Situated adjacent to the picturesque white McPolin Barn, the Thaynes Canyon and Aspen Springs communities encompass the wooded hillsides and rolling meadows below Park City Mountain Resort and Iron Mountain.  These neighborhoods also offer easy access to all three local ski resorts as well as the Park City Municipal Golf Course and the extensive community trail system which converts to a well-groomed nordic trail system in the winter.  Some homes in Aspen Springs and Thaynes Canyon are zoned equestrian.

Both neighborhoods are close to Old Town, restaurants, retail shops, offices and the commercial center of Park City.  Many of the condominiums in the area were built in the 70's and 80's, but have been recently updated, featuring amenities comparable to those in newer projects throughout town. Developments include: Three Kings, Snowflower and Payday condominiums, as well as Silver Star at Park City, which hosts a blend of luxury single-family homes, condominiums and townhomes with direct ski access via the Silver Star lift at Park City Mountain Resort.
