Luxury Utah Ski Packages Travel Agent Expert

Deer Valley Ski Resort
Deer Valley Ski Resort

Elevate your travel experience with a personalized touch! As a seasoned travel specialist with a deep connection to the world of winter wonder, I'm here to curate your perfect escape to Utah's breathtaking ski destinations. Let me share my passion for Park City, Deer Valley, and the Canyons with you, based on my extensive experience as a Lodging Reservation Agent at Deer Valley Ski Resort and a true love for the mountain lifestyle.


Park City: Where Winter Dreams Come True Park City, Utah is a hidden gem nestled just 38 miles away from Salt Lake City International Airport. Easily accessible and brimming with endless winter activities, this enchanting town has something for everyone. From skiing and snowboarding to dog sledding, snowshoeing, and more, you'll find your winter paradise here.


Three Premier Ski Resorts I've had the privilege of exploring all three premier ski resorts in the area, and each offers a unique experience:


Deer Valley Resort: With its perfectly groomed slopes, over 2,000 acres of terrain, and legendary powder, Deer Valley is a skier's dream. Its ski-only policy ensures an exclusive and tranquil atmosphere. Enjoy upscale dining, award-winning ski instruction, and impeccable service, including ski valets and mountain host tours.


Park City Mountain Resort: Host to the 2002 Winter Olympics, this resort boasts a vast ski area, linkingPark City and Canyons Village with the Quicksilver gondola. With over 100 trails and ample skiing terrain, it's perfect for intermediates and beginners alike. Snowboarders will find 14 back-bowls to explore, and advanced riders can tackle the thrilling Jupiter peak.


Canyons Village: Nestled within Park City Mountain Resort, Canyons Village offers wide runs, short blacks, and breathtaking greens. It's the gateway to endless adventure in the Utah snowscape.


Main Street Magic Don't miss the charm of Main Street, where Park City comes alive. After a day on the slopes, immerse yourself in the lively après-ski scene, featuring live music, dancing, and craft brews at the Wasatch Pub.


My Personal Connection Growing up on the West Coast, I've always cherished skiing in the glorious sun with powder beneath my skis. My time at Deer Valley Resort allowed me to savor the luxuries of ski-in/ski-out properties, ski valets, and hot turkey chili while exploring both the backcountry and beautifully groomed trails. The buzz of the holidays and the world-renowned Sundance Film Festival add a unique flavor to this destination.


Are you ready to embark on a winter journey like no other? Reach out to me, and I'll craft a tailor-made ski holiday or family winter vacation that captures the spirit of Park City, Deer Valley, and the Canyons. Let's make your winter dreams a reality.

The Best Travel Agent EVER!
Dawn is one of the most knowledgable, personable, seasoned and detail oriented travel agent I've had the pleasure to work with. She has handled both my national and international travel for years, both personally and professionally. I've become so spoiled by her knowledge and experience, I find it very hard to book anything without her help! She is fantastic, dependable, and so nice to work with. Five stars! Won't find anyone better.
