This resort has only 12 locations worldwide. Kidd said Big Sky’s development will include many unique features that will be available to the public.
Kidd said more than 40 contractors are working on the project across Montana, from Billings to Bozeman and Helena to Great Falls.
Lone Mountain Land Company says all 62 homes on the site will be built sustainably and will be LEAD certified.
According to the One&Only Moonlight Basin website, the resort features designer spaces by architect Olson Kundig, featuring local art and floor-to-ceiling windows.
