A part of Park City Mountain Resort -- the largest ski resort in the entire country -- Canyons Resort has extremely accessible world-class skiing. With 7,300 acres of skiable terrain, a new gondola system for connecting the trails, and everything from double blacks to easy greens, this is fast becoming one of the most desirable resorts in the country.

Deer Valley is consistently ranked as one of the best ski destinations in North America, and the available vacation rentals and luxury lodging are built to match.

Just northeast of Old Town sits the neighborhood of Lower Deer Valley, where you’ll find quiet, peaceful retreats and plenty of privacy, all still only minutes from world-class skiing.
