About Big Sky Vacation Rentals
Big Sky Vacation Rentals is a locally owned vacation rental and property management company in Big Sky, Montana. We represent about 125 of the finest luxury homes, cabins, and condos across Big Sky and Moonlight Basin — from ski-in/ski-out mountain lodges to family cabins in Powder Ridge and Meadow Village.
Our team is made up of year-round residents who live here, ski here, and know every property we manage. That local knowledge and hands-on approach is what sets us apart: we treat every guest's vacation as if it were our own, and we hold our homes and our service to an exceptional standard. Alongside bookings, we support guests with ski and snowboard rental delivery, local recommendations, shipping, and trip planning, and we help homeowners get the most out of their investment through full-service property management.
If you love the mountains, take pride in doing things right even when nobody is looking, and want to be part of a close-knit team in one of Montana's most beautiful places, we'd like to hear from you.
