Terina Ria

This is your sign to take a staycation, and why not stay in Midway? The small town, situated in the Heber Valley, is known as Utah’s “Little Switzerland.” It’s charming, only about an hour away, and they’ve got surprisingly good pizza.

🏨 Where To Stay

Homestead Resort

They recently renovated so the rooms look nice and new. Make sure to try the ice cream at The Milk House. And of course, visit the famous Homestead Crater where you can soak or scuba in the hot spring. Fun fact: It’s the only warm water scuba certification destination in the continental U.S.

Invited Inn Bed & Breakfast

This quaint and cozy bed and breakfast will make you feel like you’re in a Hallmark movie. If the weather’s warm enough, play some croquet in the backyard or stay inside for a round of checkers.

🧀 Where To Shop

Haven House Co.

This place has cute gifts and homeware. Plus, a wall of ribbons for all your hobbying needs.

Heber Valley Milk & Artisan Cheese

Dairy freaks, unite! Here you can tour the dairy farm, schedule a cheese tasting, or attend a mozzarella-making class.

🍕 Where To Eat

The Pizza Yard

The Pizza Yard opened a brick-and-mortar store last year. They’ve got incredible pizzas with high-quality ingredients and great merch, too.

Hidden Peak Provisions

A classic deli with vegan and vegetarian options. Heads up, they’re closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
