The Modern Moose! Fully Updated & Minutes from the Best Snow and Hiking on Earth

Welcome to the Modern Moose! At the base of the beautiful Wasatch Mountain Range and minutes to the greatest snow on earth!

Location, location, location!

The Modern Moose is the perfect spot for all your outdoor activities and adventures. It is just minutes from world renown skiing, hiking, snow shoeing, climbing, water activities and wildlife viewing all year long.

At the same time it is just 20 minutes from the SLC international airport and walking distance to the grocery store, the park and ride, and even a great nail salon for those wanting a more relaxing time while others are on the slopes.

If location wasn't enough, the Modern Moose, is the perfect amount of luxury and comfort. With 2,800 well designed square feet and an extensive modern remodel, your family/ friends will have plenty of room to relax in the comfort of our home.

Some days you may want to stay home and just hang out.

The Moose can comfortably sleep 12 and has two separate gathering areas where your groups can sit, relax, eat, and enjoy each other’s company.

Each living area has big couches so huge and comfy that once you sit down, you may not want to leave!

Experience plush designer sheets and bedding, down pillows, plush towels, and all the kitchen appliances you will need to cook your meals.

There are 3 large flatscreen TVs with streaming capabilities, a downstairs theater room with Wii, basketball, and our newest addition (my favorite), a classic PACMAN arcade game.

Our brand new back deck has a new sunk in jacuzzi to relax and soak in after a long day on the slopes or hiking.

The EXTRA large capacity washer and dryer will be very handy for families or large groups.

There is plenty of parking at The Moose with a 2 car garage and room for two more cars in the driveway as well as extra parking in the parking lot three houses down.

We do not use a management company. We pride ourselves with personal service and make cleanliness a HIGH PRIORITY. We are always available for contact and will ensure the best service possible!

Welcome to the Moose!

We love the Modern Moose! This is our 3rd stay at this property. Shay, your host is responsive and kind ( although we’ve never had any issues) The home is always cleans and comfortable. The location can’t be beat with quick access to both canyons and this year we even made a day trip to Snow Basin with ease. Thanks for a fabulous place to stay!

Awesome house.. great owner.. even better than expected

We were a group of 8 adults - and the house was more than big enough. Two great common rooms, amazing kitchen, super modern and perfectly clean. Shay was great from start to finish.. responded to inquiries, provided us everything we needed. As for location - if you're skiing Cottonwood Canyons you really can't get much closer to the entrance to both.

Perfect for our family!

This property has a fabulous location for access to the canyons and valley. It was super clean and well stocked. The beds were comfortable and we had plenty of space for our group of 6. Loved having the entertainment area with games, basketball shoot and video game console for my teens. Kept them all happy when not out and about. Shay was responsive and great to work with. We will be back for sure!

Excellent Vacation Rental

We loved this townhouse. The location is fantastic and the remodel is very tastefully done while still feeling cozy and welcoming. The beds are comfortable. There is plenty of room for a family with great couches for lounging and talking. The home was also well stocked for a rental--basic kitchen supplies and spices, shampoo, conditioner, soap and laundry products. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. The only thing I would change is to add a blind to the upper window in the master bedroom. I know this is difficult with this shaped window and we knew from the pictures that it didn't have one so we expected light to come through in the morning, but I would have loved to have a little more darkness for sleeping in. All in all a wonderful place and we would totally reccomend it.

Great access point with all the amenities

Great place, very comfortable for two families of four. Location for skiing was excellent! Only downsides were the road noise as it backs onto a busy road and neighbor noise as it is a condo. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and would stay again!

Modern Moose is a must!!

Everything about our stay at The Modern Moose was excellent! It was the perfect place for our annual friends ski trip. The house is lovely, comfortable and centrally located. An easy drive up the mountain to skiing and a short drive to stores and restaurants. We loved the basement with games, the hot tub and the extremely comfortable couch after a day of skiing. Shay was very communicative and a pleasure to work with. We will definitely be back next year!!

Family Ski Trip

Family of 5 adults stayed at Modern Moose for our yearly ski trip. The house was beautiful and had everything we could have needed. We enjoyed the fully stocked kitchen and the hot tub was perfect after days on the slopes. The full sized washer and dryer was so appreciated. The host was extremely responsive and wonderful to work with. We will be back.

Thanksgiving at the Moose

We had a wonderful stay at the Modern Moose for the week of Thanksgiving. The house is adorable and was just perfect for us! It is in a beautiful location, it looks just like it does in the photos, it was really spread out and roomy, and we cooked up a storm. It really felt like a home away from home. It was spotless, and seamless as far as figuring things out. Communication with the owner was very timely to answer any of our questions. It truly was a great find! I'd love to stay there again!
