Enjoyed Family time and some skiing and hiking.
Proper was just as pictured. Dated but clean and everyone had a space to chill.I have never been contacted so much by management though during a VRBO stay.
The perfect place for a relaxing winter getaway. I don’t ski and I had a wonderful time relaxing in the hot tub and cooking for the boys while they hit the slopes.

I will definitely be using Cottonwood Lodging Company again. I hope we can go back next year and use the company. Overall amazing experience! Really impressed by everything.
This is a comfortable cabin in a heavily forested area. We had a few rain showers each day but due to the time of year, the storms built up throughout the morning with brief rain in the afternoon. The cabin is situated within walking distance to the Brighton ski lifts and hiking trails. There is a general store and cafe nearby. They have a few basics... including canned oxygen :) The hot tub is dated and the jets are not overly powerful but the water was crystal clear and the beauty of looking up into mature Aspen trees cannot be beat. The area is very quiet even with how crazy busy the Brighton resort is every weekend. We enjoyed hiking the various trails found nearby. The kitchen has everything you need for preparing and serving meals. A doe and her fawn visited every morning and a family of chipmunks dwells in the rocks directly behind the house. The hosts are great and respond to texts within a few minutes. The large wood pile in the garage has a strong odor but it cannot be sensed in the upstairs main house. There is definitely a summer bug problem this year but we were warned so it wasn't a surprise. We enjoyed our high altitude stay in a beautiful cabin in a beautiful location.

We traveled 2 families (4 adults, 4 kids under 6) to Brighton for the kids first ski trip. We loved the resort and this home. It was so spacious and had everything you could ever need. Such a nice bonus to have things such as olive oil, kitchen spices, dish soap, laundry needs, etc. We loved spending our days on the mountain and evenings at this lovely home. The location is perfect, just note worthy hills for little Kids you would need to drive to drive which was no big deal. Thank you again!

The Uinta Lodge is a great place to rent for ski trips with a large family or large friend groups. The home has comfortable beds, awesome areas for games and spending time together after hitting the slopes. The only issues we had were the snowblower in the garage didn’t function properly and we had a few (3) mice get into our luggage. All in all what a beautiful place to rent for a ski trip at Brighton!

Great location - we were able to walk to the Great Western Lift, which was very convenient. The home was clean and comfortable for our group of 9. There were a few lightbulbs that we had to replace. Also, we did not have an ice maker and there were no ice cube trays. Overall, a great rental.

Overall the house worked well for our family gathering. There are a few things that didn't quite meet my expectations. The lighting is very dated and doesn't give off much light. Perhaps that's part of the log cabin charm. The screens didn't fit tightly in the windows so we were fighting off flies. And the smell from the wood pile in the garage was not great. Those items aside, great place, great location, fun time.
The property was outstanding. Plenty of room for our three families, location for Brighton was perfect. Communication was outstanding. I definitely recommend this location.

After my father's funeral in Salt Lake, several family members gathered at Brighton Ski Resort to spend some quiet family mountain time together at this wonderful cabin. So comfortable, so secluded, we loved the hot tub and gathering around the fireplace. Everything we needed was there. Close to the lake for gentle walking. We would do this again and again.

The cabin was better than the photos! Just driving to the cabin was a beautiful experience with almost 20 feet of snow on both sides. The cabin was large and clean and had everything we needed. The hot tub was just the right temperature and was cool to relax and watch the snowcats do there thing at night. The property management company was very accommodating and if I could give 10 stars I would. We will absolutely be back and thank you for a great trip!!
