When winter storms trap you indoors, there’s nowhere on Earth you’d rather be than Mountainhead — the iconic Deer Valley estate featured in HBO’s Mountainhead. From its 21,000-square-foot layout to its private ski funicular, this isn’t just a luxury home rental — it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience available exclusively through Luxe Haus.
Designed for grandeur, built for the elements, and now one of the most searched-for filming locations in Utah, Mountainhead is redefining the idea of being “snowed in.”
A Luxury Vacation Rental Designed for Titans
Perched at the highest point in Deer Valley, Mountainhead is more than just a home — it’s a mountain-top sanctuary carved into the landscape. Built over seven years with hand-selected local materials and bespoke finishes, the estate was conceived as a private resort for someone at the top of their game.
The home’s spiral steel staircase, which spans all seven levels, anchors the design like a sculpture. In fact, it took a team of two dozen craftsmen years to construct. That craftsmanship continues in every space: expansive glass curtain walls, reclaimed hardwoods that age naturally, and stone chosen for its chameleon-like hues of blue, rust, and green.
From the moment you enter, you know this is not an ordinary luxury rental. It’s a property that’s been a feature in People, Town & Country, Robb Report, and now stars in a major HBO film. And yet, through Luxe Haus, it’s available for private bookings year-round.

Why Mountainhead Is the Best Place to Be Snowed In
Many people might dread a severe snowstorm—but at Mountainhead, guests embrace it. Why? Because the amenities make going outside optional:
- A private glass-walled funicular to Deer Valley Resort
- Two-lane bowling alley and indoor NBA-regulation basketball court
- Infinity pool that follows the natural ridgeline
- Home theater, climbing wall, and full chef’s kitchen
- Seven bedrooms and 16 bathrooms — all designed for total comfort
Whether you’re warming up by one of the many fireplaces or watching fresh powder fall through 20-foot glass walls, you’ll feel like you’re in your own snow globe. Except with better wine and your own concierge.
Booked by Celebrities, Now Available Through Luxe Haus
It’s no accident that HBO chose Mountainhead as the setting for a satire on tech billionaires. The home embodies the kind of excess, elegance, and isolation that captures the imagination. Yet behind the scenes, it’s Luxe Haus that makes the experience seamless for guests.
Luxe Haus is the exclusive manager of this Deer Valley luxury vacation rental, known for its high-touch hospitality and curated design-forward homes. Every booking comes with:
- Customized concierge service
- Pre-arrival planning and provisioning
- Private chefs, wellness services, and adventure guides
- Total discretion and privacy

Built to Be Legendary — Even in a Blizzard
Architect Michael Upwall designed Mountainhead to be in harmony with the surrounding Wasatch Mountains. The terraced lot mirrors the natural rise of the mountain. Every window is perfect for sightlines to Bald Eagle Mountain and Jordanelle Reservoir. The exterior blends stone, wood, and steel with a philosophy that natural aging is part of the home’s beauty.
You may never want to leave — and in winter, you might not have to.
This estate is more than a beautiful filming location — it’s one of the most architecturally significant private homes in the Rockies. And thanks to Luxe Haus, it’s no longer just for celebrities or billionaires. It’s now your winter escape.
Experience the Mountainhead Movie Home — Without the Drama
HBO’s Mountainhead may be a dark satire about isolation and ego, but your stay doesn’t have to be. Luxe Haus ensures that every guest enjoys elevated comfort, unmatched privacy, and curated adventure — without the film-worthy stress.

A Multigenerational Family Reunion That Redefines Togetherness

With seven spacious bedrooms, multiple common areas, and an elevator-accessible multi-level layout, everyone from toddlers to grandparents will feel comfortable and inspired.

