Mountain View Retreat: 2 BR/2 BA Spacious & Cozy!

Nestled in the Bountiful foothills, you'll love the private entrance to your own full walkout basement apartment. Over 1,500 sq ft. Tranquil and wooded backyard with occasional deer. Thoughtfully decorated with new furnishings and the grandeur of 10 foot ceilings throughout.

Walk to Bountiful temple plus hiking/biking trails! Great wifi. Washer/dryer. 20 minutes from SLC Airport. Smoke free (no smoking permitted anywhere inside our outside the property).

Come relax at your Mountain View Retreat!

Residential neighborhood in the foothills. No neighbors behind you (wooded hillside area).

Gorgeous basement apartment with private entrance that leads into beautiful living room with large sectional couch and reading chair. From there, make your way into the fully equipped kitchen with a large picture window overlooking the wooded view. Adjacent is the comfy family room with 60 inch TV and charming, decorative wood burning stove--the perfect place for family gathering and relaxing. Some games, puzzles, and books provided.

2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms provide excellent living space. Master BR has queen size bed. Much smaller 2nd BR has delightful bunk bed. Living room has new hide-a-bed sleeper. Master bedroom has desk area for remote work. Both bathrooms are rather small; one has tub/shower while the other has a shower. New full-size washer/dryer, ironing board, etc..

Everything is easy access with no stairs.

Watch the lovely sunsets from the back patio! Fenced in backyard for children, plus small basketball area. Becomes a winter wonderland when it snows, with a private tubing/sledding hill for kids in the backyard! Enjoy the hammock overlooking the valley from spring through autumn. Beautiful birds year round.

Terrific place for vacations, remote work trips, or short-term rental.

We live upstairs if you have questions or need recommendations or anything else! You may hear our gentle footsteps and light noise from time to time!

Highly desirable location. Walking distance to marvelous hiking and biking trails. Surrounded by both world-class and family-friendly ski resorts, all accessible in under an hour. Golf, tennis, shopping, restaurants, theatres, spas and rec center are also all within minutes.

Temperature in basement apt. comfortably maintained at roughly 70 to 75 degrees year round (no separate thermostat in basement).

What a view!
Came into town for a wedding at the Bountiful Temple. The place was perfect form our family to gather before and between and after events happening in a variety of places in town. So close to Salt Lake City and all the happenings there too. Communications with the owners were easy and quickly responded too. And the view from the ravine on evening walks was ncredible.

Great Stay!
We stayed for 3 nights and really enjoyed our stay. It was a very nice & safe neighborhood. The apartment was decorated very nicely and was clean. There was also a lot of space for three people. In addition, there were a lot of restaurants nearby plus lots of shopping nearby. We had a great time and would recommend staying here.

Perfect getaway
We stayed here for a volleyball tournament we had in the area. It was roomy and clean. We were treated with a gift and note from the owner which was very classy upon our entry. It is in a basement of a home but it feels like its own place and was very open with nice windows to bring in natural light. Would highly recommend and stay again which we hope to in the future for a trip to Lagoon. Thank you Russ and Jen!

For a basement apartment, it included lots of light and high ceilings. The place was finely decorated with exceptional class. There were two different rooms for cozy sitting including one for adult conservation and the other for the children to play. There was a suitable desk for my husband to work. Parking was so advantageous right outside the door. It was favorable with no stairs. and was located in a beautiful neighborhood. The owners were so gracious in helping us to feel comfortable! It was a wonderful place for our family to stay! Thank you!
