What a location and what a place!

We stayed here for 10 days and I must say it was exactly what we were hoping for. Until now we had always chosen private homes with a secluded feel, but decided this time to give a resort stay a go. Being 'in resort' with kids and not needing a car makes the whole experience so much easier. We could do our own thing without worrying about the logistics of everyone being ready to go at the same time and then everyone ready to go home at the same time, you get the idea...... The Canyons resort is fantastic...good skiing, great place for a beer after skiing (the Umbrella bar!!) and choice of a few good places to eat dinner. As for the apartment, it's great. Certainly helped having the kitchen and common dining and living area between the bedrooms so we could all hang out rather than be confined to 'hotel rooms' until time to go out. Stayed in Park City Old Town last year and loved that too because of the night life, but I didn't have the family with me that time! so this time with the family, really felt like we couldn't have picked better. The shuttle running between The Canyon, Park City and Deer Valley is fantastic. We thought about hiring a car and so glad we didn't Would have only used it a couple of times at most. The Westgate Lodge is a bit of a maze, but once you find your way around, it really is a great place. It's right in the middle of the resort and after a couple of day's you stop feeling guilty about them taking your ski's to the Gondola for you! Great vacation in a great place.
