Tastefully updated home by University of Utah, 3 min walk to Rice Eccles Stadium

This updated 1920 Bungalow brick home is conveniently located within walking distance of the University of Utah, and a short 15 minutes from the airport, and 30 minutes from popular ski resorts in Park city and Cottonwood canyon. The Trax station at Rice-Eccles Stadium is one street east - only 2 minutes away so there is no need to rent a car, but there is off street parking for two regular sized vehicles if you do bring a car.

The VRBO Rental is for the main floor of this home. It is newly renovated and updated, with all brand new, tasteful furniture and has central air (cooling and heating), 2 bedrooms, 1 bathrooms, with 2 comfortable beds (one king, one queen), a 14 foot couch, 1 bath, full kitchen, access to washer&dryer, driveway parking, big screen HDTV with FuboTV, Hulu, Netflix, and Google Fiber WiFi.

Fantastic place to come watch a football game - you can hear the stadium announcer from the front porch and walk to the stadium gates in less than 5 minutes.

The Kitchen is fully stocked with pots and pans, toaster, oven, microwave, coffee maker, etc.

Convenient location on University street - come to drop off kids starting at the University, or for Salt Lake downtown conventions, or for Ski trips, or other activities at the University of Utah.

The property is close (2 minute walk) to the TRAX station at Rice Eccles Stadium. You may not even need a rental car if you time it right, you can get around town or to the airport easily!

Parking can be tricky in this area, street parking is by permit only but the south driveway is reserved for VRBO guests. It is a tight fit, but two regular sized cars can fit. Only one oversized vehicle will fit into the driveway space. A guest street parking permit can be requested at the time of booking but needs to be left at the home upon check out or there will be an additional fee ($100) to replace the guest pass.

This home is zoned a duplex, there is a basement apartment with permanent renters, they have a separate entrance. The laundry is a shared space and the basment renters do not have access to the upstairs VRBO. We ask that there is quiet time from 10pm to 8am. Being so close to the University of Utah, and in a college area, there may be some late night celebrating nearby in the neighborhood. This is noticeable especially after the Utes win a football game! :)

Keyless check-in and check-out makes for easy, safe access. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Great Location to University
Conveniently located to the University & Trax system. We were able to stay a week without a vehicle - get to grocery store, restaurants, and more. The house is very well stocked with kitchen supplies, basic seasoning, paper products and plenty of towels/ bedding etc. Super cozy beds with wonderful bedding. I was able to work all week in the sunny living area in the quiet neighborhood. It was great!

Great little property!
The pics are accurate - this VRBO is quaint, quiet, updated, charming. Beds are super-comfortable. Kitchen is small but high functioning and it's all-new. Living room has HUGE sofa and large TV. Very comfortable. if you have reason to visit the Univ of Utah, you can't beat the location. The campus is around the corner, and you're walking distance to some very good restaurants (Mexican, Italian, Thai) and a bit farther away is a wonderful coffee shop that we enjoyed each morning. No real downsides to mention but a couple things to note - there is no backyard and the neighbors are super-close, so it's not the most private of properties. And the bathroom shower is over a bathtub with very high shower head - not great for shorties like me and my family :) but we're used to it! Overall, this is an EXCELLENT property, and we'd stay there again if we had reason to visit the university.

Wow!
My family really loved staying at this property. Our favorite rental in SLC so far. We were visiting our daughter at The U and this was the perfect place to stay and catch a game. The stadium is so close! Neighborhood was nice and the people on the street are friendly. The unit has been tastefully remodeled and the couch was actually comfortable to lounge on! If you are a frequent private rental user you know what I am saying. Can’t wait to stay here again!!

Weekend visit with daughter attending the U
Thank you, Blake and Heidi for opening up your home to our family. We had a wonderful weekend, visiting my daughter, who attends the U. The location could not have been more perfect. It is a short walk to the stadium to enjoy a game and fun to be right in the thick of college life :-) we had no problems with noise despite a game weekend. We will definitely be back soon. The home is adorable!

Wonderful house near the U
We rented this lovely home for our daughter’s graduation from the U. It was the perfect place for the 4 of us. We have rented many homes over the 4 years my daughter attended the U snd this by far our favorite one. The house was clean, modern and bright with high-end furnishings. The kitchen was well-equipped, the beds were super comfy and there were plenty of towels. It really felt like a home and not just a short- term. rental property. The hosts were very responsive when road construction prevented us from parking in the driveway. We were able to walk to both graduation ceremonies in under 30 minutes - no car needed. The Trax stop is also just a block away. I would highly recommend this home to anyone wishing to stay near the U.

Cozy home, convenient to food!
This house was precisely as listed. It was clean, comfortable, and very well-stocked. The giant couch was quite comfortable, the little nook in the kitchen was perfect for a few hours work, and it was only few blocks walk to some fun, local restaurants. The driveway is quite narrow, our Corolla just fit, but we are used to lots of driveway space, so your mileage may vary. I would stay here again.
