Horseback riding, fly fishing, biking, and hiking make Big Sky almost as popular in summer as it is in winter. This also means that there are plenty of options as far as hotels and rental condos in the area. Big Sky has everything from basic slope-side rentals to luxurious inns with full service spas and world-class restaurants. There are events for the family most weekends, as well as live music and a lively after-ski scene.
