Absolute gem!

Can’t say enough great things about The Wright Retreat! Communication was great; home was spotless; plenty of dishes and utensils, pots and pans; dish soap; towels; shampoo, conditioner, and body wash; perfect location; plenty of bedding; pack and play; extra mattress; two blow up mattresses; high chair. We’ll definitely look to stay here first anytime we’re in the area and cannot recommend it more!

Sisters Weekend

The property was perfect for the 4 of us. We had a couple of requests and Dessa was great at responding. We didn't make it out to the hot tub, but the sauna was a wonderful way to end each day. We didn't have any problems finding the property and the check in instructions were spot on. I would definitely recommend this property to anybody looking to be in that part of Utah. It was actually a pretty easy drive to Salt Lake City as well.

Fantastic place to explore Ogden!

The Wright Retreat was everything you want in a VRBO. Clean, quiet, modern, stocked, plus an awesome sauna and hot tub exclusively for the guests! The beds are extremely comfortable, the rooms are dark, kitchen has everything you need plus a private grill out back. The hosts were also extremely responsive while still giving us our space. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Wrights!

Spotless, very comfortable home

Our family absolutely enjoyed our stay at the Wright Retreat. Most notable was how clean it was, how comfortable the beds were and how well equipped the kitchen was with cups, dinnerware, pots and pans. The washer and dryer were very useful, as was the dishwasher. Dessa was a great host, very quick to respond to messages. We look forward to staying here again!

Short Getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The rental was immaculate, roomy, well stocked. The hot tub with mountain views were a great place to wind down after a day of exploring. Nicely located about 45 minutes from Salt Lake City, there was plenty to do as outdoor enthusiasts. Hiking in Ogden Canyon was incredible. Birdwatching throughout the region was exceptional. Perhaps the best part was a visit to Antelope Island and communing with the Bison herds. Great food throughout. Must try the Utah Scone and honey butter at Sill's Cafe in Layton (about 20 minute drive). The hosts were incredibly responsive and helpful. Loved meeting Rocco the Frenchie. The only drawback was that the trip ended to soon.

Beyond Expectations

While The Wright Retreat has amazing reviews, I'm the "I'll believe it when I see it" type. Well I saw it and the property lives up to the hype. There is one major problem though: it has boosted our expectations for future stays at other properties.

Luxury living and gourmet kitchen!

The Farr West property was exactly as described online. Cozy, clean, and extremely well appointed, this renovated basement has all of the amenities you could ever need! The kitchen had everything you could ask for and more, the hot tub and sauna were above and beyond, and the living room was comfortable and relaxing with the electric fireplace. It was only about a 35 minute drive to Powder Mountain for downhill skiing, and about the same to North Fork Park for cross-country skiing. We would stay here again without hesitation!

Nicest VRBO we've stayed in

We loved this place so much. First off, I did the payment wrong, and the owner was so helpful and kind. We got to the rental and it was so easy to figure out everything. The comfort level was top of the line. I even took some photos so I can try to replicate some of the decor at my home. Truly, I'd recommend this to anyone. We drove to Powder Mountain daily and it was about 40 minutes due to heavy snowfall.

Peaceful setting for Sisters Weekend

My 3 sisters and I stayed here for 3 nights. We utilized the hot tub and sauna, as well as the crock pot and blender in the very well-stocked kitchen. The beds were comfortable, the livingroom fit all four of us on the couches to watch a movie, the dining table was big enough to do our crafts at, and the bedroom hall had a darling desk and mirror that was a perfect staging area for doing make-up and hair for our one night out on the town. We reached out to the hosts once and had a reply within 10 minutes. We also felt very safe in the neighborhood and felt in the middle of the country, though stores were only a few minutes away.

lovely accommodations

We really did enjoy the place. I guess the only negative star for me was only because this is in the basement of a home. I thought we were staying at a stand alone place. My mistake. The owners were very accommodating as we were there to deal with a tough situation over the christmas holiday and needed a quiet space and that was a bit tough with a family having a fun time (as they absolutely should have been doing!) upstairs. We asked to stay an extra day before we knew it was a basement apartment, and I wish the homeowner would have at least told us they were having a holiday gathering or we would have stayed somewhere else. They were more than willing to shut the party down at a reasonable hour, which I really appreciated. Just be aware, you can hear everyone moving around above you. If you need a quiet space this is not it. But.... it was a lovely place. They have done a great job. They seem like wonderful people.
