Very close to two world class ski resorts, easy access from main road, close to Silver Fork Lodge (great breakfast or apres-ski), cross country skiing, lift served mountain biking, dining, fishing , hiking, snowshoeing, sledding, etc. very quiet and serene at night. Two great hiking trails known only to the locals in the neighborhood. Moose and other wildlife frequently visit.
Ample parking for 2 vehicles in the driveway. All wheel drive or four-wheel-drive vehicles strongly recommended during winter months. Additional parking is available on the property in the summer months.
Get ready for fall colors in the canyon! Enjoy excellent hiking, mountain biking, dining, free concerts and other activities are all near by. We'll provide you with a calendar of events before you check in.
Moose may visit the property in the fall and spring. They look friendly but we suggest guests keep their distance to be safe.
Minimum stay is 30 days. Please contact us with questions. Thank you
Great, cozy place, with everything you need to relax! Only 2 minutes for resort!
Charming and very clean mountain cabin located just off Cottonwood Canyon Rd. The parking area and the access pathway were plowed nicely so there was no trudging through snow necessary. Beds comfortable, kitchen well stocked, internet worked well, and the large tv in the main room was setup to get most major streaming services. Now if you are like me and love to build a fire in the fireplace on a snowy winter's night, you will be disappointed. The beautiful fireplace has an electric faux flame insert which although authentic looking, sadly puts off no heat and no wood burning charm. Overall really enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to friends.
The cabin is absolutely stunning with all the modern amenities to make our stay perfectly comfortable.
So close to trails and two ski properties- quaint place and owners very attentive and easy to get in contact with if needed
The Swiss Cottage is a real gem! We would gladly return in summer or winter. The home is thoughtfully appointed from top to bottom - we enjoyed cooking and dining at the large dining table and then retiring to the large communal area with comfy couch and a variety of DVDs and shows to choose from in the evening. We enjoyed using the outdoor gas grill one evening and sharing the twilight with the busy hummingbirds and other fauna. While we didn't see a moose in the actual neighborhood, we did see two sets of ears across the street on a nearby trail, early one morning. This cottage is conveniently located off the main road, yet surprisingly private. There is some road noise when all the windows are open, though apart from the occasional pack of Harley riders, it is relatively calm. We loved being near nature! There are several local trails and creeks that we visited almost daily. We enjoyed heading up the mountain to the Brighton resort and doing the Silver Lake stroll, as well as having pizza and ice cream at the Solitude resort one night. The bathroom is funky and fun - a sunken tub allows you to feel almost as if you are bathing in nature. The upstairs den was perfect for our kiddo, with plenty of twin beds and puzzles and toys to entertain (and keep him up at night!). The main bedroom downstairs had an ample closet and plenty of space to store bags and things. We loved having coffee on the deck each morning and wandering around to meet Lulu, the cat down the road. What a pleasant experience at your cottage and thank you for all of the hospitality!
Beautiful decor, very functional and comfortable!
The proximity of this cabin to the resort was a huge plus. The place is super close and cozy. Fireplace is definitely a plus. I was able to log onto the wifi and work remotely in the mornings which was nice. My daughter really enjoyed the Kid cave and toys. The movie selection is great and it was nice to reminisce with some classics like Happy Gilmore. Overall I definitely recommend this place!
The cottage was lovely. Loved the red and white Swiss decor throughout. Cute snowflake coasters above the mantel, red and white bells hanging from the spiral staircase and a genuine Swiss clock on the wall were extra nice touches. Main level bedroom was fine and the loft was warm and cozy with sleeping for 4. There are fans and heaters to use if you get too warm or a little chilly. Living room is a great place to gather- it's huge and they have lots of movies to choose from as well as games, some of which hadn't even been opened. We loved playing Scattergories and Deer in the Headlights. I had forgotten to bring games and so was pleasantly surprised to find a whole rack full. Loved the bathroom, from the sunken tub/shower with the Swiss shower curtain to the knobs on the drawers of the vanity. One suggestion would be to install a metal bar by the tub to hold onto when getting in and out. The patio/ deck was lovely with outdoor lights and a beautiful fire pit, not to mention bench seating as well. The area is beautiful with lots of Aspen's and evergreens. We were able to take advantage of a nearby hike before the rain came. We had a great time!
