Carpe Montem - Modern, Views, Large Deck, Hot Tub, Private
Quiet and secluded with soothing sounds of the stream heard from the deck and a few bedroom windows. Carpe Montem is a stunning and comfortable mountain home located in a gated community at the very end of a quiet lane. An impressive deck offering stunning views of Mt. Timpanogos. The hot tub is the largest we've ever seen and could fit the whole family plus some. The glacial runoff creating Stewart Falls (just a few miles hike from the cabin) runs year round just below the property.
All 3 bedrooms on the upper level have stunning views of the forest and mountains. Waking up to views of Timpanogos is an experience in itself. The main bedroom shares a small deck with the king bedroom w/ fireplace. The last bedroom on the upper level has a king bed and up the built in stairs another queen with a full bath across the hall. The two remaining bedrooms in the main home are on the ground level both with king beds that share a full bath with a shower/tub combo.
The detached 3 car garage has a 1 bedroom, 1 full bathroom apartment with a sofa sleeper in the living room.
Balsam Road is a quiet corner of the mountain consisting of 4 homes. We are managing the last 3 homes on the lane. Mountain Modern is a 5 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom home with an impressive bunk room, beautiful design and layout. The views are just as impressive and the home was completely renovated in 2019. Balsam Wood is another 5 bedroom home in between Carpe Montem and Mountain Modern that is more rustic and quintessential Sundance with an amazing deck, hot tub and sauna. These three homes rented together would have 15 bedrooms combined and they are the last three homes at the end of the lane just a few hundred feet apart.
The cabin is heated and features a kitchen, 4 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 6 bedrooms and a dining area. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a sofa bed.

Every room has a beautiful view
Our extended family met up from 3 different states to stay at Carpe Montem for a family wedding in the area. The house was the perfect setup for us to enjoy the week together but still each have our space. The views couldn’t have been more beautiful and the home was the best equipped VRBO home we’d ever stayed in. It was a great experience!
