Enjoyed Thanksgiving here
Excellent experience with owner via vrbo, very quick to answer questions, polite and accommodating. We wanted to have Thanksgiving dinner here and they were fine with that, asking only that we limit noise outside late at night, no odd requests like some other places. One of our best rental experiences. The kids enjoyed the air hockey, plenty of room, everything was in good condition. The little cabin in the back is interesting. There are quite a few cacti which was evident when booking and I was concerned about, but no issues as they're mostly out of the way.

Amazing week at this VRBO
I stayed here with 4 of my friends, and we had a wonderful stay! The property manager was responsive, if any issues/questions arose. There was a good amount of space for just the 4 of us (even extra beds/rooms). The location was incredible, we were able to easily get to different hikes while only about 20 mins from downtown Salt Lake City. Park city was about 30-35 mins away. We enjoyed using the gorgeous patio out back. The home was clean, well decorated, had useful amenities, and was easy to find. Close by to gas stations, food places, and grocery stores. It was very convenient, comfortable and homey! I would definitely recommend staying here if you are in the area.

Home away from home
The house was AMAZING! Better than advertised. Comfortable beds, cozy home, back yard is huge and private, games to play inside and outside, and sits in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood near the mountains. We probably wouldnt stay anywhere else if we go back to SLC. Host responds quickly and made sure we were taken care of.

Review
Our flights were delayed and we were exhausted from a really long day of travel. We were really looking forward to going to bed and realized no beds had any sheets on them. We had to find the sheets and then figure out which sheets fit which beds because they’re all different sizes. To say we were irritated was an under statement. We travel a lot and we’ve never stayed somewhere where the beds weren’t made. The master bed is like a lumpy sponge which was totally uncomfortable and made sleeping difficult. I made breakfast and went to put the dishes in the dishwasher and found a whole load of dirty dishes. Gross. No paper towels, napkins, or Kleenex. The coffee maker had old grounds in it. The vacuum and cleaning stuff were left out. The silverware was hard to find. It’s not in the kitchen. It’s kept in the dining room. The house smells musty. On the positive side, the location was great and we enjoyed the porch.

Quiet, well-stocked home provides a comfortable getaway.
This home was clean, quiet, and comfortable. The kitchen is well-stocked with dishes, cookware, and lots of cooking utensils. Bedding linens and towels are plentiful. A washer and dryer are so convenient. Wal-Mart and other shopping is a short drive away. The backyard has a lovely covered patio with a grill and adirondack chairs. We were very happy with our stay, and would stay here again.

Family Ski Trip
Has been 20 years since all my siblings gathered for skiing in SLC. This time we brought several of our kids (ages 16-63) for a family of 7. The house setup was perfect for us with lots of room to sleep, 2 baths, big living room and dining room to gather around. Was topped off by its perfect location to the ski areas and the hot tub to soak in after our days of skiing. House was well stocked, clean and worked perfectly for our family. Looking forward to coming back again.

Great home base for a ski weekend
My daughter and I stayed here for a getaway ski weekend. It’s a cozy, clean, well appointed home and has easy access to the Cottonwood Canyons. The owners were very responsive and getting in and out was a breeze. It’s a great spot and a great value. Plenty of room for a larger group as well. Highly recommended.

Great location nice home
We had a good stay at this home during Christmas time. The home has a lot of green plants with nice decoration and lots of games, kitchenware has a good collection of things we need for cooking. It would be nice if the supplies could be a little bit more ( example: trash bags and dish washer pods for people book longer stays) The host is remote but he can resolve the issue we communicated in a timely manner. Overall very good house nice and clean in a quiet neighborhood within short distance to ski resort.

Fun house
The house was the perfect setting for my visit to Utah to visit my siblings and have them over for family dinners and visiting. The cactus plants were a little scary with young children but otherwise the house was very well suited for kids including the games and entertainment provided. There were plenty of blankets and linens and the beds were cozy. The location was perfect for sighseeing, dinners, groceries, hiking and really central to much of what Utah has to offer. We would definitely stay here again!

Cozy, comfortable stay
We stayed for a few days, looking for a cozy relaxing place to take a break from a cross-country road trip. This house was perfect. Cozy, comfortable, and clean with the amenities we would want to relax. It was close enough to SLC's attractions that we were able to check out the area by day, and enough to do at the house that we weren't bored.
