We enjoyed our stay in Big Sky. Very large condo with tons of space and great views. Everything was as advertised. Located a very short drive to the Big Sky Resort. We didn’t have any issues during the stay. There was even a friendly little fox who would hang out outside the window. Would definitely stay here again.

Would’ve been useful to have had shuttle bus info. Once we understood the system, found it to be a real plus. The stop is right out the door.

This was a great location at great value compared to similarly located condos. I injured my knee and enjoyed the view of Lone Peak from my “office”. The recliners were a godsend. The property manager was quick to respond to
my request for a humidifier. I had read about the beds and pillows and bought a mattress topper and a pillow in Bozeman which fixed the problem (I did leave them for others benefit and appreciate the additions that other renters left behind). I agree that the couches need replaced, esp the pull out bed. BUT, again, for the price this place was perfect and we would stay again. Thank you for sharing your condo with us. Of note (out of the owners control) the bus did not run on a real schedule. I recommend going out on the hour and know that they will show up sometime in the next 25 minutes. Since it only comes once an hour, you don’t want to miss it!

Property is outdated. The bathrooms, floors, linens, blankets could have been cleaner. Door key lock box is broken. We had to use a stick to open it. A bar stool is broken. My husband fixed the bathroom sink drain we put into maintenance. Overall it was fine since we did not stay long in the condo.

All in all it was a decent place to stay. The plus was the view from the deck and the wood burning fireplace with wood included which is located in the underground parking. The ski shuttle stops at the underground parking garage door just a few steps from the condo door. The kitchen is well equipped, I did have to buy a vegetable peeler and a pizza pan and I did leave those there. The furniture is very shabby and dirty and I really didn't like sitting on the sofas and chairs especially with all the hysteria about Corona virus it makes you wonder who was here before you and how well was the place cleaned including all soft furniture and hard surfaces. There is only ONE TV in the entire place and it is located in the darkest part of the condo with no view of the mountain. So if you have kids or others with you you all have to watch the same thing in a cramped area with a small sofa to sit on. This was a real big negative for me. The bed in the smaller bedroom is very hard and not at all comfortable, same complaint I saw someone else had and they complained about pillows which I think were replaced but they are cheap and not very comfortable, I had a lot of restless nights. The carpet is dirty and worn, hair on the bathroom floor, tub not cleaned very well and the most disappointing, the windows to look out on the beautiful view are filthy, they have not been cleaned for a long time. Someone has even drawn an obscene picture on one of the windows. All the units in this building have hot tubs inside but this unit has theirs closed. There is no BBQ grill which would have been nice to sit on the deck and cook. This unit is also next to the "managers unit" we had the door open when we first got there to air out the smoke from the oven because it wasn't cleaned well and he came over and lied to us that the rule was quiet time at 8pm. The common areas like the garage and the entrance ways are filthy. The HOA is not maintaining this property properly. Sooo, it was an okay place but the owners have obviously gone into withdrawal mode in terms of $$$ and not keep their investment up to standards you would expect for the money paid.

laundry was not in the condo and there was no place to put ski equipment consistent with the directive to "put it in the old hot tub room" which was locked (and we were specifically warned not to put the stuff in the living areas). As others noted, the kitchen is very minimally equipped.
Even though we had no car, transportation was a breeze--the folks at Stay Montana were fantastic.

This property is very close to Mountain Village and offers shuttle on reservation. We enjoyed it. Would have appreciated a hottub or jacuzzi. Would stay there again

Our 2nd Stay in Big Sky
Nice
Was on ground level and quickly accessible to outdoor parking area for unloading and loading
Spacious and comfortable living areas
two full bathrooms that were good.
Cramped but adequate full kitchen.
No in unit washer&dryer
small beds that are not comfortable
Could use comfortable at least queen sized beds
pillows are substandard quality. need to bring our own.
Very nice view out the south facing (back) windows and deck
Would stay again but would be aware of above issues and prepare accordingly.

Beautiful view Good stay
We stayed almost a week here, with two adults and one teenager. This is a beautiful location up in the Big Sky Resort. The condo worked good for us, with plenty of space and the kitchen to cook meals in. It’s about an hour drive to West Yellowstone and we spent three days at the park with this condo as our base. It was a bit closer to Bozeman where we spent a day as well as going to the Lewis and Clark caverns. The weather was cool with the higher elevation. It was a great cozy place to rest and reset for the next day. Also was very easy to find and close to a small grocery store and restaurants.
4.5
OK at Best
This condominium has a lot of potential. The setting is fantastic. Views are wonderful. It needs to be cleaned thoroughly. It looked liked it had not been dusted or vacuumed. There was hair in the bathrooms. A couple of minor items had been broken and not repaired. We had a great stay. The Big Sky area is fantastic, particularly if you are a skier. We will be back to Big Sky, not so sure we will be back to this unit.

