Yellow Slicker Condominiums

Yellow Slicker Condominium Association is located in beautiful Park City, Utah.

This association consists of two buildings with four condominiums in each building.  Common areas include a shared hot tub, laundry room, bike room and covered carport. The condo complex is in an ideal location for any time of the year. It sits high above Old Town with gorgeous views.

The eight Yellow Slicker condos are largely owner-occupied and the association is self-managed by a condo association board.

The condo's location puts residents within easy reach of all of the winter sporting activities plus the restaurants and galleries on Main Street. You can walk to the Town Lift, just two blocks away, and ski out on the Town runs, right to our street in front of the condo. You can walk to Main Street where there are many world-class restaurants and galleries. You can hop on a bus to Deer Valley or the Canyons Resorts, three resorts in one Olympic town.

Or if you prefer spring, fall, or summer, there is no place more lovely for a getaway. Golfing, mountain biking, hiking, are all at our doorstep. There are loads of activities for kids plus music and art festivals all summer long, including the Utah Symphony performances at the outdoor Deer Valley amphitheater.

Spring Creek Association

The Spring Creek Associationis a private property owners association with 5,420 lots residential lots, commercial lots, and numerous recreational amenities.

It covers nearly 15,000 acres and is located near the base of the Ruby Mountains. In addition to the above amenities, the Association has a campground, sports complex, golf clubhouse, and several parks. Other facilities include a maintenance yard, the administration building, and 136 miles of privately owned and maintained roads. The Association is not gated, so all roads are open to the public. Consequently, the Association has entered into an agreement with the County of Elko under which it receives annual grants to assist in road maintenance activities. The public access to the roads and major facilities maintained by the Association allowed it to qualify for tax exempt status under the Internal Revenue Code, so it pays no taxes on interest earnings from its reserve fund. Outdoor Recreation and Spring Creek have become synonymous. Lamoille Canyon, Southfork Reservoir State Park, and the Ruby Lake National Wildlife Refuge are all within a short drive.
