Map & Owner's Profile
Beautiful River Run Condo on Bike Path-Steps to Gondola & Town
Year Purchased: 2000
Why the Owner Chose Ketchum
This location is in town, on the bike/x-country path and about four minutes to the River Run lift plaza. In summer I often walk over to River Run, hike up the mountain, take the lift back down, go back home for a soak in the hot tub and walk into the center of Ketchum for lunch or dinner. It's just so easy to get everywhere from here.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium (New in 2000)
This place is quiet, south-facing and private with great views of Baldy, yet it's close to everything. We've got a great community hot tub which the whole family can use (seats up to 12) and our fitness center is spacious & well equipped. Plus we've got great covered parking and an elevator up to our floor if you should care to use it...and let's not forget the new River Run gondola!
New Gondola & Chairlift Access to Baldy. Shops & River Run Lodge
Cinema has four screens and shows up to six different movies at a time.
This drug & variety store has everything...check it out before you go somewhere else.
Great produce, meats, fish, deli & wine make it an awesome place to shop.
One of the best Y's around. Has everything for kids from 1 to 100--really! Welcomes short term users.
This 4 1/2 mile hiking/biking trail to the top of Bald Mountain is a great way to get some exercise and enjoy the woods, wildflowers & views on the flanks of Baldy.
New venue for symphony and other concerts during the summer months
This will be the new home for the Sun Valley Center for the arts
Paved bike trail runs a total of nearly 45 miles and includes a complete loop through Ketchum, Sun Valley & Elkhorn as well a connecting us with Hailey & Bellevue.
Owner's Map of Ketchum
I was born in upstate New York and moved to Seattle for the mountains and sea. When I discovered Sun Valley & Ketchum it didn't take me long to realize how special a place it is....mountains, sunshine, a million & one things to do year round and a great community.
