This private, modern cabin sits on the green Swift Bear ski run for easy access to a wide variety of family-friendly terrain. Drive 5 minutes to après-ski at Big Sky Mountain Village and just 15 minutes to restaurants, shops and entertainment at Big Sky Town Center.

Custom-built with Durfold logs from British Columbia and hand-peeled red cedar, Moon Rider Ski Chalet will delight enthusiasts of mountain architecture and design with its use of natural materials. You’ll find skip-sawed fir wood floors in the living areas, slate tile and copper sinks in the bathrooms, and granite countertops throughout.

Ideal for families, the home boasts two living areas and kitchens, a loft office, multiple decks and a private hot tub.

The home centers on a two-story great room, styled in Southwestern décor, where a floor-to-ceiling window frames a dramatic view of Lone Peak. Two full-length leather sofas and cheerful red leather armchairs surround a unique coffee table in the style of a Native American drum. Gather for cozy evenings around the large-screen TV and wood-burning fireplace -- a custom soap-stone boulder piece by Tulikivi, crafted in Finland and rebuilt in the home.

With seamless flow between the living and dining areas, guests can interact with each other from the kitchen breakfast bar, dining table, or living room.

The country-style kitchen features custom hardwood cabinetry, granite countertops and four stools at the breakfast bar, ideal for morning coffee. Your inner chef will be inspired by the induction cooktop and Wolf oven. Enjoy sit-down meals at the round, 8-seat dining table with a view of the main-level deck.

Above the 2-car garage is a separate living area with a wrap-around sofa, large-screen TV, full kitchen, 2 bedrooms. and a 4-seat dining area. This area also has a laundry room and 2 bathrooms with walk-in showers. A small balcony offers views of Lone Peak while a large private deck overlooks the woodland grounds outside.

Five bedrooms, evenly spaced for privacy, comfortably accommodate up to 14 guests.

On the lower level, a covered patio features a private hot tub with glimpses of the mountains behind soaring evergreens.

This patio area also features the home’s ski access. Skiers of all abilities can enjoy access to the beginner-friendly Swift Bear run, which follows the Cascade chairlift. Advanced skiers can easily reach more varied terrain while kids and novices enjoy a host of wide, green and blue runs surrounding the home.

In the summer enjoy hiking and biking from the Beehive Basin Trailhead, a 6-minute drive, or head to Big Sky Town Center, a 15-minute drive, for restaurants, live music, golf, parks and more.
