Featuring a family-sized kitchen, private hot tub, and cozy wood fireplace, this impressive vacation rental will add a touch of luxury and comfort to your Idaho getaway.
The house is located in a quiet residential neighborhood nestled in the foothills of Bald Mountain, just two miles outside of downtown Ketchum. You'll be within walking distance of some of the best outdoor activities in the country, with hiking, biking, and skiing less than a mile from your front door.
With vaulted ceilings, rock finishes, and giant floor-to-ceiling windows, this home has an inviting, rustic aesthetic reminiscent of a mountain ski lodge. A wraparound deck and a large stone patio offer plenty of room to soak in the great outdoors, and the private hot tub is a great way to warm up on chilly nights. Tucked back amongst the trees, you'll feel like you're miles away from civilization.
The huge stone hearth forms the centerpiece of the living room. Break out the game table to establish the newest family board game champion, or choose a film from the extensive DVD library for a cozy night in. Armchairs and sofas provide comfortable space for everyone!
The foodie in your family will go crazy for the well-appointed kitchen. After dinner, take advantage of the extensive counter space and whip up a batch of your favorite cookies - the perfect activity for a cold winter evening.
When it's time to turn in for the night, you'll get to take your pick of three wonderful bedrooms. The master bedroom is nice and airy, with a king-size bed, two armchairs, and a TV armoire. Its private bathroom features a vibrant splash of color and a sunken bathtub with hot jets for warming up after a day on the slopes. The other bedrooms are further down the hallway, offering queen-size beds (one of these rooms includes a private en suite bathroom). No matter which option you choose, you'll wake in the morning feeling bright, refreshed, and ready for the next adventure!
You'll have countless options for the day ahead. The Ketchum area is filled with numerous biking and walking trails, and the nearby Challenger lift can have you at the top of Bald Mountain in just 10 minutes. Additionally, a free shuttle to Sun Valley stops every half hour just 500 feet down the road from the house, which means you can grab your skis and be out on the runs in no time.
Book your stay in this wonderful rental now for the perfect outdoor escape!

Wonderful

Great property. Well outfitted and extremely comfortable. One minute drive to Warm Springs lifts and parking. Stove and oven were good. Some minor additions might be a few non stick pans, but otherwise the kitchen was well appointed and knives were reasonably sharp. All the bedrooms and beds were comfortable. Would rent there again.
Really great to be so close to the mountain, the dining chairs need a little work, the organization of things could use some work - overall a little face lift but generally a wonderful place to stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
Disliked: Communication
Great location. The house size and spaces were adequately described in the write up. The property was tired, especially the furniture and the cabinets. The biggest complaint we had was in customer service. We had a problem with hot tub sanitation, and they told us they would be by to correct it for three days and never did. We ask for a partial refund, but have not heard from them.
Location was good and it was clean, but it could use a major renovation. It is very early 70s late 80s. Very squeaky floors. But, the hot tub was a very nice touch.

Comfortable
Perfect for our family gathering. Plenty of space. Especially loved to sit in front of the fireplace in the great room.
We really enjoyed the size and location of this Sun Valley home. The multiple bedrooms with dedicated bathrooms made it easy for a multi family stay. The house is older, but certainly functional.

We enjoyed our stay at this great house. It was as advertised. The location is convenient and a short drive/bike or even walk to town. Quiet neighborhood.

spacious home in a quiet neighborhood
lots of room in the home and great amenities including hot tub (loved it) and owners left bikes for us to use. Note, the main portion of the home is very dated and dark (we had the lights on all day). Fabulous patio under the pine trees.
Great house for family vacation. Short drive to town and ski lifts. Would definitely book again

Warm springs home away from home
We really loved the location and size of the property. Everything worked. We weren't there much, we were mainly out doing activities, but the time spent there was very comfortable.

Not like Pictures
This property was a disappointment. The pictures were far different from what iIt actually looked like. It is very worn out and dirty. There were mouse droppings in the master bedroom. The heating and cooling was inconsistent where the house was extremely hot or ice cold. None of the walks had been shoveled and were iced over. There was clutter all over the place. The garage was filthy to the point where we couldn’t even put our car in it. Keep looking if you want something that is updated, clean, and maintained.

Beautiful home
The home is beautiful and had plenty of space for four adults and four pre-teens. It is located within just a few minutes from downtown Ketchum, the Warm Springs entrance for Bald Mountain, and within 10-15 minutes from Dollar Mountain. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking and bakeware, as well as spices. There is a huge gas range and griddle that were perfect for early morning pancakes. The living room has comfortable furniture, a small game table (e.g., for checkers), lots of puzzles and family games, TV/DVD/Cable, as well as a massive fireplace.
If you rent this house in the winter, make sure to bring a 4 wheel drive vehicle if you plan on parking in the garage. The driveway is very steep. Otherwise, there are two spaces at the top left of the driveway that make access in/out quite easy.

Not spectacular
The pictures didn't accurately depict the age and lack of upkeep of the property. The furniture was old and a bit dirty in the living room, various items were not maintained or functional (pull-out couch, dish washer). Outside space was not maintained, including the hot tub which smelled. Loved Ketchum (3rd time visiting) but unlikely to recommend staying at this home to others.

Skiing vacation in Sun Valley
Overall, it was a wonderful experience. It got off to a rocky start when the house was not clean upon arrival, but after that it was a great experience. The home was wonderful with lots of puzzles and games to enjoy. The jacuzzi was wonderful at the end of the day. The location was excellent and close to Warm Springs ski lift. It was an easy 5 minute walk to the bus stop and made for an excellent trip overall. The staff was extremely helpful, especially the gentlemen who cleared the snow from the driveway and walkway. All in all, it was an incredible experience. We will definitely be back. Thank you.
