Discerning buyers in Park City are often seeking several core features in a home: luxurious details, proximity to amenities, and privacy are just a few. In Park City, you can find all this and more in our incredible gated communities. 

In an area as luxurious and exclusive as Park City, it’s sometimes difficult to decide on what’s “best.” As proud residents, we can be a bit biased, and the idea of something being “the best” is hugely subjective. When it comes to gated communities in Park City, it can be even more challenging to round up the best of the best, since each community has its own unique offerings and value. 

Whether you’re looking for exclusive ski access, year-round fun, or a luxurious private getaway, there is a Park City gated community for you. 

Here are our top picks for some of the best gated communities in Park City.
