When the hot season hits Utah's mountains, there will be plenty of great hotel deals at ski resorts and in mountain towns like Park City and Brian Head. These destinations will also be offering activities ranging from concerts to lift-served mountain biking and fine dining. Summer is the off-season for resort hotels in the region that are built to handle the winter crowds.

These resorts provide a wonderful center for recreation and a haven from the desert heat during the summer months. More of them are adding family activities and slashing prices as well. For example, hotel rooms in the mountain town of Park City, Utah can cost 33 to 50% less during summer, with some even better deals available to diligent shoppers. All of the local shops and restaurants remain open during the summer, and many offer outdoor dining and special theme nights.
