Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!' Enjoy the quintessential Alta experience at this outdoor enthusiast's haven right on the banks of Little Cottonwood Canyon Creek, where you'll be treated to an enviable location near the base of Alta’s Westward Ho ski run. As one of the first homes in Alta (built by one of the directors of the Alta Ski School), this home has been beautifully updated to retain the charm of the original structure while offering lavish modern amenities. At the end of a day on the slopes, you can curl up in front of the gas fireplace, read a good book or watch your favorite movie, take a nice soak in the private hot tub on the private balcony, and soak in majestic views of Mt. Superior and Alta Ski Area. Whether you're planning to watch the snow fall in the winter, wake up to the sounds of the neighboring creek in the summer, or catch a glimpse of the spectacular fall foliage, this home was made for lovers of the outdoors. The house is a short walk or free Alta shuttle ride from the base area lifts, providing you with easy access to some of the most challenging terrain in North America along with a variety of restaurants and shops. The avid skier will also find some of the best backcountry in the world nearby. Come summertime, you'll be within walking distance of hiking trails at Alta and Snowbird, as well as wildflower fields, other natural wonders, and the Hellgate Cliffs - a world-class rock climbing destination.

We loved our stay, and the house was great. Be advised the walk down/up the snowy path can be a little treacherous hauling gear, even with the sleds that are available.

This house was beautiful. It is 30 minutes from down town Salt Lake City but you would think it is hours away. You are right in the mountains with a roaring river right next to the house. The sound of the water was so peaceful every night. The view is unbelievable. Mountains all around and the master bedroom has a view that can’t be beat. We used the hot tub every day as it got cool at night even when it was 90 plus in the city. It was roughly 20 degrees cooler up at the cabin than in the city. Unlimited hiking during the day. It is on an extremely steep driveway. Getting to the cabin was fine in June with a compact car but the driveway definitely requires 4 wheel drive, even without snow. It is very steep with gravel. There is a caretaker that lives in an apartment under the cabin. She was helpful when we had some issues with the cars and other than that you wouldn’t know she was there. Perfect size for my 6 family members. Very secluded. We saw no neighbors during our 6 day stay.

We loved our stay here this year. The place was clean and the caretake (onsite, downstairs) was friendly, easy to get a hold of and she offered to help with the luggage. I declined since I had a group of 15 year olds to do the work instead. There is a bit of a haul getting from the parking lot to the front door. It's about 50 yards (my guess) that ends with a narrow, snowy stairway to the front door. But, they do have a sled by the parking lot to help haul your stuff. The only negative is we did have to shovel out the steps when we got there, but that isn't worth subtracting a star. I have that job the kids.

The house is fantastic, with everything you need to enjoy the week for a group of 8. The views from the hot tub are spectacular. Location near Alta was fantastic. Close enough to hear the boom of the avalanche cannons in the mornings. A few complaints: The gas fireplaces were not functional. The on premise caretaker who was supposed to help with luggage and shovel the path to the chalet did not do either. We spent hours shoveling the path from the parking to the house. Not fun, especially with the 3 feet of snow we received during the week (which was awesome). Decks were shoveled once by the caretaker. We shoveled the rest of the week. Parking was tight, and not always available given the extra snow in the parking area. Again, we had to shovel our own spaces, which were not always available when we returned.

This house is amazing. The walk in is a little steep, so that may be an issue for some, but the setting is beautiful, and the house itself is wonderful and very spacious for it's small footprint. Would definitely stay here again.
