Gorgeously updated basement apartment with its own private entrance. This separate 1200 sq. ft. space includes a fully-equipped kitchen, laundry room, 2 large bedrooms, 2 TVs, 2 bathrooms with 1 bathtub and 1 deluxe shower panel, living room with a fireplace, office space, wifi, and more. 15 minutes from Downtown and 5 minutes from Big Cottonwood Canyon. 7 Ski Resorts within 40 Minutes! Shared Hottub on the deck with a city view and AMAZING sunsets! Covered parking and local hot spot advice available.

The space Located in a prime area of the Salt Lake Valley, this basement is all brand new and took a lot of blood, sweat and tears so please, do your best to take care of it. My brother Josh helps me manage the rental and lives upstairs with his wife and their dog. They are not home too often but there is potential for noise. I installed noise canceling insulation in the ceiling but some noise still comes through. Don't hesitate to text or call if you need them to keep it down. The space is spacious for 4 guests, good for 6 guests, and will accommodate a maximum of 7 guests. There is a keypad entrance so you can check-in just about whenever you need without having to check with us. There is brand new air conditioner and furnace. This is a quiet neighborhood. I take a lot of pride in making your stay comfortable and fun so please let me know what I can do to improve it!

Bedroom 1: This large bedroom has a King size bed with a Zinus Ultima Comfort Memory Foam 12 Inch Mattress complete with 3 of high quality BioFoam (the highest quality of memory foam), 3 of of Pressure Relieving Comfort Foam, 6 of High-density Base Support Foam, all covered Soft Knitted Jacquard Fabric, all combined to provide you with an amazing nights sleep. WARNING: I slept on this mattress once and now I hate all other mattresses. Bedroom also has mood lighting (BYO Marvin Gaye album), closet, night stands, lamps, and a 36 flat screen TV complete with an Apple TV. The sofa can fold in to a full size bed, extra sheets in the closet, and is about as comfortable as you'd expect a sleeper futon to be. The extra queen-size blow up mattress is in the closet with sheets and blankets.

Bedroom 2: This slightly-smaller-but-still-pretty-big bedroom has a queen bed with a mattress topper, closet, hutch, laundry basket, night stands, and lamps. Oh and mood lighting, of course.

Laundry: We've provided a large capacity washer and dryer.

Bathroom 1: This bathroom offers a newly tiled shower with a clear glass door and shower panel. This shower panel is the Taj Mahal of showers. It includes waterfall, rainfall, misters, body jets, regular ol' shower head with 3 pressure settings, temperature display, LED color lighting, and a foot wash spout. Necessities and complimentary toiletries are provided including clean, soft towels, shampoo, conditioner, soap, and washcloth.

Bathroom 2: This bathroom offers a classic bathtub to soak in and if you like boring old shower heads over multi-function shower panels then you're in luck because this bathroom has one. It also has a mountain-themed shower curtain. Necessities and complimentary toiletries are provided including clean, soft towels, shampoo, conditioner, soap, washcloth, and hair dryer.

Kitchen: Brand new stainless steel appliances; 5-burner stove, fridge with ice maker, microwave, oven, dishwasher, and sink with disposal. The kitchen is well-equipped including a coffee maker, and a blender. The kitchen has a dining table for 3 for sit down meals. Kitchen complete with nearly all the conveniences of home.

Living Room: Great open concept for family and friends, large 50 flat screen complete with Roku set up with Hulu and Showtime accounts logged in. The couch is brand new (as of 12/23). There is an available inflatable mattress for 2 additional guests. There is free high-speed internet throughout. The front room also has a vintage wood-burning stove for cozy winter nights (please abide by local fire restrictions, many winter nights are no burn days in SL county and enforced strictly).

Outside: This is a shared space between the guests and the home owners and their guests. Hottub is on the front deck which is gated. Help yourself through the gate anytime. Sometimes my brother’s dog hangs out on the balcony, if that’s the case, don’t hesitate to knock on the door or text us and will bring her right inside. There is a security camera in the car port by the entrance to the guest unit. I also have a Ring doorbell with video surveillance on the upstairs front door, which monitors the front porch including the hottub.

