Canyons Village is the base area on the west side of Park City Mountain, the largest ski resort in the United States. It sits just off State Route 224, a few minutes from Kimball Junction, which makes it the easiest Park City base to reach after a flight into Salt Lake City.
Staying here means you start the day at the lifts instead of in a parking lot. The village has restaurants, shops and après right at the base.
