The Lodge at Blue Sky, Auberge Resorts Collection

An easy 45 minute drive from SLC airport, the Lodge has just as much to do in March as in the regular ski season. My friend and I enjoyed yoga, axe-throwing, horseback riding, dying with dried flowers, and more. The lodge largely lives up to its 5 star reputation with just a few small flies in the ointment. First the positive. The staff is amazingly kind and attentive. Any difficulty or request we had was handled quickly and cheerfully (my friend had a LOT of requests). The facilities are lovely, especially the spa, which has a beautiful waiting room with floor to ceiling windows and yummy snacks. The food at Yuta and at the bar was generally excellent. The wine list was spectacular. The bathroom in our earth suite was opulent -- stunning and spacious with a great soaking tub. The suite itself was attractively furbished and included free snacks and juices. Activities are fun. We had 5 days of sunshine and temps almost reaching 70. Views are beautiful, if a little arid at this time of year. We saw a beaver and a chipmunk, but apparently elk and moose also appear occasionally. The outdoor infinity swimming pool is heated (bring a suit!). The folks who helped us plan the schedule were helpful and efficient. A few little things weren't perfect. For some reason, the housekeeping staff isn't quite as good as the rest, so (for example) the fruit bowl was never replenished all week; a card advertised lip balm, but the lip balm was missing; times for an event (a taco evening) were noted incorrectly. No biggies. The veggie burger, a flat tasteless disc, was our only bad food experience. Our biggest surprise had to do with architecture: in the earth suites, the suite part is quite cramped, with a small seating area pushed up against the bed near the front door. And yet the bathroom area is so huge that it has more square footage than the living area. It's all completely wasted -- you could hold a square dance in there. If they had pushed the dividing wall back 10 feet it would have made a big difference. Do I recommend? Yes. Expensive, but very nice.

The Lodge at Blue Sky, Auberge Resorts Collection, is a place for healing which is just what my son and I needed after losing our home in the Pacific Palisades fire. The service is seamless and the accommodations, cuisine and experiential activities are all top notch. The setting is unparalleled in that you are so close to the mountain town of Park City yet worlds away in a picturesque setting that screams "Wide Open Spaces!" I cannot wait to return to this new "home away from home!"

Blue Sky Lodge is a wonderful way to experience Park City/Deer Valley. I was a bit concerned about staying 30 mins away from the slopes, but it was effortless with the hotel shuttle. And we loved the ski lounge in Park City, which is just a few steps from the lift. We were the only ones on the shuttle both days. The hotel has fewer rooms than I realized, which made it feel more intimate and so easy to access the lounge, restaurant, fitness center and spa. Valet service was super fast, and any requests we had were promptly addressed. All around service was a 10/10. The Edge Spa is wonderful and has gorgeous views of the snowy mountains in the waiting area. All our meals were good, especially breakfast. We did wish the hotel had one more restaurant. We were there four nights—ate at Yuta one night, the lounge two nights (one for Tacocat special menu which was so good), and then we drove back in to Park City one night. If staying longer than that, it would make meals a little more difficult unless you’re okay with eating at the same place multiple nights. The staff were all so friendly and all knew us by name and made my husband’s birthday extra special with lots of well wishes and some birthday treats. I would love to return again some time, perhaps in a warmer season to enjoy the outdoor spaces and experiences.

Beautiful winter wonderland getaway for the weekend. Great staff. Calm, gorgeous facility. Off the beaten path but still very easy to get to Park City, Deer Valley, and Midway. Lovely to visit in the winter but looking forward to visiting again during the late summer or early fall to really get to take advantage of the property and amenities.

Absolutely incredible venue. We were lucky enough to spend a few days here and had the best time. You could stay inside the room the whole time and be very happy, but there are also so many beautiful ammenities and activities. Food, wine, cocktails are all top-notch.

This place is exceptional. A true vacation. Then resort integrates seamlessly into the landscape and you are offered a rare opportunity to appreciate the Mother Nature. Blue sky is 1 of 1. We have stayed all over the world at various rosewoods and auberge property’s. This one sets itself apart from the rest. We will be back soon!
