The Cabin was amazing - better actually. We found it more spacious than we expected, with the loft greatly adding to the experience because our youngest could sit up there and watch TV or just hang out. The on the slopes location cannot be beat. Views from the hot tub - surreal. We even got the bons views of New Year's Eve fireworks that people were shooting off everywhere.

We checked out of the cabin and wanted to tell you we had a MAGICAL time. The ski in/ski out location is incredible and we got in 5 straight days of great skiing. We attended the Christmas Eve service at the Summit Hotel and then watched the torch ski and fireworks. Beautiful Christmas in Big Sky! Thank you for the welcome basket and responsiveness. We loved our stay.

First and most importantly, Stacy, Morgan and I had an absolutely fabulous time – we ve been staying in the Cowboy Heaven cabins for almost 10 years now, and Gold Rush was the most nicely appointed one yet; it s legit ski-in and out, the loft is fab, and it was basically near-perfect. When it comes time to book our slot for next year we ll for sure try to get this one again.

Excellent Property! There are so many things to love about this property. The views are spectacular, it's dark at night for fabulous star gazing, comfortable beds, spaces to spread out, lots of storage so your luggage can be hidden, great internet connectivity and every appliance we needed. The hosts are highly responsive. It is a 15-20 minute drive to most meal/grocery options, so you'll want to plan ahead. Beautiful daily drive to Yellowstone for our family. Highly recommend the premade meals at the Coun

Great summer vacation at Cowboy Heaven cabin! My wife, two older teen children and myself just came back from a vacation in Big Sky, Montana. First, Big Ski is beautiful with lots of restaurants and lots to do. We went to a great Farmer s Market downtown which was huge. Tons of food trucks and craft booths. The cabin is about 15 minutes from downtown, under and hour to Bozeman (also fun) and about an hour and fifteen minutes to Yellowstone so it is a great in between location. Incredible views of the mount

Our stay at the Gold Rush was exceptional. The views are simply stunning, we enjoyed dinner almost every evening just looking out over the basin and the mountains. The proximity to the resort and the very quaint town of Big Sky was great, took a little getting used to but we enjoyed our trip up the mountain every time…the views never get old. Kitchen was ideally appointed for cooking, great appliances and cookware (I am buying a set when I get home). We even befriended a local fox who stopped by every d

The skiing was amazing north summit snow fields & the headwaters bowl for me, Horseshoe & Ice house for the kids and Julie were our favorite runs. Big Sky is a magical place every where we looked was so beautiful. We were able to do some dog sledding and took a trip through the enchanted forest! The cabin for our family was just right!

We loved the cabin, it was easy to see that the cabin has been very well maintained and continually freshened and updated and that makes a big difference. We stayed in a CH cabin last year that we rented through the resort and your unit felt much less “tired”. Obviously, the investment in creating the loft for an additional BR was a huge add to this property, made it usable for our group of 6 allowing all to sleep in a real bed instead of a pull out. In no particular order of importance, some of the t

This note is WAY overdue, but that is only a reflection of how nuts life has been for the past couple of weeks following a spectacular visit to Big Sky. I did want to reach out and let you know that your cabin was right up on the same level as the skiing - it was in part responsible for the trip being a huge success for my family (and me!). We loved Gold Rush, the views, the rooms, the well thought out layout, etc. I'm also not sure if there is a better place to hot tub in the U.S. than that deck. My
