SKI ACCESS
Located directly below the White Otter skier bridge, this property uses Manitou Loop Road and groomed access trails to access the White Otter lift. Anticipated opening date for White Otter lift is mid December, but the lift may open earlier in the season depending on snow conditions. The lift typically closes in mid April, prior to resort closing. The cabin is not ski-in/out when White Otter Lift is not running. Please inquire for details.

Ski Out:
Put skis on in driveway. Ski around the corner onto Oglala Road to the groomed access trail to the right by cabin 4B, or veer left and ski the road to the end of the cul du sac. Follow this trail along the White Otter chair lift to the bottom to load the lift. There are a few sections of flat that may require poling or skating.
Note: In periods of melting it may be necessary to walk a short distance.
(Green access)

Ski In:
Follow Lower Morningstar to SECOND set of Powder Ridge signs on the left. Follow the signs towards the White Otter skier bridge. Cross over the bridge and immediately turn left on the groomed access and ski the road to the front door of the cabin. (Green access)

Beautiful Big Sky mountain community home

Property worked great for my family of 11 plus baby. Everything worked great and the house is outfitted with virtually everything one would want (in most cases multiple items of pots, dish’s, etc). One maintenance item was reported (part of from porch step broke off) and it was immediately addressed. Overall a wonderful experience for all.

Kenny Chesney Concert

Had a great trip with family and friends. There is so much to do in Big Sky. This property is fairly central to most things, only a 10 minute drive down the mountain to Town Center. The resort has plenty of activities also if you don’t want to do too much driving. The photos are slightly deceiving as this property is in a community with several houses very close to one another. Very little privacy. And the family room/kitchen area was small for our party of 8 adults. There is a 1st floor game type area which is great for kids but we visited in Summer and spent most of the time outside on the deck. Management company was great and addressed issues right away.

Beautiful house in a great location!!

We had a few friends and family at this house. It's a great house in a beautiful and convenient location with amazing views. The White Otter Lift wasn't running, so we couldn't ski out - but we did ski in. The property manager is very easy to work with - the dishwasher stopped working while we were there and they had a repair person out to fix it within an hour. They were very professional and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

Big Sky Stay

Overall, the house was extremely beautiful and clean. The week that we were there, Big Sky didnt have great snow, so the ski in/ski out was not that easy. Other than that, the house was great and a close ~5 minute drive to the downtown area. The house was beautiful, and the management was very responsive and easy to work with. I would recommend. Thank you!

Greater Visit

The view and location was great. The property need little love, bottom floor carpet was wet, glass shower doors stick so it made it hard to go in and out of the shower. The faucet on the main floor bathroom was loose. Then the water heater on the last day went out.

Perfect home in Big Sky

Every aspect of this rental was fantastic. The management company was extremely communicative. The location was excellent. The home itself was clean and felt “homey.” We were able to ski down the street to the White Otter lift and ski back to the house from the White Otter access bridge without any problems. However, if there was less snow this would have required a pretty lengthy walk both out and back in. The bedrooms and bathrooms were all spacious and comfortable. The owners have provided several additional conveniences (eg a dryer in the garage with attachments for 8 pairs of boots, a drying cabinet in the basement for clothing, and enough basic supplies to cover the week for laundry, dishwashing, and firestarting). We are already talking about returning for our annual ski trip next year.

Great Big Sky Cabin

Great house with accurate listing. Only issue was it has the worst snow shovel ever, broken and there was 40 inches snow while we were there which made digging out impossible. Would recommend getting a new shovel. We had some issues with access codes but the management company always answered and took care of it right away. Beautiful property. Pictures are accurate. Ski in ski out will require some traversing and was very difficult for boarders but skiers had no issue. Would definitely stay again. Kitchen is beautiful and has more dishes and silverware than you’d ever need. Great place.

Excellent ski-in/out house!

