For the outdoorsy dad: Hyatt Regency Salt Lake City
Next to the dramatic Wasatch Range, Salt Lake City has some of the best outdoor access of any U.S. big city. The mountains, known for fluffy power skiing and snowboarding in winter, are equally fun to explore in the summer; plus, they’re less crowded.
After a scenic hike and mountain bike ride, active dads can continue the outdoorsy theme with Hyatt Regency Salt Lake City’s Happy Camper upgrade. Available daily, it can be added to any stay. It will make for a memorable indoor camping experience with a child-size indoor tent, cozy blankets, pillows and a play campfire setup.
A stay in Salt Lake City means plenty of city perks — the downtown area is the fastest growing in the U.S. with a burgeoning brewery scene. Dads can visit more than a dozen local breweries on a brewery tour, see a laser light show and a moon rock on loan from NASA at the Clark Planetarium, and dine on Spanish tapas at the hotel’s Mar | Muntanya. A Father’s Day stay at the Hyatt Regency should include plenty of pool time and sunsets with views of the Great Salt Lake from the rooftop fire pits.
Hyatt Regency Salt Lake City’s Happy Camper package is an upgrade from $90 per night. It includes a seasonal treat, a children’s book, an animal toy, an in-room movie and a 1 p.m. late checkout. Rooms start at $189. World of Hyatt points are not currently available.
The angler and golf lover’s dream trip: Sheen Falls Lodge

At the property’s historic fishing lodge on the River Sheen — where Sheen Falls Lodge holds exclusive fishing rights — the resident angling expert helps guests fish for local wild Atlantic salmon. The hotel’s executive chef will cook a guest’s catch for dinner or smoke it in the lodge’s own smokehouse. June and July are the peak seasons for Atlantic salmon fishing.
