s lake which has snow tubing, ice skating, fat tire bikes and XC skis at no extra charge. At the lodge there is a nice pool and spa which we enjoyed one night.
Chris and Acra are excellent hosts. We only had one issue during our stay which they remedied immediately upon a simple phone call.
Now for the skiing! The skiing on the Moonlight side was so good that we hardly went to Big Sky Mountain. The house is situated on a ski road that crosses bridges and takes some skating but not much. It may be difficult for snow boarders or younger kids, but our crew did not struggle with it. Chris and Acra left clear instructions on how to return to the house, which includes crossing one of the worlds longest ski bridges, a special experience for adults and kids alike.
Overall, we all agreed this place was phenomenal, would recommend it, and gladly rent again!

Perfect Location, House and Views
We started out with plans for a couples ski trip and this house was a perfect fit with a ski-in / ski-out location, great floor plan (every bedroom has its own private bath), excellent kitchen and amazing views. Our trip ended up being a "guys" ski-trip and the house ended up being perfect for that too. We had intended to take advantage of the many fine restaurants in town, but after coming right in off the slopes, starting a fire and using the well equipped kitchen, there was no reason to leave. Finish with a soak in the hot tub and watch the groomers go by 20ft from the house. Can't ask for much more!!
The property manager was very easy to work with and the house is equipped as every nice rental should be. Kitchen is well equipped, plenty of dry firewood in the garage, linens and toiletries, and even a communal spice cubbord (yes we paid-it forward and added to the collection). All of us would come back in a heart beat and my 22 year old son gave it a 9 out of 10 for a ski trip (he only gave Zermatt a 7).

A Beautiful Home in a Beautufil Location
This home worked perfectly for our August vacation. We had 2 families of 4 and there was plenty of room to spread out between the 3 levels. The management company was top notch from start to finish. Everything was new or well taken care of. The home was an easy hour drive to Yellowstone which was a fabulous day trip. The access to Moonlight Lodge was a big plus for us. We loved our time fishing, canoeing and paddle boarding on the lake. Our highlights were river rafting, horseback riding, zip lining and hiking BeeHive Basin. Yellowstone was awesome. We also loved dinner in town followed by the outdoor summer concert. Great Memories!

Perfect vacation Dream house that you can rent !!!
FANTASTIC experience!! Lovely home, great amenities, newer appliances, convenient to Big Sky Resort.
We had an absolutely wonderful time. The house was awesome. We stayed at this house for six days. The house was very clean, organized and well-maintained. I was very impressed by fully equipped kitchen with high end cookware, silverware and dinnerware. We always rent the vacation house during our every single family vacation, but this is the first house that I would like to visit again and again. Nice scenic drive to Yellowstone from this property that you can enjoy. Many activities available in nearby Big Sky Resort for young/teenager kids. My kids had a great time there.
The house has very nice breathtaking views. You can have perfect family vacation time with sweet memories by staying at this property!!
