Living in Marriott-Slaterville

Marriott-Slaterville sits on Ogden's west side in Weber County, Utah. Plain City and Farr West lie to the north, and West Haven to the south. Its 2020 Census count was 2,135.

Morning

Marriott-Slaterville mornings can start at Jeremiah's Restaurant, on 12th Street, whose story goes back to 1979. That year, it says, Harold (Hal) S. Peterson, from Cardston, Alberta, broke ground for the restaurant and the High Country Inn on the same street. It was Moore's High Country first, then the High Country Fare, and became Jeremiah's after a 1989 renovation. Its website says all trails lead to Jeremiah's. Then stroll City Hall Park, at 1570 West 400 North, with a playground and a bowery to rent.

Afternoon

Marriott Park, at 1025 South 1200 West, sits on the old Marriott School site, which was gifted to the city as a park in 2007. It has a basketball court, a playground, and a bowery and kitchen to rent. Heritage Park, at 1359 West 700 South, has soccer. Sugar Rush Soda Shop, at 517 North 2000 West, calls itself a drive-thru drink experience. Parks may be reserved from April 15 to October 15, the city says.

Evening

The River Cove Trailhead, at 903 West 17th Street, has parking, a walking track and a bike trail. The city's Rivers' Confluence marker there explains how the Ogden and Weber rivers shaped this valley. After dark, the city's Dark Sky Ordinance limits outdoor lighting, which residents demanded in 2017, the city says. The stars get less competition. UTA buses serve 1200 West and 12th Street, and Interstate 15 crosses the city. Ogden's FrontRunner station is 5.7 road miles from City Hall.

Seasons

Every Fourth of July, the city says, the celebration starts at Marriott Park with a 7 a.m. 5K and an 8 a.m. breakfast. The parade begins at 10:30 on 1200 West, with lunch and games after. The city's 2026 Garden Market was set for six Friday evenings at City Hall, from July 31 to September 11. John Marriott settled here in the 1850s, and Richard Slater got land in Slaterville in 1852, city markers say. The two merged into one city on July 1, 1999.
