Deer Valley ranked #1 again by SKI magazine!

Rated the top North American ski resort by readers of SKI magazine for the third time! The resort received a #1 ranking in 2002, 2005 and now again this year. Deer Valley Resort is also consistently ranked #1 in the individual areas of dining, guest service and mountain grooming. Deer Valley is more than a winter resort, it's an experience.

Since opening in 1981, Deer Valley Resort in Park City, Utah has become known for its revolutionary approach to ski area service. We are committed to providing a level of care rarely found at a ski resort; delivering classic, consistent, and quality service both on and off the mountain.

For discerning travellers looking for ski-in, ski-out access and luxurious accomodations, Larkspur at Deer Valley is a great place to stay.

Deer Valley is scheduled to open for the 2007-2008 winter ski season on Saturday, December 8, 2007 and close on Sunday, April 13, 2008.

The Top Five Reasons Deer Valley is the Best Ski Resort 

  • Given the vast amount of terrain (21 lifts serving 91 runs) and the lack of lines (ticket sales are limited to 6,500 a day), skiers might squeeze in twice as many runs during a weekend at Deer Valley as at another resort.
  • At night, Park City's lively Main Street is the place to be. A turn-of-the-century mining town with a gutsy frontier feeling, Park City offers everything from upscale boutiques to an impressive array of restaurants for every taste and budget.
  • The real value at Deer Valley, however, lies in the amount of skiing you can get for your money: if you take a flight from New York City by 7:30 a.m., you can be on the slopes by noon local time. When you arrive, you can even convert your boarding pass into a free same-day lift ticket at any Deer Valley sales window.
  • When Deer Valley was founded in 1981, the Utah resort was aimed at affluent, middle-age skiers looking for perfectly groomed slopes and gold-plated service. Lately, the area has added both more expert-level terrain and more pint-sized amenities, making it an increasingly popular destination for families.
  • It's also easy to get to - just 36 miles from the Salt Lake City airport - and you do not need a car, since regular shuttle buses run to the airport ($19 to $32) and to downtown Park City.
