This small house is a perfect, pet friendly spot near the U. It is remarkably quiet for being in such a busy part of town, with privacy fencing around the yard. Modern styling and impeccably clean

Great little studio

Was in town with my wife and for Sundance and we had a lovely stay. It was it a nice neighborhood and it was easy to get to the highway to Park City (about a half hour drive to Main Street). The place was clean, cozy and cute. Would stay again!

Cozy Guest House. Close to everything.

I was impressed with the location and accessibility. My wife and I traveled with our dog and having the private yard made this one of the best VRBO experiences we've had. The unit was well appointed and very comfortable.

Quiet Getaway cottage

Approximately 700 sq ft. cottage located on a very quiet residential street in SLC. Less than 10 minutes to drive to the University of Utah hospital (even with all the construction going on). Very peaceful setting, with all the amenities of home. We will definitely stay here again.

Cozy Little Hideaway

We enjoyed the property so much, we are thinking about re-creating in backyard for old get away without having to travel to Utah. We will be back to Utah and look forward to staying again. The Murphy bed provided for a good nights rest. The bathroom and kitchen had everything we needed and more. We enjoyed the neighborhood and viewing the beautiful homes at Landscaping. Great restaurants nearby, and a beautiful view of the city on our walk. Our hosts were very responsive, we only wish we were able to meet them.

Beautiful, peaceful stay

My pup and I absolutely loved our stay at this VRBO. It’s the perfect size for one or two people and the fenced yard made it so easy for my pup to enjoy some outside time. The home was spotlessly clean and had all of the essentials I needed for my stay. I did do some cooking so it had everything I needed. I would definitely stay again. There isn’t a paved path to get from the street into the unit so if you have roller bags/luggage, be prepared to lift them - certainly not a dealbreaker and easy to do but be aware of if you have roller bags, you will need to carry them. There is a charming cobblestone rock path.

Bugs everywhere

Cute little guest house but due to it being located in a garden, there were bugs EVERYWHERE. The night we arrived there was a weird girl in a van throwing wet towels out onto the street. I think she was sleeping in her van right out front of the owners house. When we first got into the guest home, there were bugs all over the interior door and floors. We had to remove a ton of them to even feel comfortable going to bed. Thankfully we did not notice any on the bed. We did find bugs in the shower and tons in the window by the kitchen. Once we were there consistently, the bugs didn’t seem to come in as easily. They would come in every time we’d open the door. The garden is nice and secluded. We did wish the garden had fencing around it so we didn’t have to sit out there and make sure our dog wouldn’t walk in it. The mattress was average. The AC worked very well and kept the place chilly. Some of the kitchenware was stain and out of date. The appliances were super cheap and didn’t work that well. The management team was decently responsive. I did reach out on multiple occasions and they answered promptly; however, when we left, I reach out to see if we’d forgotten our camera battery charger in the wall and wanted to check if we did. Management said they’d have the cleaner look when she got there but then we never heard back ever again. Glad to have tried the experience but I don’t think we’d stay there again.