A Girl-Powered Getaway Like No Other
The movie Mountainhead may have centered around a bro-heavy billionaire hangout — but this house is made for the girls. Imagine a next-level girls’ escape complete with fireside rosé, spa treatments, in-home yoga, and après-ski by your own glass-walled infinity pool.
Wake up to guided meditations and mountain air. Spend the day skiing or shopping Park City’s boutiques. Then return for a chef-prepared dinner and a cozy movie night in your private theater (with wine, obviously).
Whether it’s a birthday bash, reunion, or just an excuse to reconnect, this is your invitation to flip the script — all hosted by Luxe Haus, curators of luxury with personality.

A Corporate Retreat That Actually Inspires
Tired of sterile hotel ballrooms and cookie-cutter off-sites? Mountainhead is a fully immersive venue for executive retreats, founder summits, and high-performing teams who think differently.
The home’s layout supports both large gatherings and intimate breakouts. Think:
- Strategy sessions by the fire
- Brainstorms on the terrace
- Wellness programming in the theater
- Private chef meals to keep focus (and morale) high
Need space for meditation, group reflection, or playful competition? There’s room for all of it — including a two-lane bowling alley, indoor climbing wall, basketball court, and of course, Deer Valley’s slopes just a private funicular ride away. Luxe Haus even supports pre-arrival planning for agendas, staffing, and scheduling.

Turn Your Home into a High-Performing Luxury Rental with Luxe Haus
A luxury vacation home is more than just a property—it’s an investment. With Luxe Haus’ expert management, you can enjoy higher rental income, worry-free ownership, and a best-in-class guest experience.
Owning a luxury vacation rental in Park City or Deer Valley presents a promising opportunity, but managing a high-end property requires more than just listing it online. While DIY hosting might seem appealing, the reality is that true luxury hospitality demands professional management to maximize revenue, protect your investment, and deliver five-star experiences. Here’s why partnering with a luxury property management company like Luxe Haus far outweighs the DIY approach.
-
Guest Expectations: Five-Star Service vs. Basic Hosting
Luxury travelers expect seamless service, personalized experiences, and hotel-level hospitality. Professional luxury property management ensures:
- 24/7 concierge support and guest assistance
- Private chef services, in-home spa treatments, and customized experiences
- Daily housekeeping and meticulous property upkeep
- Effortless check-in and departure experiences
DIY hosts often struggle to meet these high expectations, leading to lower guest satisfaction and fewer repeat bookings.
-
Revenue Optimization & Pricing Strategies
Professional property managers use dynamic pricing strategies based on market trends, demand forecasting, and competitive analysis to maximize occupancy and revenue. Luxe Haus ensures premium rates while maintaining exclusivity. DIY hosts often rely on guesswork, potentially leaving money on the table.
Professional luxury home management companies invest in impressive marketing, ensuring properties reach the right guests. Luxe Haus provides:
- Professional photography & videography
- Targeted advertising & exposure in elite travel networks
- Exclusive partnerships with high-net-worth travel agencies
DIY listings on platforms like Airbnb and VRBO rarely attract the ultra-luxury clientele willing to pay premium rates.
-
Property Maintenance & Risk Management
Maintaining a luxury home requires more than occasional cleanings. Luxe Haus’s professional property management services provides:
- Routine property inspections & preventative maintenance
- Vendor coordination for repairs & emergency services
- Security & guest vetting to ensure only qualified renters
DIY hosts often lack the resources to provide this level of upkeep, putting their investment at risk.
Reduced risk and increased peace of mind is a key benefit of choosing the right professional property manager
-
Time & Stress: Effortless Ownership vs. Full-Time Job
Managing a luxury home or vacation rental is a 24/7 responsibility. Homeowners who attempt DIY hosting often find themselves overwhelmed by guest requests, unexpected issues, and the demands of running a hospitality business. Luxe Haus eliminates this stress, allowing owners to enjoy passive income without the pain of daily operations.

Partnering with Luxe Haus means turning your vacation home into a high-performing luxury retreat while maintaining complete peace of mind. Our white-glove management approach ensures great service, maximized revenue, and an elevated guest experience that keeps travelers coming back.

