It really felt comfortable to come back to the house
after a long day on the slopes. The comfortable
beds, plenty of towels, nice TV's, jacuzzi, helpful
manual, nice furnishings and decor, and the list
goes on... The location was also a huge plus as
Solitude and Snowbird took us less than 20 mins.
On the last day we went to Canyons, and even that
only took us about 30 mins. All in all, it was a
wonderful experience and I'll definitely come back,
as well as recommend your house to anyone I know
that's thinking about Utah for a vacation. |

enjoyed being there and especially coming home after
a day on the snow. |

| Perfect and wonderful -- best way to describe the experience all the way around! Some great family memories were created and no question we would want to stay here again if we return to SLC. Thank you! |

| We had such a wonderful time in your home. It was so completely furnished. We came into SLC for a family wedding and we all wanted to stay together. Family members came from Ohio, Wyoming, Arizona, and Idaho. The house gave us a wonderful place to spend our time together. We cooked most of our meals in a well supplied kitchen, we enjoyed the two different areas for TV viewing, and we really enjoyed the back yard. It was a wonderful experience and we will do it again. |

| We have stayed in several different homes or condos on vacations and this one was by far the best! Tons of towels and linens, and the kitchen had better supplies than my own. Very nicely decorated and convenient one level home. We plan on coming again. |

| Your home was so clean and nicely decorated. Plenty of linens and sleeping space. We really enjoyed the two tv rooms, along with the availibility of the crib and high chair. Hot tub was a big plus as well. Thanks again and we'll be sure to tell our friends! |

| We traveled to Utah to go to a family reunion in Syracuse, UT. There was six of us and we all had our private sleeping space and privacy when needed. We had a wonderful time in this home. It is fairly centrally located, and easy to get to. All the comforts of home. Really enjoyed the relaxing spa after hiking in the desert all day! The washer & dryer came in handy. Had plenty of fresh towels and the home is kept up and clean. We had our morning coffee on the deck in the backyard and barbecued our first evening meal and ate outside. |

Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home. It felt as if we never left home... Very Clean and close to everything. Thanks for the high chair... My grandson could have been a hand full without it. (this was a nice touch!) We loved everything about the home,it was Awesome! Our home away from home getaway! It was sad to have had to leave and come back to Hawaii... but we know now that we will always have a home in Utah to come to!

Thank you for a wonderful 4th of July weekend in
your beautiful vacation home. It was perfect for
our group of five adults and three children. The
house was immaculate, and the yard and play set
were fun for the children. We were especially
impressed by the attention to detail by the owners,
with each room being completely furnished and
comfortable. Each bedroom had beautiful
furnishings and ceiling fans, and the bathrooms
were even stocked with lotion, shampoo, and
hairdryers. They had also put together a notebook
in the kitchen filled with maps and directions to
nearby shopping, restaurants, etc. We loved having
two “hang-out” areas (family room and living
room), both with large TV’s. The location was
perfect, very close to the 215 loop. We highly
recommend this rental to anyone visiting Salt Lake
City!

Dear Lisa,
We had a wonderful time staying in your rental
home. It really turned
out to be the perfect set-up for our family. There
were enough rooms
and space that our little one could nap and we
could all still have a
life, chatting, watching movies, or playing board
games. We thoroughly
enjoyed your DVD selection--the girls, in
particular, loved seeing
Pippi Longstocking (which I hadn't seen in years).
The kitchen was
well-stocked with the essentials. And the BBQ,
patio, and playset
especially got quite a bit of use as well. My
husband was thrilled to
have such an amazing recreation center within
walking distance of where
we were staying. We all took full advantage of the
superb pool at the
rec center, too. I also greatly appreciated you
allowing us to check in
early on our day of arrival--our little one was
completely exhausted
and went right to nap as soon as we set up her pack
'n' play. We were a
bit rushed leaving, so besides some missed crumbs
and such, I hope you
found the house to be left in good order because
when we come back,
we'd love to stay there again.
Once again, thank you for providing such a lovely
home away from home!
Best regards,
Tamara |

| We flew into Salt Lake late on a Thursday night. Getting to the house was very easy (it's only about 35 minutes from the airport) and when we arrived everything was in terrific shape. We skied three straight days starting on Friday, and the house could not have worked out better. It is at the bottom of the canyons, so access to Solitude, Alta, and Snowbird was easy. Each ski area is within 30 minutes, even with weekend ski traffic. The house itself is very well maintained, has ample room to spread out, the outdoor hot tub is great, and the location just can't be beat. |

| We really enjoyed our stay. We had a group of 9 which worked out well. The house is well located within 20 minutes of Alta and Snowbird (avoid rush hour traffic), and within 20 minutes of downtown Salt Lake City. The home is well decorated, with all the beds, linens, seating, WIFI, entertainment and accessories you could ask for. I have rented numerous ski houses in the past and found this one to be ideal and very reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend to someone that is comfortable staying off-mountain - just be sure to rent a SUV. |

