Map & Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Cottonwood Heights
Location! This complex has the best of both worlds - it is great for the owners and their family to visit because it is close to family members and close to all the activities they enjoy (including winter sports)....but also great as a vacation rental for others.....the unit is fully licensed as a tourist home (required by Cottonwood Heights).
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
The unit is so spacious and comfortable......the location for many special traditions with family and friends!
The location is ideal - right at the mouth of the Canyons so we can ski in 20 minutes, yet still in Salt Lake county with quick access to the freeway to go downtown or to Park City. Grocery stores and restaurants are close by as well.
Owner's Map of Cottonwood Heights
We have lived in Utah all our lives. We love the outdoors and love the SNOW! I have been involved in the vacation rental business for 20+ years....at one time managing over 90 vacation rentals. Now having my own and managing two for friends I can provide the attention to detail I was unable to provide when handling so many.
Because of my affiliation in the outdoor sports industry I provide many special extras in our properties to make them more comfortable and of course, MORE FUN!!!
I personally go to each unit before and after each stay to make sure everything is just right! If you have questions or concerns, just look at the guest comments!

This property exceeded all our expectations. It was spacious, clean and well appointed. The HUGE kitchen was a major bonus. Location was spot on too. Gas station, grocery, restaurants and skiing all well within reach. Everything you have at home, and more! Laundry on site too. Just awesome. We'll never stay in a hotel again.

Amazing Holiday Vacation!

My husband and 3 daughters (ages 16,13 & 9) stayed at the Canyon Racquet Club Condo this past holiday season and it was so perfect! We arrived on Christmas Eve to a clean, well-organized and cozy condo with Christmas lights, Christmas tree and a beautiful poinsetta all set out! We stayed through New Years Day and truly had one of our families favorite holiday vacations ever! The condo worked out great--plenty of space for the teenage daughters, great information on local restaurants, ski slopes, activities, etc. Everything was marked clearly so you knew exactly how to use hot tub, washer, fireplace, etc. Jennifer even offered to have groceries, ski passes and equipment delivered before our arrival. We loved the proximity to the mountains which were breathtaking. The condo just had the perfect ambience for a ski/winter vacation. We loved turning on the fire at night after warning up in the outdoor jacuzzi. Jennifer has done a top-rate job in managing & organizing her condo! We will certainly be returning again! Thanks for making our families' Christmas so memorable!

Thank you Jennifer for making this awesome condo available! The location was perfect...easy access to both canyons (and local restaurants, shopping, etc). During our stay, a monster storm closed Little Cottonwood Canyon (and the resorts...closed); had we stayed at the resorts we would have been SNOWED in on epic powder days. There were nine of us staying at the condo (two families...five kids). We never felt crowded; everyone had their own space to retreat to after a long day on the slopes. I would strongly recommend this condo to anyone visiting the SLC ski resorts. The condo has anything you could possibly want...hot tub, recreation (dart boart, foosball table, gigantic tv, wireless internet), well-stocked kitchen, comfy beds, two-car garage (ample parking) and a shotski! I spent much time researching condos before our trip and I can say this is the BEST condo availble!

Our group had a great week of skiing at the end of February. The condo is very comfortable and big enough for 8 adults. The location at the mouth of Big Cottonwood Canyon is simply perfect. 20" of fresh powder during the week were the icing on the cake for the pros in our group. We'll be back!

We really enjoyed our stay at your condo. It is very convenient to all of the major ski areas! And for the gourmets that are reading this note, it has the best equipped kitchen that we have used in the 25+ years we have skied the West. We look forward to our visit next year.

We had a fantastic week around Thanksgiving. The condo was very clean and equipped with everything we could think of! It was large enough to accomodate 8 adults and some small children with plenty of space in the kitchen and family room. The fireplace was a very nice touch and we used it a lot. We will definitely be back!

We looked at a number of different places to stay. Jennifer's place was the right selection. We had 6 unrelated adults on our annual ski trip and some of these were my clients so I wanted to make sure they were comfortable. Most of us own our own business so every morning the kitchen looked like an electronic sweatshop with all of our laptops. The wireless system was able to handle all of our laptops at once. There was plenty of space for everyone. The kitchen was well appointed with plenty of dishes and utensils. They even provide cozies for your beer. The "shotski" was a nice touch and the last time I saw one of those was in some apres ski bar in Veil. This place is minutes from the slopes and minutes from the interstate, decent restaurants and shopping. We used to stay downtown and drive to the slopes. Not anymore. You can't beat this place for waking up, looking at the snow reports over breakfast and picking a place to go.

Perfect location for all mountains. Situated in the back of the complex which is very quiet. This was great for 5 ski buddies who escape out West each year.The townhouse is large and the garage fit our Suburban with ski racks. We did a 4 day Super pass and skied Snowbird, Alta, Solitude and Brighton. Also went to Park city on the Fifth day. All mountains were a easy drive and next trip we plan to stay here at Jennifers place and go to Powder mountain, Snowbasin and the Canyons. Best Utah place we have stayed at by far.
