Cowboy Heaven Cabin 11 Derringer | Cowboy Cabins Big Sky

Each staff member we encountered was great. I appreciate the phone calls and emails before our visit. The initial meeting at the cabin was informative. We knew that staff was a phone call away but we had privacy the entire stay as well.

We loved every part of our stay- from the support of staff to the cabin to the Big Sky Area. We cannot recommend enough! The cabin was equipped with everything a family needs. The cabin was clean, comfortable, and quickly felt like home. We really appreciated being able to escape to the privacy and comfort of the cabin (especially the hot tub) after long days spent in busy places like Yellowstone Park! The absolute crown jewel is the front porch- hot tub, comfortable chairs, gas fireplace, and grill. Each morning was spent with a coffee on that porch and drink at the end! My wife and I commented that we want to take the view from the front of the cabin back home with us. We already miss it! We highly recommend and will return!

They were very helpful. When lost to find the cabin, we called the number they provided and they helped direct us.

It was a clean, spotless cabin. I LOVED the view! Every piece of equipment worked- fireplace, hot tub, kitchen appliances, washer and dryer, etc. It was seamless to enter and leave. Only problem was- little difficult to locate. Directions were not easy to follow and find the cabin. But once there- so worth it!!

The staff at Big Sky Vacation Rentals was very friendly and extremely responsive to every request we had. Their standard practices seemed to anticipate every need a renter would encounter. Checking in and out was super easy and prompt.

We absolutely loved our stay in CH Cabin 11 Derringer. The cabin felt almost opulent in terms of the cleanliness, housewares, furnishings, and decor. The heating was outstanding, so even though the temperature was in the teens outside, the inside was quite comfortable. The location was super quiet, easy to access, and had great views of the mountains to the north, either from the inside of the cabin or while in the hot tub. The check in was very prompt, and check out was was completely painless. The staff was knowledgeable, friendly and responsive. The only problem we encountered was having to leave!

They are always on hand to help with anything you need. There homes are always top notch and supplied with all the thoughtful touches. This is my 7th year in a row I have vacationed in Big Sky. I almost always use Big Sky Vacation Rentals. They are the best! One year I went with another company because they happened to carry the exact rental unit I needed. What a noticeable difference. I came back to Big Sky Vacation Rentals and this time wont settle for anything less.

This is a beautiful property if you have a small group. I liked the ski-in, ski-out ability. Ive stayed at another Cowboy Heaven cabin and this one was a little nicer. Big screens in every room and a nice outdoor fire ring sitting arrangement on the porch.

TripAdvisor Review: This was possibly the nicest mountain getaway we have been to yet. The cabin was immaculately clean and cozy--less than 5 minutes from walking in the door we were wishing we could call it home! The views from the front windows and the hot tub are unbeatable in Big Sky. The bedroom was super comfortable and we didn't have the normal trouble we have sleeping in hotels or beds away from home. Bathrooms and kitchen were every clean and fully stocked. It was also very convenient to be able to do laundry after days of hiking. Because we did not have any issues, we did not have to talk much with the staff but when they welcomed us to the cabin they were very nice and seemed knowledgeable and accessible.

This is a little piece of heaven! We were blown away by the location, the cabin, the serenity. Definitely coming back!

TripAdvisor Review: We arrived to about 6 inches of snow on the ground, and it snowed about another 6 over the next few days. Cabin was very cozy, exceptionally clean. We were fortunate to see a moose family, deer & fawn and red fox right in front of the cabin. A positive since our last stay was a better user-friendly hot tub cover. Cabin had all the dishes, cookware and utensils necessary, great grill, lots of DVD's & games. The road was plowed both days it was snow covered, which was a big relief for us as we did not have a 4 wheel drive or snow tires. View from the front deck of this cabin is down the hill towards Moonlight Basin entrance and across to the Spanish Peaks Mtns - gorgeous. View from the bedroom windows is of Lone Peak Mtn. Would definitely recommend this cabin.

Beautiful cabin. Exceptionally well equipped. Great views.

My family loved our time at this cabin. It was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. Loved the front porch looking out at the mountains. Complimentary backpacks were a hit with our daughters.

Your team were very helpful at all times offering guidance or helping us. They were usually available before we realized we needed help.

