FANTASTIC! This was not only a terrific place to stay in a great location, but the host, Jennifer, was amazing! I don't think we've ever experienced a kinder more accommodating host. This place was very clean, the instructions for check in and out and the local information and recommendations were incredible. If you aren't sure whether you should book this place- we would say- just do it! You will be very happy here.

Great stay!

Our stay was amazing. Jennifer is the most thorough person of contact I have ever had at a VRBO before. Great communication and offers suggestions on things to do, places to eat, etc. This was my first time in Salt Lake City and when I come back I would definitely stay here again! Loved the hot tub too!!

Also, it has almost everything needed for cooking. That was a first. The owner, Jennifer, was very accommodating. I would love to stay here again.

Jennifer was a great host! The 2BR that we were supposed to stay in had a leak before we arrived, so Jennifer graciously upgraded us to a 4BR at the same complex!! It was a beautiful place in a terrific location. The home was attractively decorated with a ski motif and was very clean. Checking in was super easy, and everything was well marked. There were plenty of towels and cookware and they had lots of amenities (like thoughtfully having sealed toothbrushes and toothpaste in case you forgot yours!) The location is perfect--super close to a supermarket and coffee shop and pub but also super close to great scenic drives and hikes in Cottonwood canyon. And, it's only about 20 min to downtown. Jennifer was attentive to our needs and checked on us through the app several times to make sure everything was going smoothly. The hot tub was a terrific way to relax every evening, the TV was HUGE and had a great sound system, and we enjoyed the foosball and all the games they had available. And, we used the grill almost every night to cook our meals! There were lots of brochures and guides and books to help you decide what you want to do in the wonderful SLC area. The place we stayed in was actually #142268 but the app would not let us change so we had to leave the review here. Thanks for everything Jennifer, we'll definitely stay here again when we come back!

No need to look further because This Is The Place!

There are so many wonderful aspects to this property, there isn’t enough room to extoll its many virtues or the quick responsiveness and generous thoughtfulness of its super hostess, Jennifer! Large comfy family room with a beautiful artistic décor that complements the natural Utah vibe – take some time to look around, you’ll see beautiful little accents around every turn. All the creature comforts of home, washer/dryer, dish washer, garbage disposal, double oven - this kitchen is better stocked with utensils than my own - and if you don’t see something you want, keep looking, it’s bound to be there. Three full bathrooms, two bedrooms (one with master bath with jetted tub), and a day bed on the first landing that could easily be a third sleeping area. I have to take a moment to talk about the beds – Most Comfortable Mattress Ever! I slept for 8 hours straight for the first time in many years, as did my husband. And the crème de la crème – the hot tub. It has different jets at each corner and side, and it’s private, right outside the back sliding glass door, with views to soothe the mind while the jets massage the body. After hiking or skiing, it’s the perfect way to end the day, or get reinvigorated for a night of dinner, dancing, drinks, in the city or at one of the fantastic restaurants in the many nearby canyons. Thank You Thank You Thank You, Jennifer, for providing a little bit of Shangri-La where you can actually have that memorable vacation that you always hoped for!

Comfortable, well stocked & Great Location

We enjoyed our stay in this Cottonwood Heights townhouse, it's a great location for skiing in either the Little or Big Cottonwood canyon resorts. The unit is well stocked with kitchen and laundry supplies - not always the case in rental properties. The hot tub is top shelf and the gas fireplace is nice after a day on the slopes. There are a number of dining options in the surrounding area if you're too tired to cook! While it wasn't a problem for us the multiple staircases from the garage to the bedrooms might be an issue for some. The owner is very prompt to reply to any questions and was extremely easy to work with!
