Hideout is a small, elevated town overlooking Jordanelle Reservoir, positioned between Park City and Heber Valley. Known for its panoramic lake and mountain views, low density, and newer construction, Hideout has become one of the most compelling alternatives to Park City proper for buyers seeking scenery, modern homes, and long-term appreciation potential.
In 2025, Hideout continued to attract strong buyer interest due to its proximity to Deer Valley East Village, limited housing supply, and town-controlled growth.
