We spent Christmas 2009 in Solitude Village Utah for something different from our yearly holiday traditions. The whole week was fantastic. The condo was attractive, bright, cozy and comfortable, with a killer view. It had everything we needed to relax when we weren't out playing. Canyon Vacation Rentals was especially accommodating. We had three separate special requests. We needed the boxes we had shipped to be put in the condo before our Saturday night arrival, which they did for us. Also, my husband forgot the power supply for his computer and they helped us get it delivered so he could do some work. Finally, our teenage son accidentally lost the lock for the ski locker and they promptly replaced it for us. We were a lot of trouble and they were very gracious!
Solitude is a fantastic resort. It is family oriented and casual yet very luxurious and full of people ready to help. The snow is great, there are virtually no lift lines and it offers varied terrain while still being accessible enough for our teenager to go off on his own. The village has a Nordic flavor, with firepits for s'mores, an ice skating rink that our six year old daughter loved, and scheduled activities such as carolers and a performance of the Grinch.
What is really sweet about this particular condo is that the heated pool and hot tubs are right outside the door. They felt soooo good at the end of the day. We also rented snowshoes one day and went into the adjacent forest. In short it had everything we dreamed of except a sleigh ride!! I highly recommend it, especially for families.
