Park City

Upon arrival in Park City, you will quickly realize how close the ski resorts and activities are to all of our lodging areas. Park City emerged as a mining town with the discovery of silver in the late 1880's but has recently become a haven for skiing & snowboarding enthusiast.

The silver mine fueled beautiful construction of victorian mansions, homes, shops, and hotels. With the price of silver lowering and other opportunities for employment emerging, the town declined in population. It wasn't until miners of powder discovered this paradise in the 1950's that the city found it's new focus. Park City Mountain Resort, Deer Valley Resort, and The Canyons are the motherload for powder seekers from all over the world. A few of them even struck Gold, Silver, and Bronze in 2002.

Most of these ornate buildings have been carefully restored to their original beauty. Other new buildings have been constructed to blend in with the natural surroundings. We boast a collection of diverse options. Victorian homes in the center of town. Beautiful wooded lodges in the trees. And comfortable condos near the resorts.
