"For over 50 years, Robert Redford’s Sundance Resort in Utah has been a prominent incubator for achievements in cinema, culture, and conservation. The lodging and skiing are pretty swell too. Sundance Resort, a ski resort that’s focused on art, community, and the environment at least as much as it’s focused on skiing. The resort offers eight dining options, freestanding cabins with luxury linens and barbecue grills, and various amenities such as hot tubs and fireplaces. Accommodations range from the Standard to the larger Mountain Lofts and Mountain Homes, with names like Hawk’s Nest, Dream Catcher, and Owl Spirit. The Sundance Art Gallery at the resort features exhibits and workshops, and the Glassblower Studio showcases artists transforming discarded glass into art pieces. The resort has an authentically Western feel, with a restored 1890s bar relocated from Wyoming, and it still hosts screenings and kicks off the international film festival event with a Director’s Brunch." - Mitchell Friedman
