PRIVATE FAMILY SKI VACATION HOMES IN
BRIGHTON & SOLITUDE SKI RESORTS, UTAH

Most people regard Brighton and Solitude, Utah as ski vacation destinations. Our ski vacation homes are a big hit during the Winter months. However, we are a big attraction for those with Summer and Fall hiking, climbing and nature photography on their minds.

All I can say is WOW! We were going for a little walk in our beautiful Brighton Utah neighborhood and came upon a huge Bull Moose munching grass in the stream. The experience of crossing paths with a moose just 100 feet away is not even close to watching it on TV. This imposing creature had a full rack of horns complete with all the velvety stuff on it. One of the guests staying at the Great Western House was taking pictures of him and he later told me the moose was bedded down behind this house the previous afternoon. Great Western House is one of the many ski vacation homes we rent out in summer and winter in this region of Utah. This Bull Moose picture was photographed by Chris Angelovic.

The wild flowers are waning now and the smoke from the fires comes and goes. What a hot summer it has been – quite a contrast to the fresh cold air passing through our homes during Utah ski vacation season.

During the summer evenings, though, it does feel cool and refreshing to sleep with the windows open and blankets tucked high. Taking drinks onto the porches of our home for viewing the incredible smoky orange sunsets has been a relaxing and enjoyable end to the day.
