The Pitch: A Ski Lodge Bed Without Touching Your Decor
Some people get festive by hauling bins out of the attic. Others change their sheets. The Martha Stewart King Ski Village Sheet Set is for the second group.
See the King Ski Village Sheet Set at Target
It's a king-size set in 100% cotton flannel, printed with a cheerful Ski Village pattern in red, pink, and green on a white background. Put it on the bed and the room reads as winter cabin. You don't need to hang anything, rearrange anything, or explain anything to the guests.
It costs $79.99 at Target. That's the regular price. It isn't on sale, so think of it as a seasonal pick rather than a markdown.
What's in the King Set (and What to Verify Before You Buy)
Here's what we know from the product data and web research:
- Size: King
- Brand: Martha Stewart
- Material: 100% cotton flannel
- Pattern: Ski Village, red, pink, and green on a white ground
- Includes: Flat sheet, fitted sheet, and pillowcases
- Fitted sheet: All-around elastic with a 15-inch deep pocket
- Care: Machine washable
- Certification: OEKO-TEX certified, per the product specs
- Price: $79.99 at Target, with the regular and sale price the same
Before you buy, confirm these details on the live Target page:
- Dimensions and pillowcase count. Web research lists a 102 x 108-inch flat sheet, an 80 x 78-inch fitted sheet, and two 20 x 40-inch pillowcases. The affiliate product data doesn't state how many pillowcases are included, so check the listing.
- OEKO-TEX. The specs list the certification. Make sure it appears on the king listing itself.
- Price and availability. The listing appears to be fairly new, and both can change.
What the Print Actually Looks Like: Red, Pink, and Green on White
The product name ends in "Green," which suggests a solid green set. It isn't one. The background is white, and the Ski Village scene is printed over it in red, pink, and green.
The result looks more like a holiday sweater than a forest. If you want a moody, all-green bed, see the alternatives below.
Why It's Worth Considering: Flannel, Deep Pockets, Easy Care, OEKO-TEX
- Flannel is the point. 100% cotton flannel is made for cold nights. Crawling into it in January is a very different experience from sliding into crisp percale.
- The fitted sheet is built to stay put. It has all-around elastic and a 15-inch pocket, so it's designed to grip standard-depth mattresses securely.
- It's easy to care for. The set goes in the washing machine, with no special handling required.
- It's OEKO-TEX certified, per the specs. That suggests the textiles were tested against safety standards. Confirm it on the king page.
- It coordinates with other Martha Stewart bedding. You can build out the look with matching pieces from the broader collection, or keep it simple with a solid quilt or duvet on top.
What Buyers Say (Mostly About the Full Size, Not the King)
To be clear up front: the king listing on Target currently shows no customer reviews. There is no king-specific feedback yet.
There is feedback on the same print in other places:
- Target's Full Ski Village listing: Reviewers describe the sheets as soft, attractive, and well priced. Several say they've held up for multiple years, and one says the set still looked like new. This feedback is about the Full size, not the king.
- Home Depot's Ski Village listing: It describes a soft, deep-pocket, machine-washable 100% cotton flannel set. A displayed review calls the sheets beautiful and very soft, but the review sample is small.
- Martha Stewart's The Skylands sheets (a related collection): Reviewers mention some initial stiffness, some wrinkling, and pockets that could be deeper. Those comments are about a different product, but they're worth keeping in mind.
Who Should Skip It: Hot Sleepers, Thick Mattresses, and Wrinkle-Haters
- Hot sleepers and warm climates. Flannel is designed to be warm. If you already sleep with one foot outside the covers, this may be too much.
- Thick mattresses or heavy toppers. The fitted sheet's pocket is 15 inches deep. Mattresses thicker than that, or ones with a substantial topper, may not stay covered securely. Measure first.
- People who want a crisp, smooth bed. Flannel can wrinkle after washing. If a rumpled look bothers you, keep that in mind.
Is $79.99 a Good Price? Why This Is a Seasonal Pick, Not a Markdown
The regular price and the current price are both $79.99. There's no discount here, and we won't pretend otherwise.
The reason to buy now is timing. A ski-lodge print gets the most use during the holiday and winter months, so buying it as the season gets going gives you the longest stretch of cozy, festive nights. Check the live listing for any current Target Circle offers before you check out.
Alternatives: Other Ski Village Sizes and The Skylands Collection
- Ski Village in Twin, Full, or Queen. This is the same print in other sizes. The Full is where the positive reviews come from, and the Twin works well for kids' rooms or bunks.
- Martha Stewart The Skylands Collection. Choose this if you want green bedding that's less explicitly ski-themed. Its reviews praise softness and color, though some mention initial stiffness and shallower pockets.
- A deeper-pocket flannel set. If your mattress is thicker than 15 inches, look for a 100% cotton flannel set with a deeper pocket instead.
Good For: Guest Rooms, Cabins, and Gifts
- Guest rooms during the holidays. It makes visiting family feel welcome with one change of sheets.
- Cabins, vacation homes, and ski-themed rooms. This is exactly where the print belongs.
- Cold-weather everyday bedding. It's warm, washable, and not too precious to use.
- Gifts. It's a cozy present for anyone with a king bed who loves winter, or who just loves being warm.
- Layering. Pair it with a solid quilt, comforter, or duvet so the print gets the spotlight.
Bottom Line: Would We Buy It?
Yes, if your mattress is 15 inches deep or less, you sleep cool or run cold, and you want the bedroom to feel like winter without decorating. The flannel, deep-pocket fitted sheet, and machine-washable care make it practical. The print makes it fun. Reviews of the Full size are reassuring.
Keep the caveats in mind: the king listing has no reviews yet, and this is full price. Measure your mattress, confirm the pillowcase count and OEKO-TEX details on the live Target page, and check for any Target Circle offers. Then put it on the bed while the season is in full swing.