Guest access You will have the basement to yourself. You can park on the right side of the covered carport. The door is right in front of your parking spot and has a code so you can come and go as you please. It is ground-level so you won't have to worry about any stairs. My brother Josh lives upstairs with his wife and their dog Sadie. She’s a very friendly dog who likes to hangout on the deck so feel free to say hi to her if you’re a dog person (if you’re wanting to use the hot tub and Sadie is out just let them know and they’ll bring her inside). They are gone a lot but happy to chat or help out when they can. Feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns. I grew up in the area and have spent a lot of time in the outdoors here so feel free to reach out with questions or recommendations. Other things to note Kitchen is a fully stocked kitchen with a coffee maker, blender, pots, pans, toaster, microwave and hopefully anything else you need. Some pets may be allowed on a case by case basis and a $20/day pet fee. Pets must be fully potty trained, house trained, and quiet. There is no fenced yard.

    The apartment was just like described and photos. It's about 20 minutes up to Snowbird and Alta and 30 minutes to Brighton and Solitude. So convenient..!! The hot tub on the deck was great after skiing with cool views of Salt Lake City. Josh was responsive to minor issues. Lits of choices for restaurants nearby. We would go back for another ski trip.

    What a comfortable stay. All amenities were in top shape. Everything was very clean and organized. The host was very friendly and accommodating. Directions were clear and concise. Everything was easy to find. The location offers easy access to the mountains or the city. I can’t say enough about how great this place was at a very reasonable rate. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you

    This is a wonderful place! So cute and absolutely sparkling clean. I use a wheelchair and it was every bit as accessible as I hoped it would be! The hosts upstairs were really helpful and easy to get hold of. The AC is amazingly cool, even on the hot, hot days we were there. We'll try to book this place every time we head SLC direction!

    Had issues getting into the unit daily. Lock would not work. Had to bother the upstairs neighbors. Also wondering why I paid 69 for cleaning services but had to wash towels and strip the beds.

    This was the perfect condo for our stay. Everything was updated and remodeled. It had a phenomenal aerial view of all of the city lights sitting from the hot tub on the balcony at night. The owner was so incredibly generous with our needs and responded right away via text. It was just 30 minutes from all of the ski resorts we wanted. The location was perfect. Easy to get to cottonwood heights for dinner. Very reasonably priced for our group. The only hiccup and such a very small one at that, when turning on the faucets to the sinks you tend to get a little doused with water. So just be gentle when turning the faucets on. Again, a very small inconvenience that was easily fixable. I would 100% stay again in this condo when coming back to visit. This was our first time in Utah for skiing and it was such a beautiful experience.

    Great location to Cottonwood canyon ski resorts, Brighton & Solitude and Alta/ Snowbird.Very clean, modern and comfortable apartment. However it would be best for a family with smaller children, we had 2 adults, two 20yr olds and a 15yr old so we all couldn’t fit on the couch to watch TV, an extra seat or beanbag would have been ideal. My daughter used the blow up double bed in the main bedroom that was very comfortable, better than the futon.Bathrooms were good, loads of towels& the kitchen was roomy with everything needed to cook meals.We used the hot tub upstairs on the balcony that was lovely and hot with great views over Salt Lake City. The owners upstairs are lovely people and very welcoming and accommodating.Being from Australia we don’t have many ‘basement’ set ups so we didn’t know we wouldn’t be able to adjust the heating ourselves. Josh was very accommodating in adjusting it for us. We kept it cool and used the blow heater a little at night after skiing for a blast of warmth. We decided not to use the fireplace because it’s so close to the living space the consensus was it would overheat us all. There is also noise from above but nothing that bothered us, it’s part of the basement living in the US. They have all the ski resort trails printed onto frames on the wall that we loved and found very useful for our ski planning.Overall it was a great place for the price, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and skiing adventure in the beautiful Salt Lake area.

    As advertised. Nice views from the hot tub. Now, as I think about it, I recall that It was a little too warm and I couldn’t find a thermostat. So we left the windows open at night. This seems to be a thing with Salt Lake City VRBO’s - Basements are converted, but don’t get their own thermostat. Happened at the last place we were at too. Not really a big deal, but if its important to you might want to contact the owner first.
