What a wonderful place for a family skiing vacation! This was my first time using homeaway.com and ingrid was incredible to work with!! She gave me so much information about Park City, recommended places to eat, shop, things for us to do and see while we were there. She even got my family of 5 discounted lift tickets! The Condo was huge, with tons of room for my 3 teenagers to have their own space and my husband and I had our own bedroom and bathroom. It was a such a luxury to have the gondola right out the back door of the hotel and a place to check our skis every night. We all loved the pool and hot tub! I felt very spoiled! The Grand Summit is definitely the best place to stay at The Canyons! The ski area was Awesome! The snow was not great the week we were there but there is nothing like skiing long runs, with blue sky and lots of sunshine! We will have to come back next year to get the powder!! Thanks Ingrid! I consider this condo one of the best condos we have EVER stayed in! I would recommend it to everyone! The kids really want to come back next year and so do I!

Owner response:Hi Amy and Bruce, was an absolute pleasure having you and your family stay with us :-)) We would love to welcome you back any time - summer or winter! We do offer special rates and FREE nights for "repeat" guests in off-season

Thank you very much for all your help, advise and making the experience so easy. We loved the Condo and all the facilities. We stayed 10 days and didn't want to leave. The 3 of us loved the mountain, quiet village of The Canyons, day trips to Deer Valley, dinner at Park City, Wholefoods was great for food shopping and the Condo was just FAB. It maybe a long way from Australia, but it was worth the trip. Next time we will stay longer.

Owner response:Bruce, It was a pleasure having you and your family and we would love to have you any time. We are glad you enjoyed the location for easy ski-in,ski-out as much as our spacious unit. We certainly will always try to accomodate our returning guests (and sometimes are even able to throw in a "special") but please keep in mind that winter weeks book up early - sometimes as early as the winter before :-) All the best and a wonderful and prosperous 2012!

My family and I had a wonderful time at this condo. It was clean, well equiped, and offered all the amenities you expect from a 5 star resort. That includes 2 full baths, 2 fireplaces, fully equiped kitchen, could sleep 6 comfortably. The condo had a great view of the ski slopes. The spa included a heated outdoor pool, 3 hot tubs, suana, fitness center and steam room. We had access to the owners library which included a full kitchen, pool table, living and dining room, personal computer. We got to store our ski's in the owners storage area located a few feet from the back enterance. The business center offered complimentary boarding pass printing. The restaurant had great food and wonderful ambiance. The indoor heated garage was an added bonus. Room service staff was prompt and courtious. They even called us after our meal to see if we enjoyed our meal and needed anything else. I would highly recommend this condo. Thank you Christian and Ingrid.

My family had the best time! We loved the suite- it was clean, nice, had lots of space. We cooked in the kitchenette- which was well stocked. We had tons of space to lounge. Lots of space to store our ski gear and clothing. The fireplaces were fantastic! WE loved this location, and all it's amenities. We recommend this to anyone--we would return here in a second! Go, enjoy- you will love this place. Skiing, snow tubing, eating, shopping-- everything was Fantastic!

Owner response:Thank you for staying with us - we are glad you enjoyed our spacious and comfortable one-bedroom and all the luxury amenities provided by the hotel, right next to the gondola for easy ski-in/ski-out. Please stay with us again :-)

Return Stay

We spent last year in this unit and the owner was so helpful we decided to return again. Our family loves this location and loves skiing at the Canyons. The location is great as you are only 25 minutes from downtown SLC if you want to go down the mountain. Ingrid will answer all of your questions and her pricing is very fair -- I highly recommend selecting her unit. We have two little kids and the separate room was perfect for when they went to bed early -- and they loved the whirlpool tub! The snow was great and the resort has everything you'd want! Thanks Ingrid!

Owner response:Thank you, Shannon for choosing to stay with us again - and taking time out of your busy life to post a note for us :-) Always love to have you and your family - thanks for your patronage! Ingrid

We had a fabulous time. The unit was spacious, clean and perfect for our family of 4. This was our first time going through VRBO and Ingrid made us feel comfortable by answering our questions promptly and offering helpful advice. We loved the free wifi and Ihome docks. The two full baths were very usefull and we were able to make many meals in the kitchen. Laundry was fine, luckily there was always a free washer or dryer when we needed it. It was also nice that the clothes detergent, dishwasher detergent and liquid soap were provided. Underground parking was very convenient. It was such a great value, incredible actually.

Owner response:It was a pleasure having you and your family. I am happy I could make your stay a memorable and relaxing one and would love to welcome you back - either for summer/ fall with hiking, biking, golfing, white water rafting - endless opportunities - or for skiing next winter. Thank you for your trust and allowing us to share our comfortable unit with you - have a wonderful Spring :-)

Grand Summit Hotel review

Guest: Anonymous
Date of Stay: 01/20/11 Review Submitted: 01/27/11

My family and I stayed at Ingrid's unit in January 2011. We have stayed in perhaps a dozen vacation rentals in the last 5 years using VRBO and I can honestly say this was our best experience. Her unit is in great shape and is well-equipped. We were pleasantly surprised by the size of our 1 bedroom rental - it comfortably slept our family of 5 including our two older children (17 and 21 years old). The resort itself is 1st class. Everything you need for a great ski vacation - rentals, lift tickets, ski valet and storage - are located on site. The gondola and a covered chair lift are located immediately out the back door of the resort. The service is consistent with a 4 star resort. Finally, Ingrid was professional and easy to work with. I would highly recommend this rental and resort and plan to visit with my family again.

Ingrid's unit(s) were as advertised. Unit was well maintained and very clean. Accommodations were excellent. Nice view of pool and mountain. Grand Summit provides the best location and quality of accommodations of any property at The Canyons.

Best Thanksgiving

We stayed at the Canyons over Thanksgiving and this is the first chance I have had to write a review. We can't say enough about the area and the condo. It was everything we expected and more. We had a terrible trip out driving across the midwest in a blizzard with a car malfunction started our trip off on the wrong tone. When we finally got to the condo Ingrid had seen to it that a welcome cheese tray was waiting for us. She was terrific to work with and everyone on property was outstanding. We would definitely stay again, this time when there is skiing. The Condo was a great place to have our family Thanksgiving it will be one we remember for a very long time.

Owner response:Lori, it was a pleasure having you and your family. Happy, everything worked out fine at the end after an exhausting trip out there. Would love to have you again - certainly was a pleasure working with you :-) Have a great weekend - and thanks again for choosing to stay with us.

Ingrid was an absolute delight to work with. Prompt and very helpful responses to all queries. We were delighted with the unit. It is very well done and very well maintained with a lovely view of the mountains. The Grand Summit has everything you need right there. We loved it so much, we are going back next year for twice the duration.
