"The "Brighton Chalets"are centered in the heart of Utah's Brighton Ski Resort Area where, at a breathtaking elevation of 8,755 feet (no pun intended), we have the highest base elevation of any of the Salt Lake/Park City Area ski resorts, which explains why Brighton usually opens first each season and points out that nobody has more snow than we do! We are located just 19 miles east of Salt Lake City at the top of Big Cottonwood Canyon.

Summertime activities include fishing in nearby Silver Lake, mountain biking, hiking (map), having Bar-B-Qs, or just enjoying the wild flowers and summer sights.

Wintertime activities include skiing or snowboarding at Brighton Ski Area (Discount Passes available), cross-country skiing at Solitude's Nordic Center, snowmobiling over Guardsman's Pass, to mention the more vigorous activities. Other winter guests simply enjoy the beauty of the winter sights.

We feature individual, private chalets of all sizes for guests who want something more unique than crowded hotels or condos. Our cabins come in all sizes, from our luxury bridal suites for "honeymooners", to our 6,000 Sq. Ft. Chateau, or our Manor with its 1,500 Sq. Ft. Grand Room, built for ski clubs or family reunions. All of our units include fully furnished kitchens, DISH TV, DVDs, and fireplaces. Some have hot tubs! We are located across the street from the Brighton skier's parking lot and the LDS church (Church of Jesus-Christ of Latter-Day Saints)."
