Great SLC Ski Trip

The property was well-appointed and clean upon arrival, and our host was easy to reach whenever we had any questions. The beds were super comfy, the kitchen had all of the cooking implements anyone could need, and the location was hard to bear - just about 20 minutes to Alta and Snowbird! We look forward to staying here for many future ski trips!

Clean, comfortable, and convenient in Cottonwood Heights

We enjoyed a two week visit in Lisa‘s place in Cottonwood Heights. Newly renovated and clean, we enjoyed a well equipped kitchen and a great hot tub with a mountain view during our stay. Great location for easy access to both ski canyons. Nearby grocery store and good restaurants sealed the deal.

Roomy for all

House is close to grocery, which is convenient when you need to pick up some extras. The hot tub was great after our day of activities. Plenty of beds and bathrooms for all of us, we never felt crowded. Also plenty of parking and use of the garage. Welcome bottle of wine was a nice gift!

I incredible ski week in Utah

Great location for skier. Comes well stocked with spices and even aluminum foil. I even liked the pans. It has 3 showers, and the Jacuzzi was nice. Having a garage to pull into is a plus. The landlord is very quick to get back to you. I would definitely stay her again.

Graduation Celebration

This house and location are a gem. Amazing amenities and situated close to outdoor activities and about 20 min from the University of Utah. Communication was easy and clear and the extras were wonderful. I have stayed in over 20 vacation rentals and this is by far one of the top customer focused rentals I've experienced. We'll be back!

SMX Visit

We were in town for the Super motocross finals at Rice-Eccles stadium. From the start of looking for a place to stay, Lisa was very good to work with. All the information and pictures of this house were accurate. The neighborhood was very nice and a safe place to go for a walk as we did. Lots of shopping around the area and the grocery store was 2 blocks away. We would definitely stay at this place again. Thanks again Lisa for a memorable experience!

Great Host

This was by far one of the best stays we have ever had at a property. The pictures of the house speak for themself and did not disappoint in any way. The owners are what set this place way above any others. First off they are very easy to communicate with and answered any questions I had quickly. They also take it to the next level, each bathroom was fully stocked with any essentials we may have forgotten and some we hadn't even thought about like ChapStick. For the final touch the local chocolates and bread were amazing, and we were even asked our preference of spirits. We truly felt welcomed into this house and highly recommend this property, you wont be disappointed.

Best Ski/Snowboard rental near the Cottonwoods

There is not enough space to say how perfect this rental was. Felt like a home I’d be happy to live in forever. Location is incredible to hit up Big or Little cottonwood. We never got stuck in traffic on a powder day and we didn’t leave until 6:15-6:30am, it’s that close, especially to big cottonwood. Having the garage plus 2 dryers made loading dry gear stay dry and wet gear taken care of fast and ready for the next early morning. The private backyard and hot tub made every apres our own before going to dinner and some of the best memories are now in that backyard. Plenty of space for 5 adults and no fighting for the showers. Not to mention some of the most comfortable bedding we have had on our trips. Last but not least our hosts Lisa and Jim were amazing. They have thought of everything and provided every basic necessity incase you forgot anything. They reached out a week before the reservation and asked us if we had any questions or anything. Im not sure who did the shoveling but we arrived after a big storm and the driveway and walk ways were cleared upon arrival. Had the pleasure of meeting Lisa in person while she checked next door and she could not have been more sweet. Upon return to the cottonwoods I hope this property is available again.

Great Place in the Best Location!

Kevin is a great host! Super responsive when I texted him asking for more bath towels and such. He called me a couple of days prior to our trip to make sure I knew how everything worked. A really excellent host. Also, the location of the host is unbeatable. It really is only a 20-30 minute drive to any of the mountains in either the Big or Little Cottonwood Canyons. Made for getting to the all the mountains before the lifts opened a breeze. 5 turns and you’re in the Big Cottonwood Canyon. 3 turns and you’re on the road to the Little Cottonwood. Even if you have to go over to the Park City side, there’s quick and easy access. There’s a grocery store a literal 1 minute drive from the house so if you forgot something, you can easily go get it. Super convenient.
