Short Stay

Beautiful location and home - had some issues right off the bat with the house having a propane leak and us needing to be moved. The hosting company and Carol were great and got everything fixed, then the hot water went out in the house. Bumpy stay and we were supposed to receive a refund towards our stay but never did. Hot water came on later in the evening. The summer months are awesome there - the porch needs updated outdoor furniture too. Chairs are flimsy and some of them broke. We dusted everything off and got it all ready to use - it would have been nice to have that ready when we arrived. Overall everything worked out and they allowed us to stay for a late check out which we were grateful for.

Perfect Staycation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I was so excited to book this place with my friends that were both locals to SLC and coming in for my birthday celebration. The cabin was so cozy from every little detail! I personally was so impressed with how little the noise traveled from the bedrooms to those that were out in the bigger space. I wish we would have known exactly how far from Brighton the cabin was before booking, because it did add some stress with the parking pass requirements that Brighton Ski Resort now has for the weekends. However, as always it all worked out!

Beautiful Brighton home

This home has it all. Conveniently located between Brighton and Solitude resorts, beautiful views out the back, plenty of room and amenities inside, and the property manager couldn't have been more helpful as we had trouble finding the property in the dark and understanding which keypad we should have used to enter the property. We would definitely stay here again!

Jan ski vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We rented this house for our annual ski vacation because of its close proximity to Brighton and Solitude ski resorts. We have 4 adults in our group. The house was very spacious, comfortable and well stocked with basic household and kitchen items. The management staff members were very responsive to our inquires and provided very useful information regarding grocery stores at the foot of the canyon and places for ski rentals. Overall, our trip was a very pleasant experience. We would highly recommend this home for a ski vacation in the Big Cottonwood Canyon.

Lovely Family Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed here with family for a week prior to our son’s wedding at Brighton ski resort. We loved the big kitchen, the comfortable beds and the beautiful river we could hear and look at from the deck. We had frequent moose sightings including a mother and two calves who spent about 30 minutes in the backyard enjoying the river while we watched from the deck. We didn’t turn in the tv a single time because there was so much good hiking and relaxing activities to enjoy in the area. It was a perfect place for us to enjoy family time before the big wedding weekend.

Completely Peaceful

Rivamonte is heaven on earth. It is so peaceful and the view out the back of the house is amazing. The sound of the running river is so soothing and refreshing. The house is well decorated and the kitchen is well stocked. There are more than enough towels in the bathroom and there were large bottles of shampoo and conditioner and body wash. We did not want for anything and we will definitely be back!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, the place is beautiful, comfortable, And well appointed - Plenty of room and nicely stocked in every way. Also, a great location to skiing. However, it wasn't very clean. Some of the dishes and pots needed washing before we used them. Some bedding was clearly used before we arrived. The dryer was filled with towels and bedding the we had to fold and put away. I also had remove about a foot on snow from the driveway upon our arrival. Overall, it was very nice and we would stay again.

Winter stay at Rivamonte

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall loved my time at this rental property. Very close to Brighton which is so convenient. Well stocked kitchen and lots of extra linens. The online listing stated 3 king beds and 1 queen; in reality, one of these 3 king beds had been replaced by two twin beds. Additionally, we were told only 3 small cars could fit in the driveway; however, it is possible to fit more. Overall very happy with the experience though.

Love This Awesome House near Brighton 2014 and 2015

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our second year to stay here. The house is beautiful. Fully furnished and plenty of supplies, even including many cooking ingredients...spices, cooking oil, etc. Large capacity washer and dryer can in handy. Lots of linens and blankets as well as paper goods....napkins, paper plates, paper towels, and Kleenex. (Toilet tissue too of course.)Comfortable and spacious, it sleeps 10 very easily. Well maintained and warmed by radiant heat. Great fireplace too. Never needed to change temps on any floor. Our only concern on both visits is the danger of ice on driveway, steps leading into house, and on the lower back porch. We had three falls last March and one this year. Would like to see something done to address that one issue. Otherwise it is an amazing place to stay, perfect for our family, and very close to Brighton Ski area (less than mile...sometimes individuals would walk to it.) When we decide to ski Utah again we will definitely choose Point Clan. It helped make each trip memorable for our families. Our thanks to the owners for sharing their home. Well done.

Great place so close to Brighton/Solitude!

We had a great experience at this property. We were sent a great info booklet in advance that greatly helped with planning our trip and also was super helpful for the check in process. They were very available for any questions we had. The place is excellent with 4 full bedrooms and two separate living areas; great for kids or multiple families. While a bit of a tougher walk in ski boots, Brighton is walkable or a short drive to the parking lot, with Solitude just a bit farther (driving is necessary). Both mountains were awesome and it was great!

Great property and great location

My friends and I rented Rivamonte for a guys trip to Brighton and Solitude. The property was awesome. The location is just down the hill from the Brighton Lupine Loop. Probably not walkable in ski boots, but still very close. We ended up driving to Alta Snowbird one day which is about 35 minutes away. Parking at Brighton was easy. The house was clean and very comfortable. I could live at this house year round, no problem. The kitchen was clean and well equipped and the two gas fireplaces made for a very welcoming and relaxing environment after a day of skiing. The beds were all very comfortable with great views. Despite all intentions, we never made it to the upstairs loft for a foosball tournament. The management provided great communication before and after our arrival and were quick to respond to questions. Overall we Enjoyed our stay and would recommend the property. Thanks for hosting.

Great Ski Cabin!

Great fully equipped cabin, but would have enjoyed a hot tub! Literally the only down side was not having a hot tub to help after long days skiing. Great location it is to ski to Solitude and head from there to Brighton. Spent two weeks there and never felt the need to leave for meals. Well stocked for cooking or grilling all your meals! Super clean and cozy for families.
