The Perfect Sun Valley Vacation House - Location and Views!
Year Purchased: 2009
Why the Owner Chose Sun Valley
We are thankful for the opportunity to explore and experience the adventure and style that is Sun Valley.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Staying at our home makes sense. It is just a short walk to the Sun Valley Lodge, it borders the wildflower covered Penny Hill and has clear views of both Bald and Dollar Mountains. The free Ketchum shuttle passes the driveway, cross-country and snowshoe trails start across the road, a paved bikepath leads from the house to Ketchum,and the stars shine clearly above the private hot tub that sits outside the back door.
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 various incredible pools at the lodge, along with the locker rooms and fitness center. It also provides big discounts on golf greens fees and tennis court rentals.
The center of the Sun Valley universe. Use the pools, game room, fitness center. Dine at Gretchen's or have a drink at the Dutchin' Room. Sunday Brunch in the dining room is a must! Take time to look
Great soups and Kobe burgers. Excellent prices. Really nice people too.
A small center of shops for the Sun Valley visitor. Restaurants and post office are here. The Recreation Office is here also.
Both indoor and outdoor ice skating rinks. Enjoy the Sun Valley Nutcracker outside with hot chocolate and cookies on Christmas Eve followed by the Dollar Mountain torchlight parade!
Owner's Map of Sun Valley
The home is a wonderful legacy provided to our family by our parents/grandparents. The property was originally received in exchange for professional work they did for the Sun Valley Company (the Lodge) around 40 years ago and explains its perfect location adjacent to Penny Hill - with great views looking up to both Bald and Dollar Mountains. They built a beautiful house that has been cared for and updated regularly since. It's a place of peace and relaxation for our family.
