Welcome to Gambler Chalet, your ski-in/ski-out escape in the heart of Big Sky.
Imagine waking up, clicking into your skis, and heading straight to the Iron Horse Lift without ever getting in a car. That is exactly what this place offers. Nestled in Saddle Ridge, this stunning 2-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom townhome sits right at the crossroads of Big Sky Resort and Moonlight Basin, giving you access to some of the best skiing in the world right from your front door.
Step inside and you will immediately feel the warmth of the rustic hardwood floors and cozy furnishings. The main level opens up into a vaulted great room with a gas fireplace that practically begs you to slow down and settle in. The kitchen, dining area, and breakfast bar make it easy to cook together and gather around the table after a long day on the mountain. When the weather cooperates, step out onto the deck and fire up the gas grill while you take in the sweeping mountain views. It does not get much better than that.
Upstairs, the master suite is your private retreat with a king bed and its own full bathroom. Head downstairs and you will find the second bedroom suite, complete with a queen bed, twin bunk beds, and its own private bath. There is also a full size pullout couch for extra guests, making this place work beautifully for families, couples, or a small group of friends.
And then there is the hot tub. Tucked onto the lower level deck with views of Lone Peak and the Big Sky Valley, it is the kind of thing you think about all day on the slopes knowing it is waiting for you when you get back. A cold beer, sore legs, and a front row seat to one of the most beautiful views in Montana. You will not want to leave.
Gambler Chalet is not just a place to sleep. It is the reason the whole trip is worth it.
Winter
Big Sky Resort is the biggest skiing in America, and it earns that title every single year. With 5,800 skiable acres, 4,350 feet of vertical drop, and an average of 400+ inches of snowfall annually, it delivers for every level of skier and rider. When you are ready to step off the slopes, the historic Lone Mountain Ranch has 85+ kilometers of groomed Nordic trails through the wilderness, voted the #1 cross-country ski resort in North America. Beyond that, Yellowstone National Park, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, dog sledding, ice fishing, and world-class spa experiences are all within easy reach.
Summer
The mountains do not slow down when the snow melts. Within minutes you have world-class fly fishing, river rafting, golf, hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, and zip-lining at your doorstep. Follow the scenic Gallatin River along historic Highway 191 and you are at the west entrance of Yellowstone National Park in just 45 minutes. Stay long enough and you will find free concerts, farmers markets, and weekly events scattered throughout the season.

We had a wonderful week at the Gambler condo! Everything was perfect in the condo + we had an amazing 11" of fresh snow. Stay Montana checked in with us to make sure all of our needs were met. They even brought us a new snow shovel within hours of our request. The condo was clean, stocked well & the hot tub grill made our stay even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this location. A+ Stay Montana!
Loved it.

Our family had such a great time in Big Sky- the condo was perfect, the weather and views were amazing and there were a ton of activities for the kids from swimming & zip lining to whitewater rafting and much more we didn't get a chance to do. Previous Property Manager from Saddle Ridge Rentals was awesome - from renting the condo to helping us during our stay every email was answered promptly and professionally. Thank you again!

Excellent property as described. great amenities including everything you need in the kitchen as well as a sled in the closet. only minor issue is that there is a very short walk to get to and from slopes but really not a big deal. Condo is on moonlight basin side, which we felt was nicer than the Big Sky base area.

This rental unit was perfect. It was spotlessly clean and amply supplied with everything we needed. Previous Property Manager included links to significantly discounted services like vehicle rental, grocery delivery and ski rentals. The furniture and beds were fresh and comfortable. I will be back!

This was a great home for the four of us. We didn't spend much time there with all the activities in the area we enjoyed. The home was very spacious, clean, and the western look made us feel like we were in Montana. Being from an area that is very hot and humid in the summer, we really enjoyed siting out on the deck and breathing the fresh air. We had everything we needed to enjoy our stay and would highly recommend this home. Thanks for a great stay in Montana.

