Amazing Sun Valley Family Stay

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.

Nice Siblings' Reunion

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.

Ketchum Getaway

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!

Beautifully sited property

I love this home but there were a couple of glitches: the binder with all the property info and procedures is missing, we needed to call for TP and hand soap. We needed to purchase dish towels, laundry detergent and bath wash. And maybe those items just aren't provided anymore. We just didn't know. Otherwise we had a fabulous time and we love this house.

Great location

Nice house within walking distance to SV Lodge and downtown. No toilet paper or dishwashing soap. They brought some after getting ahold of host, 2 days later. Not a big deal, but certainly expected to have that on hand. Lots of ice on the driveway that was dangerous. We out out salt everyday, and it was close to melting off after 5 days. I mentioned it to host, but they did not take care of it.

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.

Excellent location and lovely stay

We had a lovely time here. The location was perfect. Kids loved sledding right out the door, super close to alpine skiing as well as Nordic. We did it all! Great to have the hot tub to unwind in….Lovely setting/views. The wood fireplace was a real treat to have; the house is well appointed and we lacked nothing. Super easy check in/out. Would stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Scott and Emmi

Host profile image
Our home is a wonderful legacy passed down by our parents/grandparents and is a place of peace and relaxation for our family.

Why they chose this property

We are thankful for the opportunity to explore and experience the adventure, style and peacefulness that is 'Sun Valley.' You could not ask for a better location with perfect views of Bald Mountain and the ability to walk to the Lodge and all of the resort's amenities. Privacy and convenience combined.

What makes this property unique

Staying at our home makes sense. It is just a short walk to the Sun Valley Lodge, it borders the wildflower covered (or sledding-ready) Penny Hill and has clear views of Bald and Dollar Mountains. The free shuttle passes the house, cross-country and snowshoe trails begin across the road, a paved bike path leads from the house into Ketchum and beyond, and the stars shine clearly above the private hot tub.

We love to hop the fence and sled on Penny Hill in the winter and climb it to look over Ketchum in the summer. House rental includes Recreation Passes to the lodge which entitle *guests to use the heated round Sun Valley Inn pool and the Olympic pools in summer. The passes also provide discounts on golf greens fees with priority tee times and discounted tennis court rentals.

* Pandemic-related changes: Five (transferrable) recreation passes are now available per stay. Sun Valley Inn pool reservations are required and may be made same day.
