Outstanding location
This is our groups third stay here in four years and never disappoints. Plenty of space and beds for everyone and the hot tub is an added plus after long day of skiing. Although we cooked in most nights, the local area has many good dining choices. Our caretaker Whiskey is always on hand to address any issues or share with you a great local dining spot! Thanks Peter for sharing your home with us!!

Amazing place, amazing view
We needed a place for family to gather for the week leading up to our daughters wedding. The house was perfect for a large group-lots of bedrooms and bathrooms and space to spread out. The kitchen was well stocked to prepare meals for large groups and the view from the hot tub was fantastic. The yard made for gorgeous pre-wedding photos and we had a few deer wander through. Whiskey was great-he was available to help or answer questions if needed, but was otherwise completely unobtrusive and you wouldn't even know he was there. The master bathroom was perfect for the bride and bridesmaids to get ready. Only suggestion would be to add an outdoor table for the patio near the hot tub. Loved this place!

Guys ski trip
A group of 10 guys, dads and sons, perfect location for skiing little and big cottonwood canyons and also easy access to Park City and for a day trip to Snow Basin. Great lay out and well stocked kitchen as we cooked all our meals. The property manager was readily available and very accommodating. We will for sure rent this home again
