Living, Games & Dirty Soda Bar

The fun continues downstairs in the dedicated entertainment area, where you’ll find a large television for movie nights, comfy couches, and shuffleboard. Challenge your group to a game, settle in for a movie, or head over to the Dirty Soda Bar and create your own custom drink.
Dirty soda is a local Utah favorite, and the downstairs soda bar gives you a chance to mix, match, and experiment with your own signature combination.
