Overall great experience staying at Swift Bear Chalet. Everything meet our exceeded expectations except for the cleanliness. We gave cleanliness 4 stars do to our socks turning brown when walking around in the house. We are picky when it comes to floors being clean as we never wear shoes in our own home.

Great family and friend get away in Big Sky
We were a party of 10… family and friends traveling from WA, IN and AK for a ski/snowboard trip. The home was as advertised and very comfortable for our party. The host was very responsive. The kitchen was well equipped to cook and serve all 10 of us without issue.

Swift Bear Sojourn
We have been coming to Big Sky for the past four summers….always in Moonlight Basin on the mountain…1-2 weeks in July. We just finished two weeks with 7 of us in Swift Bear and we loved it and had a wonderful time. The house is great, plenty of room to spread out and the main floor living/kitchen/dining is open and wonderful for gathering. The patio and deck is great, and the hot tub worked well and is very large. The bathrooms and water pressure and hot water were all great…very important especially with large families. The laundry room is very large and again, important with big groups/families. The house was spotless….felt very new. The garage was wonderful for storing/hanging waders, boots, etc. the utility room off the garage was also great after long days hiking, to leave boots, clothes, etc. overall, a very good setup. One of the few houses with AC in Big Sky and was important given the heatwave we experienced 7/3-17…..temps we’ve never seen but the house was very comfortable when we need AC. Location is good and close to Beehive and Moonlight….had foxes and mule deer and a juvenile black bear in the neighborhood…always cool! Big Sky Rentals couldn’t have been better…very attentive and quick and easy to communicate with. The house was extremely well stocked (recommend a new vacuum cleaner) with everything needed. The greatest compliment…we would return without hesitation.
Mark T. - Posted: 7/19/2021
Thank you for these kind words Mark, it warms my heart to know you enjoyed every minute of it and would return to Swift Bear Chalet without hesitation. And that little black bear....such a rascal! We've several wily bears this summer and a great time to remind everyone - don't feed the wildlife. These little guys like to join people in their houses and wind up in serious trouble.

Wonderful property!
Great house for a family stay. They have everything you need to cook and have a comfortable trip away from home. The management company was always responsive and quickly got back to me with any questions I had prior and during our stay. Very organized and had plenty of towels/ cleaning supplies/ space to store snow gear. Would highly recommend and hope to stay again in the future!

Amazing house for a family ski vacation!
Our family loved the time we spent in Big Sky at 25 Swift Bear. The house was perfect for our crew, from it’s architecture and design to the stock of supplies needed for every room to the spectacular and ever changing views of Lone Peak that we enjoyed every morning, it truly made our time together amazing and easy to enjoy. The company managing the property, Big Sky Vacation Rentals, were very welcoming and extremely responsive with all communication. We will definitely be back!

Swift Bear Chalet - Big Sky, MO - GREAT!
The house was absolutely stunning. Extremely clean and decorated beautifully. All amenities that you could possibly ask for to prepare meals along with a great big dining table. Our hot tub did not work... that was the only problem. We were reimbursed $50 per night because of this and the management group of the property were extremely thorough. We also had a huge slide of snow fall off the roof and onto our rental car! It caused significant damage... we submitted a claim to our personal insurance..... but we are not sure of the result yet. House was amazing and would recommend without reservation despite the avalanche on our car and the hot tub!
Allison N. - Posted: 2/22/2018
Thank you for staying with Big Sky Vacation Rentals. We enjoy sharing our local knowledge of the area along with our favorite dining experiences. We hope your group enjoyed these recommendations! The hot tub is now fully fixed and running as normal. Again, we apologize for the inconvenience and hope you enjoyed the reimbursement! We look forward to hosting you again, thanks for a great experience! -Big Sky Vacation Rentals Team

Just gorgeous!
Our party of 6, 4 adults and 2 teenagers enjoyed a wonderful week at Swift Bear Chalet. It is beautifully decorated, the kitchen and laundry are well stocked with cleaning products, store cupboard essentials and crockery. The bedrooms and bathrooms are top end quality and the views are stunning. We all wished we had longer to enjoy both the house and the surrounding area - wonderful.

Couldn't have been better!
We've rented a lot of homes over the years, and Swift Bear Chalet tops them all as a composite of comfort, amenities, location, and staff support. The house is perfect for our group of 7, though it can sleep more without difficulty. Being that it's a mile from the entrance to Big Sky Resort, you're 5 minutes from the action but feel quite secluded. The kitchen is wonderfully stocked with spices, condiments, oils, flour, etc, so grocery purchases can be limited to main ingredients, a very nice touch. New flat screen TVs with Dish in every bedroom, a fabulous whole-house sound system, nice big (and clean!) hot tub, fireplaces inside and out - it's just beautifully put together. Lastly, the staff at the rental agency are extremely accommodating and helpful. We really couldn't ask for more, and I know we'll stay here again.
Brad G. - Posted: 7/2/2014
"Wow! We couldn't be more pleased with your guest review as a reflection of your stay and experience there! Because we as a family were intensely involved in and intimate with the outcomes of the house's qualities and features which you mention, we the homeowners do take great pride and satisfaction in knowing, as you have so kindly and generously pointed out, how much our guests appreciate and value their time there, just as we do when we're there. However, as you also suggest, these things we appreciate most about the house and its environs are intrinsically and fundamentally also attached to Everyone that helped us make our vision of our dream home, escape, and rental property a reality. As you commented and experienced first-hand, we, too, truly believe that we have entrusted this "baby" of ours in the best hands, care, and support system out there--Big Sky Vacation Rentals and Headwaters Hot Tub of which you allude. We wouldn't have it any other way! We do hope you can make it back for another visit and stay in our home! Thank you for your highly complimentary review." Thank You, Brian, Linda, and Harry

family of four, outdoor adventure athletes
We were very happy with everything about this home. The home is beautifully decorated, intelligently outfitted with high end sound system, heating, appliances, furniture, ect. The location has a wonderful view of the mountain and is conveniently located close to moonlight basin and big sky. The ski out is easy with a little direction, however the ski in is do able but requires more effort to find the house. We stayed here for a ski vacation with our two teen age sons and actually enjoyed cooking in, and all the amenities of the home. The house was completely outfitted with everything and there was backup of all neccesities. No expense spared. Very happy renting this home and the management company was very easy and accomodating.

Family vacation in Big Sky
My family and several of my son's friends stayed at the Swiss Bear Chalet 12-27 thru 1-4-14. There were 11 of us total and we could not have picked a better place to spend our vacation. The home was warm, cozy, offered spectacular views and well stocked with all we needed for our group. Our group consisted of skiers and snowboarders and we were all able to ski in and out during our stay. However we took full advantage of the free shuttle that was provided to us and was promptly picked up and returned at the end of the day. The home was BEAUTIFUL with not a detail overlooked. The location was quiet and just a 5 minute car ride to Moonlight or Big Sky. At one point my sister-in-law said, " I feel like I live here!" Our group enjoyed downhill and cross country skiing. We cross countried at Lone Mountain Ranch which was superb. We also spent a day snow shoeing at the Ranch. The dinners and lunches at the Ranch are the best! Our other favorite is Buck's T4. Can't be beat! Thank you to the owners of this beautiful property for sharing it with our family.
