Brighton Mountain Cabin Big Cottonwood Canyon
Are you ready to escape the summer heat and valley inversions? We're looking for solid mountain people to rent our home long term. Located at 7,500 feet in Brighton, just 2 miles from Solitude Ski Resort, this 2400sqft mountain home offers hiking, biking, paragliding, backcountry skiing and more directly from the front door.
Features include a large master bedroom with vaulted ceilings, sunroom, year-round stream, extensive deck space, full basement, two covered carports with one 12kw 80amp EV charger installed, in deck hot tub, and a beautiful forest setting surrounded by some of the best recreation in the Wasatch.
Perfect for families of skiers, bikers, climbers, and mountain enthusiasts who want true canyon living.
Please note: Brighton winters are real. Snowfall can exceed 600 inches annually, and tenants must be willing and able to shovel, snowblow, dig out vehicles, and handle the realities of mountain life. That said, with the relatively flat roads, community plowing, covered carports, and elevated entryway, this is about as easy as living in big cottonwood gets without a garage.
Requirements:
* AWD/4WD vehicle required
* 3PMSF-rated snow tires required
* Strong winter driving skills
* Respectful and considerate of neighbors
This isn't suburban living-it's an opportunity to live in one of Utah's best mountain communities. There's a small pre school a half mile up the road for the little ones, Brighton and Solitude with great downhill biking, frisbee golf, skiing of course and a selection of restaurants in the canyon within 5-10 minutes.
Park city, Deer Valley, Midway/Heber, Jordanelle, and Deer Creek all within 30 minutes in the summer, with year round access to and from the Salt Lake Valley around 30 minutes as well.
Furnished. Willing to negotiate terms and price with the right renter(s), keeping in mind that if you were to try to purchase and finance this home, you'd likely have a house payment over $7k/mo, plus utilities and everything else it takes to own and maintain a home in the mountains.
