The private hot tub is situated steps from the back door and sits under beautiful skies in the Central Idaho Dark Sky Reserve.

Liked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Disliked: Check-in, communication
The rooms were clean, short walk to the bus stop and short ride to town or slopes. The hot tub was very nice.
Only issue we had was not getting an email with check in code to get in the property on day of arrival, and host not respond to attempts by Expedia to reach them, we were finally able to call them directly.
Also, back bedrooms seemed to have no heat, we adjusted the thermostat but it did nothing for the bedrooms
Great property. Spacious, well maintained, comfortably appointed with spectacular views. The manager was quick to address our questions. We all had a great stay.
House was comfortable for our family group of 8. Kitchen was adequately equipped allowing us to cook breakfast and dinner. Check in was fine, house was clean. Great location for skiing.
This was a great house for our family. The house was as expected; a bit dated but totally fine. Hot tub was clean. Views were awesome and the house backed up to open space. Beds were comfortable. Owner was chill. We will likely come back.
We were two sisters and a brother (ages 70s - 80s) with spouses and we get together bi-annually. This property was ideal because it was roomy, well-appointed and close to Sun Valley attractions. Scott, our host, was very responsive. I'd recommend his place to anyone looking for a comfortable get-away place.
Such a great house for families to kick back, sit by a roaring fire, watch the snow fall and spot the wildlife while enjoying amazing views of both Dollar Mountain and Baldy. The house has everything you would need to have a relaxing visit with family and friends. Its location to the Sun Valley Lodge is a nice perk with certain amenities offered to those who rent this wonderful house. The owner is very responsive and we would definitely return again!
I grew up in Ketchum and this rental was a great base for our family to return and one of the best rentals we've ever stayed in. The house fit 7 of us with plenty of space. New kitchen, impeccably clean. Beautiful views of Baldy. The pictures don't do the place justice. Easy drive to River Run, Warm Springs or Dollar in the winter (or free bus steps away). Penny Hill, the prime sledding spot in town is literally in the back yard. In the summer it's right on the bike path and an easy walk to the resort or town. Scott was great to interact with. We hope to be able to book it again the next time we're in town.
The house that had it all: location, comfort, views
We've stayed in Sun Valley 3 times and this is by far our favorite house we've rented. Its location is ideal to accessing everything, and the views from the main room are 180 degrees of astonishing beauty.
Upon arrival, we all went sledding right out the back of the property on Sun Valley's premier sledding hill. We walked 1 block to catch the bus to Warm Springs, or River Run ski bases. Another day, we headed out with snowshoes to explore the Valley View trails to the north. All of this without ever having to use our car. Konditerei bakery and the Sun Valley Lodge are also within walking distance.
The home's layout is ideal--a giant kitchen, dining and great room make it easy for everyone to hang out together. Bedrooms are just down a hall if someone needs quiet time. Decor is simple, old school Sun Valley charm, but comfortable with all the modern amenities and kitchen appliances, bathrooms and technology. You can store skis and gear in the garage, and put your teenager or in laws in the little apartment suite below.
Sun Valley is a special place with very smart zoning, so views are only of beautiful hillsides, and this house is located in one of those special spots with boundless views. We'd rent again, winter or summer, and take advantage of the pool access, which we didn't get to do while in Sun Valley this time--another reason to return in the summer.
Perfect spot for our family Christmas. Very close to the Sun Valley Lodge- walkable to town and the sledding hill is right in the back yard.House was immaculate and had everything we need!
The house is nice and the owner was communicative. House had nice features and was organized. Good location, closer to town and easier to get around than realized. Hope to get to stay there again.

It was all that we anticipated and more.
The location is excellent and the property is warm and comfortable. The owners make you feel at home through the entire experience. We walked to the lodge and into town several times. Everything that we needed was provided and in excellent working order. We would stay here again.