The cabin was very well appointed, immaculate and perfect for a family of 3 kids. We were continuously surprised by the quality of kitchen appliances and implements. We absolutely loved coming home after a day of skiing and piling into the hot tub. The views were stunning and we could not imagine a more satisfying cabin for our group. We will be back next year. And then there was the skiing. We all have our favorite runs and places we will return. The kids' skills improved every day and we even extended our stay by a day and chose to drive home to MN in a single 15 hour day as an easy price to pay for the pleasure of another day on the slope. Thank you for a wonderful family week of fun and exercise.

This cabin & vacation experience was beyond heavenly perfection. My family and I were blown away. We had the time of our life!!! The host and teams communication was unparalleled.

The staff at Big Sky Vacation Rentals couldn't have been more helpful.

We loved staying at Derringer Cabin 11. Location was amazing and the cabin is wonderful. We would stay again!

We spent 5 nights in this beautiful Barafu Cabin in Moonlight Basin about a mile from Big Sky. We chose this cabin because of the hot tub, firepit, amenities, and because it was more secluded than being in Big Sky. The cabin was very nicely decorated with artwork, warm throws, comfy pillows, candles. The kitchen was extremely well equipped with every small appliance, serving ware and cookware that you could want. One bedroom (with adjoining ensuire) had a king size bed, TV/Blu-Ray, washer/dryer, closet. The other bedroom had bunk beds (double on bottom/twin on top), TV etc. The main bath also had a shower. Both bathrooms had heated tile floors. The living room had a gas "stove" that came on automatically when needed, great TV, lots of DVDs and games. The deck faced the Spanish Peaks Mtns and included a gas BBQ, gas firepit (both hooked up to cabin), table, 4 wood chairs, and 2 large cushioned wood chairs, as well as the hot tub. The bedrooms faced Lone Peak Mountain. We saw fox and deer very close. A short hike up the hill into a clearing led us to 2 hiking trails - Elkhorn Trail and Lone Mountain Trail, and both were very well marked. There is a lot of construction close by in Moonlight Basin, but not close enough to bother us at all. We rented through Big Sky Vacation Rentals and were Impressed by their excellent organizational skills. We received informative e-mails prior to our stay, a visit from an employee within 30 minutes of our arrival at the cabin, check-out reminder. When we didn't understand the Direct TV system, they were only a phone call away, and came to the cabin as well to help us. All staff we dealt with were friendly and helpful-we would highly recommend dealing with this company.

Each time that we requested information or needed any assistance, the staff were friendly and helpful.

We loved our Montana experience. The best part was staying at CH Cabin11 Derringer. The cabin decor was absolutely beautiful. The amenities such as dishes, pottery, TV in each room, heated bathroom floors, hot tub and comfortable beds are just a few of the features we enjoyed. We will definitely return and request this cowboy cabin.

We did have difficulty getting the fire pit to ignite, but luckily John Allen came out to our cabin to show us how to use it. We really appreciated how he came on such short notice to help us out!

My friends and I had a wonderful stay in the Barafu cabin this summer! The property is set in a beautiful location on the mountain and we were blown away by the amazing views all around. The cabin itself was gorgeous and decorated in a warm, cozy style. The fire pit and hot tub on the deck made for relaxing evenings to take in the surroundings, and the built-in sound system provided great entertainment for us on those not-so-relaxing evenings. Navigating to Yellowstone from the cabin was extremely easy, and we really appreciated the short but scenic drive. We were able to fully enjoy the park and catch sightings of the wildlife there. It truly was a memorable and rewarding experience for us! We would highly recommend staying in this cabin for anyone traveling to the Big Sky area.

Everyone was friendly and helpful.

The stay was fantastic! We loved all if the amenities at the cabin. The decor was incredible.. We would request same cabin again.

