WINTER SAVINGS: Book 6 nights, get 7th FREE! We are fully booked through March, but April is Big Sky's best snow month, and this season's last day is April 28. Why settle for a view of the neighbors, when you can have a sage meadow and Mt. Wilson right out your back door (and a hot tub too)! Our luxurious Big Sky "Hiking Hut" is a fully-furnished 3 bedroom, 3 bath, 1844 sq. ft. townhome style chalet just a pleasant walk from Town Center, with everything your family needs for a Montana vacation, combining a far away feeling with close-to-everything convenience. Only an hour from Yellowstone, but just a short walkto the amenities of Big Sky Town Center, and a ten minute shuttle to the "Biggest Skiing in America" at Big Sky Resort. Winter Savings = April reservations get the 7th night FREE*!

We bought off the mountain, in the valley, simply because there is so much more to do here besides ski, starting with the most beautiful short hike in Montana (plus ice climbing in the winter): the Ousel Falls Trail, just a few blocks up the road. Restaurants, shopping, and the Farmers Market are only a 10 minute walk away, or a short shuttle to Big Sky base area and THE BIGGEST SKIING IN AMERICA, or a little further to Yellowstone National Park. Our sage meadow right off the back deck and hot tub smells so good, and hosts everything from bluebirds to moose throughout the season.

This location is perfect for a multi-purposed outdoorsy family--we rented in Big Sky for years, and chose Firelight Meadows for its year 'round convenience to everything that's special about the area. We're less than a mile from Town Center with its shopping, restaurants, and services an easy walk away, or ski or hike out our back door through a beautiful sage meadow. Watch the alpenglow on one of the Spanish Peak range's landmark peaks, Mt. Wilson, as you plan your excursion to Yellowstone Park, one hour south.

Summer time fun starts in May & June, with whitewater adventure and Yellowstone Park wildlife only an hour away at the West Yellowstone entrance. Fantastic "Blue Ribbon" fishing is nearby on the Gallatin, Madison, and Yellowstone Rivers. We have many area maps and guides in our reference center. You'll love Big Sky instead of one of the touristy Park gateways--we are quiet and uncrowded in comparison, with quality restaurants, a Farmer's Market Wednesday evenings, and free "Music in the Mountains" concerts Thursday nights.

The beauty and adventure of Big Sky awaits you. We guarantee you'll love Big Sky and our Ousel Falls Hideaway.

Big Sky Resort skiing is truly "the biggest in America," with 5800 acres, 4100 vertical feet, and terrain for every skill level. Lift lines are non-existent. Overheard as I schussed up to Ramcharger lift one winter, "I'm taking a picture of this for my buddy skiing in Colorado, he's been in line for 30 minutes!" Children and beginners have two "shuffle up" carpet lifts and their own slow chair. Intermediates have perhaps the best l-o-o-o-n-n-g blues in the Western Hemisphere, with superb daily grooming. And Experts, let me tell you, you won't be able to ski all the EPIC steep terrain at Big Sky if you're only here a week. Oops, I almost forgot the TREES--there's glades for everybody, moderate and cleared for intermediates, steep and deep for the rest of us, and a bunch of runs where you can ski expert left, intermediate right, and meet at the bottom for the lift ride back up. There really are options for everybody at Big Sky, including over 80 miles of groomed cross-country skiing at Lone Mountain Nordic Resort, linked to the trail in the valley, just a block away from us. There are four new lifts on the mountain: North America's first "8 Pack" heated bubble for Andesite Mountain, plus Challenger, the experts only lift serving the ridge between Big Sky and Moonlight, has been replaced and updated, Shedhorn on the south side of Lone Mountain got one of the old high-speed quads, all joining the new high-speed, heated & bubbled 6-pack replacing the old triple serving the bowl (and the Tram). THE TRAM! It will be new and larger for winter '23/24--see Big Sky Resort's Facebook page or Instagram for construction progress.
