A Valley for All Seasons Since 1886
Over the past four years, Homestead has been reimagined into a one-of-a-kind, four-season retreat, where elevated accommodations, inspiring gathering spaces, and new culinary and wellness experiences come together. Every detail has been designed with intention, honoring the land’s legacy while embracing what’s next. And this is only the beginning. With more on the horizon, Homestead is proud to share its progress.
From Schneitter’s Hotel to Homestead
In 1863, Swiss immigrants Maria and Simon Schneitter settled in Midway, Utah, drawn by verdant valleys and snow-capped mountains reminiscent of home. As they worked the land, Simon Schneitter discovered what would become the foundation of Homestead’s identity: a naturally heated, mineral-rich geothermal spring emerging from the earth on his property.
This discovery, now known as The Crater, shaped the earliest beginnings of Homestead as a place of hospitality. renewal, and relief, where weary miners and travelers could bathe and restore their bodies.
Homestead has evolved from a pioneering Swiss farmstead into a storied mountain retreat that invites today’s explorers to connect with the same boundless spirit of adventure and natural wonder.

Originally built in the 1800s to store dairy on the Schneitter farm, Milk House was beautifully restored as an on-property coffee house and ice cream parlor.

At over 10,000 years old, The Crater is the oldest and most iconic symbol of Homestead’s pioneering spirit and legacy. This 400-foot-wide, 55-foot-high beehive-shaped limestone geothermal dome was a gathering place for 19th-century settlers, ultimately transforming the land into the valley’s first resort. With a natural temperature of 90º to 96°F, it is the only warm-water scuba diving destination in the continental U.S., and its otherworldly atmosphere and medicinal waters make it an ideal location for a soothing swim or a paddleboard yoga session.

Nestled beside our luxury pool oasis and near the turn between the golf course’s 9th and 10th holes, 1886 Grill is a lively bar and grill serving up smoky barbecue, wood-fired fare, craft beer, and a full-service bar.
