I've been coming to the Rustler Lodge since I was a kid... I'm almost 60 now. The place has grown, but the service and hospitality have stayed OUTSTANDING for all these decades. I don't often write reviews, but the folks at the Rustler deserve some recognition for making my ski vacations nothing short of phenomenal over the years. Everyone, and I do mean everyone, at the Rustler gives great service. But beyond that they're just so kind and genuine with guest that the experience is like being part of a "club" or something. I love going there and hope to many times again!

Old school feel with luxury thrown in! The food is great, coffee is great, the people were so accommodating, and it's so beautiful there. I want to go back. The short trip from the airport is another bonus.

We love everything about Rustler Lodge. The owners and staff attention to every detail, dietary request and other preferences is quite special. The location is outstanding. True ski in and ski out. Love the rooms, the spa, heated pools, the dining( breakfast and lunch included), the bar with the most outstanding view of Alta including High Rustler and Eagles Nest, on site ski shop and each room has a ski locker on the lower level.
Room tip: Love the Alta mountain side views! Floors 6-8 are newest.There are dorm rooms if cost is a concern. Corner rooms are large and sunny.

We stayed as part of a large group, and I found it to be nothing short of fantastic service. The rooms were clean and sophisticated, and well maintained.
The food was absolutely fantastic, and their flexibility on every meal was nothing short of world class.
I would recommend this to anyone.
Room tip: 4th or 5th floor is best place for rooms to avoid elevator usage.

Is there such a thing as a "casual tuxedo"? The Rustler was just that, the staff, the views, the food, the location, and did I mention the views. It was just the venue to reconnect with old friends as we hunkered down and reawakened how we were connected in the first place!
