Where to Stay
A 40-minute drive from Salt Lake City, Montage Deer Valley (pictured) is palatial without any hint of stuffiness. Guests are free to mosey through the resort’s cozy wood- and leather-adorned Vista Lounge—sit by the fireplace, shoot some pool, nurse a cocktail—then head to Spa Montage’s serene sauna, steam room, and hot tubs, all while rocking a plush robe. The ski-in, ski-out hotel boasts daily s’mores (with homemade marshmallows), impeccable service (the staff refills your humidifier each night!), and impressive restaurants (the Apex breakfast buffet is spot-on). Oh, and its enormous mascots, if you will, Monty and Parker (Bernese mountain dogs), make Montage feel even more like home.
This boutique hotel is in the heart of downtown Park City, offering historic charm (it was formerly a school, as the name infers). Hundred-year-old crystal chandeliers, antique French tables, and sumptuous white Pratesi linens and down-feather pillows are just some of the mainstays in the 12 rooms and suites. There’s a heated pool carved into the hillside with aspens and blue spruce peppered around the space, a tucked-away spa, and a ski lounge ripe for some après-ski boozing and noshing.
