Awesome Host, location and clean

This was my second time staying at Olympus cove and it could not have been better. It is quiet, clean, well stocked and in a safe neighborhood. The yard was perfect for my dog to roam around in. Their garden area is beautiful. Darrin is a great host, very responsive and easy to work with. This has become my go to place in Salt Lake area and I'll definitely stay here again.

Fabulous place to stay

This is a fantastic place in an excellent location. It has everything you could need. It is well appointed with comfortable furnishings and all the amenities. The kitchen has more pots, pans, dishes, and kitchen appliances than I have at my own home. The only drawback is there is no provided TV service. I was able to log into my streaming services, so it wasn't a problem, just remember to bring your log in info. Overall, we were very satisfied with the property and would definitely stay there again.

Super comfortable, great location

We had a wonderful stay at Darrin's property. It was probably one of the most well-stocked vacation rentals I've stayed in with lots of kitchen supplies, towels, blankets, etc. We appreciated Darrin's quick communication, the easy check-in and-out process and the fast internet. Highly recommend!

Fabulous stay

Returning to the SLC Valley to visit friends and family, this 2 bedroom was a great find. Advertisement says basement apartment but as a walk-out it was light with full ground level windows. Truly the cleanest and well-appointed VRBO we’ve ever stayed. The property owns we’re a delight, making us and our dog feel welcome at every turn (our pup even found a bestie in one of their pups). Garden and yard was spectacular and a lovely environment to entertain our family one evening. Cannot say enough good about this rental. We’ll definitely back!

Wonderful Olympus Cove apartment!

Our stay at the Olympus Cove apartment was perfect! The apartment was clean, comfortable and stocked with everything we needed and more. The beds were so comfortable and the apartment stayed warm even during the snow storm. The owner was very easy to work with and the keyless entry was very convenient. Instructions for Wi-Fi as well as departure details were clear. Our winter vacation in the mountains couldn’t have been better. We look forward to returning to this great rental in the future. Hopefully the skiing will be just as perfect too! I definitely recommend this rental. It’s one of the best we’ve stayed in. 👍👍

Don’t think twice…BOOK. It’s all in the details!

After selling our home, we landed in this warm, cozy and welcoming VRBO for a few weeks. The attention to detail is amazing. One could come with a few groceries, walk into the kitchen and make your meal. From the well appointed kitchen with everything you need to make your meal; very nice pots and pans, available spices in the cupboards, wonderful kitchen appliances, cooking and eating utensils and everything you need for your table. The coffee bar is fabulous. The beds were extremely comfortable with great bed linens. Bathrooms were stocked with everything you would need including the softest towels ever. We enjoyed having our own patio, and looking out on the beautiful yard. If you are a skier, they have boot driers and a place for all of your winter gear. The place is close to Park City and the Cottonwoods. Great restaurants and grocery shopping is 2 minutes away. The owner is very welcoming and we could not recommend it more highly.

Super comfortable, clean, with all the amenities

Our stay at Olympus Cove was great! The owners were easy to communicate with, the property was beautiful, and the apartment was so clean and cozy. All the little extras that make your stay so comfortable were thought of: charging cubes on each side of the beds, snacks water and coffee, laundry supplies, extra toiletries and paper products, fans in each room, and extra pillows and blankets. We highly recommend this property and if we visit SLC again we would absolutely stay here!

Great place to stay

This was a wonderful place to stay at while a family member was having surgery. Beds were comfortable! be careful of the bed frames as they stick out a little bit and can hit your shin. Great sitting area and yard. So nice to have ability to do laundry. Bathrooms could use a little deep clean, but still great and nice to have bathtub. Couch is comfortable, but be mindful of sitting down on the seam, it is a sectional so it is very hard if you sit right between the pieces of the couch. Overall we really enjoyed our stay! Thanks you Darrin!

Just as Described!

This property is just as described, comfortable, immaculate, tastefully decorated, and stocked with items you may need. It’s like you are staying at a friend’s place and any need is anticipated. The only suggestion we would have is to include written directions for regulating the thermostat. Darrin was quick to respond to any questions. We were visiting from Pennsylvania, our son and daughter-in-law live exactly 4 minutes away, and with a baby on the way, I’m sure we’ll be back!

We recently stayed and had a fantastic experience. The location and condition of the property were beyond our expectations. We traveled with our 2 dogs and the fenced yard was a blessing. And how do you get the grass so green? Darrin is easy to work with and very responsive. We are in SLC a couple of times a year and will defintely stay there again.

Perfectly located, comfortable home away from home

I have nothing but good things to say about this place. It was a comfortable home away from home during the two weeks we were in SL to visit family. Easy drive from the airport, easy check-in and communication with Darrin via text; a short drive or a ten minute walk through the picturesque neighborhood to a shopping center with a supermarket, sports store, and about a half dozen good places to eat. It was also only a ten or fifteen minute drive to some beautiful hiking trails in Mill Creek Canyon. The apartment itself was spacious, super clean, and well organized = exactly like the pictures. WiFi connection was excellent. We don't usually watch TV, but appreciated being able to watch some playoff and World Series games once we figured out the operation of the TV remotes - Darrin advised via text. The kitchen had all the pots, pans, knives, dishes, and utensils needed to cook any meal. There was even a decent supply of spices. We were able to host our small family for dinner a few times. Although there were only two of us staying this time, there were two bedrooms (with very comfortable beds and bedding) and a bathroom arrangement (toilet and sink in a room next to but separate from shower and sink) that would work nicely for two couples or a small family. Plenty of towels, soaps, some toiletries. Access to the washing machine and dryer was also much appreciated - we used them once. I would definitely stay here again, Thank you, Darrin and Sterling.

Amazing Olympus Cove property

This spot was perfect for our month + stay. It’s located in a great neighborhood, with easy access to downtown salt lake, as well as big cottonwood and little cottonwood canyon. The place is clean, welcoming, spacious, and has all the amenities you need (plus more) to feel right at home. Darrin and Sterling are exceptionally kind, and super responsive to any questions or issues. My husband and I have been traveling and working from month long rentals for all of 2021 and this is by far the best place we’ve stayed. I would highly recommend.
