Editor s Note: We know COVID-19 is continuing to impact your travel plans. As of April 2021, official guidance from the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention states that fully vaccinated people can travel at low risk, though safety precautions are still required. Should you need to travel, be sure to familiarize yourself with as well as local requirements/protocols/restrictions for both your destination and home city upon your return. Be safe out there.
Despite the challenges, many are starting to think about a return to travel in the not too distant future. Still, Paris or New York might not be first on the list for many people searching for travel that will allow them to maintain some social distancing.
BIG SKY, Mont. â Big Sky Resort and world-renowned Bozeman mountaineer Conrad Anker have teamed up with Airbnb to list the 5,850 acres of Lone Mountain to some lucky guests.
According to Airbnb, Montana was the top trending summer destination based on nights booked for summer 2021 in March with searches to Big Sky up 72%.
Montana itself is becoming one of the fastest-growing states in terms of Airbnb search volume from 2019 to now, and âwishlistsâ on Airbnb featuring keywords mountain, hiking, or rural in their title increased 68% in the last year.
Because of the new hotspot destination, Big Sky Resort decided to turn the Everettâs 8800 on the Andesite Mountain, which was closed all of the 2020-2021 ski season due to COVID-19, into an Airbnb destination.
