The property felt secluded although it was close to shops and restaurants. Everything that you may need was provided. It was a very comfortable, modern, inviting environment. It made us feel like we were staying in our home away from home.

Best rental we have found in the area

This was one of the best VRBO's we have ever stayed in. It was spotless, comfortable and so well stocked it was amazing. The hot tub is an incredible bonus after being on the hill all day. It is close to the Cottonwood Canyons and bus stops for the ski hills. Highly recommend. We will for sure stay again when we get to SLC again.

This is a fantastic place to stay -- and the hot tub is AMAZING -- if you're looking to ski at a variety of Utah resorts. We went to Snowbasin, Alta, Brighton, and Solitude during our trip... all less than an hour away!

The Best Place To Stay

We come to SLC every year to ski and every year we stay at this VRBO. It is absolutely perfect! The location is convenient to ski everywhere, the property is perfectly (and thoughtfully) stocked. It is clean, well kept and has everything you need. The outside area and hot tub are private and lovely. The hosts are responsive and such wonderful folks. We cannot wait to come back again!

This location is excellent to Ski Cottonwood Canyons. We were able to cook a few items, rather than eat out every meal. The Hot tub was private and welcoming after a long day on the slopes.

Great Place, Especially for Skiing!

We had a wonderful experience! Jon and Karen were very personable and helpful with any of our questions. The place is beautifully decorated, with a well-appointed kitchen, very comfortable beds, lovely linens, wonderful shower, and boot/glove heaters. We particularly enjoyed the hot tub after a day of skiing with it's very powerful jets! It's also very convenient to drive to skiing or to a bus stop to go up either Little or Big Cottonwood Canyon.

Gorgeous Accommodations Right At The Mountains

My best and myself came to Utah to go hiking in the mountains for four days. The rental house was absolutely perfect. It was gorgeous and so clean. The hot tub was a perfect way to relax in the evenings and relax tired muscles. The sleeping arrangements were perfect for us; there are two queen beds in the bedroom. We are talking about making this an annual trip and have already decided that if it is available, we’re staying here again.

Best weekend ever!

We loved our stay in Sandy! The decor was beautiful and all the nice touches made it feel like a luxury stay and in a very private cozy setting. The owners were very attentive in making sure the hot tub was working properly and it was great to come back after a hike in the nearby canyon to the hot tub and fire pit . The young adults loved using the wii and the beds were comfy and we found everything we needed. Thanks so much! We will remember this getaway for the future

The BEST place for your ski trip!

My boyfriend and one of our best friends stayed here for almost a whole week to ski Snowbird mountain. we rented a car, parked in the designated spot in the driveway and had the perfect amount of space for us three in this unit. We used the hot tub every night and could even see the mountains a bit from there. 25 min drive to the ski resort, 2-5 min drive to anywhere you need in the area including coffee, grocery store, etc. 40ish min drive to Park City. the hosts were very welcoming and communicative, and I highly recommend this property for anyone’s trip out to Salt Lake!

Great location to explore Utah!

The property was ideally located for us. Only about 25 minutes to SLC and about 40 minutes to Brighton and Solitude mountains. It was our first time in Utah and we were there to ski and snowboard, so it couldn't have been better. Grocery stores, restaurants, coffee, etc. only minutes from property. The property was extremely clean and well stocked. Jon and Karen were very responsive and available to help us if we needed it. We felt secure and comfortable during our stay. We would definitely stay again. The hospitality and snow quality in Utah definitely lived up to the hype!

Awesome place to stay for skiing Alta/Snowbird

Place is exactly as described and the attention to detail from the owners is excellent. From the generous plush towels, coffee, and welcome snacks, to the wide array of cooking tools and a grill immediately outside the door; this is a place I'll return to when skiing in Utah. Great spa kept at perfect temperature was the icing on the cake after 2 days of skiing hard. Very quiet neighborhood so if you're wanting to party, this is not the place for you but this was the perfect spot for me and my son for a quick ski trip. There's also a park & ride location about a mile away to catch a ski bus which we did on the 2nd day to avoid the need to put on chains.
