Wonderful Host and Property ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍
This property is in a great neighborhood🏠. Close to lots of places to explore including parks and restaurants 🍽. Paige our host should get ten stars. The backyard is beautifully maintained, enjoyable to sit and work outside on a laptop for us telecommuters. The downstairs suite offered a great place to relax, watch tv and unwind.

Great Location
Wonderful stay in SLC! This is a great, quiet road (minus the dogs next door). Our children enjoyed walking the sidewalks in the morning and the garden. Paige was extremely polite, we didn’t really need anything but she made us feel welcome. We will be using this property again whenever we visit!

About the host

Hosted by Paige Paulsen

Host profile image
Living in Utah is perfect for me because my family is here and I love the outdoors. I bike and play tennis in the summers, cross-country ski in the winter and hike and play pickle ball all year long.

I am licensed as a CPA and an accounting professor at Salt Lake Community College. I have a small business called Holistic Accounting where I not only do accounting for individuals and small businesses but I work with people and their money issues.

Why they chose this property

I bought this house specifically to rent out as a vacation property. This is the only house I have so I've made sure it's nice. I have enjoyed using my creative energy in decorating it. I have poured my love and nurturing into caring for this home and preparing it for each guest. This is the kind of house I would like to stay in if I were visiting Salt Lake. I like the location of this home because it provides quick access to pretty much everything I am interested in doing.

What makes this property unique

Located near downtown, the famous Sugarhouse Shopping District, Liberty Park, a Dog Park, Trolley Square, the 7th East thoroughfare, restaurants, Costco, yoga studio, walking paths and many more places of interest.
