A queen sleeper sofa offers additional sleeping space, and two beautiful bathrooms make getting ready a treat.
After a day of work or play, step out into the lush, private backyard and soak your cares away in the 6-person hot tub. Our home is also dog-friendly, featuring a fully-fenced yard for your four-legged friends to enjoy (a $100 pet fee applies).

Known for “The Greatest Snow on Earth,” the Salt Lake area is home to some of the best outdoor destinations on the planet. You're just a short drive from numerous world-class ski resorts, including Snowbird, Alta, and Park City (all within 23-30 miles). Other nearby points of interest like Temple Square, Historic Sugarhouse, and Red Butte Gardens are all within a few miles.
Getting Around
The Salt Lake International Airport (SLC) is a convenient 15-minute drive (8 miles) away. While some attractions are nearby, we recommend having a car to best explore the city and the beautiful Wasatch Front canyons.

About the host
Hosted by Paige Paulsen
Living in Utah is perfect for me because my family is here and I love the outdoors. I bike and play tennis in the summers, cross-country ski in the winter and hike and play pickle ball all year long.
I am licensed as a CPA and an accounting professor at Salt Lake Community College. I have a small business called Holistic Accounting where I not only do accounting for individuals and small businesses but I work with people and their money issues.

Why they chose this property
I bought this house specifically to rent out as a vacation property. This is the only house I have so I've made sure it's nice. I have enjoyed using my creative energy in decorating it. I have poured my love and nurturing into caring for this home and preparing it for each guest. This is the kind of house I would like to stay in if I were visiting Salt Lake. I like the location of this home because it provides quick access to pretty much everything I am interested in doing.
What makes this property unique
Located near downtown, the famous Sugarhouse Shopping District, Liberty Park, a Dog Park, Trolley Square, the 7th East thoroughfare, restaurants, Costco, yoga studio, walking paths and many more places of interest.
