Daniels Summit Lodge

Amazing time snowmobiling. The service was so good the gentleman that helped is with the snowmobiles was so welcoming. I was with a group of 4 girls 2 guys (that’s how I roll). We had since a amazing time.
The navigation system they have with the mile markers is very helpful also. And most of all thank you to the lady that signed us up.
Thanks Daniels Summit Lodge

If you like snowmobiling this is the place to go if you don’t have a sled of your own. And if you do have one it still is.

Great place to relax with a fantastic view and setting.

I had been to Daniels Summit many times to snowmobile, but had never been there for anything else. I decided to take my husband there for our anniversary and I’m glad I did! The lodge was very clean and felt very cabin-​y. The staff was very nice and sent up a bottle of sparkling cider for our anniversary. We had the King Deluxe Room and it was very nice to be able to sit out on our balcony and enjoy some fresh air. I also loved having a fireplace, even if it was fake. I was hoping the staff would be able to provide some good hiking/​biking trails but they didn’t really know of any and didn’t have any good maps. Overall, it was a great stay and we would definitely stay there again.

Expensive. We recently purchased a «KSL Deal» two-​night stay with a half-​day Razor rental. The staff was friendly and the rooms were clean, but we felt we could easily get similar amenities and services for half the cost less than 20 miles away. Also, there is no included meal plan or vouchers for the on-​site restaurant. One meal for a family of 4 will easily run $ 40 (gratuity excluded.) Long story short, if you’re looking for exceptional value for your dollar, we recommend looking elsewhere.

Very quite and relaxing lodge. Has a «great cabin in the woods» type feel in the lobby and rooms. Their general store has so many fantastic handmade gifts for anyone that loves the rustic/​cabin décor. The restaurant is also great, service was fast and friendly plus price was reasonable. Would definitely recommend staying here if you are in the area.

Went Snowmobiling at Daniels Summit and wasn’t entirely thrilled with the outcome. It’ll cost you and arm and a leg ($ 255 for the whole day) and an additional charge for gas at the end of the trip, which was somewhat baffling and ticky-​tacky after already paying $ 255.
The people that rang us up were not very friendly or welcoming. However, the rest of the crew was very friendly. They could have done a better job briefing us before giving us the reigns.
All of that aside, the trails are absolutely beautiful and the snowmobiles seemed to be in good shape. It was a great time minus those aforementioned setbacks.

We had a wonderful experience with this company. Their customer service is outstanding and the staff was very friendly and helpful. We rented two snowmobiles and it was on a quiet day so we had the trails almost entirely to ourselves. The trail takes you to some breathtaking views and some fun open areas to play around in. It was so fun to be able to take the snowmobiles out on our own… without a guide. The machines were in great condition and the trails were pretty well marked. I would highly recommend this company for anyone looking for something different to do and a great way to see some incredible views. We can’t wait to come back!

We have never stayed at Daniels Summit Lodge, but we love snowmobiling there. It’s a great ride with beautiful views! We’ve been there several times and thoroughly enjoy it! It’s a great wind-​in-​your-​helmet experience. We always have such a blast! It’s a hidden gem and it’s as if you have the entire place to yourself! It’s pretty easy to drive by and keep going past it.
There are some spots — especially on the back side with the wide open fields, where you can go pretty fast. It’s got great whee-​age factor. We would stay out there all day if we could. We can’t wait to go back again. There is a great little country store on property. We love the restaurant there. We can always count on a yummy burger at the end of a ride!
We look forward to visiting there in the summer and going horseback riding.

6 people 4 snowmobiles unbelievable amount of fun and laughs! Great time great service. Will be back:)

We were the first ones in the door this morning. A great place to stop on your EPA trip. We ha a great breakfast. The ham is delightful. Biscuits and gravy are great too. Clean restrooms and friendly staff.

Awesome place ! Were been staying in hotels all over park city and totally randomly found this place, originally found the snowmobiling service and then decided to stay for a night. And it was awesome find!
We had such a nice room with fireplace and lovely view i simply loved it. Bed was the most comfortable ever, however dont recommend dining in the restaurant, unless u want a chicken soup anything else was just bad

I am reviewing the restaurant only. Bottom line, BEST PRIME RIB I have EVER had. Its severed only on weekends and that just fine because I would go crazy if I could just go when ever. The restaurant matches well with what you see on the out side. Nice log cabin kinda feel with a nice little bar that has a fire place. There is a stair case that takes you down stairs and you find a game room which is great for the kids. I took my of my old Vietnam buddies (No I was in Afghanistan not that old) and he goes every Friday night to Texas Road House for there prime rib, so to Daniels Summit we go and he was jaw dropped at what he got. If you dont mind the drive, and its really not that bad to head to the top of the mountain and when you want to see something that Daniels can only offer get there on a week end and get the prime rib.

Great experience. Great snow mobiling. Super friendly people. Get the chili bread bowl, strong to quite strong.

