My son and I had a perfect ski week while feeling like we were living in our own home. We settled right into the super spacious and comfortable rooms and utilized the full kitchen to cook our meals and relax/recover from skiing the best snow on earth. The location was ideally located to access Big and Little Cottonwood canyons and was also minutes away from all sorts of shopping and great restaurants. All in all, our stay at The Skiers Dream was all we could have hoped for and wrapped a comfortable bow around an epic ski week we will never forget😎 Thanks again to our gracious hosts!!!

We stayed here for our Christmas vacation. The location is great and only about 30mins away from ski/snowboarding activities. There were so many toys for kids so if you are traveling with small children this is definitely the spot. There was a roller coaster, train table, mini kitchen, rocking horse and another whole large closet of toys. My 1.5 year old was thoroughly entertained. There is a small kitchen where we were able to make a Christmas dinner, it was well stocked and had most cooking essentials. The only issues we ran into was the roku being very slow/hard to operate. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Our family had a wonderful time staying in this apartment. Your accommodations will be one level of a family home, which includes 2 bedrooms (sleeps 6), 2 bathrooms (one is half bath so note there is only 1 shower), fully-stocked kitchen, spacious living room and dining space, and even a washer dryer. The beds were very comfortable, we had more than enough blankets and towels. You will need to walk down a few series of short sets of stairs to access it. Free parking spot for 1 car is set aside for you. There is a big grocery store ~5min away. It was ~25min drive to Snowbird/Alta and to Solitude/Brighton and it's about equidistant from both access roads so you can easily visit both sets of mountains in one trip for an Ikon pass family! We enjoyed being so close, having such a spacious area to cook meals and spend time as a family, and overall had a fantastic stay.

We were in town for a week of snowboarding, and the location was very convenient for the ski resorts. Don and Deanna were hospitable hosts, quick with communication, and they also came out to offer snow toys for our two kids to play with. The kids had a ball playing in the yard and with all the books and games inside. Overall, a lovely stay and would definitely recommend!

As a family with teens and a toddler it’s hard to find a place that really fits all our needs but this property, Adventure House as my two year old called It , was perfect!
The house is stocked with toys perfect for the toddlers! My son played for hours! My teens loved the pool and swam every day we were there!
All four of my kids loved the ducks, goats, dog and trampoline!
As the reviews say the owners do live there but that wasn’t weird or awkward to us.
I worked downtown three days we were there and the trax was close enough to take into downtown. We spent one day at Snowbird and this property is just 25 minutes away!
Perfect place and when we come back to SLC for work we’d stay again

Great but not private pool
We had a wonderful stay. The home is beautiful and the surroundings are outstanding. The hosts are super kind & give lots of great tips and activities to do in the area. The house is stocked full of toys for the littles. They even have goats and chickens. However if booking you do need to know that the owners live there and they use the pool and are present around the property most of your stay. We were super disappointed when we couldn’t use the pool for a whole afternoon of our trip due to a pool party they had scheduled. I’m addition it felt un comfortable to ask the host every time we wanted to swim, so they could uncover it. Overall a wonderful home with tons of toys and a great layout, and amazing kind hosts however not sure we would be back.

We had a comfortable stay but the bathroom situation was not helpful as we were a family of 7 with 4 adults and 3 kids. We booked the house because it was advertised as 2 bedroom and 2 bath, but actually it was 1.5 bath because the second bathroom just has a seat and sink and no shower, that too in a laundry room The hosts were very kind and accommodating, they did their best to accommodate us with extra mattress, blankets and access to the pool.Moreover, they were quick to answer all our questions. House is beautiful, but the electronic appliances are outdated and need to be replaced.

The Good:
location, views, clean, roomy, pool was nice and warm.
The Bad:
Claims to sleep 8, we could only sleep 6. Didn't notice in the description that the owners live upstairs, they also let out the lower basement. The separations between the main house and the guest sections are makeshift and don't inspire enough confidence, I was uncomfortable. Weird that the space still has large family photos. Most egregious was the "private pool" was used by the owners during our stay, making my kids not want to go swimming until they were done.

This rental was perfect for our family. There was a large great room with a fun sofa. We had our grandchildren come over to play with the awesome toys. There were games for the teenagers and everyone enjoyed the goats. The master bedroom was quiet and used as a work space. We were very pleased.

This family friendly home is beautiful and has an amazing view. They have cute goats, chickens and ducks plus plenty of games and toys for young children. The location is 5 minutes from AJ Sports / rentals and the ski bus stop to Snowbird and Alta. When we return, we would definitely stay there again.

We had such an enjoyable stay at this amazing place. The furniture, kitchen amenities, property and decor were all top notch! You can tell a lot of love has gone into making this a special place to rent. The hosts were so welcoming and accommodating allowing us to feed their cute ducks, chickens and goats. They also kept their pool heated in cold weather so we could swim to our hearts content. The neighborhood is safe, the view of the mountains is stunning, and we hope to visit again in the future!

RELAXING STAY!
*I must preface this review with the fact that this was our FIRST EVER VRBO experience* What an awesome place! We had plans to explore the Salt lake city area but this property was so well appointed we ended up spending most of our time there! There is so much to do in the property, from swimming in the ENORMOUS heated pool, to taking in the mountains in the back, playing one of the many board games, or enjoying a walk in the yard with the ducks and goats, we were relaxed to the max. The owners were very accommodating of our small trailer we were towing with us at the time and even offered to let us use their facilities to wash our jeep after visiting the salt flats. Despite being able to hear footsteps above and being mindful of the level beneath, the clean house, antique decor and beautiful fixtures, a stay here is akin to a stay at your rich uncle's mansion in the mountains. Pro tip: the sun rises over the mountains approximately 1 hour after normal sunrise.

Our family of 5 (kids ages 2,4,8) loved our stay; the pool, animals, toys in the house, etc. made the trip a blast for our kids. The location was great for us as well, easy access to mountains for morning hikes. Don and Deanna were great hosts and we will stay here again anytime we're in the SLC area.
