Other Details to Note

Hello! I'm Justin and I am the owner of the home and your Airbnb host. I live alone upstairs and take great pride in providing the best possible experiences for my guests, so please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions, recommendations, or requests. I work remotely from home as a leadership coach for a company here locally in UT. Also, please note that guests are only allowed 2 parking spaces in the driveway, and street parking is not allowed per city ordinance for short-term rentals. If you need accommodation for additional cars, please contact me for approval before booking. The hot tub is available upon request, with advance notice only to ensure it’s prepared for your arrival. Please inform me at booking or prior to your stay if you plan to use the hot tub, and I’ll be happy to review the usage guidelines. This allows me to heat and balance it properly, as it is not typically kept hot outside of guest bookings.

Accessibility

Neighborhood

The retreat is nestled in a peaceful, walkable neighborhood with tree-lined streets, nearby parks, and incredible views of the Wasatch Mountains. You’ll be just a short walk from an 11-mile trail system — perfect for morning runs, evening strolls, or a quick nature break between adventures. For skiers and snowboarders, the location couldn’t be more convenient. It’s only a 5-minute drive to the UTA Ski Bus Park & Ride (2000 East & 9400 South) with direct access to Alta and Snowbird. Prefer to drive? Plan for roughly 25 minutes to reach Alta and Snowbird in Little Cottonwood Canyon, and about 35 minutes to Brighton and Solitude in Big Cottonwood Canyon. Drive times can vary significantly during ski season, so plan extra time on powder days. You’re also just 12 minutes from the Mountain America Expo Center, and most local attractions and restaurants are a quick $10–$15 Uber ride away.

Guest Access

Guests have exclusive access to the entire apartment, accessible through a private entrance for a seamless, independent stay. Two dedicated parking spots are conveniently located near the entrance. The backyard is available for outdoor relaxation when landscaping work is not in progress. If you’d like to use this space, please let me know in advance, and I’ll do my best to accommodate. The hot tub is available upon request, with advance notice to ensure it’s prepared for your arrival. Please inform me at booking or prior to your stay if you plan to use the hot tub, and I’ll be happy to review the usage guidelines including the hours of use from 7 am - 10 pm. This allows me to heat and balance it properly, as it is not typically kept hot outside of guest bookings.
