Real Estate and Homes
Spanish Peaks offers a broad range of property types, from condominiums near the Clubhouse to expansive custom estates on multi-acre parcels.
Condominiums and Townhomes: Located near the Clubhouse and Montage Big Sky, these offer a lower-maintenance entry point into the club. Many have rental potential through the Montage program.
Single-Family Homes: Custom mountain homes throughout the community, designed to club architectural standards. These properties offer views of the golf course, Lone Mountain, or the Spanish Peaks range.
Homesites: Vacant parcels for ground-up custom builds. Sites are available across various settings, from golf course frontage to forested ridge-top locations with long-range views.
Montage Branded Residences: Montage Big Sky includes branded real estate opportunities, where owners have access to the resort's full service and amenities program. This appeals to buyers who want hotel-level services with the privacy of a residence.
Local Tip: Spanish Peaks membership is tied to property ownership. When you buy, you become a member. This makes it more accessible than clubs that require separate sponsorship processes.
Lifestyle and Local Highlights
Golf is the centerpiece of Spanish Peaks in summer. The Weiskopf course plays through meadows and forest with elevation changes that make every hole feel different. The 10-hole par-3 course is a welcome addition for families, casual rounds, or days when you want to play but not commit to a full 18.
In winter, the ski access is seamless. The community's own chairlift connects directly to Big Sky Resort's trail network, so members can be on the mountain within minutes of leaving home.
The Clubhouse is the social hub. Fine dining, a full fitness center, an outdoor pool, hot tubs, and locker rooms give members a private gathering space that feels elevated without being stuffy. Events, holiday celebrations, and member programming run throughout the year.
Montage Big Sky adds another layer of amenities. The resort offers spa treatments, additional dining options, and a level of hospitality that benefits the entire community. Owners of Montage-branded residences get access to the hotel's services, including housekeeping, concierge, and rental management.
Fish Camp is a standout amenity. Members can access guided trips on the Gallatin River, fly casting lessons, and streamside dining during the summer months. It's one of the features that distinguishes Spanish Peaks from other mountain clubs in the region.