Fireplace, Kitchen and Space
The property is very large with a tv room and additional living room with fireplace to socialize. The master bedroom includes a sitting room and walk in closet. The kitchen includes plenty of dishes, glasses and cookware to accommodate your needs. The shuttle runs on a limited schedule to this condo property, check out the shuttle schedule on www.skylinebus.com . We used the shuttle a few mornings for 1st lifts, but then started driving back and forth. There is free parking at the mountain with shuttle or front row lot parking for $30 day. The village is convenient for restaurant/bars to enjoy. Overall a nice stay.
4.5
Good location and very convenient ski shuttle bus.
Very spacious condo in need of some modern updates but a great value and super convenient shuttle ski bus to the mountain. Seriously doesn’t get more convenient for bus service. The parking garage was very convenient and provided easy access to the condo. We’ve skiied a lot of places and this unit is pretty good overall. Recommended for sure.

Magnificent Mountain = Superb Skycrest
THE best place to stay at Big Sky! Great views of the Peak from every window, a well appointed apartment (fridge/oven etc) with lots of family touches in decor, paintings, books etc and the open fire place added the magical romantic touch to a skiing holiday that included two days of sunshine and two foot of snow! We’ll be back to Montana & Skycrest 1707 was the best!

Beautiful property in great location at Big Sky
We stayed in this condo for a week and loved it! It had a nice, homey feel, was very spacious, and while we were only two, it could easily accommodate a small family. It was great to be able to park in a heated garage, and also loved having firewood in the garage to take up to the condo. There is a shuttle to both Big Sky and Madison base, but parking was so easy at both that we tended to drive (5' Big Sky, 10' Madison Base) for convenience. The condo it's about 15' from a decent grocery store, although there is a small one at the base of Big Sky. The bed was decent, and the kitchen was well-stocked with utensils, glasses, pans, etc. Our only issue was with the stove. It took a very long time to heat up, and then was barely hot enough to fry potatoes, let alone bring anything to a boil. When I contacted David at Stay Montana, he brought us a hot plate to use for the reminder of our stay. That worked MUCH better than the stove, and David promised he'd have the stove checked before the next guests arrived. So, despite that glitch, I would highly recommend this condo and would happily stay there again.

Wonderful condo
The condo was roomy, clean, and neat. A shuttle came almost to the door. Beds were comfortable. We were very happy with our experience here. The kitchen was well-equipped and stocked with the essentials. Just wish there had been a washer/dryer.

Nice condo at a reasonable price
We stayed at the condo near the end of the ski season. While we were there the resort received 19 inches of snow and it was nice to have covered parking in the garage under the condo. We assumed that it was OK to park in the garage although the welcome email only mentioned parking in front of the condo and the book for renters in the condo mentioned nothing about the garage. Two other features of the condo that we enjoyed were the wood burning fireplace and the shuttle from the condo to the base of the ski slope. Although there was not a schedule for the shuttle in the condo, the management company was able to provide us with the schedule.
4.5
Good condo big quiet and clean
In general good
A few issues TV was ratings locked in bedroom so I couldn’t even watch msnbc or some discovery channel shows in that room had to go to living room
I was one person and charge $200 for cleaning then they want you to do a lot of work at departure
Take garbage out, strip beds etc
What do they do for the $200 guarantee it took them less than 20 minutes to clean so $10 a minute to clean and you are supposed to do most of the work
Just raise the night rate so you don’t know you are charged so much for cleaning
That said
Very nice condo big comfortable quiet and clean
Reasonable value

Holidays in Big Sky
Great location and free local bus stops just outside building twice per hour - easy mountain ski access! View of Lone Peak is spectacular and New Year's fireworks seemed like they were just outside our window! Accommodations are nice and has everything you need for a ski vacation. Underground, heated parking is a big asset as is elevator from garage to just a few steps outside unit door - very civilized move in/out. Management company very responsive to requests.
Only negative is lack of TV - Direct TV did not even get major networks! Worst of all, we had to watch New Year's Day football on our phones! We even tried streaming online and connecting laptop to TV, but internet service was so slow the feed was frozen more than it was running - impossible to watch anything that way, especially live sports. Internet speed more than adequate for other on-line activities.
Bottom line - this is a great unit as long as TV is not important during your stay.
