MOONLIGHT BASIN

Luxury hotel brand One & Only chose Big Sky, Montana as the location for their first-ever resort in the United States. Moonlight Basin sits in the Madison Range at the base of Lone Mountain, with views of the Spanish Peaks to the north and the Madison River valley to the west. The west entrance of Yellowstone National Park is only an hour to the south.

The resort includes a 73-key hotel split between three lodge buildings, 68 private residences, guest cabins, spa, and the Ski Lodge and Gondola that provide a private-use connection for guests and residents to the Big Sky ski area. Total site development consists of 100 acres of pristine Montana wilderness.

The Ski Lodge and Gondola are an ideally-situated gateway connecting guests to Lone Mountain. The Ski Lodge includes a Restaurant and Bar, Outfitters, both Day-Use and Members’ Lockers, and services such as ski tuning and equipment storage. Due to the geographic limitations of the unique site, the gondola structure comprises a massive cantilevered steel frame that encloses the terminal. This dramatic architectural gesture sets the stage for an unparalleled experience traveling from the resort to Lone Mountain.

Ski Lodge & Gondola scheduled for completion October 2024.
