About this house rental
Robins Nest is your Montana dream home. This private and spacious 4,500 sq ft cabin is tucked in the trees high atop the Moonlight slopes, a true ski-in/ski-out vacation rental in the heart of Big Sky! Clip into your bindings outside your heated ski room and you’re on your way!
The large open-plan living area boasts floor to ceiling windows that flood the room with both light and panoramic framed views of the Spanish Peaks. Whether you’re cozy in front of the woodfire soaking up the views or showing off your culinary skills in the gourmet kitchen, it’s a great communal gathering spot to relax, reconnect and create memories with your tribe that you’ll share forever. After a day of immersing yourself in Big Sky experiences (and playing a few rounds of poker in the games room), the 5 bedrooms provide a plush and comforting place to lay your head.
When it comes to outdoor living, Robin’s Nest sets a Big Sky standard! The expansive, private deck is another great spot to hang out, grill some steaks, soak in the hot tub and make more memories around the fire pit. Book today and start envisioning your next Big Sky vacation.
Robins Nest is perfectly situated between Moonlight Basin and Big Sky Mountain Village in the neighborhood of the Challenger lift. A convenient Big Sky location that is not only ski-in/ski-out to both resorts, it puts you minutes away from year-round activities, attractions and mountain events, and a great basecamp to explore Big Sky country and the scenic Yellowstone National Park. A luxurious Big Sky Mountain rental home.
This Big Sky Ski Accessible home is part of our Platinum Collection.

Family ski trip
Great house, well equipped...loved the fireplace...perfect for kids.
Location was great but the ski schools were far from the house... you had to take 2 lifts and ski all the way across the mountain....if late for ski school you got put in a stragglers class. Loved the boot room!!! Limited cell service which made it difficult to correspond with the management team. No outdoor fire pit that was in the pictures..would have been nice to have while the kids were in the hot tub. Overall we had a great time making memories for life! Thank you for sharing your home!

We had a great visit to Big Sky! Four couples were able to spread out among this beautiful home. Well appointed kitchen and bedrooms. It was a little far from trailheads and restaurants. It would be great during snow season, however.

The property was great. Perfect for our family. The downbstairs was perfect for the kids and the noise level tolerable for the adults. We would have liked some grass for the kids to be able to play outside. Thanks

While our overall stay at this property was fine, it was way over priced for what we received. The pictures were outdated online, so we paid a premium to have mostly a view of a roof. I've emailed the managers and I think they've updated the photos on the site now. Unfortunately, they refuse to give us a partial refund as requested, blaming our complaint upon smoke, which we didn't have until after about a week's stay there, which was not our complaint. Our complaint was that they had a picture online of no house in front, but beautiful mountains. When we arrived, we viewed mostly a large red roof. The house must have been built in years after, but they never updated the site with new pictures (false advertising). Everyone knows you pay a premium for views. I will be taking this up with VRBO and the Better Business Bureau if I have to, to get a refund. I've never had to do that in over 10 years of using VRBO...every other experience has been exceptional. This was not. The carpet and rugs are filthy and need to be replaced. We found a lego in the bed sheets, so I'm not sure they clean all the beds (our kids didn't bring any legos). The soaps were not filled in the showers. When the battery was low in the battery-operated door lock, nobody came to replace them, even though it was requested and they said they would, so we had to move them from a TV remote. Also, the door was left wide open when we arrived (which we notified them of right away) and another door was left completely unlocked. And the hot tub was not in great condition...the lift was broken, which we notified them of right away. Great house, needs updating. Management is poor. Disappointing.

beautiful living room and dining area. bedrooms were very comfortable with excellent space as were the bathrooms. the location is a little high up the mountain so it takes a bit to get to and from either town center or the base of the resort. the back deck is not quite as scenic as the pictures look, but the spa is high end and still a great place to relax.

We were 3 families with kids here for spring skiing. The house made it very convenient to come back for lunch. The ski-out access is via the back of the house. You can put your skis on right outside the mudroom and shuffle to the trail, or you can walk a few steps. In any case it is not strenuous at all. The ski-in can be a bit tricky, but luckily the property has a how-to video that you can watch. Both ski-in and ski-out are appropriate for little kids/beginners. Skiing in does require crossing a road, and by the end of out trip, the snow had melted on the road so we undid our skis there and walked a short distance. Again, nothing strenuous. The large mudroom and boot dryer were life-changing. Not sure we could ever do a ski vacation again without these amenities. House was clean and kitchen well stocked. A few maintenance issues were addressed by the property management company. The only hiccup we had was that the hot tub took closer to 2-3 days to warm up. Property management sent someone to look at it and they did not find anything wrong with it. Other than that, overall an excellent vacation. Would definitely come back!

Beautiful Ski-In//Ski-Out Home!
Robin’s Nest accommodated our ski group of 10 perfectly. The location was a huge hit and the access was perfect for any level of skier. A previous review of this property on March 2016 gave us exact directions how to ski-in/ski-out for the first day. It was so easy to ski back to the house for lunch everyday before heading out for the afternoon and ending the day in the hot tub. The views were amazing! It was a quick drive back to the base to pick up any apres skiiers in our group from Montana Jacks, Westward Social or Scissorbills.
Robin’s Nest had everything you could need in a luxury ski-in/ski-out home!

Robins Nest is a great house for large groups. The bedding arrangement works really well.
Be aware that all wheel drive is necessary to reach the property.

The Perfect Winter Wonderland Experience
The property was everything we had hoped it would be - location was beautiful, the property amenities were perfect for our girls weekend in the mountains, and the staff was very friendly when we called them to ask questions. We loved the accommodations and the kitchen was stocked very well! Only thing to note is that there is a little ditch toward the end of the driveway that our truck got stuck in when backing up (it was covered in snow so we didn't see it)...it may be helpful to mark that off, especially in the winter so it's clearly visible. But that did not ruin our experience - we loved every moment and would gladly return!

Everyone in our group of 11 had a great time!
True ski-in/ski-out, great amenities (large ski/boot room, boot warmer, kitchen, game room, TVs, etc.). Plenty of room for our 3-generation family of 11. Everyone talked about wanting to return next year!

Beautiful Mountain Home!
We rented this property in August 2016 as a home base for 13 while going back and forth to Yellowstone. It was a huge house with enough room for everyone and very tastefully decorated. The beds were comfy and the amenities were good enough. There was construction going on in the lot in front of us but they seemed very considerate of our coming and goings. The only thing I would point out is there were no staples in the kitchen (Flour, sugar etc) as in some of the VRBO rentals we have been to, all in all a great time!
