How do I get from The Cabin to Alta and Snowbird? The Cabin is located very close to where the Bypass Road rejoins the State Highway 210 (the main road), below the Alta Peruvian Lodge.
To get to Alta from this house, you have a couple of easy options. You can walk to the Alta Peruvian Lodge and from there ski across the cat track over to the lifts. You can also jump on the free Alta Resort Shuttle which makes a continuous loop of the Bypass Road during daytime hours. The shuttle runs continuously during the day. It will typically take just a few minutes to get up to the Collins or Sunnyside base areas at Alta. After skiing, you can utilize this same shuttle to bring you back to the property or you can ski home from Alta as well by accessing the Wildcat Access area and crossing the snowbridge back to the Peruvian Acres neighborhoods. You will need to walk across the Bypass Road to get to The Cabin.
To get to Snowbird to go skiing, you would just take that Alta Resort Shuttle to The View Condominiums stop to ski down the intermediate “Whodunnit” run to Snowbird. At the end of the day, you can return to that same location to hop back on the Resort Shuttle to go back to The Cabin.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washer/dryer, a fireplace, and a sofa bed.

Wonderful mountain retreat with close access to Alta
This cabin is lovely and really well appointed. The kitchen has literally everything you could want to make amazing meals for a crowd. Wonderful gathering space and room to play games and just sit together and share stories of the day's adventures. We loved the sauna and the hot tub for apres ski relaxation. Note that the listing says 4 bedrooms. The text is more accurate - there are 3 bedrooms and one common /open sleeping area with beds, and another loft with a hideabed. FIne if everyone is going to bed at the same time. Note also that access to the cabin is down a sloped walkway, so prepare to haul your things via sled. The caretake, Kyle, was fabulous. He was right there whenever we needed anything and was even there to greet us upon arrival!Overall this was a very special place and we had a blast staying there.

comfortable & cozy!
great classic cabin that is comfortable & extremely cozy. bedding is 5 star as well. perfect place to stay when you want a classic ski experience and when the pow is falling, there is no better place to be for hitting the slopes. location is not for those whom can not hike in the snow as there is a path that leads you to the cabin and is a challenge when epic snow year like this year. well worthbit though and we will be back! thank you!
