This was a phenomenal home! The pictures don’t do it justice. We stay with 10 adults and 3 children and there was never a time that we felt uncomfortable or lacking for space. My family and I all said we would definitely stay here again!

We had an amazing stay at this VRBO in Sun Valley! The location couldn’t have been better—close to everything but still quiet and relaxing. The place was spotless when we arrived and clearly very well cared for. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, which made cooking meals easy, and the beds were extremely comfortable after long days skiing. The host was fantastic—great communication, helpful instructions, and made the whole process smooth from booking to checkout. The home itself was cozy, beautifully set up, and had all the little touches that make a stay feel special.Sun Valley is such a great destination and this property made the trip even better. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

Great stay!

Great stay for a group of friends on a ski trip. House was spacious and had everything we needed. Only issue is the key pad to get in died and the back up batteries didn’t work, so we had to use the spare key for the side door. Would recommend replacing keypad. Otherwise, highly recommend this property!

Perfect spot for our time in Ketchum!

We spent two weeks at this property and it was fantastic! The location couldn’t be better being on the north side of town and close to the bike trail. The house itself is a great set up. With four bedrooms downstairs (two of which were bunks) and one upstairs there was plenty of space for multiple families. The upstairs has an open floor plan that allowed for hanging out and relaxing. Cherie was a fantastic hostess! She was timely and helpful with all communications. She has also made the home set up for renters. There were plenty of supplies- towels, paper towels, detergent, etc. The only downside to this rental is that we didn’t book it sooner to ensure we could have been there for our entire trip to Ketchum! We can’t wait to return and book this home again. :)
