Living in Kamas: The Gateway to the Uintas
For those who find Park City too crowded, Kamas offers the antidote: open space and genuine Western heritage. Known as the "Gateway to the Uintas," Kamas is the most populous town in the valley, serving as the commercial center for ranches and mountain cabins. It is the perfect location for buyers who want mountain privacy while staying within 20 minutes of Park City dining.
The community is planning its future growth carefully. The city is actively reviewing the **SR-32 Corridor Plan** (Draft reviewed Oct 2025), which will define transportation, density, and commercial zones over the next decade. Meanwhile, the luxury High Star Ranch continues to expand its offerings, with new phases opening throughout 2026, blending the rural ranch lifestyle with modern resort amenities.
