About this property
Luxury and Location in this Incredible Home with Brand New Outdoor Hot Tub and 2 Car Garage!
The Nicholson Chalet (formerly known as The Chalet Day Johns) is a majestic 8-bedroom, 9-bathroom ski-in chalet with large brand new outdoor hot tub and firepit and two-car garage. Enjoy being outdoors, apres ski, in the hot tub after that perfect powder day with unsurpassed view of Alta's ski slopes and the Little Cottonwood Canyon.
This stunning and spacious 6,800 square foot Alta chalet is perfect for large families, groups of friends, and corporate teams looking for space, privacy and a prime location near the slopes of Alta Ski Area and Snowbird Resort. The Nicholson Chalet is a short walk to the Alta ski lifts and you can ski right back to the house. For a day on the slopes of Snowbird, you're only a short, free shuttle ride away.
The Nicholson Chalet is comparable to an intimate boutique hotel! This exceptional Alta ski chalet boasts five fireplaces, a large outdoor hot tub, a formal great room, a homey entertainment room with large screen television, and a convenient ski room with boot/glove dryers. The gourmet kitchen and spacious dining area are thoughtfully equipped and curated to cater for large groups.
The Nicholson Chalet is the ultimate Alta getaway for a large group gathering with 8 ensuite bedrooms all with high thread count linens, and space and privacy for each and every guest. The chalet also has a two-car garage, free WiFi, and two washers and dryers for guest convenience.

How do I get from The Chalet Day Johns to Alta and Snowbird? The Chalet Day Johns is located very close to where the Bypass Road rejoins the State Highway 210 (the main road), below the Alta Peruvian Lodge. To get to Alta from this home, you have a couple of easy options. You can walk to the Alta Peruvian Lodge and from there ski across the cat track over to the lifts. You can also jump on the free Alta Resort Shuttle which makes a continuous loop of the Bypass Road during daytime hours. The shuttle runs continuously during the day. It will typically take just a few minutes to get up to the Collins or Sunnyside base areas at Alta. After skiing, you can utilize this same shuttle to bring you back to the property or you can ski home from Alta as well by accessing the Wildcat Access area and crossing the snowbridge back to the Peruvian Acres neighborhoods.
To get to Snowbird to go skiing, you would just take that Alta Resort Shuttle to The View Condominiums stop to ski down the intermediate “Whodunnit” run to Snowbird. At the end of the day, you can return to that same location to hop back on the Resort Shuttle to go back to The Chalet Day Johns.
Important note: Alta Resort Shuttle runs mid-December to early April.

About the area
Sandy
Located in Sandy, this holiday home is in the mountains. Snowbird Ski Resort and Alta Ski Area are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those in the mood for shopping can visit Main Street. Looking to enjoy an event or a game while in town? See what's happening at Bear Hollow Sports Park or Utah Olympic Park. Make sure you get close to the area's animals with activities such as game walks and birdwatching.
