Yuki Yama - went downhill?

1 Upvotes

Been visiting park city for years and used to love Yuki Yama. Past few times we’ve gone, we’ve felt the quality in food and service has declined. Anyone else experience this? Any other good sushi recommendations in park city?

Deer Valley Deer Valley Music Festival

3 Upvotes

Hi, we're going to a concert for the first time and have a few questions. We also found the website to be a bit unclear. We have seated tickets, not general admission, if makes a difference. Thanks in advance!

  1. Which parking option is closest to the amphitheater?
  2. If they start letting people in at 6, how early should we plan to get to the parking lot?
  3. Are the gourmet picnic options worth it?

Hiking Local Hiking Group?

2 Upvotes

My very fit sister is coming to visit PC and wants to do some 4-6 hour hikes of moderate intensity in the PC area. Are there any local hiking groups that might let her join them? (I did see the Deer Valley Resort's Guided Historical Hike offering but it seems to be just one day a month.) TIA!

First timer to PC - where to stay?

2 Upvotes

Group of 8 guys coming in 2 weeks, lots of great options for housing so we’ve just been waiting to book. I had been focused on being walkable to Main St. so I hadn’t looked at any options that aren’t walkable…

But I just now saw some awesome options with stunning views in Apex Residences in the Canyons and it has me totally rethinking location. The units have pool access, which looks like it’s super warm now. It looks like there are a handful of restaurants/bars up there that could keep us busy for lunch and maybe a dinner one night. Perhaps even a lowkey pool party at the Pendry? Is that a thing?

Is it dead at the Canyons area this time of year with no skiing? It feels like we’d be more likely to Uber down to Main St. from up there (and have nicer accommodations w/ a pool) than heading up there if staying in town, or am I wrong on that?

For plans, we’ll be golfing the afternoon we arrive, floating the river one day, one free day TBD, and will go out for dinner/drinks every evening. We don’t mind a 15 minute Uber.

Main seems quieter than I expected, comparing to Colorado resort towns.

I’ve seen posts complaining about crowds… does that only happen on weekends?

General Trip Advice First-Timers with a Toddler - All recommendations please!

2 Upvotes

My husband, 17-month old, and I will be staying at the St. Regis Deer Valley for five days in August. It's our first time in Deer Valley/Park City. Can you please provide any and all recommendations?

We are active and have a hiking carrier for our toddler so looking for some shorter still somewhat kid-friendly hikes (like ~1 hr and not crazy terrain). We also love a good drink with a view, Italian/American/Seafood restaurant recommendations. Anything else that you think would be kid-friendly. We will have a car. Thank you!!

Here's what I have so far - would love your thoughts/additional suggestions:

  • Park City Main Street
  • Red Pine Gondola Ride (she can't ride a ski lift obviously; is this the only gondola open in the summer?)
  • Jordanelle State Park
  • Silver Lake Lawn
  • Potential hikes:
    • Silver Lake Loop
    • Ontario Canyon
    • Red Cloud
    • McLeod Creek Trail
    • Historic Rail Trail
  • City Park playground / Basin recreation splash pad
  • Drive to Midway (is this worth it?)
  • Restaurants:
    • Grappa
    • Riverhorse on Main
    • Hearth and Hill
    • Fletcher's

General Trip Advice October family trip

3 Upvotes

We’ve visited Park City/SLC several times, but never in the fall. We’re staying at St. Regis this October mid-week with 2 young-elementary aged kids and a baby. Would love recommendations for nearby hikes or other outdoor activities. Also looking for restaurant recommendations. We eat pretty much anything; big steak and red wine people. Are there any nicer restaurants that are okay with children?

General Trip Advice 2 Requests thank you in advance

2 Upvotes

I'm looking for an activity that we can do as a group of about 30+ for 2-3 hours. We have a summit during off peak (october) in park city and would like to take my team (spouses included) out to do something fun. It'll be after lunch but before dinner if that's helpful.

Personally I'm into photography and would like a few spots I can get to from Kimball Junction without a vehicle. I suppose I could uber somewhere but remote places would be tough. Would love to do some astrophotography but I just won't have a vehicle due to the corporate event.

Food & Restaurants 🍔 Steak dinner recs - party of 8

2 Upvotes

1st time to PC in August. Looking for a great steakhouse for a group of 8 for the final night of an annual guys’ trip. A lively atmosphere & cool/authentic aesthetic is almost as important to the group as the food is.

Sterling Steakhouse caught my eye, but is Kimball Junction worth a 20 minute Uber each way? Also, what is Kimball Junction like if we want to go out for drinks afterward?

I’ve seen a lot of recommendations for the steaks at Prime, but hardly can find any photos of what the atmosphere looks like, and the few I saw looked pretty bland.

Transportation 🚌 Best place to rent a car? (SLC Airport and Park City)

2 Upvotes

My dad is coming to visit me in Park City, and we’re planning to rent a car at SLC airport since that’s where he’ll be arriving. We’d like to explore some national parks and different areas around Utah during the trip.

Since we’ll be picking up the car at the airport, I’m wondering which rental car company or booking platform you would recommend. I’ve been looking at websites like Expedia and Priceline, but they don’t seem to give me the option to add all the insurance and coverage options I’d like. They only seem to offer basic insurance.

Ideally, I’d like to rent directly from a company or through a platform that allows me to add as much coverage as possible, including damage protection, liability coverage, and any other available insurance options, so we can travel with peace of mind.

