Bill and Karolina were quick to respond to our inquiries, worked to accommodate our early check in request and provided a well appointed, comfortable apartment to relax in after skiing.
The host couple is super friendly and easy to reach via text. The house was very clean and stocked with all sorts of bathroom essentials. They also left us a welcome basket of fruit, snacks, and fresh bagels from a local store! All of us (kids and adults alike) loved the game room too!! We would highly recommend The Spruce Moose
Very nicely appointed with a complete kitchen. It's fantastic for a ski vacation with lots of room. Hosts are excellent, responsive and make sure the process is easy and seemless. I would not hesitate to recommend to others and plan to return when I'm in the area again.
Property as described. Extremely clean and well stocked. Thank you for all of the extras and making our stay comfortable. We will definitely rent again when we are in the area.

My sons and I really enjoyed our stay! Bill and Karolina were wonderful hosts who thought of every detail to make our stay comfortable. We would definitely return!
The Moose was perfect for us. We wanted a location that was close enough to Snowbird and Alta for skiing but did not cost as much as staying at the resorts. The property was beautiful and clean and the hosts did such a great job of stocking the bathroom and kitchen for us. I highly recommend staying here.

We stayed in the property while skiing Alta and Solitude ski resorts. It was conveniently located for both. This was by far the most thoughtful short term rental we have ever used. The apartment was extremely spacious and well stocked with everything you could need! The owners thought of everything! We will definitely stay here again!
We enjoyed staying here, it's a place in a nice quiet neighborhood and easy short drive to both Cottonwood canyons.
The hosts are very caring and provide lots of bonus food (even breakfast) and toiletries. They live right above you in case anything comes up.
As a bonus for any moose lover, there's very tasteful moose-themed decor throughout.
My husband and I stayed for 4 nights while helping our son work on home renovations. Everything was perfect and as described. Very nice neighborhood, kitchen was stocked with treats, fresh fruit, and snacks, and the bathroom stocked as well. Host goes above and beyond to make guests feel comfortable. Very clean, nicely decorated, and the sauna was amazing after a hard day working on our son's home! Would definitely stay here again.

The Spruce moose has everything you need! Centrally located to both Little and Big Cottonwood Canyons for skiing. The apartment is super cute, clean and the host have insured that you have everything you need! There was a guest basket of fruits, and snacks, cooking oils, teas and coffees, and body washes, hair care, cotton balls and such in the bathroom. Everything you could think of was available!

They really think of everything at the Spruce Moose! We had all we needed... and then some! Little touches like breakfast stuff, snacks... The property is in excellent condition and obviously well cared for. Covered parking was a huge plus since it dumped snow on us! Located very close to both Cottonwood canyons made it super convenient to get to the mountains. Would definately stay here again.

The apartment is spacious and well maintained. The owners are communicative to make sure your stay is as pleasant as possible. They go above and beyond by leaving toiletries and other household items you could need during your stay. The kitchen had been stocked with snacks and drinks. This was our best place to date that we have stayed. Thank you guys for being such good hosts.
The apartment was clean, comfortable and very well appointed.
The apartment entrance is under 24 hour video surveillance. The apartment is on the lower level of a house..

Thank you David for taking the time to leave us a kind review. Yes, the outside area of the home is video monitored for safety. VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: Guest’s private patio area as well as the apartment front door entrance and apartment itself are not monitored. The only place that is under video surveillance is the garage door entrance before the guest's private patio area. Also, as mentioned in the listing, the Spruce Moose is a lower level apartment of our home. We provide complete privacy unless you reach out and need our help, otherwise we hope our guests enjoy themselves and have an excellent experience visiting, as so many guests have.

We stayed at the Spruce Moose for 5 days over our teen son’s spring break. The apartment was inviting and comfortable with a large kitchen/dining/living area that’s great for socializing. Everything is fresh and modern and the beds are comfy. Bill and Karolina left extras to make our visit special, like a fruit basket and snacks. The location is extremely convenient to Snowbird/Alta and Solitude/Brighton. We also skied at Park City one day and that was also only a 35min drive.
We definitely will stay at the Spruce Moose again in the future!
I can not say enough positive things about our stay here. The location was 4 miles away from the road that takes you up to Brighton/Solitude, and it is very convenient to the bus stops. The accommodations were well appointed, and the TV worked well. WIFI worked well, and everything felt very clean. It is about a 30 min drive into downtown SLC, and it was a 48 drive to Park City. The space is quite large and would accommodate 5 people easily. The sauna and gas fire were nice added touches. The owner takes a lot of care to leave items that travelers often forget, and there were a variety of other complementary sundries. If you are not looking to stay in the city or pay the high prices associated with on-mountain accommodations, this will also satisfy that. I would highly recommend and would stay there again.

My experience was fantastic. Bill and Karolina were super helpful in every way possible. They had great recommendations for family and kid friendly activities in and around the area. The home is located in a quiet and clean neighborhood with friendly neighbors. Everything we needed was accommodated for us, and if they didn’t have it, they asked around the neighborhood to get it for us. When we arrived there was food to eat after a hectic day of traveling that came in clutch. There are detailed instructions and explanations of how things work in the house. However, if I needed anything I knew I could call or text and would be assisted promptly. Privacy is respected and the house was very comfortable. If you’re planning on skiing or snowboarding you’re within 25 minutes of any of the 4 best resorts in the area.

Wonderful property. The owners have all sorts of little items available - everything from some fresh fruit to various toiletries to pens, pencils and duct tape! everything was well stocked (pots, pans, towels, etc) lots and lots of notes to ensure that you know how to work all of the items in the facility (coffee makers, TV, heating, etc) - all very helpful. Loved the fact that some of the outlets are preset with USB ports - and they have an octopus cable with multiple interfaces on it to support virtually all of your electronics (huge if one has forgotten their chargers!). Although this is a basement unit, you would never know it - wonderfully set up. I had constant email/text interchanges with the owners - always very fast in responding. We experienced no issues at all. I highly recommend the Spruce Moose.

