About this property

The Shredder`s Shanty - Close to Ski Resorts!

  • Located in the heart of Cottonwood Heights and only minutes to the canyons, you`ll love the cosy feel of the Shredder`s Shanty. Setup and furnished with the traveller in mind, our home includes fast WiFi, smart TV, a full kitchen, washing machine/dryer and a private patio and chairs. Only 25-30 minutes to world class skiing at Snowbird, Alta, Brighton and Solitude, 35 minutes to Park City, 20 to city centre Salt Lake City, 25 to the airport, and close to multiple supermarkets, bars and restaurants.

    Conveniently located 5 minutes from both Big Cottonwood Canyon and Little Cottonwood Canyon, Shredder`s Shanty can get you to the world class resorts and within minutes. (Our record time is 25 min from door to chair lift). This 1,000 sq ft basement unit has two bedrooms, one bathroom, full kitchen, and full sized washing machine and dryer in unit.

    The unit is exactly 1.8 miles (less than 5 minutes) from the mouth of Big Cottonwood Canyon, home to Brighton and Solitude, as well as the motorway entrance leading to Canyons, Park City, Deer Valley, Snowbasin, Powder Mountain, and Sundance Mountain Resort. City centre is just 20 minutes away. There is a bus stop that can take you to the forementioned resorts in walking distance from the house as well.

    The Shredder`s Shanty is also located near the Recreation Centre, which provides ammenities such as gym, tennis court, and indoor/outdoor pool for $5/day.

    Additionally, the sofa is a pull out sofa, so for the true ski bums at heart, the space can accommodate six guests.

    Parking is on the West side (looker`s right) of the driveway. Off street parking is also available. Please do not park on patio.

    Guests may be staying upstairs.
    No smoking.
    No fires in fireplace.
    Close spa pool cover when done.
    No parties.
    Respect the neighbors.

Great location!

Great location for getting to different ski resorts (or the shuttle stops). Very clean. Drew reached out several times to see if everything was okay, and was very responsive.

Base Camp to ski the week in Cottonwood Heights

We had a great time Skiing Alta, Snowbird, Solitude, Park City, Powder, and Snowbasin during the week we stayed at the Shredder's Shanty. It was in a convenient location for the Ski Buses to the Cottonwoods ski areas, and close enough to the Ogden ski areas to be the perfect base camp for our trip. A full kitchen and nearby grocery stores helped us save money by eating in, but we also got good food eating at the nearby Cotton Bottom Inn and Lone Star Taqueria. The cab fare to downtown nightlife was inexpensive, and my friends had fun going out on the town at the Twist and the Green Pig. We also had a good time playing pool at the Hog Wallow. Getting here from the Airport was surprisingly inexpensive with a rideshare. The provided space heaters were indespensable to help us warm up and dry our gear after skiing all day. The shower was also very nice, the house was clean, and the beds were comfortable and warm. The host also sent messages with useful information throughout the week. Thanks for a great stay!

Great location

Family and I stayed here for the 4th of July, loved the area. We enjoyed our stay. It is pretty loud if there are people staying in the upper unit but I had read that on the previous reviews so I was already expecting it, but it was a nice stay.

Overall, the stay was great. The location is perfect for mountain access without committing to any specific lodge. Docked one star because the pull out couch sheets were unclean. New sheets were provided once discussed with the host, but my friend did have an uncomfortable first night. Would still recommend or come back.

Good location for ski trip

Everything was smooth and easy. Finished basement so expect to hear creaking and people walking upstairs. Kitchen needs more plates, cups, bowls etc. full size fridge is nice… beds comfortable….good price but very basic place.

Great Neighborhood Walk-out Basement Apartment

This is a great location and cozy basement apartment. We had folks move in above us for the weekend, which wasn’t as private given the lack of curtains on the 2 bedrooms, and we could hear their footsteps above and their conversations pretty clearly. Otherwise, it was quite cozy and quiet.
