The Goldminer's Daughter Lodge is located in Alta Utah, in the Wasatch-Cache National Forest. Just 25 miles from Salt Lake City and 45 minutes from the Salt Lake International airport, the Goldminer's Daughter Lodge gives exceptional access to Utah's "greatest snow on earth".

The Goldminer's Daughter Lodge is at the top of Little Cottonwood Canyon at the base of the Alta Ski Area just steps from the Collins Quad and Wildcat Lifts.
