Nothing beats the tram ride up aside from the views from the top! And then the awesome ride down! Did multiple runs off of lone peak. Tram gets busy by 10am during the ski season.

I was w/ a group of late 20's people and we loved the interactive experience. Once you arrive you can borrow boots if needed. You can walk around and pet the dogs. Then a short lesson on dog sledding and you are off! You can drive your own sled or have a guide drive. Its easy I highly recommend it! Views are gorgeous. You stop for REALLY good cookies and hot chocolate, chat w/ your guide and you head back. you can help put the dogs away or just pay and head out. Very fun and a MUST DO!

Perfect afternoon hike for our family of two young boys (6 and 8). A few steep inclines, but mostly walkable. Stunning scenery the entire route. Take a picnic and enjoy the view!

This is the most beautiful church I have ever seen. Walking in the church and looking up at the altar takes your breath away! We went to the 8:00am mass on a Sunday. It was a very nice service. I was actually singing durning mass, and I never sing!! This church is that special. Must do if visiting Big Sky!!

The Big Sky Golf Course is currently closed for the winter season, but will reopen next spring 2018. Combine classic links-style golf and the stunning natural beauty of Big Sky country to witness a golf experience like no other: the award winning, scenic 18 hole par 72 golf course at Big Sky Resort. The Arnold Palmer course is 6,500 feet above sea level, offering longer drives and spectacular views.

Wonderful links course, you will play at least 7 strokes over your normal handicap becaus of the tall grasses, & gale force winds on the back nine! But, if you want an absolutely gorgeous course, challenging, long drives, tricky sand traps, and magnificent scenery..........this is...MoreThank you for taking the time to review our resort and give us a 5 star rating!

Yellowstone Club is a private resort located adjacent to Big Sky Resort. There is a variety of terrain from beginner to expert. The high-speed quad from the bottom has a dome to thwart adverse weather. All amenities are very posh with very attentive staff. The Warren Miller Lodge is HUGE! I have no idea what the buy-in is but if I have an extra $10 million sitting around, I would consider building a house in the area to take advantage of private skiing, golfing and all the other outdoor fun available in the mountains. An exotic spot that not too many will get the opportunity to visit. Not sure but I think Gates and Lemond both have places up there.

We missed the general open hours, but peered in the windows and walked the grounds. From the back, Lone Peak is framed in a picture window behind the altar. A very poignant stained glass window adorns the rear. 22 inch brass star mounted in memory of those who gave everything. Beautiful headstones remind us that different faiths fought for the freedoms we enjoy.

We'd been to Big Sky four winters for the skiing, and wanted to check it out in the summer, which by the way doesn't start till Fourth of July. We didn't know so went the second week in June to find it pretty empty and cool - 38 in the am. What we did find was this great Community Park on the east side of Meadow Village. If you have kids (ours are grown) this is a great spot with a lot of options including a Climbing Wall and a skate board area. We opted for the creekside hike (I forget the name, just follow the creek) which led to the Black Diamond Trail which headed up through the trees, criss-crossed the disc golf course, and provided great views of Lone Peak as well as the surrounding countryside. About 1.5 miles RT and 300' elevation - nice hike.
