This was my first booking through VRBO. This home really was a great fit for location, amenities, style and price. We booked 6 months ahead and were contacted within an hour by the host. During the 6 months, we had several communications with the host who was always very responsive to requests. We were 16 family members, some local, some driving 9 hours, some driving 12 hours, and some flying in, all on the 23rd of Dec. for a long Christmas week. Check-in time is listed as 3pm, which feels a bit late in the day, and the locals received permission from the host to enter the property early to begin stocking food, etc. Host indicated that I would be sent codes on the morning of our check-in day to access the home. We didn't receive the codes as promised. We were driving in from Denver and all day long, kept attempting to contact the host, with no success. The locals couldn't get in with the food. We arrived right at check-in time of 3pm, and had no access. Since the host was not responding to our repeated calls, I called VRBO support. I was asked for all the details, (they attempted to contact the host),was given a case number and then told that I was being transferred to someone "who had the necessary skills" to deal with my situation. The next agent, asked for all the details again, attempted to contact the host, was given another different case number and was then told that I was being transferred to someone "who had the necessary skills" to deal with my situation. The third agent asked for all the details, attempted to contact the host, and then told me that VRBO was going to put me up in a hotel as an emergency solution. Well, by this time, my wife and I had been sitting in the driveway of the home for an hour past check-in, with absolutely no forward progress, and the "skills" that were brought to my aid were those to book a hotel for 16 members of my family, which I laughed at as ludicrous on the holiday weekend of the year. I asked for the host's address and said I would be happy to go there and remind the host that I had paid for this privilege 6 months prior. I was told that VRBO doesn't have that information. I suggested that by this time, I was very close to calling emergency services and showing them my documentation and asking them to break into the home for me. It's now 4:30 (and my blood pressure is about the same) VRBO magically managed to contact "a colleague" of the host and got me some codes. Unforgiveable.

Historic, warm, immaculate, grand

This historic turn of the century home was completely updated and you could tell has been cared for but all the previous family members who have owned this property. The historical document located on the wall provide a great detail as to the families who have lived in this home. The rooms were spacious, the kitchen was large, the living and bedrooms had televisions with access to all the channels and programs. I don’t know what else to say except I would love to rent it again. Super quiet rooms with heavy solid doors. Woodworking appears original and immaculate. Thank you so much.

Beautiful house at a great location!

We enjoyed the stay very much! The house is cozy and nicely decorated. The top floor with bunk beds, huge bean bags in front of TV, air hockey, and foos balls was a big hit! Very close to coffee shops, cathedral, temple square, state capital, and city creek. Will definitely stay again!

Why they chose this property

This stunning American Four Square, Craftsman-style home was built in 1909. They certainly don't build homes like this anymore. No expense was spared! The attention to detail is impeccable with the original hand-crafted staircases, woodwork, and hardware throughout. This home has been well cared for and is like stepping back in time. It is extremely spacious with 4500 square feet and 10 foot ceilings. The solid oak flooring with both radiant heat and central air make it a comfortable space during any season.

This home is certainly will not disappoint. For the all that this home offers, at such a shocking price, it is the best deal on VRBO, hands down!

What makes this property unique

The kitchen and three bathrooms have all been remodeled for modern convenience with beautiful custom travertine tile floors and showers. The kitchen is fully-stocked with a microwave, blender, coffee-maker, and toaster. You'd have everything you would need for cooking a feast for the whole group and a beautiful formal dining room to enjoy it in. Just add the groceries!

There are two living rooms with plenty of space for everyone to spread out and relax. The front living area features a 1906 parlor grand piano that, if the doors are opened, can fill the whole home with music. It is also a great space to shut the doors for meetings or a quite nap. The back living area has a huge high-end velvet couch that is awesome for gathering to watch the game.

The master bedroom features a king-sized velvet bed with a TV, walk-in closet, and en-suite bathroom. Two sets of gorgeous double-doors lead out to a beautiful balcony with plenty of seating to relax and read a book as you soak in some sun. All three of the other bedrooms on the 2nd floor feature queen-sized beds with 3000 thread-count premium sheets and down comforters with fresh, clean duvet covers, and cozy velvet blankets.

The entire third floor is bunkroom/playroom with enough beds for eight people. There are foosball and air hockey tables, a TV, and a chest full of games for the older kids. To entertain the little ones, there are toy boxes full of blocks, hot-wheel tracks/cars, and a bay window with a chair and a bookcase full of children's books.

Out front there is a covered porch with both dining and lounging options that overlooks First Avenue and the roses and irises that surround the property. There is a café directly across the street for an early morning coffee or a barbecue out back for an outdoor dinner on a summer night.
