Big Sky is Base Camp to Yellowstone National Park

BIG SKY, MT. – Whenever any travel magazine puts together a list of every trip you must make, a journey to America’s first national park, Yellowstone usually lands near the top.   It is an amazing experience exploring the world famous geysers, taking in the scenery of the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone River, and witnessing the sights and smells of paint pots and hot springs.

 But when the day is over, Big Sky Resort offers the perfect balance of natural beauty with the services and choices of luxury accommodations, heated hot tubs, pools and spa service.  Making Big Sky the base camp for a Yellowstone adventure opens up many opportunities missed with the often-crowded gateway cities.

 By staying at Big Sky the mountains may be enjoyed how they’re meant to be, with crisp air, no vehicle exhaust and within the reach of a pedestrian accessible Mountain Village campus complete with restaurants, shopping and hiking trails with a scenic lift.

 Big Sky offers many of the same experiences inside the park including limitless vistas, abundant wildlife including moose, elk, bears and the occasional wolf and the incredible Gallatin River providing fly-fishing opportunities. 

 By making Big Sky the base camp of Yellowstone, daytrips are easy and accessible from a central location, the West entrance is equidistant from the charming University town of Bozeman, and a day loop to the historic town of Virginia City and the Lewis and Clark caverns are an easy drive.

 Instead of settling for an over-booked chain hotel, the Big Sky Mountain Village offers 14 different properties ranging from the luxury Summit Hotel up to 4 bedroom Powder Ridge Cabins.  When staying at the Summit Hotel, guests have all the necessities for a comfortable stay including the Boyne Beds made exclusively for Boyne Resorts, with Primaloft comforters, 300 thread count sheets and overstuffed mattresses, free high-speed internet access, room service, health club, pools, spa service and restaurant and retail under the same roof.

 Package deals are available, the Base Camp to Yellowstone package that offers a variety of activities along with a guided and educational day trip to Yellowstone.  Vouchers are provided that can be redeemed for horseback riding, whitewater rafting, spa service, golf and each package includes a scenic lift ticket and breakfast.  Packages are available at the Summit, Huntley Lodge, Shoshone Condominiums, Powder Ridge Cabins and the new Village Center.
