Perfect family ski vacay
This townhome was perfectly designed for a large family or multiple families to share and have plenty of privacy. It was pristine, squeaky clean and very well organized with 2 fire places for cozy ambience. The skiing options at Bald Mountain were perfect for different levels and it was a 6 minute walk to Bald Mountain lifts and into town for shops and restaurants. LOCATION could not be better.

Wonderful Spot Walking Distance to Everything!
Absolutely loved this spot. As advertised and more! Even in winter easy walk to the base of the slopes. Hot tub was wonderfully relaxing. Beds were comfortable and towels and other touches were upscale. Would stay again for sure - thanks!!

Best property
Everything about our experience was excellent. The owners messaged me within an hour of booking to make sure I had all the information I needed. The location was perfect, the hot tub clean, the towels so lovely, the interior decorations tasteful, the bottle of wine and popcorn were a lovely touch. We will definitely stay again and we look forward to checking out their other properties!

Perfect location in Ketchum
We absolutely loved our stay at this property! Easy and beautiful walk to the ski lift and River Run lodge, nice short walk into town. Very comfortable beds and awesome kitchen, and a private hot tub! Close enough to everything but also just far enough away that the property is very scenic. We stayed as a group of girlfriends but this place would also be perfect for families. The host was easy to communicate with and very kind. Can’t recommend highly enough! If we ever return we will absolutely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Curt & Nichole

Host profile image
The owners of this high-end 3-story Ketchum townhome are a retired mergers & acquisitions consultant and corporate attorney. They enjoy quality time with their children and college friends in Sun Valley - winter, spring, summer and fall!

Why they chose this property

The location to the River Run Lodge was undeniably the reason the owners purchased this home. The ability to walk out the door to the gondola - and leaving the car in the garage to avoid the crush of morning skier dropoff - cannot be beat!

What makes this property unique

This townhouse is one of only 3 with completely unobstructed views of Bald Mountain to the west, and Ketchum to the east. Most homes in the development have one-half of their views of the neighbor across the driveway - not this property.
