As the snow begins to melt in Park City, Utah so will some mountain home prices. The end of ski season is the perfect time to buy the resort home of your dreams.
Park City is a historic community with so many tasteful modern features. The city and the resort are located on the “Wasatch Back” or the east side of the Wasatch Mountain Range, a part of the Rocky Mountains. Once a mere mining town, modern civilization has found far more gems here on the pristine mountain slopes than inside them.
Here are five fabulous reasons to buy your resort vacation home in Park City:
- World-class skiing and winter sports venues. If you are an outdoor enthusiast, Park City is the place for you. Park City Mountain Resort, Deer Valley Resort, and The Canyons Resort feature some of the most popular slopes in the world. Whether you’re looking for a Park City condo, a Park City luxury home, a Park City bungalow, or a mountain cabin, you will be delighted with the breathtaking adventure that surrounds our small mountain communities. There is no doubt the winters here are amazing, but the summers are too! Hiking, biking, fishing, and photography are just a few summer pastimes residents here enjoy.
- Utah’s Olympic legacy. Utah hosted the world’s 2002 Winter Olympics and the Park City Olympic Park is a testament to the great success of Utah’s moment in the spotlight. The Olympic spirit remains in state-of-the-art venues that allow residents to watch national and international training and competitions including Nordic jumping and sliding sports like the bobsled, luge, and skeleton. Venues here even cater to summer training where athletes practice on plastic runways and condition themselves in a huge training pool. The Alf Engen Ski Museum and 2002 Games exhibit help keep the spirit alive.
