About this property
***Luxury Mountainside Retreat***
When we decide to take a vacation, we want to go someplace we enjoy...a place we can relax and unwind with family. We're sure you feel the same. Whether you want to relax, see the sights, fish, hike, kayak, swim, boat, snowmobile or snow ski, Utah is the perfect place! And of course, while we're vacationing, we want clean, comfortable accommodations and our home in Sandy fits that description. The home is close to dining and shopping, close to the ski resorts and about 20 minutes from the heart of beautiful Salt Lake City. It is clean, spacious, well maintained and very comfortable.
The minute you step through the door, you'll feel totally comfortable and at home! Kick off your shoes and relax for a minute or two. Kick back in the living room OR the theatre room OR enjoy the view from the deck or the front porch OR play a quick game of pool OR take a soak in the hot tub. As you can see by all the OR'S, there is something for everyone in YOUR HOME AWAY FROM HOME!!!
The spacious kitchen has everything you need to prepare an awesome meal or a quick snack. There are plenty of dishes, flatware, glasses and cups plus a variety of pots and pans. Spices, napkins, food storage bags, foil, plastic wrap, paper towels, sponges and trash can liners are available in the spacious pantry. Also stored in the pantry are many small appliances including coffee maker, toaster, 2 large and 2 small crockpots, griddle and waffle maker. Also, the pantry is home to a blender, hand mixer, juicer and electric tea kettle. Larger crowd for meals? No worries. There is plenty of sit down dining including a breakfast bar for 4, a dining table for 8 and a larger dining table for 12-14 people...perfect for larger families. The spacious pantry and the cupboard storage is endless...there's a place for anything and everything you bring. If you choose to BBQ outside, there is a BBQ and extra propane in the garage.
The bedrooms are spacious with lots of closet and dresser space. There are extra blankets and pillows in the closets. For babies...two cribs, a high chair and baby gates so they will be very comfortable. All linens are professionally laundered and sanitized. .
The house has a gas furnace/AC. For cooler winter nights, there are 2 gas fireplaces; one in the theatre room and one in the living room.
After a day of sightseeing, skiing, hiking or whatever...you'll enjoy a great night's rest in any one of 13 comfortable beds. Too excited to sleep just yet? Well, you can relax and enjoy TV in the living room, in your bedroom or in the theatre room on a 10-foot drop down screen. You can also enjoy the lights of the city and some quiet time on the deck PLUS there is an awesome view of the Wasatch Mountains from the front porch. As a finishing touch, you can take a relaxing soak in the hot tub (ready at 103 degrees) while enjoying the view of the city lights. Now you are ready for a good night's rest and another adventurous day tomorrow! Before breakfast you might want to sit on the deck or take a peek out the windows and see the deer feasting on the lawn, apple tree and peach tree.
Wondering about parking? Not a problem. The driveway is flat so you can park 6+ cars PLUS a spacious 3-car garage with remote door openers and a graveled area at the north end of the property.
The guest information book on the table contains helpful information about the house including fireplace instructions and the WiFi passwords. And, of course, the owners are available 24/7 to answer any questions you may have. There is a video posted on this site that will show you the property inside and outside.
Family is very important to us and all vacations create special memories that last a lifetime. That is why we make our home family friendly whether it be a family of 6 or as many as 20. Enjoy and thanks!!!

About the host
Hosted by Mary or David Wagner
We lived in the home for about 10 years and loved every minute. We were close to shopping, dining, schools and church plus summer and winter activities. We now live in California but are at our "Utah home away from home" about every 6 weeks. We clean, supply, and maintain the home the way we would like it if we still lived there. We strive to make sure our guests are comfortable and have everything they need. We thoroughly enjoy sharing our home with families and feel creating family memories is sooo important which you will do in our home. We are always grateful for any comments and suggestions from our guests.
What makes this property unique
Our home is well stocked, clean and well maintained. But the best thing we have to offer is the property. There is an acre of lawn, lots of parking and best of all the view. You can be in the backyard, looking out the windows or be on the deck or front porch and the view is always awesome!! The front faces the Wasatch Mountains where you'll find some of the best ski resorts in the US. The back faces the Oquirrh Mountains and the view of the city is spectacular even when you're sitting in the hot tub. The property is also frequently visited by deer.