I traveled to Big Sky w/ my husband and 11-month old. This cabin was perfect. Everything is up-to-date, stylish and comfortable. We didn't need to bring a thing. Big Sky Vacation Rentals was very accommodating...brought us a pack-n-play and high chair for a nominal fee. The views are incredible. Porch has a lovely fire pit and hot tub...and a cute little fox that would visit every evening. There are hiking trails within steps or a short drive from the cabin. Easy drive to town for parks, more hiking trails, grocery stores (although we opted for grocery delivery which is very reasonable), farmers market, music in the park. Easy day trip to Yellowstone National Park. Golf, horseback riding, zip lines, rafting also available. Beds and bedding are luxurious and comfortable. Kitchen has everything you need. Large "curve" TV and an unbelievable movie selection is available. We didn't want to leave.

TripAdvisor Review: Yee-Haw for the Barafu Cowboy Cabin! The Barafu Cowboy Cabin is a real treat! It is impeccably furnished/decorated, decked out with all the latest technology (large flat screen TVs, WiFi,) very comfortable beds with high end bedding and the views from the patio are simply unbeatable. The staff was very helpful during our stay and quick to respond to a temperature issue with the hot tub.

TripAdvisor Review: This place was amazing!! We booked Cowboy Heaven Cabin Barafu for our family vacation, my husband, 13 year old son and myself. It was even better then we expected! Big Sky was our home base for our week long trip, visiting Yellowstone, Grand Tetons, Bozeman, & Virginia and Nevada Cities. The cabin was super clean, decorated beautifully and incredibly comfy. Plenty of towels, plenty of glasses, dishes, utensils and whatever you could imagine you would need in the kitchen. So many DVD's to choose from, however, we only watched a movie one night. Who wants to watch TV when you have the amazing views to watch. After long days of visiting the parks, we would come back to the cabin in the evening, put steaks or shrimp on the grill, sit in the hot tub, have a glass or two of wine and relax taking in the view. At night, the stars were unreal! Every time you blinked it was as if 100 more stars appeared. We were fortunate enough to have meteor showers two nights we were staying and couldn't believe how clear they were. Upon arrival, we were greeted by a rep from Big Sky Vacation Rentals. She was quick and informative. We saw a black bear one night while sitting in the hot tub. It walked past our cabin and continued on without incident. The next night a coyote did the same thing. Two mornings in a row, a red fox walked by as well. We had a washer and dryer in the cabin which was nice to do a quick, small load of laundry. In the bathrooms the rain showers were amazing. I usually have to beg my 13 year old son to shower, but he loved showering there! the mattresses were so comfortable. Lots of pillows and warm blankets. Even though it was August and the daytime temps were warm with the sun, early mornings and evenings were on the cool side. There was a propane fire pit on the porch which we used every evening as well. It was quick and easy. I could go on and on and on about this wonderful cabin! My husband and I hesitated on writing a review, we don't want everyone staying here, we want it our secret. LOL. If there weren't so many other wonderful places in this great big world to visit and show my son, we'd come back here every year, in a heartbeat! We will visit again though sometime soon, absolutely!

TripAdvisor Review: Incredible views, beautiful modern-rustic cabin! We have no improvements on this cabin. The location in the mountains was incredible; beautiful views and felt secluded. The cabin is a fantastic mix of modern features and rustic/cabin feel. They were more than welcoming to us, and got a coffee pot for us our first day when we asked for one instead of a Keurig. :)

TripAdvisor Review: Cowboy Heaven...best spot in Big Sky. Our family just returned from a spring break ski trip to Big Sky and we loved Cabin Barafu in Cowboy Heaven. The cabin was perfect for a family of four...just enough room to spread out and the kids loved having their own DVD library and big screen TV for movie watching. The hot tub was also a hit and the 360 views from every window in the cabin were amazing. Although the snow conditions were a bit sketchy, Cabin Barafu was one of the few locations that was still a true ski in/out location. We just put on our skis, skied down to Moonlight Lodge to get lift tickets, and we were out and on our way. Very easy to get back to the cabin as well. Thanks for sharing this little piece of heaven with us. We will definitely be back!

TripAdvisor Review: Perfect ski-in/ski-out location for family of four. I stayed here with my three boys and would stay here again anytime. Access in and out was a breeze. We were able to get over to the main base area at Big Sky easily and get in and out of the cabin a few times a day without losing much ski time. The home is well kept with great amenities (my boys were particularly impressed with the curved screen tv). View from the hot tub is spectacular. Kirsten King and Big Sky Vacation Rentals always do an exceptional job of making sure your stay is perfect.