We would like you to know what a great management company you have for your property. When we arrived to your townhouse it was spotless. When we had a few minor issues, the management company responded so promptly to our requests. Their manner in handling the issues was so friendly, and they wanted to make sure that we were satisfied with everything they did. We have stayed in a lot of rental homes and yours was one of the most updated and well furnished weve been in, and it was also one of the most helpful

It was great to meet you and chat today. Thanks to you both for the accommodations this week. The condominium was very comfortable and the perfect getaway for us this past week. The hot tub was perfect after a day of exploring the mountain. Ann, Ben, Will and I had a fantastic week of skiing, eating and relaxing at Big Sky and Moonlight Basin. Our favorite for dinner was the Rainbow Ranch (Michelangelos was excellent as well). We took in most of the mountain taking on The Gullies, Alder Gulch, the A toZ Chu

Thank you guys so much! We had a great time. The property was clean and ready for us. It was just as expected from the description and was a great location to the slopes! We actually missed our flight due to TSA shortage with the government shutdown and got to Big Sky much later than expected so being able to go straight to the property and have the key in the lock box was great and made everything easy! We were very pleased and loved the skiing in Big Sky, so I know we will be back and will look first with

Saddle Ridge C4 was the perfect vacation spot for my family! Incredibly easy access to the slopes, with perfect accommodations. Relaxing in the hot tub after a day of skiing was a great way to unwind especially with a view of the mountain. The fire place and updated interior were the icing on the cake. Previous Property Manager was extremely helpful and provided a lot of information about local options for food/dining. Her quick response time and attention to detail make it an easy choice for us that we wil

Cant say enough of how incredible this townhome is! Location location location!!! Steps from the slopes - two lifts directly outside your door. The Samuels went above and beyond to provide us all the info needed with informative emails. The information provided in the cabin for options for dinners and how to operate everything from the heat, fireplace, hot tub etc couldnt of been more detailed. The hot tub that is ideally located on a covered porch, with slope Mountain Views, was the icing on the cake after

We had a great time at Saddle Ridge C4. Awesome location, very easy to get to any part of the mountain, especially easy to get home from the base by taking the Swift Current lift. Our place was perfect for the 5 of us. Views were outstanding, rooms were good size. Overall no complaints. We will definitely be back now that we are familiar with the resort.

Amazing property in the mountains perfect for our family of 5. We absolutely loved our stay in C-4 Saddleridge. Beautiful home and amazing views. This home had everything you could ask for in a condo rental and more. The owners were generous with extra supplies (paper goods/soap/laundry). The beds were comfortable and slept everyone in our family of 5 in an actual bed- not a pull out. Upon arrival there was a welcome basket and plenty of reading material about the surrounding areas and local attraction even

We had a fantastic time skiing Big Sky. We will most definitely return and when we do will again stay in Moonlight Basin. Less hectic than Big Sky base area yet still provides access to everything the mountain has to offer. Our Saddle Ridge rental met all our needs; great ski in/ski out location, wonderfully decorated and fully equipped. Previous Property Managers check all the boxes ... so hospitable and professional! Great way to experience Big Sky skiing for the first time.

Great Property! We booked this particular Property at the last minute due to a last minute cancellation of the property we booked in Jackson, Wyoming. Needless to say, our family was more than happy we ended up at this Vacation Property in Big Sky. The owners had left the place very clean and stocked with everything you would need for a week stay. We very much enjoyed the accommodations and would definitely stay here again on our next visit to Big Sky!

This townhome nestled in Moonlight Basin was the perfect spot for our family to spend Christmas. Its cozy atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The Moonlight location is beautiful. Our view was absolutely stunning. We enjoyed being able to see the moon from our hot tub in the evening after a nice day out on the slopes. As someone who loves to cook, I appreciated the good cookware in the kitchen. Our boys loved having easy access to the slopes with ski in ski out right beside iron horse lift. One of the best pa

Just wanted to say that we enjoyed our stay at your property for the week. Doing ski-in, ski-out for the first time was great and the home was setup just right for what we needed. Also, thanks for the gift basket. We forgot to bring hand warmers with us and my wife was delighted that you provided them. Well definitely look at coming back to Big Sky and will look at renting through you again.

While we have stayed with you a half dozen times or more, we have not stayed in this unit before as we are usually a bigger group. It fit our needs for 4 people well. We always appreciate the well-functioning hot tubs and grills.
