Whispering Pines Cabin by Cottonwood Lodging - LOCAL EXCELLENCE IN HOSTING!
BEFORE YOU BOOK PLEASE READ From November 1- April 15 please be aware that the Utah Department of Transportation and Town of Brighton rules about canyon travel require snow tires (3PMSF) or chains to make it safely up the canyon and to the home. Snow plowing on neighborhood roads is provided by local vendors and intermittent. Cottonwood Lodging does not have control over snow plowing. DO NOT TAKE UBERS OR LYFTS TO THIS PROPERTY. Plan to check in between 4pm - 8pm at the latest, to avoid unplowed roads if it is storming. Please note that this home can accommodate ONLY 2 vehicles.
Winter Guided Arrival: - At the request of the town of Brighton to ensure that no one gets stuck or lost and disturbs the locals, a staff member will meet you on the main road and guide you to your property. Plan to check in between 4pm - 8pm at the latest. This ensures we can provide assistance if necessary and helps to avoid unplowed roads if it is storming. Please do not arrive on your own even if you have stayed with us before. This keeps a positive relationship with the neighbors who appreciate it.
Whispering Pines is managed by locally owned and operated property manager Cottonwood Lodging Company where the guest experience is most important. Please reach out for information about the area and other services offered by Cottonwood Lodging.

Reviewer Comments:
Really enjoyed this cozy spot close to Solitude and Brighton. Nice to not have to fight the Canyon traffic after all the great snow fall. Clean, quiet, and comfy. The access requires good tires in winter! The staff were over the top helpful and friendly. Great on-going outreach and support. All good!
Overall it was a good experience. There were a few things at the property that could use improvement but nothing major. Upstairs bathroom wasn't able to lock, rugs were slipping around, very uneven floor downstairs. And the parking could have been more clearly marked. But we very much enjoyed our stay.

We’re glad to hear you enjoyed your stay overall! We appreciate your feedback and are reviewing the bathroom lock, rug placement, and parking signage. The uneven flooring is due to the home’s natural settling over time and is not a structural concern, but we understand it can be noticeable. Thanks for staying with us, we’d be happy to host you again in the future!

Reviewer Comments:
This property needs a warning label: these are not ROADS to the cabin but narrow paths with vegetation on both sides making it difficult to navigate. The tvs never worked - apprently need very specific instructions on how to work them. BEautiful scenery but you don't want to be there in a rainstorm if you need to go back down the mountain.
An univited neighbor harasser made my stay uncomfortable and when notified nothing was done to remedy the situation. Left a horrible impression of the property and its neighbors.

Hi B! We were able to talk to this neighbor, their intentions was to be welcoming and friendly. We apologize that it did not come across that way to you. We were under the impression that you had a lovely time other than that instance and hope that when you look back on this trip, you can remember the great moments!
The management company was amazing and took great care of us!

We enjoyed the location and overall our stay. Comfortable, cozy, warm, nicely decorated. High on the mountain with great view. An AWD is highly recommended and I even used a pair of snowsocks which were kindly provided by the owners. Great service by the management!

Good location
Had some trouble with check in and the cleaners.Arrived and house was not clean. And meet up for getting to the house did not go smoothly. However they discounted me and made it right for the cleaners mistakes. Great views and fun getting to the house (if you have the right vehicle). I would stay again

This was a wonderful summer getaway from the Texas heat! Great deck for morning coffee or an afternoon glass of wine or cocktail. Close to many summer activities including great hikes, mountain biking or taking beautiful scenic drives. Cabin is as described and management company was very communicative throughout the entire process. We highly recommend for anyone wanting to explore this part of our world!

Hi Robert! Thanks for sharing. Glad you enjoyed the scenery, it is a gorgeous view! We try to ensure vehicle preparedness before arrival and are there to help if anything goes awry, so thank you again for the insight. Looking forward to any future stays with us!
Perfect family cabin. Be aware if you prefer eating home , or you like home cooking , there is not really big grocery store around. And if you run out of grocery during the storm , you will be stuck without food sources , unless you use food delivery. Overall cabin has everything you need. Make sure during winter use 4WD vehicle and have chains in your trunk just in case the conditions gets severe.

Hi Natalia! We highly recommend planning meals and bringing groceries with you to any of our homes as there are only small general markets nearby. We do not suggest food delivery services attempt to access our homes in the winter as the risk of them not having the proper vehicle to drive on the mountain roads in the snow can jeopardize our business license. Thanks for sharing, we look forward to any future stays with us!

Hi James. Love that you were cozy! I apologize if the laundry was leaking, we are happy to send over a member of our maintenance team if we are alerted of any issues. We'd be happy to welcome you to stay with Cottonwood Lodging again!
We had a great stay. The place was clean and the space was perfect. The views of the mountains and sunsets were wonderful. In the winter, do be sure that you have the means to get there. We have AWD and had chains. When we lost a chain on our drive, the property manager helped us pick up a new set that we bought online through O'Reilly's, so we'd be in good shape for the ice and snow. Such great service. Thank you Marissa for the help and for a great stay!
