About this house rental
Privacy meets proximity with our “Little Big Sky" Guest home that's perfect for families and groups of many sizes. Our log-style home sits on 6 private riverfront acres with a raw stone outdoor fire pit, surrounded by 360-degree views of the Spanish Peak mountain range in the beautiful resort of Big Sky, Montana. Our 4BR, 3BA modernized cabin-style home sits just 75 ft above the Gallatin River (west fork) with a short hike down to the river's edge. The property offers a private, peaceful setting with an expansive yard and large bin packed with family-friendly games. Our home feels private, it sits in close proximity to Big Sky attractions and activities including horseback, skiing, fly fishing, hiking, golf, shopping, whitewater rafting and more.
The house is located just 2 miles from the main Town Center and the ski slopes are only an 8-mile drive. The west entrance to Yellowstone Park is only a 50-minute drive.
The property features river access, a floor-to-ceiling fireplace, a newly renovated fully-equipped kitchen, a 7-person hot tub, a vast open yard and acres of sage and pine trees. The cabin sleeps 8 adults (4 queen beds) and 2 children (1 stacked bunk bed).
This is a rare property in that it includes 1200 feet of private fishable river frontage on the West Fork of the Gallatin River. The property is only two miles from the fabled main Gallatin River (featured in 'A River Runs Through It') for fly fishing, hiking and Class 3 whitewater rafting. Activities include blue ribbon fly-fishing, whitewater rafting on the Gallatin, scenic gondola ride to top of Lone Peak, biking, hiking, nearby playgrounds and parks, float tubing the Madison River, golf, horseback and zip lining. Winter activities: skiing, snowshoeing, cross-country and sleigh rides. The new BASE Recreation Center is open year-round and offers day passes for workouts, rock wall climbing, yoga and spin classes and art activities, all just two miles from the cabin.
Our home is cozy, comfortable and well-equipped, and we have many families stay with us. We welcome you to join the many other guests that have made Little Big Sky their destination for vacations in all seasons.
Thank you!

The home is in the perfect location just outside Big Sky Town Center yet you feel like you are out in the wilderness. The property is beautiful with river access and open space and view of Lone Mountain. The house has everything including a brand new kitchen.

Paul is a great host with quick response to any questions I had. All the amenities you will ever need when your away from home, great location to town! Love the working hot tub. Woke up to make coffee, opened the shade above the kitchen sink to have a huge sweet mama moose and her baby eating the flowers in front of the porch (so cool!!), You don't see that in Florida EVER, so of course I was thrilled. Will defiantly stay again. Everyone in our party loved the home. Oh I forgot to mention the awesome creek on the property we hung out at. thank you again Paul

We truly enjoyed our time and stay at “Little Big Sky”! The cabin was well stocked and just as we had hoped it would be. Everything worked and looked great and the setting was very pretty. Paul, the owner was responsive and professional.
If your looking for a cabin by a creek in the mountains in lower Big Sky this place will not disappoint.

We could not have asked for a better host than Paul. He provided us with local recommendations and insight that you won’t find with other VRBOs. The personal touch was great!
The cabin has all the accommodations that two families of five would need. We fit comfortably and had great time off our devices speaking to each other face to face … refreshing!
We enjoyed skiing, dog sledding, and fly fishing. All world class.
Thanks Paul!
Hope to get back to Montana soon!

Location was fantastic with easy access to everything. Skiing , food , snowshoeing, snowmobiling. Snowball fights, hot tub. Paul was great and made sure we had a Christmas tree stand at the house. Fantastic host. Used his car on Turo as well which was a great feature.

Excellent stay and location. River access on property was amazing. Central location to Bozeman, Yellowstone, and the Tetons. Less than 20 minutes to Big Sky Lodge for skiing.
5.0 / 5.0
We had a great time at Paul's place. He's exceptional at communication and we felt very welcomed. Since we visited in August, we really appreciated staying so close to the Gallatin/191 as fishing, rafting and hiking were all so accessible. There was a lot of traffic heading up/down Lone Mountain, seemed to be due to all the building/construction going on - it was pretty pokey when we went to Beehive Basin (wonderful hike near the ski base). The house is very private, and my husband even caught a couple trout in the stream on the property! The kids enjoyed the games especially the pool/air hockey table, and large amount of books on hiking, fly fishing and Montana added to the adults' experience. Kitchen was well-stocked, making it easy to cook meals. Beds were comfortable and there were plentiful pillows and blankets. Thank you, Paul! We'd love to visit again.

