Great condo and choice for our needs. If you’re staying late season, Bear Back Poma might not offer the ability for ski in/ski out. But a suitable alternative for the free parking lot/shuttle is an option. We enjoyed our stay and will likely book again for our next trip to Big Sky!

Well suited for our family of five (3 adult sons). We enjoyed staying in a one level condo and we able to cook breakfasts and dinners easily - lots of baking pans/sheets and pots. We did not have a car so we walked up the road to the resort or took the poma if we were skiing. We also used Big Sky connect one time when the road was too icy to walk. Great location!

Everything was great although;Shower curtain rod in master bathroom doesn’t stay in place. Seems like a spring is missing.Unless the poma lift is running it’s a bit of a walk to the ski hill. It would be nice to make that more obvious on the listing considering that you don’t see the exact location until after you’ve booked the place.Overall I’d stay there again.

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback. We are glad to hear that overall you had a great stay and would consider returning. We appreciate you letting us know about the shower curtain rod in the master bathroom. We will be sure to notify our local team so they can address the missing spring and get that fixed for future guests. Regarding the walk to the ski hill, thank you for your suggestion about making the distance and location clearer on the listing. We always want our guests to have all the information they need to make the best choice, and your input helps us improve. We look forward to hosting you again.

Great location

Excellent in just about every way. Awesome location for skiing. Plenty of space. Responsive management. One note to anyone staying here, the one car garage is tight. Most vehicles will fit, but it’s very tight. We had to move the garbage cans to on top of the wood pile in order for the vehicle to fit. Would definitely stay here again.

Darrell - We are so sorry for the inconvenience the TV caused you during your stay. Unfortunately the mountain location where Bighorn 3 is located is in a rural area that makes it difficult to get Direct TV/cable to make repairs quickly. We appreciate the feedback. The TV has been repaired and is now functioning. - Patrice, Resort Property Management

Nice place

Comfortable, plenty of room and the pictures were accurate. Kitchen was well-equipped, and it was great to have the entry to store our boots and gear and the garage to store skis. Communication with the management company was challenging - it took several days to get an answer to each of three messages (one the day before we arrived, one about 2 days in, and one a day or two before leaving), and by the time we got the answers, we’d already had to figure something out ourselves. Fairly minor issues though, so we still had a great ski trip, and we’d stay here again.

Great access to skiing

We had a great family trip. The property was in good condition. The three bedrooms housed our family of 6 well for the week. Garage is very small and barely fits the rental minivan we had. Anything larger has to park outside. The home seemed mildly dated in terms of kitchen and bathrooms but had most of what we needed to make some at home meals. I’d advise going to the grocery store in Bozeman before heading to the resort area if you’re cost conscious. Overall the house was a fair value for what got. However Big Sky resort skiing itself was very pricey compared to our past ski trips to Tahoe and Steamboat springs. But that’s nothing to do with this property.

Convenient vacation rental close to lift

The duplex house was extremely convenient. It is a 3 minute walk to a poma lift (although the poma hours were later than we had hoped). Also close to Mountain Village. The unit was a functional 2-BR with dining room, living room and kitchen with large island. Also has a 1 car garage.
