We stayed in Building D the furthest from the ski resort but still super close about a 150 yard walk to the resort the Huntley. This condo was perfect! Kitchen was fully stocked with a regular sized fridge and stove and microwave. The heater was on point! Overall a 10 out of 10! We will be coming back here soon!

Ski studio
The studio was in a good location to enjoy Big Sky skiing. The unit could use updating but everything worked well. The description and pictures were vague and inconsistent, but no complaints about the outcome except parking is limited: weekend nights we had to park 2 blgs away. Only key suggestion: local street was not plowed well enough so it was a challenge driving or parking a small front-wheel-drive car near the unit. In Jan2020.

We booked at the still water condos and I thought I was getting a place that slept 6 with air conditioning. And we got a little tiny basement suite with no bedrooms just a tiny Murphy bed in the wall and no air conditioning it was so hot and horrible smell coming out of the kitchen sink. I complained and they moved us to the Huntley hotel which was amazing!!! And 100.00 a night cheaper than the still water. I feel I should of been reimbursed some money though

Absolutely nothing was to like. Walked into the room and immediately walked out and did not stay. Was not offered a refund only the opportunity to pay for another room and stay. Decided to drive 2 hours instead of stay in that dump.

Not good service
Our check-in at the Huntley hotel was late because our room at the Stillwater Condo was not ready. The bellhop at the Huntley Hotal did not even store our luggage in the storeroom. He just left outside by the front door. Good thing it was not lost. It seemed that they have different treatment for different guests. Better watch who you are if you go there. The condo is dated and does not have ground coffee or sugar. The living room electrical heater does not work. I have to use the fireplace to heat up the room when I sleep in the sofa bed in the living room at night. The condo does have a good view of the mountain and it is very closed to the mountain village. I would not go back there if I have other choice.

Older than expected, but still nice.
We stayed in a studio unit. The room had everything as promised, but it was much older than expected. It was a bit pricy for not having been renovated in the past few decades. The location was definitely great. You're a quick walk from the base.

A pleasant stay
I had a work conference at Big Sky and the rooms at the resort in my price range were all booked. These condominiums were very close to the resort and had everything I needed. It's not overly luxurious, but I found everything to be comfortable. The studios are not designed for families, but if it were just myself or me and my wife going, I would certainly stay there again.

We stayed in a condo connected to the hotel.
Our condo had all the amenities we asked for, although it wasn't even stocked with one salt shaker that was full. The unit is in need of a renovation. I slept in the bedroom on the lumpiest bed I've ever seen and it was soft and not good for my back. A "curtain" only blocked 2/3 of the window with lights outside. At least they could afford a full, modern drape or curtain. The faucet for the shower needs urgent replacement as it just spins and spins with no effect. One needs to apply heavy pressure to it to turn the water off. Once on, the shower was very good. A natural twig and flower arrangement hangs over the bed and looks like a dust collector. My nose ran constantly in that room. My friend slept on the couch without pulling out the sleeper bed. He's younger and flexible and was able to sleep well. We were there very little as we were there to see the eclipse far away, so all was tolerated. Had we stayed there longer, I would have requested a change in venue if it were possible, but we had our own good time. It was helpful to get coffee at the restaurant to start our days. Please don't post this review. It's for owner and management. Thanks for reading.

Beautiful view
Pros - It was 48 miles from the West entrance of Yellowstone National Park. The drive was beautiful between the town and Yellowstone. Saw lots of wildlife during the drive and around the condo. Cons - There was dried food on the counter in the kitchen and the silverware that was in the drawer wasn't totally clean. The furniture needed to be dusted. There was still paperwork on the kitchen counter from the last person that had stayed there.

Stillwater Condominiums need to change there photo to something out of the early 70s that is not clean. Beds were hard as a rock and sheets in the loft were filthy. I will never bring my family to Big Sky Resort again. Waking up at 2:00 in the morning to a party was the tip of the iceberg.

Stillwater Condominiums - Big Sky
Booked this before I read the many bad reviews and was really nervous about what we would find. Turns out our condominium (1036) was really nice. These are older condos, so you can't expect the Taj Mahal. Ran into some other people staying there and they said theirs was nice too. Great view, mountain creek running out back, clean, comfy. Drive up the hill to check in, no problem. Pool, exercise room, restaurants and shopping all within walking distance. We stayed during a summer vacation to Yellowstone, only about an hour from the gate. $200/night - recommend!

Caution! Buyer beware!
We booked this place for 4 adults and 2 kids, as it was the only affordable accommodation anywhere near Yellowstone. Check in personnel were friendly, once we found them. In the condo, the facilities seemed older but workable. In the evening, we tried to put the kids to sleep on the sofa bed, but instantly discovered a huge leak in the inflatable mattress. As it was late, we made beds on the floor for them with the extra blankets in the place (which weren't terribly clean). Next morning, we tried to make coffee in the coffeemaker, and discovered about a 1 inch hole in the bottom of the glass coffee pot. So we gave up on coffee and started to cook breakfast, whereupon we discovered that the dishes in the cupboard were not clean, and we had to wash everything before we could use it. There was dried egg on at least one plate and the glasses smelled like fish. I did call to report the problems, but, though the person at the desk sounded sympathetic, nothing at all was done to rectify anything. Upon checkout, I repeated the complaints, but again, got only sympathy and nothing concrete. I would be very cautious about booking this place, as it ranks about the same as Motel 6, only for about 4-5 times the price.

Overall rate is one and a half
Difficult to find! We arrived there late and got lost, our GFS didn't work well. The condo contact number is only during business hours, nobody could help. Had to ask people around for direction. Luckily, people there at the gas station was nice! The Check-in hotel is a different area, had to walk further up to the gravel ground about 5 minutes from the condo, lighting outside was not good, dark and no information. The hotel staff is nice and friendly, wish we stayed in that hotel. Our room is spacious with complete kitchen and sitting room/dining. It's old, smelly and needs updating. The cupboards/cabinets handles are sticky. The linens are smelly, pillows lumpy and uncomfortable. The heater stinks when turned on. If you book a room, get the upstairs room, although there is no elevator. The noise kept us awake all night. The only good thing is the free wifi, good internet connection. And the area around is very nice!