Very nice property that is clean and had everything we needed for 8 adults over two weeks. Communication with Paul was excellent. The GMC vehicle option is nice. The only slight downside is that you cant really fish on the property, but there are tons of options very close. Groceries in Big Sky are pretty pricey. We stocked up in Bozeman which is only 45 minutes or so away. We had a wonderful trip and would highly reccomend The Little Big Sky.

Magic in the Mountains
Beautiful location just outside of Big Sky. Amazing view of the mountain from the hot tub. Easy walk to the Gallatin River with a bench overlooking it and the sound of rushing water over rocks. Very peaceful and great location for my young family.

Perfect to come back to from a day of skiing!
We celebrated a big birthday with two other couples over a 5-day stay and could not have loved Little Big Sky more. We made coffee and lunches, drove up the mountain, skied all day and got everyone back to the cabin, without complaint, for the hot tub and fireplace.
The location is perfect for access to all that Big Sky has to offer. We took advantage of all the cookware for some nights in and the dryer for all the hot tub towels! Each couple had their own bathroom and plenty of privacy.
We were all planning our family ski trips as we packed up. Lone Mountain is an awesome place to ski for all levels and Little Big Sky is an awesome cabin for any combination of family and friends intending to enjoy the winter wonderland!
Thank you, Paul, for making this a truly memorable birthday getaway.

Perfect family cabin
Extremely well appointed cabin. Amazing view of Lone Peak and surrounding mountains. Great location. Convenient to everything in Big Sky. Owner was very helpful and responsive. The only hiccup was that the VRBO price was inaccurate when we first booked but the owner made some concessions that we agreed to. No complaints on this cabin. Our whole family (10 of us) spent Christmas week here and had an amazing time.

End of Summer Grand Getaway!
This cabin is so lovely that we would stay there again. It is the perfect location to all recreational activities and convenient to shopping, restaurants, and groceries. Charming, comfortable, will all the amenities. The privacy is exceptional- evenings out in the hot tub with nothing around by the countryside and the lovely river flowing close by. Plenty of dry wood for the fireplace. This cabin made a wonderful vacation even more perfect!

Everything we needed
Home is better equipped than our personal home. Used the large gas grill several times and enjoyed outdoor dining on deck. Very large home that is very well decorated. Could really hold way more people than the 5 of us. Owner was quick to respond to all our question leading up to and during our stay. Got the bonus of seeing a couple bears drinking at the stream. We’d definitely stay here again.

Perfect Spot in Big Sky
We couldn’t have asked for better accommodations for our trip to Big Sky. The property feels secluded but it close to all the amenities - a short drive to the resort and within walking distance to the shops. We saw a mama moose and her baby resting by by water at the bottom of the hill one afternoon and a black bear right in the backyard one evening! Paul was an excellent host. Communication was easy and efficient. Five stars. We hope to be back!

Perfect home away from home!
This property was wonderful in every way! It was so clean! It fit our needs perfectly. The rooms were all big! The location was so good with the creek behind and the water sounds heard through the windows and outside. It was so pretty, too! The kitchen was very well stocked with supplies and pans. We did a lot of cooking or picking up food to eat at this beautiful cabin. So thankful for the large table! The washer and dryer were large capacity and conveniently located. The hot tub and deck were very nice! The air hockey/foozball table and the double hammock were a hit! We did not use the beautiful fireplace or the outdoor fire pit as there was a burn ban. But, we did use the nice sized grill after an ok from the Fire Dept for our last night there. Worked great and the guys cooked! The owner, Paul, was so nice and even gave us tips on where to shop and things to do during our stay. He answered any inquiries very promptly. We would definitely recommend Little Big Sky to anyone visiting the Yellowstone/Big Sky area!

Big Sky ski/snowboard trip
We absolutely loved our stay at Little Big Sky. We were in Big Sky for a ski/snowboard trip at Big Sky resort. The house was a short drive to the resort which was perfect. We absolutely loved coming back to the fireplace and hot tub each evening after a day on the slopes. Little Big Sky is located in a gorgeous/scenic spot and you feel like yoy have the world to yourself. The house has everything you need from a well stocked kitchen, plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms, washer/dryer, etc. Paul was so helpful and prompt with all communication. We were very happy with our stay and would definitely come back again.
