Know Your Neighborhoods: Willow Creek 

PARK CITY, Utah — Nestled against the majestic Wasatch Mountains, Willow Creek is a testament to thoughtful community design and mountain living. Established in 2001, this prestigious neighborhood quickly became one of Park City’s most sought-after addresses, where luxury meets natural beauty in perfect harmony.

As you wind through the neighborhood’s three main arteries—Pace Drive, Last Stand Drive, and Cottonwood Lane—you’ll find yourself enchanted by the architectural masterpieces that define Willow Creek. Each of the 72 homes tells its own story of contemporary mountain design, where expansive windows frame breathtaking views of the Canyons Village to the west. These grand residences, ranging from 3,000 to 5,500 square feet, rest comfortably on generous half-acre lots, with some exclusive properties extending to two acres. The contemporary mountain aesthetic of brick, wood, glass, and stone creates homes that feel both luxurious and perfectly at home in their natural setting. 

The true heart of Willow Creek lies in its seamless integration with the natural landscape. A charming walking trail weaves through the community, inviting residents to step out of their front doors and into adventure. The neighborhood’s crowning jewel, Willow Creek Park, spans 17 acres at the eastern edge, offering an impressive array of recreational facilities. The park boasts three playing fields, four fenced tennis/pickleball courts, a basketball court, and two volleyball courts—all available on a first-come, first-served basis. Four welcoming pavilions dot the landscape, with three available for community events and private gatherings. Families particularly love the two age-appropriate playgrounds, while fitness enthusiasts can enjoy the five-station exercise par course along the park’s paved perimeter trail. The park even caters to four-legged residents with the Willow Creek Dog Park, which features a seasonal pond that transforms into an ice skating rink during winter.

The park feels boundless as it merges with 66 acres of pristine open space, creating a natural sanctuary at the neighborhood’s eastern edge. What sets Willow Creek apart is its abundance of outdoor activities. Residents can immediately access mountain biking trails, hiking paths, and fishing spots—an outdoor enthusiast’s paradise.

One of Willow Creek’s unique charms is its proximity to Copper Moose Farm, where residents can practically source fresh, organic produce from their backyard. The neighborhood’s location strikes an ideal balance: It is close enough to Park City, Kimball Junction, and Interstate 80 for convenience yet thoughtfully removed from the hustle of main traffic corridors.

There are just two homes available in this sought-after neighborhood. Contact us for current listings and viewing opportunities. Willow Creek has become more than just a neighborhood—it’s become a mountain paradise for those fortunate enough to call it home.
