There is lots of good hiking at all three of those mountains (plus Deer Valley) as well.

I'd stay at one of those hotels, the Hyatt Centric Park City will give you a condo type setup if you book a 1 bedroom suite or better. You can scan the Homes and Hideaways site to find a condo based setup too. Homes and Hideaways opens up more mountain towns in Colorado to stay at if you are willing to pay the preimum and book through that site.

There are also some options in the Lake Tahoe area but I'm not as familiar with those properties in the summer. We are trying out the Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe this August.
