Great House & Location

This house is perfect for a family or even two families to share. There is a ton of space with a great TV room and very large and nice kitchen. It’s an easy 10 minute walk to the lifts. I highly recommend this house for skiing at Brighton or Solitude.

Amazing Stay in Brighton

House is as advertised! Location is perfect for skiing Brighton and Solitude while avoiding the incredibly challenging weekend traffic (week-days didn't seem to be a problem). The management company was exceptional and in constant contact before and during the stay to ensure everything was ok. We were also incredibly fortunate to get dumped on with snow right before, and all during, our week-long stay. The conditions were truly epic. We also took a ride during the week to Snowbird which is very accessible (during mid-week anyway AND if travel conditions allow it). Thanks for the great stay and amazing vacation!

Brighton ski fun

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a delightful stay at this venue. The location could not have been better for skiing at Brighton especially under circumstances where parking was otherwise unavailable. Just a short walk to the shuttle that drops you off in front of the ski center. The house itself was comfortable for the eight in our family. The only glitch was the living room fireplace which was unavailable as inoperable despite the many efforts of the staff to ignite it. It was only an ambience factor as the house was plenty warm enough. I can’t say enough about the management company who responded to every concern we had in a prompt pleasant fashion. It snowed almost 3 feet during our four day stay but the road to the home was properly plowed and on the last morning after a foot of snow the night before, the driveway was promptly done very early in the morning. I will also add that the house is very nicely equipped for any cooking. We made all of our meals.

Great location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: While the location in Brighton was great and the property was clean and comfortable, several issues out a bit of a damper on our stay. For example, the oven was very dirty a smoked up the room when we tried to use it, there was a nonfunctioning fan in the upstairs bathroom, and a lot of very scratched up cookware. The property management company was very responsive, but we would've appreciated everything being in good shape when we arrived.
