Children are welcome. The gardens, surrounded by quaking aspen and blue spruce, are vibrant with wild columbine, lupine, wild geraniums, meadow rue and coreopsis in summer. The interior is a delightful step back in time. Five well-appointed rooms, named for wildflowers, have private baths. Your hosts serve a gourmet breakfast on the deck in summer and in the dining room in winter.
Guests can relax in the reading room or browse in the gift shop.
The art gallery features works by Jeri Parker, a well-known local artist who, along with Cill Sparks, owns Wildflowers. Ski packages are available. The home is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Not only is this one of Salt Lake's newest bed and breakfasts, it is unlike any hospitality offering in the Valley. The 13 rooms are decked out with masculine furnishings resembling a fine men's club.
