Utah Rentals By Owner

Looking for an outdoor paradise for your next vacation rental? Look no farther than Utah – a four-season premier vacation rental site. Between the world-renowned ski slopes, the painted wilderness canyons, and the raging rivers and scenic lakes ready for you to fish, boat, or swim, Utah has all kinds of recreational opportunities right in its backyard.
 
Utah has a grand total of five National Parks, six National Forests, and seven National Monuments! Add to that Utah’s world renowned Great Salt Lake, Lake Powell, the Rocky Mountains, Bryce Canyon, and the Bonneville Salt Flats and it’s easy to see why there’s never a lack of things to do in the Beehive State!
 
Host of the 2002 Winter Olympics, almost anywhere you choose to take your Utah vacation rental has its own special things to offer…Moab is a popular destination for fans of beautiful scenery and two-wheeled and four-wheeled adventure. The Arches and Canyonlands National Parks offer up some of the most vivid colors and structures for you photograph and treasure forever. And thousands visit every year for the Moab Jeep Safari and then mountain bike down Slickrock Trail.
 
Ogden, Utah, near the Wasatch Mountains, has a massive trail system and a popular downhill ski area. Kayaking is also a popular sport on the Weber River, and there is a local boulder field to go bouldering or go rock climbing. Escalante, Utah is a good place to start your new canyoneering hobby – the Peek-a-Boo and Spooky Canyons are great introductions for beginners. And for fans of river hiking, Calf Creek falls is a beautiful 5.5 mile round trip that offers up a gorgeous waterfall along the way. For some top-notch skiing, be sure and stop by Deer Valley during your Utah vacation rental. Deer Valley was voted North America’s #1 ski resort by readers of Ski magazine – 2 years in a row! But, be warned, Deer Valley doesn’t allow snowboarding.
 
Once your cheeks are flushed with all the outdoor adventure and you’re ready to relax, be sure and stop by Logan, Utah. Home of Utah State University, Logan is home to many houses on the National Register of Historic Places, including the home David Eccles built for his second wife. Or head to Cedar City for the Utah Shakespearean Festival and Utah Summer Games. Finally, be sure and stop by Salt Lake City, Utah. Salt Lake City is home to a genealogical library that’s considered the largest in the world, The Place Heritage Park, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, and is in close proximity to many ski resorts and biking trails.
 
So make your next vacation rental a Utah vacation rental. All in one vacation, you can ski the same slopes as our 2002 Olympic athletes and rub elbows with famous movie stars at the Sundance Festival in Park City. Whether you want to vacation in the summer, spring, winter or fall, there’s always tons of fun waiting for you in Utah.
