David and I have purchased 19 weeks at the Cliff
Lodge @Snowbird up Little Cottonwood Canyon 25 minutes from
downtown Salt Lake City, Utah. The Cliff Lodge is a
Gold Crown Resort and is located just 7.5 miles and ten minutes
from the mouth of the canyon. The canyon is
beautiful....one of the most beautiful along the Wasatch Front
with its glacial hanging valleys, waterfalls, and pine-covered
granite slopes. Most of our weeks will be in the
spring, summer, and fall with limited availability in the ski
season.
The resort is 9+ floors of suites with an open, glassed-in 12
story atrium facing the ski runs. Each Suite has
two bedrooms, a living/kitchen area with a full kitchen, and
tree baths. There are two king size beds and three leather
queen sofa sleepers and three private balconies. The
living room has a private hot tub out on its balcony.
(that's really fun at night with the stars and the steam.)
The Suite sleeps ten........a whole family! This is
a "must see to believe" property.
The resort has two swimming pools......one at ground level
with glass walls and one on top of the east end of the building
which is part of the award-winning SPA. The top level
pool, exercise room, and SPA are for those 16 and older only.
Don't bring your pool towels, the resort provides them. Do
bring your laundry soap and fewer clothes; the resort provides
free washer and dryers on every floor. Restaurants, bars,
Sunday brunch, music on the patio are available.
Half-price coupons for all-day use of the Bungee Tramp, ZipRider,
Aerial Tram, and Alpine Slide are available on the
www.Snowbird.com webpage.
There are miles and miles of hiking trails and ATV's and
mountain bikes can be rented. The weather is cool and
comfortable....much cooler and ten times more beautiful than
Park City. (The spring flower festival is held the end of
July, for example.) Just imagine what it would be like to
spend a week amid the aspens as they change color in the fall!
The nice thing about this resort is that Dad can go to work
and commute back to the family in the evening. Kids can
still make their dancing lessons and Mom can do her Church work
and come back to breath-taking beauty. (This is a first
class resort.) We live in North Salt Lake and it took us
40 minutes from our front door to where we dropped off the car.
Valet service is provided and tipping is optional. Grocery
stores, shopping, etc. are just minutes away at the mouth of the
canyon.
We just couldn't be more thrilled to have the opportunity to
use and provide these terrific units to our friends. Some
of our family came up and planned to stay only a couple of days.
They stayed, then went home and did what they needed, and came
back. That's the way the resort affects all who come to play.
What a fun, family time. See you soon. APH
