Suggestions
The only problem we had was with the oven. It seems like a new style but the are no instructions for operating it. We put food in to warm for a meal we hosted for the wedding party but it automatically turns off and the food was cold. Everything else was good.

Perfect Roomy Winter Cabin!
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: The cabin was better than the photos! Just driving to the cabin was a beautiful experience with almost 20 feet of snow on both sides. The cabin was large and clean and had everything we needed. The hot tub was just the right temperature and was cool to relax and watch the snowcats do there thing at night. The property management company was very accommodating and if I could give 10 stars I would. We will absolutely be back and thank you for a great trip!!

One word: Incredible
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: We rented Uinta for a 9-day ski/snowboard trip with a group of friends. The place was truly awesome. Very roomy, comfortable and greatly situated close to both Brighton and Solitude. Carole and her team were a pleasure to work with and the place was well tended to during our stay, including someone coming to check the hot tub every few days. Our stay couldn't have been better. Just be sure to rent a 4x4 or you may have a little trouble getting stuck coming up the driveway ;-)

The Perfect Snowy Cabin
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: We were very impressed by the Uinta cabin! It easily accommodated our large family of 10! The cupboards were well stocked and the kitchen was well laid out to cook and still be part of the family! We spent a lot of time on the deck in the hot tub and cozied around the huge fireplace playing games! The management staff were wonderful and were there to help or bring anything we needed, fortunately for us, we didn’t need anything! The driveway was shoveled and blown daily, making it easily accessible for vehicles! We were beyond impressed and will definitely be back again!

Cozy
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Not bad. A bit dated, but didn't lack for anything. Only complaints are: 1) Nobody plows the long, narrow driveway. The deck is shoveled every day, but the driveway just piles up. 2) The 4th bedroom is actually a walled-in porch. It's warm enough, but not really private. 3) The pump on the hot-tub cycles LOUDLY every hour or so. Probably just old. That porch/bedroom is right next to the tub, so it's a problem.

Spring break ski trip
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Property was good location at Brighton. The reason we rented it was because of the ski in/ski out option. The problem is that it wasn’t what we expected. You had to walk a distance which is not clearly marked and need to do black runs to get to the chair lift. Great for experienced skiers but not for beginner/intermediate skiers. The cabin is cozy but spending a little bit on better mattresses, blankets, sheets, pillows, maybe new kitchenware and a new charge to replace the broken one. Also there is a foot massager out for use which shocked my son when trying to use it. Small changes would easily increase my rating to 4.5 stars.

High Altitude Serenity
This is a comfortable cabin in a heavily forested area. We had a few rain showers each day but due to the time of year, the storms built up throughout the morning with brief rain in the afternoon. The cabin is situated within walking distance to the Brighton ski lifts and hiking trails. There is a general store and cafe nearby. They have a few basics... including canned oxygen :) The hot tub is dated and the jets are not overly powerful but the water was crystal clear and the beauty of looking up into mature Aspen trees cannot be beat. The area is very quiet even with how crazy busy the Brighton resort is every weekend. We enjoyed hiking the various trails found nearby. The kitchen has everything you need for preparing and serving meals. A doe and her fawn visited every morning and a family of chipmunks dwells in the rocks directly behind the house. The hosts are great and respond to texts within a few minutes. The large wood pile in the garage has a strong odor but it cannot be sensed in the upstairs main house. There is definitely a summer bug problem this year but we were warned so it wasn't a surprise. We enjoyed our high altitude stay in a beautiful cabin in a beautiful location.

Christmas Break Skiing
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Property was in a good location for skiing at Brighton. We were able to walk 200-300 yards to the access for the slope. Had to use a neighbors driveway that was posted as no trespassing. Not sure if management has worked this out with the homeowner. Cabin was not in good repair. Several rooms lacked heat and we used space heaters provided. 4th bedroom was a finished porch and access was awkward. Lack of hot water was an issue. We were 6 men so women would have a bigger problem. Overall condition of cabin was rough and it appeared that repairs/construction was ongoing. Not a bad place to stay but for the money much more was expected.

Great Stay at Uinta
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an incredible stay at Uinta over the holidays. My husband and I are SLC locals who ski Brighton, but we brought in our family from out of town and could not have been happier to spend a week in the Brighton Woods! Carole and Sean (maintenance) went out of their way to make us comfortable while we were there, especially impressive considering we stayed over Christmas. Huge props to Sean for arriving every morning to shovel the deck/manage the upkeep around the house in the snow and cold-what a gem! I did leave only 3 stars for 'general condition' as the refrigerator was broken during our stay. Sean provided coolers, but at this price, and with this level of luxury, we expected to have such a major appliance in working order. Carole was very apologetic, and as helpful as she could possibly be, but that needs to be fixed. Otherwise-if you are considering this property-just go for it! You won't be disappointed by the location, the gorgeous interior, the amenities, or the exceptional management. My entire family hasn't stopped talking about how perfect our stay was-we're already hoping to come back in 2019!

Amazing stay in Brighton!
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: We traveled 2 families (4 adults, 4 kids under 6) to Brighton for the kids first ski trip. We loved the resort and this home. It was so spacious and had everything you could ever need. Such a nice bonus to have things such as olive oil, kitchen spices, dish soap, laundry needs, etc. We loved spending our days on the mountain and evenings at this lovely home. The location is perfect, just note worthy hills for little Kids you would need to drive to drive which was no big deal. Thank you again!

Great ski trip home! Spacious, comfortable, beautiful views
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: The Uinta Lodge is a great place to rent for ski trips with a large family or large friend groups. The home has comfortable beds, awesome areas for games and spending time together after hitting the slopes. The only issues we had were the snowblower in the garage didn’t function properly and we had a few (3) mice get into our luggage. All in all what a beautiful place to rent for a ski trip at Brighton!

Overall, a great rental.

Great for our family gathering
Rating Details: The property manager was very 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: Overall the house worked well for our family gathering. There are a few things that didn't quite meet my expectations. The lighting is very dated and doesn't give off much light. Perhaps that's part of the log cabin charm. The screens didn't fit tightly in the windows so we were fighting off flies. And the smell from the wood pile in the garage was not great. Those items aside, great place, great location, fun time.

Designed to hunker down
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: If you enjoy sleeping in, being lazy, reading a book by the window, or zone out in the hot tub, this is the place; it took a bit of energy to peel myself away to go snowboarding. The location was great, and very close to Brighton, but if you know the location of the backwoods shortcut, then it is a true ski-in-ski-out spot. Otherwise, the distance to the lifts is comparable to having to walk to the far end of the parking lot in most resorts.Timing couldn't be better, with snow storms rolling in during our stay, but the staff came by regularly to shovel paths to the hot tub and grill, plus maintenance coming by to check on the place. Communication with the staff via text was excellent and prompt. I will be considering this place again the next time I'm in the Cottonwood area.

Enjoyed our stay!
Rating Details: The property manager was very 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: This home had the right set up with number of rooms and beds for my large family. We really enjoyed the hot tub and wood burning fireplace. Carole the property manager was excellent and on the ball with anything we needed. I particularly liked that the home had spices, dish soap, laundry detergent and incidentals that you don't want to lug or have to buy for a weeks stay. The only negative is that the owners need to invest in new bedding, towels and dishes, which were old and not enough place settings for a family of 8.
