Park City & Deer Valley

Community Areas

Old Town

Park City's bustling Old Town district remains the emotional heart of the town, just as it was over 100 years ago. Since the neighborhood was platted in the 19th century, lots tend to be smaller, lending the area a walkable layout and a vibrant energy. Old Town holds much of Park City's rich history; sixty-four buildings are included in the National Register of Historic Places, many of those on Park City's colorful Main Street.

Lined with restaurants, art galleries, nightclubs and boutique shops, Main Street is the cultural and culinary center of Park City. What's more, the Town Lift of Park City Mountain Resort connects skiers and snowboarders directly to the base of Main Street. Winter ski trails and summer hiking trails can be accessed right from the streets of Old Town, too, making it a year-round recreational haven. Homes in Old Town range from restored Victorian-era miner's cottages, to contemporary condos, to exquisite new construction.

Deer Valley Area

Luxury estates, world-class skiing and gracious service make Deer Valley® one of the most renowned residential areas in Park City. Readers of SKI MAGAZINE consistently rank Deer Valley Ski Resort as one of the best ski resorts in the nation. Silver Lake, Upper Deer Valley's culinary and retail hub, is famous for the quality and variety of its restaurants. Snow Park, the resort's base area, hosts World Cup ski competitions in the winter, and well-known national music acts in the summer, including names like Etta James, Willie Nelson, Bonnie Raitt and B.B. King, just to name a few.

Greater Deer Valley is home to myriad developments, offering homes ranging from condos, to year-round single-family residences, to multi-acre vacation estates and homesites. Some palatial properties are considered among the most luxurious of any ski area anywhere in the world. The most desirable homes offer direct ski access, and many boast stunning views of the Wasatch Mountains, Old Town Park City or the Jordanelle Reservoir. Deer Valley residential offerings can be divided into four main areas: Lower Deer Valley, Upper Deer Valley, Empire Pass and Deer Crest.

Park Meadows

Home to many permanent residents, the Park Meadows community flows from the flank of Quarry Mountain, around the Park Meadows Golf Course and abuts the undulating meadows of Round Valley. This established community retains a rare neighborhood camaraderie and a local vibe. While architectural styles and subdivisions vary greatly within the Park Meadows neighborhood, all residents can boast easy access to elementary, middle and high schools, the city-owned Park City Racquet Club and the Eccles Center for the Performing Arts. Much of Park Meadows enjoys huge views of the ski slopes, and the fairways of the Jack Nicklaus-designed golf course provide scenic vistas and open space.

To the West, Park Meadows is bordered by a protected swath of wetland meadows, through which meander McCloud Creek and a popular paved walking trail. To the Northeast are the trails and open space of Round Valley, purchased and protected by an elective municipal bond. Homes in Park Meadows range from 1970's-era single-family houses, to stately new residences, to equestrian mini-ranches, to well-placed condominiums. Subdivisions include Eagle Pointe, Meadows Estates, Risner Ridge, Ridgeview, Holiday Ranch Estates, Fairway Meadows, West Ridge and Fairway Hills Estates.

Thaynes Canyon / Aspen Springs

The gateway to Old Town, the Thaynes Canyon neighborhood curls around the Park City Municipal Golf Course, nestled against the base of Park City Mountain Resort. Tall trees, easy downtown access, and panoramic views of the slopes and the namesake Thaynes Canyon make this neighborhood a favorite of longtime locals.

Adjacent to Thaynes Canyon is Aspen Springs, situated on the lower slope of Iron Mountain, with views stretching across open meadows to Park City's iconic McPolin Barn. Where Aspen Springs meets Thaynes Canyon lies Rotary Park, one of the town's loveliest parks, replete with a covered pavilion and year-round stream. Homes in both Aspen Springs and Thaynes Canyon range from single-family residences to multi-acre equestrian properties.

Aerie / Prospector

Both established neighborhoods, the Aerie and Prospector are known for their in-town locations and convenience to restaurants, shops, trails and parks. Appropriately named, the Aerie boasts a lofty position atop a mountain overlooking Old Town and Prospector. The neighborhood's well-situated, custom homes take advantage of the dramatic views. Indeed, the Aerie contains many of Park City's largest and most elegant primary residences. And, many of the homes in the Aerie are less than a mile from Main Street and City Park.

The Prospector neighborhood is a local favorite for its convenience and friendliness. Victorian-style architecture, level streets and mature trees lend the area a traditional feel. Many local families love Prospector for its proximity to elementary, middle and high schools, as well as to the neighborhood park, with its pond and playground. Area residents can directly access the Rail Trail and the Aerie trail system, as well as neighborhood restaurants, offices, shops and health club. Main Street is a short pedal or free bus ride away. Homes in Prospector include single-family residences, duplexes and a few condominium projects.

Canyons / Sunpeak

Once merely the outskirts of Park City, in recent years The Canyons and Sunpeak areas have become recognized neighborhoods with identities all their own. The growth and maturation of The Canyons Resort have created a vibrant resort community in the developments surrounding its base. Plans for a proposed golf course would add another mountain lifestyle dimension to developing area.

Snyderville

New commercial developments at Kimball Junction offer a legitimate "town center" feeling for Snyderville Basin residents, with grocery stores, a post office, movie theater, shops, restaurants, nightclubs, a public recreation center and community gathering spaces. A complete trail system, sweeping views of the three ski resorts and the dedicated open space of the Swaner Nature Preserve make the neighborhoods of the Snyderville Basin more popular than ever for year-round residents and vacation homeowners alike. Neighborhoods of Snyderville Basin include Silver Springs, Sun Peak, the Old Ranch Road area, Bear Hollow, Kimball Junction developments, Highland Estates, as well as the Trailside and Silver Summit areas.

Pinebrook / Jeremy Ranch / Kimball Junction

While each of these three neighborhoods has a distinct identity, they all have three things in common: mountain settings, a year-round community of primary residences and convenient access to both Salt Lake and Park City. Located on the north side on Interstate-80, Jeremy Ranch homes enjoy south-facing exposures with lots of sun, and the verdant open space of the Arnold Palmer-designed, 18-hole Jeremy Ranch Golf Club. Jeremy Ranch is home to the newest of the Park City's area's four elementary schools.

On the south side of I-80, Pinebrook is home to a new neighborhood park, the Ecker Hill Middle School and a thriving new commercial center replete with grocery store, retail and restaurant offerings. Pinebrook homes range from stacked condos and townhomes, to large, custom residences nestled into several acres of aspen forest. Just to the West, Summit Park and Timberline are densely wooded areas with primarily northern exposures and a true alpine feel. Houses in these neighborhoods include funky 1970's-era A-frame cabins and contemporary mountain masterpieces.

Glenwild / Silver Creek

Looking across to the classic Park City ridgeline is the equestrian meadow neighborhood of Silver Creek, and the high mountain developments of Red Hawk, Goshawk, The Preserve, Stagecoach and Pine Meadows. All with different personalities, these developments are characterized by idyllic mountain settings and peaceful seclusion from the bustle of downtown Park City. Located near Tuhaye, above the shores of the Jordanelle Reservoir, the single-family residences and condos of Deer Mountain enjoy views of Deer Valley Resort's Mayflower Bowl.

Promontory / Jordanelle

The large expanse of land running from Promontory Ranch along the north side of Interstate-80, and continuing along the east side of Interstate-40 to the Jordanelle Reservoir is home to many of Park City's newest developments, which team with sweeping views and recreational opportunities. The private golf course communities of Tuhaye and Promontory offer not just first-class golf but also stately homes, total privacy and heaps of desirable amenities.
