About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Historic Lodge located on Big Cottonwood River.

Maxfield Lodge is the ideal spot for your ski trip. 5 mins up Big Cottonwood Canyon means you are close to the amenities of Salt Lake and only a 15 minute drive to world class ski resorts. Beat the crazy ski traffic and hang out on the river at night. 15 min from Little Cottonwood Canyon. Perfect for a large family or friends with 10 beds. Huge vaulted ceilings and tons of natural sunlight. Small kitchen but quick access to tons of delicious restaurants.

This property has breathtaking views of the river. An amazing, quiet neighborhood just far enough off Big Cottonwood Canyon road to feel secluded while still having unparalleled access to both skiing and city accommodations.

Great place with a great view

My friends and I stayed at this wonderful home for a weekend when visiting SLC. The home was clean and enjoyed the jacuzzi and river view. Had issues with getting the fireplace started so the property manager sent a maintenance guy over pretty quickly to get it activated. Overall it was a good place in a good location to stay when skiing/snowboarding at Brighton

Great Place

Location to SLC and shopping and canyon. All great. The facility was awesome. Just note, if you want to use the kitchen it is small but workable. Just bring any utensils you might need other than table ware. You will be happy to have it. This would not stop me from renting again, just good to know.

Mid century modern cabin oasis

We are SLC locals and love to spend our time in the mountains. We do a few staycations up the canyon every year. This place comfortably for our group. The bathroom situation is a little funky, but was not problem for our group. The location is primo!! Some of our group took the shuttle service to bike Crest and we all went up to Brighton to mountain bike the easy rider trail. Thanks for having us.

Sick Ski/Snowboard House

Stayed here for a long weekend with friends to go skiing/boarding and couldn’t have booked a better house. The view was gorgeous, beds were comfortable, the entertainment/living room was perfect for a large group (the pictures don’t do it justice), the hosts were very responsive if we needed anything, and it was located close to the mountains. It has some unique aspects to it and the kitchen is a bit small, but overall it was an awesome rental.

Wow Beauty in the Mountains

What a beautiful property with an interesting history! This looks to be an old cabin that was eventually turned in to a lodge and restaurant. It is right on a small river as the photos show. One side of the "lodge" is all glass, with beautiful views. It's really unbelievable. It looks like much of the open space lodge was turned into bedrooms. Fireplaces are great, beds are great. Once can certainly pick on the kitchen and/or bathrooms. Kitchen is on the smaller size and older. So if you plan to cook up a feast here this place may not be for you. But that is not what this lodge is about. It is about the grandeur of living in nature, amongst bustling trees, with the sound of a busy river running right by and as you look up you stare in to the beautiful mountains or on a clear night a starry sky.
