Location: Elkhorn Village, Sun Valley Area, Idaho, USA View Map
Accommodations: Condo, 3 Bedrooms + No additional sleeping rooms avail, 2 Baths (Sleeps 6)
Keywords: Condominium
Our condo has been thoughtfully remodeled, with hardwood floors, a stone hearth and gas burning fireplace, high-quality furniture, including a kitchen table for six, and a table on the deck for eight, flat screen TV with DVD and X-Box (lots of games) plus basic cable (100 channels or so). There are two well appointed bedrooms, each with queen beds, plus a loft bedroom that can be closed off with sliding panels, which has two twin beds in a trundle setup (plus an air bed which works well for a child). Two full baths with heated tile floors. Washer/Dryer are in the unit, with newer appliances and a fully equipped kitchen, including a gas cooktop. In the summer the expansive deck off the living room extends the living area by about 400', and has a gas barbeque (plumbed to the gas line) and deck furniture on which to relax and enjoy the views of Elkhorn Golf Course. Step down to the grassy areas just off the deck where the kids can play and search for golf balls that trickle down from the 9th fairway.
We're just a few steps from the Village Pool -- one of Elkhorn's two main pools, with its sauna and steam room; the Village Tennis Center; the General Store; and the Elkhorn Golf clubhouse -- we're located on the 9th fairway. Free KART buses pickup a few hundred yards away, it's 1 mile to Dollar Mountain, and five minutes to everything else.
Most of the condos in Elkhorn are in larger buildings, with parking lots next to the units. Bonne Vie is unique -- six smaller buildings, with the garages and parking lot clustered away from the condos. The pathway from the parking lot meanders through the development. Our unit is the first stop on that path, and we are one side of a rare duplex building, with no units above or below our townhome; and just one wall, shared with a unit that is owned by our good friends who promise never to turn their music up! It's peaceful and quiet during all seasons. In fact, the doctor from Boise from whom we purchased is our best tenant, returning to the unit each summer for several weeks.
The adjacent unit, with an identical floorplan, is owned by our friends and may also be available for rent, enabling you to house multiple families.

Map & Owner's Profile
Sun Valley/Elkhorn - Remodeled Townhome on Elkhorn Golf Course
Year Purchased: 2001
Why the Owner Chose Elkhorn Village
We LOVE Sun Valley. As celebrated as the winter is with Mt. Baldy and the great skiing, we enjoy the summer all that much more. We were fortunate to find a condo, which we've remodeled, half of a duplex, at the far end of the Bonne Vie Condos. Quiet, but the closest units to the parking area, and best of all, our friends own the neighboring units.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
We're just a few steps from the Village Pool in Elkhorn, the General Store, and close to the Elkhorn Golf clubhouse, on the fairway of one of the holes (they keep renumbering...it used to be #9). A newly expanded deck offers views of the course in the summer, with lots of room for family gatherings and barbeques, and level grassy areas for the kids to play. Free KART buses pickup a few hundred yards away, it's 1 mile to Dollar Mountain, and five minutes to everything else.

My wife and I met in Sun Valley and have returned many times each year, now with our three kids, to enjoy all that the area has to offer our family.

This unit was exactly as advertised -- nicely appointed, very good location near the Village Pool, and sunny deck fronting the golf course where we spend nearly all our time. And the price was really good relative to the other units we had considered. We'll be back!

Bon Vie is a Sun Valley bargain

This condo was everything I was looking for in S.V. Plenty big enough for 4 adults and 2 or 3 kids. The unit has all the needed amenities and was in great condition. I wanted to be close to everything and this fit the bill. The complex pool was an unexpected surprise and being on the golf course was nice. I couldn't believe how quiet both the unit and the entire complex was.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, adventure seekers, age 55+, families with young children.

Our family had an excellent stay at this location in July 2011. The home is very clean, updated, and in a great location - maybe better than the description. Owner was very helpful and responsive on a minor question we had. Would recommend this location to others. Sun Valley area was great fun for fishing, hiking, shopping, site seeing, and biking.
