Welcome to the Swift Bear Base-INN! This 4-bedroom + bunk room, 3.5-bathroom custom built log home sits on Cascade Ridge overlooking all of Big Sky Resort. Surrounded by rich forest terrain, this home offers easy ski access during the Winter months; the home is also hike in/out & mountain bike in/out. The home boasts in-floor radiant heat, two separate living rooms, an air hockey table, bar area, private hot tub, and large deck overlooking Big Sky Resort. The home is under a mile from the world-famous Beehive Basin trailhead, this is the ultimate mountain home base for your Big Sky adventure. Enjoy staying in a true Montana mountain home under the Big Sky! In Winter, find yourself nestled into a true Winter wonderland. The legendary Big Sky Resort is just a stones throw away from the home. Big Sky Resort or, "The American Alps," grants you access to some the BIGGEST skiing in North America. The home grants you easy ski access to the main base at Big Sky. Easily catch the groomed residential ski route to make your way to the main base, this route is weather permitting and may not be the best for beginners or young children. Additionally, drive 2-miuntes to park at the free skier lot at either the main Big Sky base or the Madison base area. For the Nordic skiers, the world-famous Lone Mountain Ranch is just an 5-mile drive from the home. Find yourself exploring a what seems to be endless wonderland of groomed Nordic trails and snowshoeing. Other close by Winter adventures include snowmobile tours, sleigh-ride dinners, snow-coach tours of Yellowstone National Park, guided ski tours in Yellowstone, dog-sledding tours, and more! Ski In/Out Information- Access is weather permitting, the groomed residential trail is maintained by Big Sky Resort. Additionally, please note Big Sky Resort has 6000+ acres of skiable terrain. Using the ski in/out access trails from this home can take you 20-30 minutes to get to and from the main base area. We recommend this ski access for a more experienced skier. Young children and beginners may struggle. Ski Out- We recommend walking to the bottom of the driveway to then catch the groomed trail. The groomed trail starts at the end of the driveway across the road. This groomed trail will lead you to the White Otter Lift. From White Otter you will partially ski down the Lower Morning Star run, then make your way to the Big Sky base area. Ski In- Find your way to the Cascade Lift (residential access lift). You will need to side step or skate ski a short distance uphill to get onto the Cascade lift. Once off the Cascade lift you will need to walk up a set of stairs to get back onto the groomed trail. You will make your way down trail (B) to get back to the house. This trail is best for skiers, snowboarders will need to keep up their speed. In Summer, escape from the hustle and bustle to truly escape from it all. This home boasts an impressive landscape. Adventure the impressive explorable terrain to include nature landscaping surrounding the home, an expansive deck overlooking the wooded forest with Lone Peak towering above granting amazing views to be seen from the home, and a private hot tub. In addition, easily access a multitude of local hiking and mountain biking trails. The world-famous Gallatin River is just a 7-mile drive from the home. Enjoy community events such as the Farmer's Market and Big Sky's free Summer Concert Series (Summer events are generally spanning from mid-June through early-September). Other close by summer adventures include whitewater rafting, guided fly fishing, kayaking, zip-lining, horseback riding, hiking, hot air balloon rides, world-class mountain biking and more!

Was our immediate families very first winter-week's-long-get-together-vacation. Our very first was Cabo last year. So 8 adults and 3 toddlers stayed very comfortable at your beautiful chalet/home. Everything worked and it was spotless. Very close to Big Sky Resort as we'd hoped. Skiing was a big part of our time. So the distance was perfect. We came to early in the season (late December) for the 'ski-in/ski-out' at the chalet to be of any benefit. Wait until January-March to go for the ski/in ski/out; more snow and the lift near the chalet will be operating. We spent a ton of relaxing and fun time in the chalet. One of the kids SO loves to cook. So he made or got pizza one night every dinner was at the chalet. Plenty of room for everyone. The hot-tub was a plus after two days of skiing. I personally used it after both days 1 and 2 on the slopes. Not sure exactly what the future holds but the kids talked alot about coming back to your place next time. Thank you.
