Cottage was amazing. Perfect location for Snowbird and Alta. 15 minutes up the Canyon. Tons of extras there for cooking, loved staying there. Really liked the gas fireplace/stove. Having laundry there was a great benefit along with hot tub and bbq!

Cute Cottage with a Million Dollar View
This was everything we were looking for in a place to stay while visiting our son. The hosts were very responsive. The cottage is equipped with everything you could possibly need, including kitchenware, toilet paper, laundry detergent, shampoo, body wash, conditioner, lotion, towels, etc. The property has the most stunning backyard areas for sitting and taking in the amazing views of Little Cottonwood Canyon. A bottle of wine, chips and homemade salsa were also provided. I cannot think of anything else they could have done to make us feel more welcome. I highly recommend this property, especially if you're a skier. The hills are just minutes away, as are the grocery store and restaurants.

Refreshing Getaway Spot
The Ivy Cottage pleasantly surprised my friends and me. Erick greeted us and gave us a tour first thing, pointing out helpful items and ideas as he went. The house itself is at the back of a garage, and is charmingly constructed, with one bedroom and a full bathroom with laundry downstairs, a nook in the upstairs with a sofa, tv, and bed, and another bedroom with a half bath off of it on the other half of the room. The kitchen and living room downstairs are perfectly suited for small gatherings and more well-suited to cooking and hanging out for four mid-forties and up women. The kitchen is incredibly well supplied with utensils, dinnerware, storage containers and foils/wraps. One of the loveliest parts was the yard. There is a comfortable seating and separate dining area just outside the house, with a small fence to separate the area from the owner's yard and their dogs. They welcomed us to use their yard too, with a huge couch with a fantastic view of Little Cottonwood at the west end of the property. I was able to put up my hammock and enjoy some reading on the trees to the north end of the property. The small a/c units did an admirable job of cooling the unit, and the bathrooms were very clean, tidy, and well-stocked. I would stay here again in a heartbeat if budget and plans allow it, and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a cozy, gorgeous, convenient location.

Cottonwood Canyons ski trip
This was our second year staying at the Ivy Cottage over spring break to ski at SLC area resorts. It is very convenient, cozy place to stay right near the base of Little Cottonwood Canyon. Alta and Snowbird are less than 30 min drive from the doorstep. It's also very close to anything you might need in town apres ski. Hosts are top notch and we will be back!
