Where to Buy a Vacation Rental in Utah This Year
These spots are heating up—and not just because it’s summer.
If you’ve been thinking about buying a vacation rental in Utah, 2025 is shaping up to be a prime year to do it. From mountain escapes to red rock retreats, Utah’s diverse landscape offers year-round appeal—and some serious rental income potential.
Here are the hottest spots to invest this year:

Park City
High demand. High nightly rates. High ROI. Park City continues to dominate thanks to world-class skiing, Sundance Film Festival traffic, and year-round adventure. It’s a luxury market, but worth every penny.
Moab
Think national parks, epic hikes, and serious outdoor tourism. Moab sees strong rental demand spring through fall—making it a top pick for adventure-loving investors in 2025.
St. George
Warm-weather vibes meet natural beauty. With Zion National Park nearby and a steady influx of snowbirds and nature lovers, St. George is a year-round rental hotspot in southern Utah.
Salt Lake City
SLC is Utah’s best-kept vacation rental secret. Close to ski resorts, loaded with urban charm, and backed by solid year-round events, this city offers both strong occupancy and great growth potential.
Bear Lake
Nicknamed “The Caribbean of the Rockies,” Bear Lake is a summer-only rental dream. Beachfront cabins and lake-view properties stay packed during peak season, and the views alone make it worth the investment.
