A New Era of Alpine Luxury

 

Big Sky just welcomed a new icon to its landscape. One&Only Moonlight Basin, the brand’s first-ever resort in the United States, is now officially open, bringing a world-class alpine experience to the heart of Moonlight Basin’s pristine wilderness.

Set on 240 secluded acres bordered by more than 17,000 acres of protected land, the resort blends seamlessly into the surrounding mountains. With its thoughtful design, elevated experiences, and front-row access to outdoor adventure, One&Only Moonlight Basin offers guests an entirely new way to experience Big Sky.

 

 

One&Only Resort

 

A Milestone Arrival in Big Sky

 

One&Only Resorts, known for its ultra-luxury destinations across the world, chose Big Sky for its U.S. debut, and it’s easy to see why. Surrounded by towering pines, dramatic peaks, and expansive open space, the resort celebrates Montana’s “mountain way of life” while delivering a refined, modern interpretation of alpine hospitality.

Designed by renowned architect Tom Kundig, the low-rise structures echo the textures and tones of the mountain environment, allowing nature to remain the focal point at every turn. The result is a property that feels both elevated and deeply rooted in its setting.

 

 

Alpine-Chic Rooms, Cabins, and Private Homes

Guests can choose from a collection of rooms, suites, standalone cabins, and private homes, each crafted to highlight Big Sky’s natural splendor.

Resort Accommodations Include:

  • Thoughtfully appointed guest rooms and spacious suites

  • Interconnecting family rooms are ideal for group travel

  • Freestanding cabins tucked among the trees

  • Outdoor soaking tubs, fire pits, and expansive terraces

  • The signature Big Sky Suite with panoramic mountain views

For multi-generational travelers or longer stays, the resort’s four- to six-bedroom private homes offer a luxury residential experience with full kitchens, hot tubs, and generous indoor-outdoor spaces.

Your Gateway to All-Season Adventure

One&Only Moonlight Basin was built for those who love the outdoors. In winter, the heated One&Only Gondola transports guests directly to Big Sky Resort’s Madison Base in minutes. On property, more than 15 miles of trails invite snowshoeing, Nordic skiing, and fat biking through quiet forests and open meadows.

 

When the seasons shift, visitors can enjoy:

  • Guided hiking and mountain biking

  • Stand-up paddleboarding and fly fishing on the resort’s private lakes

  • Casting lessons and wildlife spotting in Moonlight Basin

  • Stargazing sessions at the resort’s private Observatory
