About this property

Luxurious Upscale Studio Condominium With Spectacular Views

This luxurious studio condominium comfortably sleeps 2 and is locatedo in the highly desirable Blackjack Lodge in Alta. An elevator provides easy access to the condo on the 3rd floor. Blackjack Lodge is ideally located between the Alta and Snowbird ski resorts. You can ski-in and ski-out to Snowbird, depending on snow conditions, and ski home from Alta if you are comfortable skiing off piste and know the way home. A free ski shuttle runs between the lodge and both Alta ski area bases daily from mid-December thru March to get you to and from the slopes. Dining options abound and are only minutes away at either Alta or Snowbird. If you don't feel like driving, or shuttled up from the airport, there is a free shuttle (mid-December thru March) in the evening from 5-10pm with drop offs and pickups in the Town of Alta & Snowbird. It’s literally just a few minutes drive to either resort. More information is available in the binder in the condo. Whether you rent a car or drive to Alta in your own vehicle, 4 wheel drive is highly recommended and sometimes required as Little Cottonwood Canyon is a 2 lane mountain road often restricted to 4 x 4 vehicles with snow tires and/or chains during a storm cycle, which is why Alta is “Rated #1 for Snow” year after year.

In addition to your fabulous on mountain experience, are the spectacular Mt. Superior, Hellgate Cliffs and down canyon views from this condo. After a full day on the mountain, returning to this condo, relaxing in front of the fireplace and watching the sunset over the Wasatch mountains will complete your day. Little Cottonwood canyon is truly an amazing place and Mt. Superior, one of the most photographed mountains in the world, is literally right outside your window.

The condo has been totally remodeled and includes a fully equipped kitchen with custom knotty alder cabinetry, granite countertops, Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer with ice maker, Wolf electric cook top and full size convection oven. There is radiant heated travertine tile flooring in the entry, kitchen and bathroom. Premium wool carpet covers the living area floor. Nothing feels better than returning after a full day on the mountain, removing your boots and stepping into the condo on the heated floor to warm your feet. There is a wood burning fireplace, with free firewood provided, a queen size Murphy bed, full size sofa sleeper, Smart TV with fiber optic high speed internet for streaming . Additionally, there is a free washer & dryer on each floor. . A private ski locker with a Master combination lock is also provided in the locker room on the main floor for your ski gear.

FYI- Dogs are NOT allowed in Blackjack Condo's due to allergies.

This is truly a one of a kind property in Alta which offers easy access to the 2 World Class Resorts in Little Cottonwood Canyon in the Wasatch Mountains of Utah. It truly is Powder Paradise.

Awesome visit to Alta

I had a great time staying at Blackjack. I stayed for 10 days and the place was perfect for me. The shuttle to Alta and the parking space made the place very convenient and comfortable. Thank you for your hospitality!

Fabulous ski-in/ski-out for Snowbird

The condo is beautiful! Wonderful Mountain View, upscale appliances and furnishings, wood fireplace, super easy parking, and easy ski down to the Snowbird lifts and ski back at the end of the day. I wouldn’t describe it as ‘spacious’, however it is perfect for two, has plenty of storage, a full kitchen and a luxurious feel. I would definitely stay again!

Perfect Spot for Couples skiing Snowbird/Alta

Perfect studio apartment for 1-2 people skiing Alta & Snowbird. Easy check-in, and communication. Key highlights was the awesome kitchen, small but mighty! Murphy bed wasn't the comfiest but made it work for our stay. Overall, great value for the space and location and would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay close to the slopes.

Great Ski Condo at a Great Ski Resort

Great condo and perfect for my wife and I. Very clean with a lot of updates to the room with a great view. For skiers the best part was a free shuttle on call from 8 AM to 5PM to transport you from your condo to the Alta Base areas.

Great Spot For Powder Fun

I enjoyed staying in this beautiful unit and cozying up near the fire after a hard day on the slopes. Great location and ample parking. I highly recommend this well appointed unit. Awesome view and easy access to and from the slopes. I recommend bringing plenty of food if you’d like to cook. The kitchen has plenty of utensils for that purpose and it’s easier than trying to go out to eat at night.

Easy access to Alta

Cozy studio with close access to Snowbird (if the Peruvian bowl and chair are open) and a free shuttle away from Alta. We cooked most meals for the week and the unit has enough cooking tools for us to roast, fry, and boil everything we had in mind. In our being super close to the mountains, we skipped almost all of the traffic, but if they're blasting snow in the morning, we felt it.

High quality

All the interior finishes were very good quality and the layout is very well designed. Perfect place for a couple to stay. Ski locker downstairs was easy to use, and the building is very quiet, everyone we encountered was super friendly and helpful. Getting to the base area and out to dinner at night was easy. Never waited more than 5 min for the Alta shuttle. Steve was very easy to communicate with and never had any issues.

Great spot for Snowbird/Alta

This is a great spot for anyone trying to ski Snowbird and Alta. It was so nice to avoid canyon traffic in the morning and afternoon. On the weekend we saved ourselves hours of sitting in traffic. The condo has everything two people need to be very comfortable. It is immaculate with high end finishings. Steve (owner) provided great communication about the condo and how to make the most of our trip. A tip for anyone considering staying here - if you are able to ski the Peruvian lift at Snowbird, you'll have no trouble skiing in and out at Snowbird. If that is a little too much for your ability, parking along the road near the Cliff Lodge is very easy.

About the host

Hosted by Steve

Host profile image
I first came to Alta with a couple ski buddies for a weeks vacation in the mid-70's after graduating from college. We stayed a week in one of the lodges after which my buddies flew home to their families and jobs. I just couldn't leave so I got a job at the GMD lodge and stayed 5 years. Needless to say my parents were not happy I was ski bumming with a college degree they had paid for. Truth is Alta had gotten in my blood in 1 short week. When I eventually did leave I vowed to somehow try to return to Alta. After going back to school and then entering the real job world I met my future wife. I had to bring her to Alta to see if we were really compatible. She fell in love with Alta immediately and we eventually started coming to Blackjack Lodge on our ski vacations. We like to cook so the idea of having our own kitchen, fireplace and no schedule for meals was a no brainer. In 1998 a studio came up for sale and we bought it sight unseen. We have been enjoying this powder paradise ever since.

If you decide to come to Alta and stay at Blackjack I'm sure you won't be sorry. If you have any questions I will be glad to try to answer them, if I don't know the answer I'll find out for you. If you want to know the way to ski home from Alta I can definitely help you with that , please feel free to ask me anything you like, I'll be happy to talk to you!!
