This week, Flagstaff Lodgekeeper, Ryan Skowron, gives us the inside scoop on this slope-side property.

What makes your property unique? 

The area referred to as Empire Pass at Deer Valley is considered “Upper Deer Valley”. The various lodges, all nestled in the mountains in a quiet, out-of-the-way, neighborhood, are great environments for families. The smaller TEAM at Empire Pass offers a “boutique operation”, each member wearing many hats to insure the seamless, vacation of a lifetime. The Dial-A-Ride program is a complimentary shuttle service that is only offered to guests and owners in Empire Pass and services the immediate Park City activities.

What is your favorite thing about your property?

Each lodge in Empire Pass at Deer Valley offers stunning views!  The atmosphere is subtle sophistication and the decor is top of the line. The community at Flagstaff Lodge frequently enjoys potluck events accompanied by live entertainment.

What is a tip you have for a first time guest staying at your property?

The concierges on the TEAM generally recommend grocery delivery prior to arrival, since there are not any grocery stores readily available. Due to the limited number of restaurants in the immediate area, we frequently recommend Fireside Dining and the restaurants at the Montage. The Dial-A-Ride program is a very unique amenity which is always noteworthy.
