One of the most popular times of year to visit Big Sky is winter, and for good reason. When the snow starts falling, this town turns into a magical winter wonderland filled with adventure. If you are looking to plan a Montana skiing vacation to Big Sky, now is the time to start planning. To help you have the best trip possible, the team at Two Pines Properties has put together a list of tips to make your trip the best it can be.
Tip 1: Purchase Your Ski Tickets as Soon as Possible
Big Sky Resort has been a premier Montana skiing destination for five decades. This means lift tickets can sell out quickly. We recommend purchasing your tickets as soon as you know when you’ll be visiting Big Sky. Your ticket includes access to all 39 chairlifts and the Lone Peak Tram. Purchasing early also means you can save on the price, and cost increases closer to opening day.
Tip 2: Figure Out What Equipment You’re Going to Use
Transporting skis is not always the easiest. However, if you want to bring your own equipment with you, take advantage of our partnership with Ship Skis. This service provides hassle-free door-to-door shipping for your ski equipment and luggage. Don’t worry if you don’t have your own equipment or don’t feel like shipping it. Big Sky Resort offers high-quality rentals slopside at Madison Base and Mountain Village. Save on your rental by booking them online.
Tip 3: Look into Extra Fun
Your day on the slopes doesn’t have to be limited to self-guided fun. Sign up for a guided experience or a private lesson. Try skiing in a whole new “light” by taking part in headlamp night skiing; hours vary during the season. There’s also cross-country skiing, which is a great way to explore the beauty of Big Sky,
Tip 4: Reserve Your Ski in/Ski out Rental
One of the best ways to make your Montana skiing vacation to Big Sky the best it can be is by reserving a ski in/ski out rental from Two Pines. These incredible properties are conveniently located near trails. Given the popularity of these types of rentals during the winter, don’t wait too long to book your stay.
After a day spent on the slopes, rest up in your cozy home away from home. Our Big Sky rentals feature all the comforts of home, including fully-equipped kitchens and spacious living areas. Some have additional amenities, like porches and hot tubs. To learn more about our rentals or special offers, call 406-995-2299.
