Marking One&Only’s milestone debut in the United States and its first alpine Resort and community of Private Homes, One&Only Moonlight Basin is now open. Framed by the majestic peaks of Big Sky, and anchored by two private lakes, the resort is located within the picturesque Moonlight Basin community, situated on 240 secluded acres, and bordered by more than 17,000 acres of permanently protected land.
Just an hour from Bozeman and adjacent to Yellowstone National Park, One&Only Moonlight Basin welcomes guests to an impeccable collection of alpine-chic rooms, suites, cabins, and Private Homes, each designed and crafted to honor Montana’s breathtaking vistas. Redefining the nation’s standard for ultra-luxury hospitality and developed in partnership with Lone Mountain Land Company, One&Only Moonlight Basin marries bespoke outdoor adventures, exceptional culinary programming and unparalleled wellness experiences, to deliver a front-row seat to Montana’s untamed wilderness.
MONTANA MOUNTAIN ETHOS Hidden among the trees, One&Only Moonlight Basin was intentionally designed as a low-rise development, allowing nature to take center stage and reflecting the region’s rugged beauty, local materials and artwork thoughtfully throughout the resort. Designed by the world-renowned architect Tom Kundig of Olson Kundig, the resort brings scene-setting design throughout the rooms, suites, cabins and Private Homes.
The resort’s Main Lodge, East Lodge and West Lodge are comprised of guest rooms, interconnecting family rooms, and spacious king suites with separate living areas. Crafted to make entertaining effortless, the one-of-a-kind Big Sky Suite features a wraparound terrace with an outdoor soaking tub and panoramic views. Set amidst the alpine landscape, freestanding cabins offer additional space and seclusion, with a private outdoor soaking tub and sitting area beside a cozy fire pit.
Epitomizing modern mountain living, One&Only Moonlight Basin’s four- to six-bedroom Private Homes offer an elevated residential experience, each coalescing naturally with the dramatic façade, showcasing breathtaking views of Big Sky’s iconic forests and snow-capped peaks. Designed for alfresco living, indoor and outdoor living spaces are complete with fire pits, hot tubs, and gourmet kitchens, and each home features convenient garage access, blending the comforts of a luxury residence with the resort’s extraordinary setting and experiences.
NATURE’S BOUNTY Led by Executive Chef Matt Dahlkemper, a bold new vision of alpine dining unfolds at One&Only Moonlight Bain, where seasonality, creativity, and local provenance shape every plate. Eclectic American comfort food meets imaginative alpine cuisine at The Landing, located in the Sky Lodge just steps from One&Only Gondola, and nourishing ranch-to-table delicacies are served at Wildwood in the Main Lodge, where daily breakfast is a feast for all five senses. In partnership with culinary global leader and former professional snowboarder, modern Japanese restaurant Akira Back brings the bold flavors and creative edge of the Michelin-starred chef to Big Sky.
In the Main Lodge, Dear Josephine is an intimate cocktail bar that reminisces and honors Montana’s Prohibition era, inspired by enterprising female bootlegger and moonshiner of the late 1800s, Josephine Doody. Tucked away in the woods, Moonshack is a speakeasy-style cabin that serves the finest of whiskeys with a menu of 25 cigars from the best makers in the world. A grab-and-go at the Sky Lodge serves freshly brewed coffee and delicious pastries, while Montana-Mexican fare and delicious cocktails are available to order poolside.

In winter, the heated One&Only Gondola transports guests directly from the resort to Big Sky Resort’s Madison Base in only five minutes, and on property more than 15 miles of groomed and ungroomed trails for guided snowshoeing, fat tire biking, and Nordic skiing weave throughout the resort’s fragrant pine forests and atop rugged mountain crests. When the snow melts, Moonlight Basin’s intricate trail network is a delightful setting for guided hiking and mountain biking, and guests can master the art of casting at Lee’s Pools, two private alpine lakes where native trout roam and stand-up paddle board rentals await.
