There are mountain houses. And then there are places that actually feel like Montana. Howling Elk Hideaway is one

of those places. Custom art, a real wood-burning fireplace, three king beds with ridiculously comfortable bedding, a

four-twin bunk room, and a private hot tub made for snowy nights under Montana’s Big Sky. All in the heart of Big

Sky’s Meadow Village, just 10 minutes from the mountain.

Howling Elk Hideaway is a four-bedroom, 3.5-bath retreat that's spacious, warm, a little wild, and absolutely

loaded with personality.

The artwork alone is worth wandering around the house with a drink in your hand. Custom pieces fill the rooms, and

presiding over it all is the enormous elk above the fireplace—the unofficial mayor of Howling Elk Hideaway.

And yes, there’s a real wood-burning fireplace. We even stock the wood. Because coming to Montana and pushing a

button for a fake fire just seems like cheating.

Inside, we didn't skimp on the important stuff either.

Three king beds with sink-in, ridiculously comfortable bedding, plus a bunk room with four twins. Soft where you

want it, crisp where it counts. Sleep comes easy here.

Beautiful, high-end furnishings. Tile walk-in showers. A clawfoot soaking tub in the primary suite. And enough room

to spread out so a house full of people doesn't mean spending your entire vacation sitting on top of one another.

This isn't a house filled with generic mountain décor ordered by the truckload.

There are things to look at. Things to talk about. Details you'll remember after you leave.

And then there’s the private hot tub.

Come back from skiing with tired legs. Grab a drink. Climb in. Snow falling? Even better. Let it snow, settle in, and

then look up.

You're soaking outside in Big Sky, Montana, underneath that enormous Montana sky.

This is why you came here.

The West Fork of the Gallatin River winds nearby and feeds the neighborhood recreational pond. Pickleball courts

are directly across the way. Historic Crail Ranch is just a few doors down. The home sits immediately along Big Sky's

community golf course, with Meadow Village restaurants, shops, trails and activities nearby.

There's also a two-car garage, because scraping six inches of snow off your rental car at 7:00 in the morning isn't

anyone's idea of a luxury vacation.

And when the mountains start calling?

Big Sky Resort is roughly 10 minutes up the road.

Ski hard. Hike somewhere beautiful. Play 18. Wander down by the river. Lose spectacularly at pickleball.

Then come home.

Light the fire. Open a bottle of wine. Settle in and watch the Montana sky do its thing.

Because that's really the point of Howling Elk Hideaway:

The house is part of the vacation.

It's comfortable. It's interesting. It's unmistakably Montana.

There’s a giant elk watching over the whole operation.

This isn't another beige mountain rental.

Come howl awhile.
