Great property in a fantastic location

We enjoyed our stay and it was very comfortable for 5 adults. The property was exactly as described and provided us with easy access to shopping, dining, and Big Sky for skiing. The wildlife was abundant and we even had an up-close visit from a fox one evening.

Lovely town home for winter fun

We stayed here with my adult children and used the townhome as a launching pad for skiing and exploration of Yellowstone in winter. It is cozy and has a bathroom off each bedroom which is nice for getting ready. Beautiful place. Would return.

The 3rd bedroom did not have a closet. That was very inconvenient since we brought a lot of clothes on hangers! The lighting in the 2 upstairs bathrooms was less than adequate! In fact, the entire home had bad lighting. Some of the dishes were not adequately clean. We could have used more towels. One hand towel and 1 washcloth in each bath was not adequate! Overall, we were a bit disappointed!

Big Sky Basecamp

This home is absolutely spectacular and served as a comforting end to our very busy days hiking several trails in the area. Bedrooms were very cozy . The whole house is beautifully furnished and felt like home away from home. Though an issue with the water heater meant no hot water for day 1, the folks in charge responded immediately and the issue was resolved quickly. Would definitely stay here again.

New Clean Condo in Big Sky

This is a new condo not too far from downtown Big Sky and about a 15 minute drive (at most) to the ski slopes. It's clean with a modern style. It's ideal for 3 couples or a small family. It has every amenity you could need. It's also a short walk to the local bus stop, if you prefer not to drive. The property managers were helpful and ready. It is always nice to stay in a new place!

Description doesn't do this property justice!

We stayed at the property in February while in MT for a ski vacation at Big Sky. Great location with short drive to the mountain & access to village. The description was accurate, but didn't really relay how spacious and nicely appointed it was. Plenty of linens, great pillows and bedding. We cooked several nights and found everything we needed in the kitchen, plenty of space for everyone together in common areas, and roomy bedrooms if someone wanted some space. With each bedroom having their own bathroom, it was really easy to manage having multiple families together. Loved this and definitely recommend -- really easy to work with and very responsive to questions before and during booking. Thanks again for a great stay!

Family getaway

Rented for our family of five to enjoy a ski trip together. Appears new, represented well in description and pictures in listing, well equipped. About a 15 minute drive to the slopes. Heated garage was appreciated but unfortunately could not fit the Surburban we had rented because a refrigerator limited the length of vehicle that could be accommodated. Only one parking space in the driveway, so two long vehicles could not have been parked in the entire area.

Overall Satisfied, but with One Major and a Few Minor Issues

Overall, we liked the unit and would probably stay at Firelight Cottages again. The condo was very clean and well appointed, the kitchen big and airy, and the beds/bedrooms spacious, well-lit and comfortable. The bathrooms were clean and modern (the two sinks in the master were welcome). We loved seeing the lone moose (or elk) wandering around the compound. That’s not something we tend to experience in New York City. We did have a few issues, mostly minor, detailed below: Hot water was a big issue. Our unit is a 3BR, which would mean 6 people, although we only had two couples (4 people). Initially, the first person in each bath got a hot shower, then the next a cool, tepid one. Not fun after a day of skiing. We called maintenance and the situation was marginally improved but was not completely fixed. After the maintenance visit, the second person to shower in each bath had to be quick as the hot water would run out. It’s hard to imagine this being acceptable with a full house of six people. This is minor, but the coffee filters provided did not match the actual coffee maker. The filters in the unit were the Mr. Coffee type whereas the maker itself takes the triangular #4 filters. Again minor, but more cleaning supplies in the kitchen would be nice. We cleaned the stove, counters, etc after every meal but the products provided were nearly empty. A broiler pan is needed in the kitchen. We couldn’t use the outdoor grill (see below) so broiling in the oven would have been the next best option. Wood is provided for the fireplace, but no kindling. Getting and keeping a fire going without some small pieces of dry wood was a challenge. The patio was not clear of ice. There was a shovel in the garage, but nothing to break up the ice. Also – and more importantly – the ice/snow on the roof overhanging the grill on the patio looked dangerous. We didn’t use the grill because of this as the possibility of a large amount of falling ice and snow didn’t seem worth the risk (I understand shoveling roofs is a hassle, but breaking up the ice dam over the grill would probably solve the problem).

Nice place.

Perfect for the 3 Brothers. Each got a big bed and our own bathrooms. At our age, sharing isn't an option. To improve; Soap needs to be bigger. Toilet paper should "real", tissues, too. Otherwise, nearly perfect. The pluses; Very comfortable. Very complete - everything we needed. Lots of firewood. Thanks for a great memory! Tom, Doug & Ron
