Township with Olympic level facilities
The 2002 Winter Olympics left a lasting impact on the Salt Lake Valley. And for the Kearns metro township, the global sporting event left behind a little gift: The Utah Olympic Oval. The 5-acre venue was built for competitive indoor speed-skating events. While competitions still take place there, the Oval has also become a popular multi-use facility and recreational destination. “There’s not a ton of restaurants in Kearns property, but one of the things people like about the area is that when the Olympics came in 2002, they built the Olympic Oval there, where they did all the skating and those events. You can still go and utilize the Oval to go skate in,” says Eric Hawker, a regional broker with Real Broker LLC and who has made five sales in Kearns. The township, which formally became one in the 2010s, is also seen as a more affordable alternative to at least a few other parts of the greater Salt Lake City area. The median housing price here is nearly $417,000, which is lower than in a few neighboring places like Taylorsville and West Jordan.
The homes in Kearns can be sure to see a little snow during the winter.
Ramblers, multi-level homes and rentals
Although it’s got some new stock, many homes here were built between the mid-20th century and the early 2000s. The common style here is the ranch-style house, or rambler as many in the Salt Lake Valley typically call it. There are a number of two-story homes with similar touches, including split-levels. Price points for many homes here can go from just under $400,000 to around $490,000, with the smaller ramblers found on the lower end of that range. Four-bedroom townhouses can also go for around $470,000.
The Utah Olympic Oval and Oquirrh Park
The Oval is one of several sports facilities in Oquirrh Park, located right along Cougar Lane. Home to over 100 speed skating records, the multi-use facility has become a popular destination for those interested in indoor winter sports. Members can go to the facility for activities like ice skating, hockey and even curling lessons. Among other amenities, the venue has the state’s only 400-meter speed skating oval and two international size ice sheets. Those looking to stay fit, but not necessarily get on the ice, can make use of the indoor running track. But the Oval isn’t the only place for sports at Oquirrh Park as it has other sports facilities like multiple baseball fields and an Olympic-size swimming pool at the Oquirrh Park Fitness Center. Lodestone Park, a regional destination, sits on the southwest corner of Kearns. Visitors there can take to amenities like the ziplines and rope courses.
Lodestone Park has a variety of interesting structures and fun play equipment.
An indoor pool with large swimming lanes.
There is even an Olympic Ice Skating training site.

The Kearns Fire Water & Ice Festival

Festival goers can enjoy a myriad of activities like live music, a large pool party, rides, rock-climbing and ice skating.