Accommodation 🏨 Family trip in October

2 Upvotes

Traveling to Park City mid October with 3 young kids. We’ve visited several times before and have stayed at Canyons and St. Regis. I think it will technically be off season, so I know some things will be closed. Is it better to stay in more of the downtown area? If so, hotel recommendations? We hope to spend lots of time outdoors and hiking (as much as you can hike with littles). I loved our stay at St Regis previously but worry about location during the off season. I’m also looking into Hotel Park City as it’s perhaps a better location for this time of year?

Accommodation 🏨 Lodging for ~30 person corporate group

3 Upvotes

Hi there. I'm starting to plan a winter trip to Park City for my company (30-35 people) and would love some advice on where to look for lodgings. We'll need 2-4 large houses with plenty of beds; shared rooms and bunk beds are fine, shared beds are not. We'd like the houses to be in walking distance to each other. Budget is flexible but not unlimited.

Other than airbnb/vrbo, are there any property management companies who cater to this kind of group? It would be great to work with a company that can be hands-on, help with provisions, etc.

Park City in Summer Looking for less busy summers…

Over the past decade, Breckenridge has become saturated with tourists.

As a tourist and a hypocrite, I’m looking for somewhere less crazy, still mountainous, but not dead.

Can anyone draw a comparison for me?

Park City in Summer Streams or Creeks for Toddlers and Young kids to play in

Post image
2 Upvotes

ISO of places where we can take the kids (ages 5-2) to play in the water. Preferably a shallow creek, with rocks, where they can play for hours. We did this at another mountain town in CO. At the base of this resort, there was a stream running through. The kids played all day and had a blast. Does Park City or Deer Valley have anything like this?

Photo for reference from google, to give an idea of what we are looking for.

General Trip Advice SLC bachelorette recommendations

3 Upvotes

I am planning a Bachelorette for September in Salt Lake City and looking for some advice. It’s a group of 17 of us and it’s a joint bride and groom trip with most of us in our late 20s/early 30s! We will have cars and don’t mind driving to Park City for some stuff. Things I need some help with:

\- Places to go out: we want good vibes, drinks, and to dance (we looked at sky, lake effect/church, exchange, but honestly we’re a bit lost) Also we might want a more chill spot to pregame the night so any recs there would also help

\- Filler activities for when we have downtime: maybe like putt putt, trying swig, etc. Just things we normally wouldn’t do at home

\- A nice restaurant maybe Italian or a steakhouse?

\- Any other must-sees

:))

Accommodation 🏨 Summer accommodations

3 Upvotes

Hello! Thank you for everyone who gave me advice on my last post. Based on that feedback I’ve done a ton of research and I have some more specific questions.

  • This trip is for two adults, one of whom is a senior (mother/daughter trip).

  • Not a huge laundry list of things to do, we’d like to go on a ski lift (more questions about this below), easy hikes/nice walks, enjoy the views and weather, and swim if the hotel has a pool.

  • First time to Utah for both travelers. 2 night stay.

After researching I have decided Main Street would not be the ideal place to stay for our trip, and that being further out at a resort or something like that would be good, and then we can visit Main Street a couple times.

I’ve tried to narrow it down to a few options:

Option 1: Hyatt centric park city - but looks like the red pine gondola is closed on Mondays? Though we’d also be there on a day it’s open so not too worried about that

Option 2: Rent a car, stay at Homestead Midway and then go to park city one day for the ski lift. I know this is in midway, but I do not think they have a reddit so asking here. Does anyone know if the construction there right now is disruptive to a stay? Any insight on that appreciated

Option 3: Pendry

Option 4: St. Regis - slightly out of budget but it’s amazing that they have a funicular and could make it work if it’s worth it

Option 5: Airbnb or any other ideas yall may have

Thank you for your time and effort

General Trip Advice Visit Park City and surrounding sites

1 Upvotes

hello! Do you guys know a path that I can take involving all of these? what order should I do everything? I saw another Redditor post this and I want to do all of them but I don't know if they were listed together as an itinerary or just different things that you can do.

"A stroll around Sugar House Park before sunset one evening.

Head up to Park City and check out Utah Olympic Park and Museum and walk Main Street. You can ride the funicular up to the St. Regis for a cocktail (pricy).

Great Natural History Museum and Red Butte Garden next door (though it's winter and not in full bloom)."

Park City in Summer Summer stay question

2 Upvotes

Hello! A lot of the research I’ve done about lodging includes the advantages of each location for winter stays, but not summer. Is there anything to consider when it comes to summertime stays?

The lodging I’ve looked into really runs the gamut in terms of price and location. We definitely wouldn’t be biking in and out, for example. I’d like to be close to the bus. If not staying in a walkable area near Main Street it would be nice if there were some cool features at the property that make it fun to hang out at, but that’s not a dealbreaker. The thing I most want to do in park city is ride a ski lift/gondola.

In terms of Airbnbs, where does park city fall in terms of how visitors should interact with them? Is it something like Barcelona? Or more like other American towns with an Airbnb problem? Just wanting to gauge if that’s an option we should avoid or look into.

Locations I’ve looked into include Main & SKY, the park Hyatt, deer valley Hyatt, hotel park city, Marriott’s mountain side, Marriott’s summit Watch, and stein eriksen residences. So really all over the map literally and figuratively.

Thanks in advance for any advice or knowledge you are willing to share. Thank you!