Thanksgiving in Park City, Utah, offers a perfect mix of holiday cheer, outdoor adventure, luxury, and relaxation. Nestled in the Wasatch Mountains, Park City is renowned for its world-class skiing, exclusive accommodations, and vibrant local culture. Whether you’re a visitor or a resident, spending Thanksgiving here is a unique experience filled with seasonal traditions and activities. From early ski season fun to cozy holiday meals, there’s something for everyone.
Hit the Slopes Early
One of the best things about spending Thanksgiving in Park City is the chance to kick off ski season early. By late November, Park City Mountain Resort typically opens its slopes to skiers and snowboarders, weather permitting. With fresh snow, fewer crowds, and stunning views, it’s a prime time to enjoy Utah’s famous powder. Whether you’re a seasoned skier or trying it for the first time, both resorts offer lessons, rentals, and plenty of trails for all skill levels. Be sure to bundle up and take advantage of the early-season excitement. Bonus, many of our homes offer ski access right outside their doors, like Luxe Haus’s very own luxurious Snow Dance in The Colony.
Thanksgiving Day Feast
No Thanksgiving is complete without a delicious holiday meal, and Park City has a variety of options for a festive feast. Many of the town’s finest restaurants offer special Thanksgiving menus, combining traditional favorites like turkey and stuffing with gourmet twists. Some popular spots include Powder at The Waldorf Astoria, Riverhorse on Main, and a new favorite, Tilly’s. When staying in one of our luxury vacation homes, consider hiring a private chef or ordering a catered Thanksgiving meal to enjoy in the comfort of your private chalet. Local chefs often prepare mouthwatering meals, including dishes like herb-crusted turkey, truffle mashed potatoes, and over-the-top desserts.
Outdoor Adventures Beyond Skiing
If you’re looking for more than just skiing, Park City’s winter landscape offers plenty of outdoor adventures. Try snowshoeing through the scenic mountain trails, where you can enjoy peaceful walks surrounded by snow-covered trees. Swaner Preserve and EcoCenter offers guided snowshoe tours for all ages and skill levels. For a family-friendly experience, consider a sleigh ride through the snow with Rocky Mountain Outfitters. You’ll glide through the stunning winter landscape, bundled up in blankets while taking in the mountain views. It’s a magical way to spend an afternoon or evening.
Shopping and Holiday Festivities
Thanksgiving in Park City also marks the beginning of the holiday season, and the town lights up with festive decorations and local events. Historic Main Street is known for its charming boutiques and unique shops, making it the perfect place for holiday shopping. From artisanal crafts to high-end fashion, you’ll find something special for everyone on your list. Additionally, Park City’s galleries host special events and exhibitions during the holiday season, giving visitors a chance to explore the local art scene.
If you’re in town for Black Friday, don’t miss the deals at Tanger Outlets, just a short drive from downtown. With over 65 designer and brand-name stores, it’s a great spot to score some holiday deals while enjoying the crisp mountain air.
Relax and Rejuvenate
After a day of outdoor activities or shopping, unwind in one of Park City’s luxury spas or your vacation rental’s hot tub. The Spa at Stein Eriksen Lodge and Remède Spa at the St. Regis Deer Valley offer luxurious treatments like hot stone massages and facials, perfect for de-stressing during the holiday weekend. Our concierge team can also arrange for in-home spa services. There’s nothing more indulgent than relishing in 5-star pampering without even leaving your vacation home.
Park City’s Famous Turkey Trot
Kick off your Thanksgiving Day with the Park City Turkey Trot, a fun 5K race that’s perfect for the whole family. It’s a great way to get some exercise before indulging in your Thanksgiving meal, and it benefits local charities. Whether you run, jog, or walk, it’s a festive way to start the day surrounded by fellow participants and the beauty of Park City’s trails.
Thanksgiving in Park City is a blend of adventure, relaxation, and holiday warmth. From hitting the slopes to enjoying a gourmet meal, there’s no shortage of things to do. Whether you’re visiting for the first time or returning, the town’s charm and holiday spirit make it an unforgettable Thanksgiving destination.
