Big Sky Town Center – Base Camp to Yellowstone
from Rainbow Ranch BS 23

Like a village plaza, the Big Sky Town Center is the natural gathering place of the area, where everyone comes together.
Big Sky Town Center is located in the ski and summer resort of Big Sky high in the Rocky Mountains of southwest Montana. Within the town of Big Sky, the Town Center is centrally located seven miles below Lone Mountain (and its two resorts) and at the turn-off to the renowned private communities of Spanish Peaks and Yellowstone Club.

The 165-acre walking village is surrounded by spectacular 11,000 ft. snow-capped peaks. Although the slopes look close enough to touch, they’re a few thousand feet above the shops and homes, giving you a milder living climate with mountain access just minutes away.
The casual pace of the Town Center, and all of Big Sky, is set by its residents and visitors. Here you’ll never feel rushed, and with the variety of shops and services, the Town Center provides the “Downtown” of this alpine community ... a central place bordered by flowerfilled meadows and dramatic peaks.
Town Center is probably the most desirable place to live in Big Sky, Montana, because the lower elevation of the meadow receives about 60 percent less snowfall.
The milder climate means spring comes earlier, fall stays later, and the summer lasts longer than on properties on the mountain. All of this creates more opportunities for year-round recreation right from your doorstep in Big Sky. Beautiful trails, fly-fishing, hiking, mountain biking, whitewater rafting, and, of course, the world-famous winter experience, are only a few of the Big Sky opportunities immediately available in the Town Center!