Winter wonderland just came back today. Had an amazing time snowmobiling 4 hours got to ride all four loops. I had a 2 seat with my daughter and my husband had a 1 seat. The view is amazing and the snowmobiles were and great condition. We stayed 2 nights loved the indoor swimming pool and Jacuzzi. The restaurant has amazing food and beer. The gift shop I over purchased as they have a lot of good stuff. The fire place overlooking the trees and snow was breath taking my family spent the evening playing checkers by the fire and eating pop corn. The customer service was top in my book Haley was mostly who helped us and gave us outstanding customer service she went as far as splitting wood and starting our fire nightly, removing the pool cover nightly and insuring our stay was at its best. My family will definitely be back again we are considering making this a family tradition we had so much fun.

Would have been 5 stars if I didn’t almost get killed (my fault for going off the trail to play a bit). Fantastic option if you need to get your snowmobilng fix.

snowmobiling at 10 000 ft with a lot of fresh snow is just amazing.
I am from Idaho and after trying snowmobiling here I was a bit afraid to do it at 8000ft+ in late December but they maintain a pretty great trail. It was well groomed but it does get a bit out of form half way through the day during holidays.
The rates are pretty much the same as what i have paid here in Idaho. only trouble i had was in finding the place which was not listed in my GPS but i think Google maps are pretty up to date, then again I drove to this place during a snow storm.
like I mentioned the trails are pretty well maintained and the mountain part are all pretty safe and people will find it very difficult to get lost. but the last third can be a bit confusing and being very flat tends to have others riding at very high speeds which could have landed me in a ditch.
I did not stay at the lodge and was there only during the day for snowmobiling. I would advice bringing your own winter sports wear as the ones they have can be a bit bulky. don’t forget to bring good face and chin cover as those can get really cost while riding at 45mph at sub zero temperatures. the food at the lodge was pretty great and not overpriced.
I am planning to visit this place during the summer for some ATV RZR action in 6 months

You can get to Daniels Summit on your own. The place we were staying had an agreement that provided for a free shuttle driver. He had a distinctive old-​fashioned mustache and was an absolute pleasure to chat with both to and from the Lodge.
The US Forest Service owns much of the land behind the lodge, and Daniels Summit pays an $ 18,000 special uses permit to groom and keep up the trails for those who want to snowmobile, atv, or horseback ride. Given that it was the end of the snow season (early March), we went snowmobiling this time out. What an amazing experience. Perhaps because it was so late in the season, and a Sunday at that, we faced no crowds whatsoever. I think we had those hundreds and hundreds of acres pretty much to ourselves and 40 other people who were out on machines that morning.
$ 129 ($ 10 cheaper than that if you can find an internet coupon they mentioned — that we didn’t have :-() for a 2-​hour guided snowmobile tour. You pay for gas and any damages.
Great time, incredible views. Don’t miss.

First of all, SNOWMOBILING ROCKS!!!
Now that we’ve got that out of the way, I will have to say that Daniels Summit provided a great first timers experience! They provide all your gear you might need: bibs, jackets, helmets, and shoes. (except for gloves, so make sure you bring some!)
They give you a brief rundown on how to use the machine and set you free on their 26 mile and 13 mile loops trails. The trails also have tons of hills and off roading space when you feel like getting a little crazy and heading off the beaten path. Which is crazy fun! So get your gumption up and get off the path! You’ll regret it if you stay on the trail the entire time. They also have a pretty flat area at the end if you want to see how fast you can go. My personal high was 55! I thought I was pretty cool, until I heard some folks have gone 75! Next time!
One of my favorite things were the built in hand warmers on the machine! Major plus! Make sure you bring a face mask for your cheeks. I had red cheeks and nose the remainder of the day and not from too much beer!
Their lodge seemed nice, but was very slow when we were there. I saw no guests the entire day. They also have a cute diner where we guzzled some Hot Coffee and I did eye a bar in back with beer on draft. Again, next time!
Not sure I would want to stay here since it is so far out and only provided snowmobiles and no skiing.
But for a fun day trip, Daniels is perfect!

I didn’t stay at the lodge here, I rented their snowmobiles.
A friend and I drove up from Salt Lake City. It was really cold that day (negative 10 degrees F, not counting wind chill), but that was the only day our schedule allowed. So on we go!
We rented a half day, and found that we pretty much got our fill. A full day wasn’t necessary. Sign the usual pile of disclaimers and liabilities. They do offer suits (boots, pants, jacket, helmet), which kept us toasty even during the bitter cold temperatures and wind chill. You need to bring your own gloves. I highly recommend a helmet sock that completely covers your head except for a round hole for your eyes/​nose/​mouth. Any bit of skin that is exposed can get chilled — I got windburn in the gap between my goggles and helmet chin guard.
We went mid-​week on a very cold day, it wasn’t crowded at all.
They provide a groomed trail that is about 26 miles long. In the 4 hours we had, we basically drove it twice. There also are open areas to play off of the trail. The trail takes you up to a peak with a great view, though wooded areas, and across large open areas.
The machines were easy to operate and felt relatively modern. My favorite feature was the heated handlebars which kept my fingers warm even though my gloves.
When you get done, you will need to pay for the gas that you use.
The staff were all very courteous. I would recommend that my friends go there.
If you’ve never been on a snowmobile, think ATV machine on snow.