Home away from home
We stayed here with our two 15 year old boys to ski Alta and Snowbird. It’s a great location and everything was perfect. We skied, came back to unwind and eat dinner then watch a movie or play games. Drove to Park City one night to walk around and have dinner. Beds are comfortable and it has a large open kitchen/living area for everyone to be together. Great kitchen to make breakfast and dinner that included most kitchen staples. That’s a real perk! There were also snacks to eat and bathroom toiletries provided. Very thoughtful. Nothing was overlooked. Laundry facilities and a place to keep all our ski stuff separate was nice. Bill and Karolina were easily accessible to answer any questions. They made sure we were happy and that we were enjoying our stay and vacation.
When we travel, we want a place like home and Spruce Moose was the ideal place to stay. Just as described and personal touches made it even better. Would highly recommend and would come back. Thank you!

Thank you so much for taking the time to let the world know you and your family had such a great experience visiting Spruce Moose. We are very happy to see you mention it was "Home away from home", we feel that’s the best compliment because we want visitors to always feel at home. We are always eager to help and do our best to answer questions quickly so it’s nice to know you thought we were easily accessible as well.

We have stayed in vacation rentals in various places for years but the Spruce Moose is unparalleled. What makes this such an enjoyable rental is the impeccable attention to detail, from the perfectly appointed ski mudroom entry to the well- stocked kitchen and clear written instructions placed thought the unit, Bill and Karolina have anticipated every possible need a guest may have. (At one point I needed a blank sheet of paper for a work Zoom and I thought “finally something this place doesn’t have” but it turned out there was a folder of printer paper in the kitchen drawer!!!) Spotless and well organized, in quiet and safe residential neighborhood, this is an ideal base for skiing Alta/Snowbird and Brighton. Highly recommend!
My husband and our friends stayed here for a week of skiing. The place is so comfortable and charming. The owners have put tons of effort into making the experience fun and enjoyable. The little touches were so thoughtful. Only 20-30 minutes to ski resorts!

About the host
Hosted by Bill & Karolina
Hi, my name is Bill, my wife is Karolina and we have a child. We have also always had a pup and cat as part of our family too. Karolina and I both love hiking, fishing, skiing, snowboarding, and traveling together as often as possible. Karolina is from Poland and I am from Georgia. We met near where we both lived in downtown Atlanta and a year later we were married. Karolina is a Veterinarian and I have a T-shirt art business.
For our 10th wedding anniversary we visited a BNB for the first time in Savanah GA and were hooked. We immediately started thinking about how amazing it would be to live in a destination location that complemented our adventurous lifestyle and at the same time, be able to share our home as a BNB for others to enjoy. We started planning our permanent get-way to live close to Mountains with plenty of summer and winter activities and fell in love with Utah. We packed and headed west in 2016 and here we are!
We welcome you and your guests to the Spruce Moose Mountain Retreat, a gorgeous place to rest your mind and body after a day filled with adventure.
We look forward to you visiting soon,
Bill and Karolina
Why they chose this property
Our journey to Utah—and ultimately to creating the “Spruce Moose Mountain Retreat” (Lower Level Apartment)—was inspired by our love for the mountains and outdoor adventure. One of our favorite places is Zakopane, a beautiful mountain town in Poland known for its year-round activities. After spending time there, we dreamed of living somewhere similar. Through extensive research, we discovered that Salt Lake City, Utah offered everything we were looking for—skiing, hiking, mountain biking, fishing, camping, and more. What sealed the deal were glowing reviews from world-class winter athletes calling Utah the “mecca for skiing” with “The Greatest Snow on Earth” and terrain for all skill levels. SLC truly embodies one word for us: ADVENTURE. Once we chose Utah, we searched for a property that would bring our vision to life. We found the perfect home—designed with a completely private lower-level apartment that had its own entrance, ideal for hosting guests while giving them peace and privacy. From there, we began shaping the “Spruce Moose Mountain Retreat” with great care. Drawing inspiration from BNBs we’ve stayed at over the years, we combined thoughtful details with our own personal touches to create a warm, comfortable space where guests can relax after a day of skiing and exploring. We’re thrilled to share this space with fellow travelers and look forward to being a part of your next great adventure—whether you're here to hit the slopes, hike the trails, or simply unwind.
What makes this property unique
Nestled in a peaceful, upscale neighborhood, the Spruce Moose Mountain Retreat – Lower Level Apartment offers a serene escape just minutes from world-class outdoor adventure. Thoughtfully designed with comfort in mind, the apartment features comfy furnishings, plush bedding, premium linens, and a fully equipped kitchen perfect for preparing anything from a quick breakfast to a gourmet dinner. Unwind in your own private patio and yard area, complete with outdoor seating and a BBQ grill—perfect for warm evenings under the stars. For deeper relaxation and recovery after a day on the slopes or trails, enjoy the private sauna, ideal for soothing sore muscles and warming up after mountain adventures. This retreat is also perfect for romantic getaways—imagine a quiet walk or bike ride through the scenic neighborhood, with panoramic mountain views and sparkling glimpses of Salt Lake City in the distance. Location is everything, and this one has it all: just 3–4 miles from Big and Little Cottonwood Canyons, where you'll find four renowned ski resorts, endless hiking, and stunning alpine beauty. You’re also within minutes of restaurants, grocery stores, golf courses, and entertainment options. Downtown Salt Lake City is just a short drive away for dining, nightlife, and cultural landmarks.
