Silver Fork Lodge & Restaurant

I’ll keep it short, haddock recommended by server….awful. House meatloaf….awful. $100 meal for 2, no appetizers, no dinner rolls. Very disappointed. Nothing left to say other than we will not be back. On a positive note the view was very nice.

Indifferent server (Jaileen?) is the cause of a very much anticipated and very mediocre restaurant breakfast experience. I was the only customer and had to request coffee twice, answer for the second time “no egg” when she asked again what type of egg I wanted and came back again because she forgot my toast order. While standing near me with a colleague she complained out loud about her jobs that she didn’t like etc. ….in the dining room! Absolutely clueless but it clarified for me why there was no one in the restaurant at 10:15 am. Right people, right seats? Not this time!

I stayed at the Silver Fork Lodge for 4 nights on my own during the record-breaking winter of February, 2023. I was delighted by my time here and would recommend it strongly. To be fair the lodge lives up to the descriptor on its own matchbooks as "rustic," this is not the place for the Park City crowd. But, for anyone who values authenticity and character in a ski lodge the Silver Fork can't be beat. I relished the two meals a day at the Silver Fork as the quality was high and the portions meant for folks spending a big day outside. The bar at the Silver Fork is an all time classic. One word of caution: I relied on the Utah Ski Bus service to ferry my back and forth to Solitude, which is only a few miles up the mountain from the lodge, and found the service regrettably unreliable. As of my time there were far too few busses in service - apparently due to a lack of drivers resulting from poor pay and quality of life - and so whenever the snow conditions drew crowds to go skiing the busses were full to capacity and hours late. Local sentiment seemed to hold that when they worked well the busses could be a very helpful option; let's hope the planning function resolves the limited capacity.

Could not be more pleased with my GF's and my stay at the Silver Fork Lodge. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and the in-house restaurant has the best damn pancakes on this side of the Mississippi. Rooms are full of rustic charm, and the wifi is strong as necessary. Location is perfect for any and all excursions in Little Cottonwood Canyon and it's a thrilling 30 min drive to Park City (via the open pass in summertime). Will absolutely be back for ski season this winter. Looks like they do weddings on site as well, and I can't imaging a cuter place to celebrate a special occasion. Will absolutely be recommending to friends for years to come!

I work for a couple of large hotel brands so I normally wouldn’t pick this location first, but I’m glad we did. We couldn’t ask for more in a location to the resorts and setting. Alex was so welcoming when I popped in to see if we could check in a day early. He went above and beyond in helping us get into rooms early. Thank you!! Plenty of space and plenty of parking. The showers were nice and hot with plenty of pressure. The restaurant did close early as night skiing was over for the season and seems everyone adjusts hours accordingly. Not a big deal at all as we knew this and planned for it. Just bummed we missed it…breakfast was outstanding every morning so I’m sure dinner would be too! Thanks to everyone for a great stay!

I was excited to stay at the Silver Fork Lodge, it was very close to ski resorts and was sold on its rustic look. Boy was I fooled. First, let me say this if for the lodge only, the restaurant was fine and food was good. I now know why they dont put many pictures on on the website of the rooms. I stayed in the family suite, upon checking it, I was immediately taken aback by the number of space heaters in the room. I then knew why, the main heat in the bunk bed room did not work at all. The heater in the main room, worked, but looked extremely old and the thermostat fell apart when adjusting the heat. Next on the list was the shower curtain, upon opening it, the rod fell completely off the wall and I was unable to repair myself. Lastly the noise, this place is right on the road and every car that comes by sounds like its in your room. This place is in serious need of renovations, specifically because I think its a major fire hazard waiting to happen. I booked 4 nights. and left after 1, It was that bad. Upon my complaints, I was asked if it was the no TV's that was my issue, no it was not, I was aware of that going in to it. Also no mini fridge in the rooms, even though that was not a major issue. I didn't even fight the refund as their policy is clear, although I feel like I should have been offered a partial. I hope this review can help others.
