KEY Curation Notes

Ski-in/ski-out within the Powder Ridge complex, accessing the slopes via a groomed trail network. The resort base is half a mile away; the Explorer Ski Lift is a 4-minute drive. Powder Ridge sits between the Moonlight Basin and Big Sky base areas — well-positioned for both sides of the combined terrain.
Wood-burning fireplace in the main living area — both king bedrooms on the upper level have private balconies with forest and slope views, and the master has its own en-suite with dual vanity.
Private hot tub, gas grill on the deck, and a ski boot warmer are all confirmed. The double-tank water heater is worth noting for a group of ten — everyone gets a proper hot shower after a day on the mountain.
Four bedrooms sleeping ten: two kings upstairs (each with balcony), a queen and a queen-over-queen bunk on the main level. Three bathrooms — one en-suite to the master, one shared on the upper level, one on the main.
No air conditioning — standard for Big Sky. No elevator listed.
Starter supplies are minimal by design. Travel-sized toiletries and a basic kitchen kit are included. Stock up before heading to the mountain — KEY.co's grocery delivery covers Big Sky and can have essentials waiting at check-in.
