Great for family reunion

The structure is amazing -- the massive logs used in construction and the skill in creating this four story (including basement), 6-bedroom blew us away. The owners and managers are terrific. The grounds large and the walk to the beautiful river is short. And the first floor living space -- great room and kitchen -- are terrific. We're all hoping for a repeat engagement.....bob

A Wonderful Reunion

Everyone loved the Lucky Dog Lodge . We had several gatherings in the back and long dinner conversations in the family room . The bedrooms and bathrooms accommodated guests coming and going to different activities . The location in the neighborhood provided a warm atmosphere and there was easy access to town or roads to hiking and fishing adventures . Property owners amazing people living nearby .

Fantastic property for large ski group

Our group of 7 avid skiers loved Luck Dog as our home base for 4 terrific days of skiing in Big Sky. The log cabin is spacious, clean, and well appointed for a large ski group. Staying in Bozeman is a far more economical option than Big Sky, and the 1 hour drive to Big Sky is easy and beautiful through the Gallatin River valley. Property management is fast to respond and very thorough.

Graduation 2024

We had an amazing experience! This property was perfect for our large family to celebrate MSU graduation. The outdoor amenities were perfect and the kitchen was fully stocked with everything we could possibly imagine needing! The beds were comfy the number of bedrooms was awesome! The bathroom situation on the second floor was a little surprising, but it worked out fine once we got it figured out. Paul was very responsive in communication and great to work with!

Spectacular time had by all! “Best vacation ever!” Was quoted by many in our group, especially the 20 something kids. Everyone was impressed by the structure of the house and big log beams, the three floors allowed for our three families to spread out and give everyone space including the multiple bathrooms, with almost 20 people that was a main reason I booked the house, and it just looked Montana cool. Stayed for five nights, one day at Big Sky where the drive was stunning so the time to get there was enjoyable; then spent two days at Bridger which was great including the multiple places to sit outside and grab food/beers and enjoy the skiers coming down. Hit one day at Yellowstone and saw wildlife galore, lots of pics to be had. It was a full stay of just enjoying skiing and the time together as a large group in the house: sat in multiple groups around the house enjoying time together at the table talking, sitting by the fireplace, singing and dancing throughout the evenings. Highly recommended especially for large groups. Sleeping pads provided extra space for friends who popped in for a night to tag along for the morning ski trips: one day we did manage to get the full house out and on the way to ski by 830 am: plenty is space for all ski gear as well right at the front door so made for easy exodus for the large groups of skis/bags. Thank you to Paul for providing a great ski vacation boding moment for our three families! All will remember forever.

This is a perfect getaway for fishing with a large group. The sleeping accamadations are superb for a large group like an extended family. The kitchen had everything you could need. The bathrooms were well supplied and the showers had good volume and plenty of hot water. The fishing was great.

Incredible spot for family get-togethers.

This lodge is a fantastic spot to bring your outdoorsy relatives. Even though the weather during our stay was very cold, it was always warm back at the lodge. It’s incredibly spacious and clean, and the proximity to the hot springs is a huge plus! We would absolutely stay here when we visit again.

great place to celebrate graduation

Lucky Dog Lodge was a fantastic choice for us to stay while we celebrated our son's graduation from MSU. There was plenty of room for all of us. The kitchen was great for making big breakfasts. The only issue we had was there were no bedrooms on the first floor although we did know about this ahead of time.