Lisa and Edgar,
The waist-deep powder on our recent ski trip, was only surpassed by your very clean and well-appointed home! We did not want for anything. We have rented many, many homes over the years, and your home was definitely one of the best! Thank you for taking such pride in your rental property and we look forward to staying with you again! |

| We rented the house for a family ski vacation Dec. 27-Jan. 5, 2008 and had a wonderful time. The property was well-cared for, well-stocked, and convenient to the ski areas. It offered everything we could possibly need for a family of 5, including a good supply of DVDs, plenty of towels, and everything you could possibly need in the kitchen. The hot tub was a welcome site after a day of skiing. The house was well-cared for, and the driveway was always plowed when we returned from a day of skiing. (And there was plenty of fresh snow during our week stay.) The owners were very thorough with arrival and departure instructions, and even surprised our son (who turned 13 the day after we arrived) with a wonderful birthday cake. We would definitely recommend this rental to any family looking for a home away from home. |

We had two families (8 total) stay here for a Christmas ski vacation. The
house was decorated with indoor and outdoor Christmas trees...such a nice
touch. They even had a chocolate cake waiting for us when we arrived! The
house was very clean and decorated very nicely. The kitchen was stocked
with all the cookware/dishes we needed. Lots of towels, pillows, blankets
made us all comfy. Nice to have a washer and dryer and laundry soap was
provided. This house is literally at the base of both Big and Little Cottonwood
Canyons. Very easy access to I-80, I-215. Lots of grocery stores and
restaurants nearby. This was just as nice as any 4 star hotel...we'll definitely
return!

Lisa & Edgar,
Thank you for having us in your lovely home! It was wonderful to have the ski slopes within a 15 min drive....we certainly had plenty of snow!! We loved your home....it was nicely furnished and comfortable too! We did have some issues with the dry air and altitude....may a humidifier to the bedrooms would be my only suggestion. We did eat out at some of the local restaurants and the Fish Market Grill and Boca de Beppo's was among our very favorite!! The hot tub was a favorite with our kids....big hit! Is there any way it could be moved to the back patio for easier and more convenient access to get in and out without having to go out the front door? We actually surprised your neighbors when they realized we were guests staying at your house and we were a little loud in the hot tub on one occasion!! But most of all we created some happy memories on our vacation and we really appreciate the accommodations! Thank you again! |

Homeowner Response:
Thank you for your kind words. Regarding the location of the hot tub - the back patio is just off a hardwood floor which we don't want ruined by dripping bodies leaving water trails from the tub to the bathroom and the back patio won't support the weight of the tub and the water - this is why it is located where it is. I'm surprised the neighbors didn't realize you were visitors as they know that house is a vacation rental property. On the subject of humidifiers I don't know anything about them as I have lived in Utah my whole life and didn't even know our air was "dry" relative to other places - I'll have to research humidifiers.
Thanks for staying,
Lisa

| Stayed here during a golf get away in late summer. Was very happy with the house. Location was great, house was great, and price was one of the best out there. Everything was in great shape and the owners did a lot to make things go smoothly (directions, maps to attractions, etc.). Deposit returned very quickly. Very impressed overall. Would certainly stay here again. |

| Everyone in our family raved about this place and was just what we expected, with new furnishings throughout the newly remodelled house. It was conveniently located with equally quick access to both little and big cottonwood canyons' resorts. We have stayed at many VRBO places and this was hands down the best one. The owners are professional, responsive and prompt--it was a pleasure to do business with a non real estate managed property owner. I want a hot tub just like the one we enjoyed at this place. We'll be back........HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! |

A real great home to stay at, highly recommended!
Our experience here really could not have been more positive. This home is excellent. A gorgeous place to stay with everything you'll need on your vacation. The home is beautiful, very accessible/easy to find and the neighborhood very nice and quiet.
Also, the Homeowners were a pleasure to deal with and very accomodating, it felt like instantly having new friends in a new city away from home.
I couldn't give this home a stronger recommendation and will make my reservations here for my visit next year as soon as possible.
If you've got a chance, stay here before its booked! |

I would have paid more for this one! We have
stayed in many homes for usually a week at a time,
in many different states. However, this home is the
warmest, most accomodating, coziest, and most
comfortable home we've ever stayed in. Perfect for
families and loaded with extra's.... this has left us
with quite a memorable "White Christmas" and a
wonderful "home away from home experience" to
recommend to family and friends. (This best kept
secret is no longer a secret... sorry) |
