We truly loved every minute of our stay in this lovely home. It was the highlight of our trip to Park City. There were dart tournaments and fights over the hammock. The chickens and horses and daily visits from neighborhood dogs were so fun and enhanced our stay. The views were incredible, and Chantal was a welcoming and thoughtful host. We would love to go back!

Beautiful Home, Beautiful Neighborhood, Great Hosts and the Elk walking by were amazing.

Taking a family ski trip has been on our bucket list for years, and this summer we decided this was the year to do it! Park City was one of our top choices to visit. I also wanted to escape the constant reminder and stress of all things Covid, so I went searching for the ideal home to rent. We are a family of six with adult and teenage children. We also brought along our golden doodle, so we needed a pet friendly home. I came across Ruda Ranch during my search, and I was intrigued, so I booked it! My instincts did not fail me. This house was wonderful! It is large, warm, and very comfortable. Best of all, THE VIEWS ARE STUNNING! We woke up to the most breathtaking sunrises most days, and for two of them we had a herd (of at least 16) reindeer join us in the backyard for breakfast. Our dog was in heaven, too! He fully embraced the free-range lifestyle :-) Most of of family skied for a few days at Deer Valley Resort. The commute was very easy, even when there was traffic or snowy weather. We also went tubing at Woodward Park, which is located just up the interstate about 10 minutes. The house is convenient to everything (shopping, ski resorts, downtown Park City), but it's located in a quieter area a couple miles from Kimball Junction. Although we loved the activities and the area of Park City, we really enjoyed hanging out at the home and being together. Cooking/grilling meals, family games, fires, and relaxing while taking in the stunning views. It was a wonderful Christmas vacation! Chantal the owner is so nice and is eager to make sure her guests are comfortable and happy. This home is well equipped, so it can be overwhelming figuring everything out. Chantal was always made herself available to answer questions and help us get acclimated. If you want to visit Park City, I highly recommend your family or group stay at Ruda Ranch! It will be an unforgettable vacation.

So we decided we needed a vacation from the San Francisco Bay area during this time of Covid, and after looking at many different areas (Santa Fe, Jackson Hole, Scottsdale), we decided to go to Park City. We had vacationed there a few times before, but only in winter. The Knob Hill property looked great, and its location on 10 acres looked terrific (far from crowds), so we rented it for 9 nights, and drove 11 hours with our Golden Retriever and four road bikes to the property. We had an amazing time. We wanted rest, relaxation, a time for reading, doing puzzles, and getting outdoors far from people, and this place allowed us to do all of that, plus we could go into Historic downtown Park City 20 minutes away if we wanted to to wander the art galleries. There were 4 of us total that went (all in the family, all adults). The property is every bit as wonderful as it appears on the VRBO website. We particularly were interested in the chef's kitchen during Covid (since we did not want to eat out), and it did not disappoint. There was even a high end espresso machine, and high end cutlery. We are good cooks, and wanted to fend for ourselves, and the Knob Hill house afforded us that option. There was a Whole Foods, a wonderful bread bakery, and a wine shop only about 7 minutes from the house. We went on many long hikes right from the property (mountain bike trails with few people), which we and our dog loved. We had almost as much fun watching our dog have a good time as we had ourselves. Seriously. One even it was a 7 mile hike--right out the door. We were able to find bike trails for our road bikes where we could bike into Historic Park City from the house, mostly off of the main roads. The beds, the bedding, the towels, and the furniture made it feel like a very high end resort. You know how sometimes a place has mediocre beds and just OK pillows, well this place was not like that at all--it was all WONDERFUL. The gas grill on the patio was so good, I think I cooked the best steaks of my life. Seriously. Of course there was the fantastic hot tub. The owners were very communicative and helpful, and offered us suggestions to make our trip great that we would not have been able to come up with on our own. I highly recommend this place, and I can say without reservation, that we would not hesitate to return and rent the place again. Give it a try--you will not be sorry.

The house was clean, well stocked and Chantal was so welcoming upon arrival. She showed us the things we needed to know and introduced us to the chickens and cat. My kids loved pretending it was a farm. They collected eggs, visited the horses, and cuddled the cat. The house location is perfect if you want a quiet vacation home with a hot tub, plenty of yard and great neighborhood streets for walking. The house perks include large soaking tubs, comfortable furniture, luxury coffee machine, ice machine and filtered water. We drove into Park City a few times and it was an easy drive. We preferred being away from busy Park City, but close enough to visit a few times. Thanks for everything, Chantal!

This is a beautiful home in beautiful surroundings for any type of stay! We had a family reunion here and just loved it! The house was very clean, had beautiful furnishings, wonderful beds and bedding, a well-stocked pantry and kitchen, an absolutely beautiful porch with a huge wood-burning fireplace and hottub, and a very usable lawn (we played a lot of croquet)! My amateur chef son found everything he needed in the kitchen to make us some great meals. The views are incredible and we spent lots of time on the porch, day and night. Chantal was a great host and readily available to answer any question. She even had a welcome bottle of sparkling wine and a little food basket. Recommend highly!!

We were looking for a Covid summer escape with some room to spread out and this property was ideal. Ten acres with beautiful views and a remarkably relaxing setting. The house is awesome and was more than sufficient for our 5 adults. Lots of modern conveniences and fantastic beds. Outdoor areas were an oasis of peace and we enjoyed the outdoor fireplace and spa almost every night. Close enough to Kimball Junction to easily get take-out and only 15 minutes from downtown Park City. Major trail system connects just up the street which was great for evening hikes. Chantal was a dream to work with and we would not hesitate to stay here again. We are still mourning our return home...

We recently spent a week with family at this property - and it could not have been more perfect. The big yard, the trampoline and chickens were perfect for our 3 year old son. And the spacious back patio (with fireplace) was great for having dinners and hanging out. Chantal was an exceptional host and was always available to answer any questions we had. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful stay at this property. Located just outside of Park City, it made getting to town, Olympic Park and other locations very easy. The home is OUTSTANDING! Great layout, very clean and well appointed. The backyard is large and has amazing views which we enjoyed sitting outside every afternoon and evening. Chantal was an awesome host - super friendly and extremely responsive. I highly recommend staying here and I hope to be back soon!

Could not have asked for a better place for our stay. Kids loved the big yard with all the chickens, horses and trampoline. We ate so many meals outdoors with the incredible view. Pictures do not do it justice! It felt so secluded yet only minutes from all amenities. Highly recommend this house!

We had a wonderful and Chantal and her husband were so helpful! They even came out to help us get the fire started when we were having trouble. The cat was so sweet and we loved having her around! All around it was a great place to stay and I would stay again!

As soon as you walk in, the views took our breath away.. Incredible to see all the majestic mountains aligned in front of us! We spent most of our nights outside by the jacuzzi and the fireplace. In just a few days we saw Elks and deers right on the property! The house was impeccable, the chef kitchen and Miele coffee maker were above all expectations. We especially liked the super comfortable King bed and the adjacent Spa room with the very nice steam shower and the Whirlpool bath. It was a great way to relax and rest at this magical home and we really appreciated the host Chantal who went above our expectations to help us decide where to go in this short time. We started discovering the trails right off the driveway and also the 3 minute drive to shopping made this short vacation the perfect get away. We are already booking our Ski vacation with the kids and cannot wait to be back. Wonderful experience!
