I recently visited the Lookout at Deer Valley planned unit development.  It is a great option if you are looking to purchase a new construction vacation home at Deer Valley Resort.  They offer both free standing homes as well as twin homes ranging in size from about 4300 square feet to 6200 square feet with 4 to 5 bedrooms.  Prices start in the low $3,000,000’s. The price per square foot for these luxury new homes are about $200 to $400 per square feet less than comparable ski in ski out homes at Deer Valley Resort.  The Lookout at Deer Valley has a club house with an onsite concierge and shuttle service for owners and guests.  It offers the next best thing to ski in ski out because of their convenient shuttle service for owners.  They can pick you up at your Lookout home and drop you off at the ski lift as well as pick you up.  Besides offering a ski shuttle service they will also take owners and guests to and from the Main Street area so they can enjoy a wonderful dinner at one of the many great Park City restaurants.

Free Parking at Park City Utah Ski Resorts

Sunday, November 4th, 2007

Enjoy free parking at the Park City Ski Resorts which include Deer Valley Resort, Park City Mountain Resort & the Canyons Resort.  They all offer free parking in their parking lots.  I was recently working with some buyers who had asked me about it.  They indicated at the Vail Ski Resort it does cost about $25 per day to park in their parking lot so I thought it might be good to let people know that it is free at the ski resorts in Park City Utah.  Deer Valley Resort offers a free shuttle ride from the parking lot to their Snow Park Lodge as well as free ski storage. The Canyons Resort offers a free cabriolet ride from the parking lot to the Canyons Resort Village area.   The open air lot at Park City Mountain Resort is free and they do offer a paid parking area if you would like covered parking and a shorter walk to the lifts.

Park City Utah is a great place to own a ski condo.  Please visit Park City Ski Condos for Sale to search for all the condos that are for sale at the three Park City Utah ski resorts.

 

 

Single Family Vacation Home and Nightly Rentals

Sunday, November 4th, 2007

ski-home.jpg

If you are looking to buy a single family home in the Park City Utah area and would like to place it in a nightly rental pool, be careful about the neighborhood you choose.  Not all neighborhoods are zoned to allow for nightly rentals in the Park City area.  Placing your vacation home in a nightly rental pool can help generate some income to help off set costs of ownership when you aren’t using the property.  It is best to work with one of the Local Park City Realtors who will help look out for your best interests first so that you don’t end up buying in a neighborhood that will not allow it if that is what you are looking for.  There are also some neighborhoods that don’t allow condominiums to be placed in a nightly rental pool but more do allow it than with single family home neighborhoods in the Park City area.

As a Park City Resort and Second Home Property Specialist, I will help you find the most suitable property that will best meet you and your family’s needs.

Enjoy free Public Transportation throughout the Park City Utah area.

One of the best amenities that the Park City area offers to residents and visitors would be the free public transit system.  Besides offering free transportation in town in Park City it’s service also extends into the outlying areas of Park City such as Kimball Junction and the Outlet Mall.  This free transportation will also take you to all the Park City ski resorts which include Deer Valley Resort, Park City Mountain Resort and the Canyons Resort. So from many areas in Park City you don’t even need a car to get around.

Click Here for more information on Park City’s free transit system.  There is a summer schedule and winter schedule.  The winter schedule tends to run longer and more often to help better serve the area during the busy ski season.
