Alpine wilderness refuge
Ski bibs and cashmere mingle by roaring fires, balancing quiet residential seclusion with the drama of the Greater Yellowstone wilderness.
“The layout is well planned: The bedroom-lounge occupies most of the footprint and the kitchen and bathroom are set to either side.”
What it’s good at

Set across roughly 240 acres, the 92-key retreat pairs Olson Kundig’s striking glass-and-timber architecture with sweeping views of Lone Peak.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
A private heated gondola connects directly to Big Sky slopes, while Yellowstone National Park sits an hour south.
The rooms
Every room features a stone fireplace, deep soaking tub, and a walk-in gear closet designed for ski boots and waders.
The pool and onsen
Bring a swimsuit.
A cantilevered indoor-outdoor saltwater lap pool opens to the pine woods, flanked by outdoor heated soaking tubs.
The spa
Soak slowly.
Eight wood-paneled treatment rooms host therapies from Augustinus Bader, beside quiet relaxation loungers overlooking the pine woods.
The gym and studio
Floor-to-ceiling glass wraps the fitness center and timber yoga studio, looking straight out at rugged mountain crests.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Wildwood serves Montana elk and river trout, and Akira Back prepares Japanese-Korean dishes beneath mountain panoramas.
The entire hotel feels very residential: Even the smallest of the rooms, which start at 721 square feet, feature a fireplace and private balcony.
How it began
Opened in late 2025, the retreat represents One&Only's United States debut and the brand's inaugural foray into alpine hospitality.
“The opening of One&Only Moonlight Basin expands the focus from just the outdoors to thoughtfully designed interiors – all the while honouring Montana’s greatest gift: the landscape.”
