About this property

1.5 acres of seclusion, ski in out from deck.

4 Bedroom 3 Bathroom home adjacent to Brighton Ski Resort and 2 miles from Solitude Ski Resort. The living room has floor to ceiling windows bringing the outside in. Equally stunning views from the hot tub on covered wrap around deck. Gourmet kitchen with Viking oven and gas stove and cooktop. Has granite countertops, ample services ware, and inviting space to visit while cooking. Gas grill off kitchen is provided for grilling needs. We stock wood for a roaring fire and a private sauna sure to warm tired bodies after a day outdoors.

Located 45 minutes from Salt Lake International Airport, this property requires 4WD or all wheel drive with quality tires to access the back side of the home. Garage on main road is used when expecting a storm and roads can be plowed. Covered walkway from garage to home makes it a convenient walk. Groomed cross country skiing and snowshoe trails are less than a mile away from the home.

Solitude Ski Resort , located two miles down canyon, is a must for those wanting another alpine experience. Dining options are available at both resorts to meet the needs of even the most sophisticated palate.

Nice property overall, but the listing was misleading

The property was overall clean, well located, and the owner was easy to communicate with. However, the house was very cold a majority of the time, and the way the listing was advertised was misleading. The listing states there were more beds than there actually were and there was no foosball table. The owner did communicate with me after the booking that there were less beds than advertised, but they really shouldn’t market the property with more beds than there are. The property was conveniently located close to Brighton Ski Resort, which was great! The hot tub and sauna was also quite nice and the kitchen was well stocked with lots of things to cook with. I’d recommend this property if you’re looking to ski at Brighton or Solitude, but I would highly recommend to the owner that they should update the listing to better accurately list how many beds and amenities there are.

Great vacation home

We had an excellent time with our family and two other couples. The property is exactly as described and we definitely plan to go back. Because it is at the end of the canyon and Brighton does not have a large "village", be prepared to stay around the house, cook, ski, relax, etc. In fact, I'd rather be socked in there than dining out in a more touristy spot. The view and access to the slopes were probably our favorite parts but nothing else really disappointed. Nice kitchen, hot-tub, plenty of fire-wood, etc. Finally, the owners were very helpful and friendly with our many questions. Can't wait to go back.

6th consecutive year renting from MMP

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House is in good shape and everything is in working order. Nothing to complain about. Snow removal was prompt and ample firewood was provided. Plenty of cookware, utensils, silverware, and dishes in the kitchen. Once you arrive, there is nothing to worry about because all needs are anticipated and house is well organized. Great view from the hot tub!

Wonderful place, attentive management

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Property description was accurate, place was clean and beautiful, management responded to texts. I would absolutely recommend, and is in fact one of the few places I would like to go back. The property is just off of the ski trails for Brighton Resort, a nice mid-sized resort. Despite being so close, it feels nicely isolated. There is a front entrance to the garage which has an actual old mineshaft that you walk up (stairs) to get to the house. It's really neat. Property is spacious, two families stayed, but it could have easily been 3 with a great space downstairs for the kids with foosball table. The living room is great for apres ski to look out at the snow and trees and enjoy the fire. My only recommendation is to put a pocket door between the master bed and master bath.

Brighton in December

This mountain home nestled in the snow covered cedars was a white Christmas dream for our Alabama family. Adrienne was extremely attentive and communicated whenever necessary. All the beds were very comfortable with high end bedding. Her kitchen had a fabulous Viking stove and all the baking, cooking, and grilling utensils anyone would need. Her kitchen was WELL stocked with spices, oils, vinegars, coffee, and baking items such as powder and soda. Our family of seven cooked in two meals a day. Since we are novice skiers, we didn't attempt the ski in/out but easily walked to the slopes in our boots. The Brighton ski rentals were easy and accommodating. We used Harmon's grocery in Midvale because they deliver. However, if the weather is too bad, you may need to make another plan. The views from the windows allow beauty from all sides. Her TV was set to have all the channels, and we enjoyed music with Alexa. The master bath has heated floors and the sauna and hot tub were added bonuses. Adrienne communicated often in regard snow removal. If this cabin was closer, we'd rent it often. Enjoy in 2022!

Great ski house

We truly enjoyed staying at Adrienne's house in Brighton. The house was clean and comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, and the location is great if you are skiing at Brighton. The house is set back up the hill and off the street, so it feels very secluded. The house has two accesses by car, in the back allowing for easy ingress/egress and a garage on the street with a covered walkway up to the house. During our stay there was a large snow storm, so it was great to be abler to park in the garage and have direct access to the main road, otherwise we would have been snowed in. Adrienne was very responsive and helpful when we had questions. We would stay again next time we ski at Brighton.

Brighton is the jam!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our overall stay at Chez Louisa was wonderful! Our party consisted of six adults and we didn't even use the downstairs area. The house was well stocked, clean and well-maintained. The ski in/ski out access was absolutely a killer even for beginner skiers! The view from the main floor living area and the hot tub was spectacular! We always love going to Molly Greens for after ski activities and the breakfast sandwiches at Milly's can't be beat. The best asset and the biggest drawback to the property is the setting. We did not realize that the house served as the public ski access for the neighborhood and we had foot traffic within a foot of the windows of the master bedroom and both main level bathrooms. Needless to say we kept the blinds shut in all those rooms. We even had someone park in our driveway overnight and into the next day! Given this intrusion the secluded setting was not quite as magical. A simple approach may be to have cones with a rope and sign that state no public access.

Great location-a bit challenging to find in the dark

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was a great layout and had amazing privacy for the proximity to the ski runs. The first day we wrestled with the 3 and 4 year olds in the group to get them to the ski run and found it was easier to walk to the lift from the garage below. The option to ski back in was great though, and the adults traded off watching the kids at the cabin later in the day and took advantage of the ski-in-ski-out onto the blue run. The house was clean, comfortable, and we would love to come back next year!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay here, and especially liked that the kitchen was well equipped. A few tips for others considering staying: - you have to be organized and plan/buy all food you need before travelling up to the canyon! One tiny store with nothing much available. You can pre-order food online at the large Smiths supermarket and pick it up on your way through. - Was not really ski in and out when we were there as not enough snow coverage. - Don't make our mistake and attempt the driveway in a car without really good snow tires. It took an hour and a half to get out with significant digging and pushing and no help from the management. This really colored our feeling about the stay. It hadn't snowed so we were kind of surprised to be in that predicament. No salt, sand or help nearby. Instead park down on the main road and take the stairs in the covered walkway (known as the "mineshaft") - Watch out for inexperienced snowboaders on the slopes. Three of our party knocked over for no good reason... - There is a good local bus service that can take out in and out of SLC for $4.50 each way. - Enjoy the hot tub - its great!

It was a truly fun and relaxing vacation.

Due to weather we could not drive up to the rental but had access to a garage below and enjoyed climbing stairs up through an awesome mineshaft. Along with the high elevation it left some of us a bit winded. Something to keep in mind for some individuals. All in all our family loved it and it made for a very unique and memorable vacation.

About the host

Hosted by Adrienne Aldous

Host profile image
My grandfather built this house, and I learned to ski on this hill. I enjoy seeing happy people who appreciate the magic of this area.

Why they chose this property

I love the pristine environment Brighton village affords. It has very little commercialization in our area. Property is located on 1.5 acres and is adjacent to the ski resort. While it is no longer groomed to the deck you can easily ski 100 yards to the bottom of Great Weatern Lift and return from ski run. You will fall in love with it!

What makes this property unique

It feels like you are in a tree house while sitting in living room. There are breathtaking views of mount Millicent and the ski hill. There is privacy perched above the main road.
