The 3 mushroom pizza was really good!!
Karen L.

We needed lunch and I really didn't want to eat cafeteria food. I headed upstairs to the Saloon and found a table that wasn't in the solarium area under the blazing hot sun. I guess this review is strictly for the Saloon on the second floor. Everyone around me ordered pizza so I did too. The bartender suggested the mushroom medley and so I went ahead with that. For $24, we had a huge 8 slice pizza. It was one of the best vegetarian pizzas I've ever tasted! Tomato sauce, mozzarella, shiitake, cremini, and oyster mushrooms, caramelized red onions, roasted garlic, and tomatoes. And a twisty crust! They do not skimp on toppings here, my friends! I highly recommend the pizza!! Lots of beers to choose from as well! Great lunch spot if you can break away from the slopes!

Opened to the public in 1962, the Goldminer's Daughter at the base of Alta also know as the "GMD", features a Ski Shop, Day Spa, Saloon, Cafe, Restaurant and Lodge. GMD is just steps from the base of Alta Ski Area's Collins and Wildcat lifts and ticket windows. The Goldminer's Daughter opened to the public in 1962.This review is for the Saloon and Cafe. As a lifelong Skier and an Alta-Holic with 20+ years at this resort, the GMD is where I fuel up with breakfast before a day on the slopes, boot up, and grab beers and bar snacks after the lifts close. Downstairs in the cafe, you can grab a cooked to order breakfast of eggs, potatoes,breakfast meat and toast for around $10 from 7 am to 10:30 am. There are plenty of tables to eat your breakfast and boot up and they have small to large lockers available starting at .50 cents to lock your gear up before you head out to the slopes. The cafe also serves up lunch, including soups, salads, sandwiches and burgers from 11 am to 3 pm. After skiing, get out of your ski boots and head upstairs to the Goldminer's Saloon for a few cold beers and bar snacks. The Nachos are a great choice to share with your ski friends while you swap stories about your day in the Utah Powdah! They feature local craft beers on tap from the SLC area served by the Pint or Pitcher. In the spring, grab a cold beer outside on the deck at Slope Side Joe's, order up a burger from the outdoor grill and kick back in the sun and enjoy the music. Step back in history and enjoy your visit to The Goldminer's Daughter, don't forget to grab some souvenirs or ski supplies in the ski shop while your there.

Kevin and Jan Roberts are amazing landlords. We lived in their Bridger Blvd home for 3 1/2 years…read more Any time something was needed I would send a text and Kevin was there to fix it right away. They make it very easy to pay rent through Zelle. I loved that they allowed us to have privacy and did not bother us unless we needed them, this allowed us to feel as though it was our home. When we needed to move they Let us go month to month and did not charge us extra to do so, we only moved because my work relocated me to California otherwise I would have rented from them until my kids finished school. If I ever relocate back to Utah they will be my first call. When we moved out we cleaned the home and made the repairs we needed to and all they charged us was the non refundable (which they discounted and did not have to) and the lease agreed carpet cleaning. Best experience and they became friends to us. I recommend using them to my family, friends, and anyone looking for loyal and responsive landlords.

Recently stayed at one of their short term rental properties in Park City. After leaving they tried…read moreto shake us down by submitting a false claim of damages through the rental service app. The damages were not caused by us. They were also not what the rental agreement would consider to be "damages", but instead normal wear and tear. When we looked into the company we found reviews where they have made the same type of false claims to similar customers to keep their security deposit, including for the same damages that they claimed against us. This rental company has a history of shaking down its tenants, so expect some unexpected charges and prepare to defend yourself.

The rooms are spacious, well-maintained and well appointed. Ski in/ ski out for a really chill day...short, constantly running shuttle to Moonbeam Lodge and lift if you want to do those runs. Good, cozy restaurant in lodge with solid buffet breakfast. The heated pool is warm and you get access to Club Solitude which has an amazing pool area as well. Great choice. We will be back.

I really wanted to love this hotel despite its lack in amenities! however it has been a crap show…read moreafter we checked out of the hotel and drove the less than 1 hour drive home only to realized we had left a personal item behind. I immediately reached out to the hotel. long story short the hotel staff strung me along saying that I needed to talk to house keeping because house keeping would likely have thrown our belongings away when cleaning the room. However despite me calling every single day for four days I could not be put through to house keeping. eventually i was given the email address for the house keeping manager who agreed to replace or reimburse me for the item. however she then emailed me back saying that the hotel has changed their mind and will not be reimbursing me after all. Utah Code Title 29. Hotels and Hotel Keepers § 29-1-2  A person who is an innkeeper, hotel keeper, boarding house or lodging house keeper shall be liable for a loss of any of such property of a guest in the person's inn caused by the theft or negligence of the innkeeper or the innkeeper's servant. Update 3/4/23 I was finally reimbursed! After sharing the state law with them. This has ruined my entire outlook on this hotel. I had previously planned on returning to this hotel on a yearly basis but not anymore.

The crab cakes were not great, the salmon was very undercooked, the rice was strange and terrible tasting, and the steak was just ok. Better than fast food, but certainly not worth the prices or what other people are saying. Very overrated. Also, the flatware was all different and one of them was from Amazon Basics! They do have coat racks and slippers, which is cool.

There is an elevator, in case your legs are weary from too many miles on the mountain. I was a little bit concerned that they might not have anything that would fit into my very restrictive diet. Turns out I was totally wrong to worry. Reservations are recommended. It's not the usual ski resort cafeteria. It's a classy sit-down place. You can even take off your ski boots and change into slippers. Made me feel pampered, like I was at a health spa or something. I was able to get some vegan carrot soup, which meant that it had been thickened with coconut cream instead of gluten-rich roux. Score! I didn't think I had the appetite to eat an entire salad, so I scanned the menu and decided that a plain chicken breast would be my protein for the meal. The rest of our group had sandwiches, salads and pasta. The menu seems to be mainly American/European, with very nice vegetarian and vegan options. I'd welcome a chance to go back there any time. It certainly wasn't a quick lunch, but it gave us all a chance to rest well before we headed back out into the whiteout conditions to conquer some waist-high moguls for the rest of the afternoon.
