Whether you’re closing the career chapter of your life and looking for a luxury retirement community, or a change of scenery as you grow your career, Yellowstone Club in Big Sky, Montana has a lot to offer.
Why Yellowstone Club is One of the Best Places to Live in Montana
Outdoor Activities in Yellowstone Club Montana
With access to one of the largest national parks in the U.S., access to private skiing, and year-round recreation, there’s no shortage of outdoor activities to choose from.
For skiers, a 5-mile stretch of Yellowstone Club shares a border with Big Sky ski, tying several lifts and ski runs directly into Big Sky Resort’s lift system. While on the lift, take in the surrounding 250,000 acres of the Gallatin National Forest.
It couldn’t be called resort living without a private golf course and residential club, could it? So, in addition to ski slopes, Yellowstone Club offers both. And, if you’re looking for a little variety, the Rocky Mountain Ski and Golf Club in eastern Madison County is a nearby option as well.
If the skiing, hiking and golf don’t appeal to you, maybe the opportunities for relaxation and rejuvenation are more your pace. Either way, here are some other reasons to consider making The Yellowstone Club your luxury retirement community, or resort community, of choice.
Reasons to Consider Living at The Yellowstone Club
- The Yellowstone Golf Club and Resort has sold nearly $1 billion in prime real estate in the last two years alone.
- It’s an elite lifestyle community, with a growing number of elite Yellowstone Club members, such as Bill Gates and Hollywood Producer, Peter Chernin.
- With 700 winter-time employees and 450 summertime employees, The Yellowstone club offers a true year-round resort living experience.
- Construction is booming. The New York Times estimates that 2,000 – 3,000 contractors commute into the Yellowstone Club each day to build homes, renovate lodges and break ground on new projects. Montana home builder, Stillwater Architecture, is one of the few approved Yellowstone Club architecture firms.
- You have the freedom to tap into your architectural style, whether it be the popular, traditional timber frame home with a mountain feel, or a trendy, modern home with sharp angles, glass and metal.
- The Yellowstone Club has chosen to place some mountain land, that was slated for development, into a conservation easement. It’s a win-win for conservationists and skiers, as this will allow the club to focus instead on building condos, duplexes and amenities near the base of Pioneer Mountain.
- What once was a caviar bar is now a delicious breakfast bar.
- Family-friendly activities at Yellowstone Club include basketball, games, a movie theater and more in the Warren Miller Lodge.
