There's a good sized parking lot with some restrooms (which were unfortunately poorly maintained due to staffing issues-but that's another review). There are a few nice overlook spots along the trail and even a few benches to stop and enjoy the scenery. I noticed that there were many spots in the grassy area that appeared to be burned. As I was wondering aloud what those meant, I came across a sign that explained that they were prescribed burns to prevent the existing trees from choking out. They need space to grow. The water is incredibly clear and the stream has a lovely flow to it. There are some spots that are a little more sparse than others, so it might not be the most magnificent trail you'll find in the mountains, but if it's along your path and you'd like a short walk, it's definitely worth visiting.

This is a very unique experience that I won't soon forget. Pricey so may be a one time experience,…read morebut if you are reconsidering it... I say do it once! They say that over 10,000 years ago the Homestead Crater was formed when melting snow along the Wasatch Mountains mixed with heated geothermal hot springs 2 miles below the earths surface started spewing out water and picking up minerals such as limestone which were then deposited above the earths surface forming a volcano or "beehive" like formation. A Swiss settler discovered it in the late 1800's and named it a hot pot. Originally visitors had to be lowered into it via cable. As of the mid 1990's there is now access via a tunnel. We of course had to check it out and I'm so glad we got to experience it and learn about the history. It wasn't as hot as I had expected it to be, and while I initially thought 50 min was not enough of an experience, it most certainly was.

What a cool experience to bring my OOT family to go see. I wanted to go to the hot springs, but I…read morehad never been to them. I asked my sister if she wanted to go when they came out here for Christmas, and I had her help me choose where to go. I polled friends, and then I had her choose. She chose the Homestead Crater, and she wasn't disappointed! It isn't too interesting in terms of things to look at, but getting to swim in a hot spring in a Crater, on Christmas Eve no less, made it a cool experience for family from Virginia. The water reflected was pretty blue-ish, which reminded me of a lagoon (like in The Little Mermaid ). I loved hearing of the history of the cave, how it was formed, and the minerals in the water. The water was perfect for a cold day. There are a few stalls, built into the cave wall for changing. The time changing is included in the 1 hour time slot you pay for. The staff was nice and knowledgeable. You do have to wear a life vest, which is provided at the Crater. There are also a couple of places you can sit, like the shallow end of a pool, if you don't want to "swim." Scuba diving is an option, for a little extra. Apparently some of my friends certified there for their scuba certifications. We hope to come back again soon!

If you can't make it for a tour there are plenty of signs that Marie had made to tell her family's story. This is a must see when you visit Midway!

In addition, him and his wife operated an orphanage in the area. Aside from the historical aspect, this place is quiet and clean, and there are bunnies that run about (great for kids). The historical buildings are well-maintained and have that rustic, historical feel. If you're interested in hiking up to this spot, there is a trail about 2 miles down where you can start (did not have time to do this trail, but seems fun).

From the moment you arrive, the staff makes you feel completely welcomed. They're friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about their horses and the beautiful area they work in. The seasonal horseback rides are incredible. Early in the season, you ride through the charming town of Midway, surrounded by snowy fields and mountain views that look like a Christmas postcard. Later in the season, the rides move up to Soldier Hollow, where the scenery becomes even more breathtaking -- open meadows, Olympic-era trails, and the Wasatch Mountains glowing in the winter light. The horses are gentle, well-trained, and perfect for beginners and experienced riders alike. But the true holiday magic comes from their draft horse wagon rides. Being pulled by beautiful Percheron and Belgian horses through thousands of sparkling Christmas lights at the Wasatch Mountain Golf Course is absolutely enchanting. The sleigh bells, the crisp winter air, the glow of the lights -- it feels straight out of a movie. Rocky Mountain Outfitters is a must-do winter tradition. Five stars without hesitation!

AMAZING EXPERIENCE…read more You check in right at the soldier hallow center. They show you how to fit and put on snow shoes and then the guide takes you on a short ~1/2 mile trip to the yurt. It's fairly reasonable even for folks who may be fearful they're deconditioned or not as active. There's as a guide at the front and rear so it can be an easy pace as long you let them know ahead of time. There's plenty of opportunities to take photos and they give a little history also. The guide were great and taking pictures too! Once you're at the top you're greeted by a large yet cozy yurt. It's warm and intimate despite several other groups being present. They did a short introduction and then we got the night started. There was plenty of hot coco, coffee, tea options. Also ingredients to make smores. The courses came at a great pace and we really got to enjoy ourselves. Soda or lime seltzer is also available as well as some limited beer options. There is access to portable bathrooms in case that's needed. Overall this was a beautiful experience perfect for a special occasion. I highly recommend this company and look forward to doing this again in the future.

They do not allow refunds (even when they can't deliver what you signed up and paid for)- only allow reschedules which doesn't work well if you are visiting.
