Bluebird Chalet is a spacious three-level Swiss-style ski chalet nestled in the woods of beautiful Bryce Resort. It has an open floor plan with expanses of glass that frame the private view of the surrounding trees and mountains. Multiple decks, patios and a porch make enjoying this wooded oasis a pleasure in any weather.

It is possible to ski or bike down to the lodge, then take the lift to ski or bike home!
The many recent renovations to the generous 3,300+ sq/ft 4-bedroom, 4.5 bath house include a beautiful new outdoor fire pit area, plus a sauna and oversized hot tub. Three separate driveways easily accommodate up to six vehicles. Bluebird Chalet comfortably accommodates up to 10 people.
