HOME SHARE
Your property might not be appropriate for a long-term rental, but you can still make a difference. By lending your home to Big Sky Community Housing Trust for a week (or more), you allow other unit owners who commit to a year-long lease to still visit Big Sky.
The visiting owner borrowing your home pays $500 per week to cover cleaning fees. Staying in an upscale unit, possibly on the mountain with amenities, appeals to condo owners in older units.

HOME SHARE is only offered on a first-come, first-serve basis to homeowners participating in RENT LOCAL for a minimum of one year. Holidays and other peak travel times may be difficult to accommodate. The max annual allowance for HOME SHARE is four weeks. Homeowners may request to break up their four weeks throughout the year or visit consecutively. Visits of three to four consecutive weeks may be more difficult to accommodate. BSCHT asks HOME SHARE participants to book at least one week per visit; we cannot accommodate multiple long-weekend visits throughout the year.
To reserve HOME SHARE dates: please click the button below to email your requested dates. BSCHT will check on availability with the property owner. Please allow a minimum of one week to receive approval on any date requests, and wait to purchase any travel arrangements until dates have been reserved. Once reserved, there is no guarantee that date changes can be accommodated. All requests are subject to availability.
