This development was built in 2004 and 2005 and along with the Larkspur townhomes are the only townhome option in Empire Pass with the rest of the density there being either stacked condos or single family lots/homes.

The Larkspur townhomes are located at Empire Pass in Deer Valley, the newest community here and located just west of Silver Lake Village.  These townhomes were built in 2005 and 2006 in groups of two on the outside of the development at The Village at Empire Pass.  All Larkspur townhomes are ski-in/ski-out to the Silver Strike lift in the Empire Pass area. All of these townhomes have access to Talisker Club privileges including the Tower Club at Empire Pass which is just a short walk from any of the many Larkspur townhomes.  The Tower Club has a restaurant as well as a pool and spa area and serves as a gathering place for Talisker members in the Empire area of Deer Valley.

The Shed Clubhouse is the newest major amenity at the Promontory Club in Park City.  The idea behind this clubhouse was that it would serve as a multi-generational gathering place for children, parents and grandparents with enough diverse activities to keep everyone interested, active and interacting with each other. When you walk in there is a bar/soda fountain immediately to your left with several large flat screen tv's to watch the sporting event of the day or just to catch up on current events.  With seating areas to the left and the right there is plenty of room to relax and enjoy a casual afternoon or early evening meal.  There is also a spacious outdoor deck providing some of the best views in all of Park City. For parents worried about finding activities for picky teens, they wi... 06/05/2013

Moose Lodge is a newer development of 9 two bedroom condos located in the Old Town area of Park City.  They are just three blocks from Park City Mountain Resort and an easy walk in the summer months, though in the winter with ski boots, skis and kids in tow you may want to either jump in the car or ride the free bus to go skiing. Moose Lodge fronts Park Avenue directly and is right on the free Park City bus route. Adding to the convenience here you are less than a ten minute walk to Park City's Historic Main Street as well as movie theaters, coffee shops and a large full service grocery store. Since most of the condos in the area were built in the 1970's and 1980's Moose Lodge offers the advantage of newer construction, having been built just seven years ago in 2006 on the location of a... 06/04/2013

Empire Pass is a 3,500 acre development located at the top of Deer Valley and is home to some of the most exclusive homes and condos in the area.  90% of the land here is preserved as open space and there will be a total of just 550 residences built here.  This relative scarcity as well as the innate beauty of the surrounding mountains will ensure that this area will remain one of the most sought after ski-in/ski-out developments in all of North America. One of the great benefits to ownership in Empire Pass for most homeowners is the access to the Talisker Club.  The Talisker Club has benefits and  facilities far too numerous to try to describe in their entirety in this post, but here are a few of the highlights.  The Tower Club at Empire Pass is an on mountain ski-in/ski-out facility t... 06/04/2013

The Powder Pointe condominiums sit on a prime location just across Empire Avenue from Park City Mountain Resort.  So, though these are not ski-in/ski-out properties and can not be advertised as such, in reality they are just an easy 5 minute walk to the lifts at a fraction of the price of a true ski property, and many of the units have killer ski run views. They also have the added benefit of being a 2 minute walk from Park Avenue and about a 10 minute walk from Main Street.  If you are not in the mood to walk, Powder Pointe is located directly behind the bus route on Empire and a block away from the return route to Canyons Resort on Park Avenue. At Powder Pointe it is all about location. The Powder Pointe development was built in 1986 and consists mainly of one bedroom condos around 60... 06/02/2013

The Colony at White Pine Canyon is located at the Canyons Resort in Park City and encompasses 4,600 acres of beautiful alpine terrain.  Over 90% of the land at The Colony has been set aside and will forever be preserved as open space.  The lot sizes here average more than 5 acres and are the largest ski-in/ski-out lots in the Rocky Mountains. I did a report on the Colony back in February but I thought it was time to do another one as much has changed since that last report.  The most obvious change is that the snow has largely melted off, though there is still a fair amount of snow remaining on the higher peaks of Park City and some of the higher elevation home sites at The Colony still have enough snow in their yard for a spirited snowball fight. The real estate market in Park City has... 05/31/2013

All three area ski resorts run a few of their lifts during the summer months and offer lift served mountain biking and hiking on numerous trails around the mountains that also interconnect for travel back and forth between resorts. Deer Valley will be operating the Silver Lake Express from the lower base area as well as the Sterling Express from mid mountain and the Ruby Express from Empire Canyon.

One of the reasons we all choose to live in a place like Park City is the many opportunities to get out and enjoy the beautiful surroundings in which we live.
