Resorts West is pleased to introduce a 3-bedroom Black Diamond Lodge condo to its exclusive Deer Valley® rental inventory.
Black Diamond, a ski-in/ski-out lodge located in Deer Valley Resort’s Snow Park base area, overlooks Wide West run, a gentle slope suited to skiers of all ages and abilities. Restaurants, boutiques, child care and ski school — as well as two central lifts to more advanced terrain — are accessible on skis.
The 2,200 square-foot condo features elegant hardwood floors and beams, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, gas fireplaces and a private outdoor hot tub. Each bedroom suite offers a private bath and flat-screen TV for comfort and convenience.
From the spacious living room, large picture windows open to views of year-round excitement on the slopes. In the summer, the lower ski runs become grass seating for concerts at the Snow Park Amphitheater — and the Black Diamond balcony becomes front-row access to performances by local musicians, Grammy Award-winning artists and the Utah Symphony | Utah Opera. Snow Park also offers lift-served hiking and mountain biking with easy access to Main Street, located less than a mile away.
Guests of Black Diamond also enjoy a fitness facility, steam room, sauna, heated underground parking garage and on-site breakfast café. Speak to one of our Deer Valley ski vacation specialists at 1-877-773-1117 or e-mail us at reservations@resortswest.com to learn more about this exceptional condo.
After a day of Park City adventure – whether skiing, snowboarding or simply exploring the town’s many boutiques, galleries and restaurants – sometimes the best moments happen at the end of the day, when everyone has gathered back “home” for a night of entertainment with friends and family.
