The property is amazing. The location is ideal, close to town, but very private. It sits on a huge stretch of river. The property is big. The house is rambling and oddly imperfect in ways that make it very charming. It shows the hallmarks of a long loved family home.
This is a great, very comfortable house in a really amazing location right on the river. Tons of amenities, easy walk or bike to downtown. This was our first trip to the area, and we were not disappointed!

So happy to hear you and your family enjoyed our home. We hope you will return again!
The location of the property on the Big Wood River is excellent. The house was clean when we arrived. There is a 'beach' area immediately adjacent to the property and the people who used it were loud at times. Not the best for sleeping babies. The house was reasonably well equipped. It is dark which is disappointing given the potential for river and mountain views. For a house with as many bedrooms as it has, the dining area had insufficient seating and there was not an area outside of the house suitable for all to sit and relax. These last two comments are not a 'lack of disclosure' issue rather just an observation. The walk into town was easy. The absence of A/C in some rooms made it challenging to sleep as the windows do not open and the rooms were hot.. Given the evening temps in Ketchum, the ability to open windows would have been very helpful in that regard. The hosts did respond immediately to our request for portable A/C and fans for which we were grateful.
We were looking for a fun vacation spot away from the crowds of the national parks, and boy did we find a good one! Sun Valley was amazing with hikes, rafting, shopping, and great food. We even tried our hand at fly fishing. We traveled up to Stanley, ID, for some white water rafting and a day trip at Redfish lake. The house was perfect, right on the river for easy kid entertainment with swimming, tubing, and fly fishing. And perfect for adults with a wonderful deck for an evening cocktail or just relax and read during the day. We highly recommend Sun Valley and this home.

Glad to here you picked the right spot for your Sun Valley vacation and in particular our home. Hopefully, you enjoyed it more that just one star⭐😉
Great location, cabin had super character and was very cozy. Bathrooms are dated. Lots of clutter with glass and flatware. Many bathrooms and bedrooms has not heat.
Back deck was a mess. Price was high considering the condition. Needs a new ski boot warmer. We had a great time and Boots attending to all our requests.