Great property in a great location at Big Sky ski resort. Our group of 16 had a phenomenal time, and everyone had plenty of room to sleep, which was great. The skiing in and out of the property is a huge boost as well. Hot tub is great, and living room / kitchen area were perfect for us to watch the super bowl.

Good ski access, perfect house

Well-appointed house, enough space for our group of 13. Ski access was an A-; a little more traversing on level ground than I expected, but still way more convenient than parking at the base and taking a shuttle to the main area. Overall excellent experience.

Perfect place for a large group

We loved our stay and Manitou 13 as it was the perfect space for a large group and was easy to access. My only advice for people that have a group of our size is to be sure that you have more than one vehicle if you want to go to the mountain village. It is walkable, but not an easy walk, and there really aren't a lot of options for shuttles or Ubers. If you are on skis it is very convenient to ski in/ski out. The cabin itself was really nice and in excellent condition.

Great House for Groups!

My husband and I stayed here for a week with 4 other couples. The house was totally comfortable for a group of 10 adults. I imagine it would be great for large families or even two families with kids. The open kitchen, dining and living room made it easy to spend time together without being on top of each other. And the washer/dryer made packing for our trip much easier since we knew we could do laundry while we were away. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals at the house for ten people, and we loved having access to a grill. The morning views of the surrounding mountains from the wrap around deck were fantastic and a welcome change from the NYC skyline. And relaxing in the hot tub after skiing was the perfect way to end the day. It was super easy to get to the White Otter lift to start the day. Getting back to the house was a little tricky, but only because the secondary trails weren't marked quite as obviously. After figuring it out the first day it wasn't an issue at all. We would definitely consider staying here again on our next trip to Big Sky.

Hot water

For the most part, the house was definitely nice. It came pretty stocked with towels, plates and cups, and cookware. Bed sizes and quality were nice. Nice view. In general, it appeared very clean. The showers had shampoo and soap dispensers, but they were empty (or at least those in my shower were – I didn’t check the other showers). Not a huge deal. The ski-in ski-out is probably about as advertised – possible, but not ideal. It’s enough out of the way that we ended up eating lunch at the resort restaurants rather than making the 45 minute round-trip to the house and back. But you won’t need your car to get to the resort which, for us, was the main benefit. We had the hot water heater go out on night 1 (probably a fluke). Then, due to some error where the maintenance man went to the wrong cabin (also probably a fluke, but annoying nonetheless), it wasn’t fixed for about 24 hours. And then it didn’t recover for another 4 hours or so b/c there were 16 people trying to shower. That was annoying, but the main problem was the undersized hot water heater. This place sleeps 16, there are 4 showers (really 5 because one has two faucets so 2 people can shower at the same time) and the hot water heater looked to be 80 gallons (assuming there wasn’t a second heater that we couldn’t see). 80 gallons is standard for a house of 4-5 people and 2 showers. Since we were all skiing (and thus needing to shower in the same afternoon/evening timeframe), we ran out of hot water every single day. I had one single hot shower in the 4 days I was there. Not so awesome. Sure we could have spaced out our 16 showers over ~6 hours so that the heater can recover but should we need to do that when we’re paying this much per night for a house? My recommendation to management is to spend the extra couple hundred dollars (a fraction of a single night’s stay) to upgrade this system. Currently, it’s a million-dollar house with a huge [and avoidable] flaw. There was an outdoor fire-pit on the deck that we wanted to take advantage of (we could see our neighbors enjoying theirs) but were not able to. The fire-pit was placed under a roof-line, was covered with a tarp, then [predictably] the roof snow fell onto the tarp and froze. It hadn’t snowed for 2 weeks before our trip so this was an old event and should have been taken care of before we arrived. We tried to free the tarp, but with hundreds of pounds of snow/ice on top, we weren’t successful.

Wonderful slope side cabin

This cabin is outstanding. Everything is top of the line and meticulously maintained. We couldn't have expected anything better than what we received. The convenience of being able to ski on and ski off is priceless.
