From beginning planning to the day after our wedding and reception, Nicholas and Kathryn couldn't have been more helpful, thoughtful, and supportive. The location was ideal for out of town guests, the accommodations were lovely, and the meal delicious. The rustic, western setting was just what we had pictured. Kind & efficient staff members rounded out an unforgettable experience for us. Thank you, Nicholas & Kathryn! The Gallatin River Lodge will always hold a special place in our hearts and memories. We highly recommend!

The first time was just to soak for the day, which was only about $15 for a day pass. It felt amazing on a cold snowy day. I came back recently to experience the winter getaway package while my friend was visiting. It includes a night stay in the lodge, dinner at the restaurant, access to the breakfast buffet and of course the soaking pools. It was such a relaxing weekend and a great value! The lodge is very rustic and cozy. The restaurant is very nice and feels more upscale. The food was incredible, but I would love to see more vegetarian/vegan options. There are some salads and a mushroom pasta, but it was very heavy on the dairy- delicious though! The bread before dinner was AMAZING and the staff were really on top of things. My favorite part about the restaurant was the breakfast buffet. I loved the pancakes and huge assortment of tasty breakfast food. I felt so pampered having such a wonderful breakfast and then soaking in the pools. I would highly recommend staying at Chico for a fun Montana staycation or vacation!

Mountain Sky has been our dream vacation for the last two fall seasons and we've rebooked for 2017…read morealready. My wife and I just wrapped up our second stay with them for an adults only 5 night stay. The ranch is truly like nothing else we've experienced. At the beginning of your stay the head wrangler catches up with you and pairs you with 1 of their 130 horses that are wonderfully trained and cared for on site. The food is one of the major highlights for me and you will enjoy plated 3-4 course dinners each night, with several entrees to choose from at each meal. The cabins and amenities are great, but what really makes your stay special is the people, both the staff and guests, that you spend the week with. I can honestly say it is the best customer service experience I have had to-date, and that doesn't do it justice, because you leave there feeling like family. Things to consider: 1. The Guest Ranch appears pricey to some and we definitely agree that it's a considerable amount of money to spend on a 5 night vacation. That said, we left both years satisfied and without any regrets. 2. We have only visited in late September and early October near the end of their season. Both stays had at least 1 day of rainy weather. You can ride horse and do most activities even with rain, or just read and drink coffee next the a roaring fire, but weather and timing of the visit may be something to consider. 3. Alcohol is not included but the bar is very generous and has a great wine list. That said, we've brought special bottles of wine to the ranch to enjoy with dinner, without issues.

Holy hell. First time in Big Sky and I am absolutely in love…read more The resort is MASSIVE...like, "I‑did‑three‑full‑days‑of‑boarding‑and-still-didn't‑hit‑every‑lift" massive. Every time we thought we were getting our bearings, we'd discover another whole zone tucked behind a ridge. Big Sky really does live up to its name. We kicked things off on what was supposed to be a "warm‑up run," but joke's on us, it was long, challenging, and honestly kind of brutal... in the best possible way. These runs are no joke and some of the longest I've ever ridden. But once the legs woke up, the rest of the day just flowed. Endless terrain, great snow, and barely any crowds. Absolute bliss. Had to pop into The Montage on the far left side of the mountain, and wow, the cocktails are phenomenal. Pricey? Yes. But you're on a mountain this bougie... what did we expect? Totally worth it. And let's talk about that gondola to tram combo up toward Lone Mountain. INSANE. The views are surreal, the exposure is wild, and the access is next‑level. Will I ever attempt the Big Couloir? Absolutely not. Do I love knowing it's there for people braver (and crazier) than me? Absolutely yes. Between the bowls, tree runs, off‑piste pockets, and wide‑open cruisers, there's truly something for everyone and somehow it never feels crowded. Big Sky has officially earned a top spot on my favorite‑resorts list. No question, I will 100% be back.

I thoroughly researched glamping experiences all over the Rockies, and decided to give The…read moreYellowstone Collective Retreat in Big Sky Montana a try because they seemed a better value, very nice, and more authentic than the others I saw, and the photos were inspiring. WE COULD NOT HAVE BEEN MORE PLEASED. Here's what we loved. (1.) We felt like we were really out in the wilderness, instead of a corporate thing disguised as glamping. (2.) The setting was jaw-droppingly beautiful. (3.) Our tent was comfortably and exquisitely outfitted. (4.) We had wonderful privacy and yet the staff was very available, pleasant and accommodating, and (5) The food was really delicious - not too fussy, just really good. The only thing I would suggest is that you request a graphic map with visual markers, mileage, etc., as we felt a little lost the entire time we were trying to get to the site. The staff was very nice in helping us via phone, but we would have arrived more relaxed if we'd been more confident in the route. We will definitely use The Yellowstone Collective Retreat again.

Our tent was amazing - very well designed, a comfortable bed, and a beautiful short walk to get to it. Also the food here was great. There's a chef that cooks breakfast (included), and a four-course meal for dinner (extra). Both were excellent. Also as first-time visitors to Big Sky, MT, the staff was extremely helpful in getting us to the best restaurants and nature activities. Everyone working there was extremely nice. However, they seemed understaffed, which obviously isn't the workers fault - they were trying very hard to keep up with interacting with us and the other guests. For such a high-end place otherwise, with a high-end price, I think Collective Retreats should hire more workers.

We started with the beef carpaccio which was perfect with capers, lemon and parm. I love a good artichoke - this one was very interesting - it had a bit of cheese and seasonings in the center which meant the outer leaves were unseasoned and the interior was delightful. We knew were had overordered so we opted for Steak frites and shared. Everything was cooked perfectly. The one disappointment? The peach margarita - even with a small slice of peach, I couldn't taste peach, nor did it taste like a margarita. It was very flavorless. So still a fabulous experience, just not as fabulous as our last visit.

While I don't expect the staff was likely used to groups of 13 girls coming to visit for a bachelorette, the welcomed us warmly, and took amazing care of us. Chef Chris kept us extremely well fed, and the rest of the staff whipped up incredible Margaritas, and shuttled us to a wide variety of activities including tubing on the local river, skeetshooting, flyfishing, and even hosted a pottery class. The house itself is gorgeous, so many bedrooms I've lost count, with several porches, comfortable couches to enjoy the view from, and even has a small gym. The house is extremely remote, off of a paved route, so if it's the perfect place to truly getaway. We constantly saw deer, rabbits, and wildbirds, and relaxed in the evenings in the hot tub, having a drink on the beautiful wrap-around porch, or taking walks along the road to watch the sunset. Great place for a family reunion, and for taking a break from city life. Would absolutely recommend staying here for the beautiful views, amazing staff, and top notch accommodations.

Without exaggeration, we were quite sad to leave. The accommodations are gorgeous and with 6,000 acres to roam (including horse, elk, and deer herds) there's quite a lot to do. GCR could charge more but they kindly don't; consider the near private venue and all-inclusive world class food, and it's a bargain. The food, while we're on it, was ridiculously good (go Rory). Nearby we went on several hikes and took advantage of Tracey's skeet shooting tutorial, and Kendra's patience, to round out a wonderful weekend.
