Inviting, just-luxe-enough, European chalet-style digs, the award-winning Chateaux Deer Valley is tucked inside Silver Lake Village, just steps from Deer Valley Resort. First things first – the aspiring Olympians in your crew will want to hit the complimentary daily hot breakfast buffet. Fuel up on eggs, bacon, sausage, fruit and more – then head for the mid-mountain chairlifts right outside. Lost a glove or gator somewhere along the way? Replace them (i.e. upgrade to a way cooler/newer version) at the onsite Ski ’N See shop. Ski all day from first to last chair, or call it quits early – there’s no shame in an extended après ski. Gather at the copper-topped bar in the Cena Lounge for pints and pizza, not to mention breathtaking mountain views. Once the last piece of pizza has disappeared, head back to change into swimsuits – the heated outdoor pool and hot tubs await. Run-walk the short distance back inside, and recruit some sous-chefs to help with dinner. Or grab a table at the award-winning onsite Cena Ristorante and Lounge for inspired Italian classics, topped off with tiramisu, housemade gelato or an Orange Creamsicle Pop. Taking a break from the mountain? The fitness center is open 24/7, so it’s ready when you are. Or treat yourself with a visit to Le Spa Chateaux (or during the summer, The Spa at Stein Eriksen Lodge) for a blissfully relaxing massage or body treatment. Want to venture out a little further? Hop the complimentary shuttle and go explore Park City.

Tastefully furnished 500 to 1300 square foot studio, one- and two-bedroom condos sleep two to six guests – and all feature stunning mountain or courtyard views. Indulge in luxe touches like heated towel bars, jetted tubs, fireplaces and cashmere throws. Concierge and bell service are available during ski season, and let’s hear it for daily housekeeping, available year round. Full kitchens promise enough room for everyone’s favorites. In the morning, Keurig coffee makers let you play barista, customizing hot drinks, one cup at a time. And in the evening, declare it top-your-own-pizza night and let the kids have at it. Then pick a classic family movie and put the older kids in charge of concessions (read: microwave popcorn and ice cream scooping).

Summer stays are jam-packed with hiking, mountain biking, paddle boarding, white water rafting and more. Book a tee time at the Park City Municipal Golf Course, or visit the bustling Park Silly market – held downtown Park City every Sunday all season long. Try the Historic Park City Bike Tour, focused on the area’s fascinating mining history. Or see what’s on at the Egyptian Theatre, known for concerts, comedies, musicals and plays. Winter visits give you access to 426 downhill trails across 9,326 acres, plus other snow-centric activities like snowboarding, dog sledding, snow tubing and horse-drawn sleigh rides. Or take your thrill-seekers to Utah Olympic Park, just a mile away, reaching insane speeds (up to 60mph!) in less than a minute on the bobsled track.
