Welcome to Low Dog Mountain Chalet ! This is not your average ski house. Not even close.
At 2,500 square feet spread across four stories with a loft, this ultra-contemporary ski-in/ski-out home sits on the mountainside above Middle Fork Creek with views down the valley that genuinely take your breath away. Floor-to-ceiling picture windows, cathedral ceilings, a funky round jetted tub in the guest ensuite, a wraparound bar in the kitchen, and a fireplace that earns its keep after every powder day. Every room has something that makes you stop and say wow.
Warm up inside with three ways to do it right. The indoor sauna on the lower level is perfect for sore muscles after a long day on the mountain. The indoor hot tub is your cozy retreat when the weather turns. And the private outdoor hot tub looks straight out at Lone Peak. Pick your favorite or work through all three.
The kitchen is as fun as the rest of the house. Cook something great and serve it up at the wraparound bar while the mountains sit in the background. Then head upstairs, or downstairs, and pick your room. Every bedroom has its own character, floor-to-ceiling windows, unique finishes, and that feeling that this place was designed by someone who actually loves being in the mountains.
In winter, making first tracks is almost too easy. Walk down the driveway, click into your skis, and head to the Thunder Wolf lift when snow conditions allow, or take a short walk up to the Bear Back Poma lift. The rest of the group can stay behind by the fireplace. Everyone wins.
In summer, Middle Fork Creek runs right through the property, accessible by a path that leads you straight to one of those quiet Montana moments that is hard to find anywhere else. And if you are bringing your dog, good news. This home welcomes one furry guest.
This is the kind of place that becomes the trip everyone talks about for years.
Ski-in and Ski-out Access:
Ski-in and out to Big Sky Resort. Best for skiers. Possible for children and snowboarders, but ski-in can be more difficult for these groups.
Ski-Out | Travel down the road to the Thunderwolf Lift.
Ski-in | Intermediate and expert take Silverknife to Bear Back Poma. Ski past the bottom of the Poma on the ski trail to Low Dog Road. From here ski the road back to the house.
We recommend beginners ski to the Summit Hotel and walk out the front of the hotel and ski the road the whole way back down to Low Dog Road. Silverknife may be too steep for beginners. Note: During periods of melting the road could be exposed and cause the property to lose ski access since the road is necessary for parts of the process. The Home is only ski accessible when the road is snow-covered.
Winter
Big Sky Resort is the biggest skiing in America, and it earns that title every single year. With 5,800 skiable acres, 4,350 feet of vertical drop, and an average of 400+ inches of snowfall annually, it delivers for every level of skier and rider. When you are ready to step off the slopes, the historic Lone Mountain Ranch has 85+ kilometers of groomed Nordic trails through the wilderness, voted the #1 cross-country ski resort in North America. Beyond that, Yellowstone National Park, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, dog sledding, ice fishing, and world-class spa experiences are all within easy reach.
Summer
The mountains do not slow down when the snow melts. Within minutes you have world-class fly fishing, river rafting, golf, hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, and zip-lining at your doorstep. Follow the scenic Gallatin River along historic Highway 191 and you are at the west entrance of Yellowstone National Park in just 45 minutes. Stay long enough and you will find free concerts, farmers markets, and weekly events scattered throughout the season.

Evenings cool down beautifully at elevation, and opening windows at night is the best way

helps hold the cool air inside. Fans are available in the bedroom closets for additional
comfort. For safety, please only open windows while you are present on the property.
