THIS CONDO HAS WHAT EVERYBODY HOPES FOR IN A VACATION RENTAL (but few are lucky enough to find!)

LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION! (It just doesn’t get any better than this!)
Nowhere else in the Ketchum/Sun Valley area will you be so close to ALL the activities that you come to Sun Valley to enjoy: world-class skiing, hiking, biking, fishing, golf, restaurants, roller-blading, shopping, swimming, a workout and fitness center, and so much more! All of these activities are within a block or two, or a very short ride on the free bus. All this, and yet it is SO peaceful and relaxing! In fact, you’ll feel like “Wild Idaho” is at your doorstep as you watch the nearby herds of elk, catch a trout just steps from your door, or just relax on the balcony while gazing at the breath-taking scenery. You couldn't ask for a more perfect setting for your next Sun Valley vacation!

NO CAR? NO PROBLEM! -- QUICK, FREE TRANSPORTATION TO LIFTS AND TOWN
Hey, who wants to walk or drive when you can comfortably ride there in less time for FREE?! The free bus is, BY FAR, the quickest and most convenient way to get to the skiing, IF you are fortunate enough to be near a bus stop on the ONLY bus route that services both of Sun Valley's ski mountains, Sun Valley Resort Village, Elkhorn, and downtown Ketchum all without the hassle of transferring to another bus. The bus stops in front of this building every 20 minutes and, IN JUST 4 MINUTES, will drop you off within steps of the ONLY continuous bottom-to-top, high-speed quad lift on Bald Mountain (first tracks, anyone?) It will also get you within a block or two of most of the shops and restaurants in town in less time than it would take you to find a place to park or to walk from most in-town locations. NO RENTAL CAR EXPENSE, PARKING HASSLES, OR DESIGNATED DRIVERS NECESSARY!

SPACIOUS, CHARMING, and COMFORTABLE
An open floor plan with walls of windows and high, sloping ceilings give a spacious, bright, and cheerful feeling by day. By night it has a cozy and romantic atmosphere with a real wood-burning fireplace as the focal point of the living room. You'll feel right at home with its charming, tasteful decor and extremely comfortable furnishings. Please note that, at 1000 sq. ft., this is a TRUE one-bedroom condo, NOT a studio or a loft, just priced like one!

HUGE BALCONY with FABULOUS VIEWS & TOTAL PRIVACY
Nestled in the treetops, above all nearby residences, you'll enjoy serene, unspoiled mountain views while maintaining your privacy whether inside the condo or out on its large (200 sq.ft!) private balcony. A southern exposure, combined with an extended, wrap-round roofline keeps the condo comfortable and the balcony and condo access protected from rain, snow, or ice year-round. You will be able to stretch out and relax on the cushy deck furniture in cool shaded comfort during summer or bask in the soothing warmth of the sun apres-ski in winter. And if you're a fan of barbeque, there's an excellent gas grill for year-round use, too.

FULL-SIZED KITCHEN, PLUS DINING WITH A VIEW
The fully-equipped kitchen with professional cookware and a dishwasher makes culinary creation and cleanup a breeze. The adjacent dining room seats four and enjoys a fabulous ambiance and view.

LUXURIOUS BEDROOM; CUTE, CLEAN BATH
The bedroom is handsomely furnished including a new, luxurious queen-size memory-foam mattress that ensures a restful ending to your fun-filled days. The cute and immaculate bathroom has all the towels you'll ever need, plus a hairdryer.

TOP-FLOOR ADVANTAGES WITH GROUND-FLOOR CONVENIENCE! (How cool is that?!)
Although it enjoys an ideal top-floor-corner location, access to this condo is just as easy as a ground-floor unit. No hassles with stairs or elevators, because the building is built into a hillside with private parking, a bus stop, and a multitude of recreational opportunities just a few easy steps from your door.

SMOKE-FREE AND CLEAN
The cleanliness and quality of this condominium will please even the most discerning guests. Smoking is not permitted and we accept only clean, extremely well-behaved pets and conscientious pet-owners. To ensure that our guests respect our property and policies, we require a signed rental agreement and a security deposit.

    • This condo is the REAL THING! And so are Lestia and Pecos! The other guest comments describe them very well, and are accurate in every detail. I lived in Ketchum for 20 years, now reside in Seattle, stayed here while attending my son's wedding this summer. My insider tip: STAY HERE :-)

    • What a great place to stay! Loved sitting on the balcony gazing at the wonderful views. Exploring Ketchum and Sun Valley was so convenient as the KART bus stopped right in front of the complex.

    • Splashed with sunshine, cozy and tastefully appointed, this condo is a rare find. Even in early March were were able to sit on the lovely balcony and enjoy the view. At night we snuggled on the comfortable sofas and enjoyed the woodburning fireplace. Whatever the season, this is the place to stay!

    • It was a pleasure to meet Lestia and her sidekick, Pecos. We were able to have a joyful Christmas with our daughters, who live and work in Ketchum. The condo was ideal for us. A bonus was the lovely winter view of the mountains.

    • We had a great vacation in Sun Valley and Lestia's condo was like a home away from home! It is very comfortable, clean, and boasts a gorgeous view of the mountain. We would definitely stay there again. We were able to meet Lestia & her dog Pecos too- both very charming! Thanks for a great stay. Paige & Don

    • Lestia made our stay welcome and comfortable. What a wonderful spot. And the owner was such a gracious hostess...along with her dog Pecos (host!). Direct view of Baldy and up and down the Valley. Two of our nights were stormy. Fun to watch the lightning and hear the thunder from the covered deck. The condo was well-equipped including a cork screw and bottle opener. The condo was so-o-o comfortable and homey! Including a delightful picture of the owner, her horse and Pecos out on the mountain! We would rent again. Roy and Susan Kimbel, Tacoma WA

    • My husband and I and our dogs stayed 7 months in Lestia's condo and loved it. It is very comfortable with a great balcony and beautiful views. You can't beat the location which is steps from the bike path, free bus service and hiking trails. We are so glad we found it and would recommend it to anyone. Fantastic Place!!
