Vacation rental in Sun Valley

Escape to Sun Valley and this soul pad retreat with character. Nestled away near a park so it's quiet (birds sing even in the winter!), yet walking distance to town. Beautiful new maple hardwood floors, granite countertops, and accented with art and treasures from over 20 years of globetrotting. Welcome home!
The living area and stairs up to the master bedroom. Pellet stove, surround sound, WiFi. Plug your own iPod in to the dock and enjoy your own music.

When was the last time you slept in a waterbed? This ain't your college waterbed, though, as this has waveless baffles and a support floatation mattress on top (and a memory foam topper for good measure!), Egyptian cotton 600 ct. sheets, and an organic cotton duvet with a down comforter. Warm and snuggly in the winter, and so comfortable, you won't be able to get out in the morning. Ok, for a hot tub and morning coffee, maybe? Or a powder morning! There is grass cloth on the ceiling to give the feeling of being in a tropical jungle treehouse. Watch the snow fall on the trees without getting out of bed.
There is nothing better than your own private hot tub on the upper deck, right off the master bedroom. Your white robes are waiting. You can see the milky way and the Sun Valley firework shows right from the tub. Don't forget the candles.

Yes, that's a Jimmy Hendricks print on the wall. The downstairs maharaja/rock star room has a private patio for snow entry and covered gear storage if you like.

Private covered patio - store your ski gear in the winter, or your bikes in the summer.

Dining area and kitchen.
Granite countertops, sharp knives, spice drawer, dish washer, microwave, coffee maker, etc.

Looking towards the park. Thank god someone else shovels the walkways.

A shady, cool respite in the summer.

I hope you enjoy my home as much as I do!

Here are some comments from guests so far....

"We had a great time and truly enjoyed staying at your beautiful condo. We all enjoyed looking at the pictures, art, and travel momentos on the walls and around the condo. The kids were also entraced by the lave lamps. The weather, skiing, food, and shopping were all good and made for a nice relaxing trip -- just what the doctor ordered. Also, thanks for the extrtas that you provided while we were there - the gift cert to the Roosevelt Grill, the wine, the wine bottle opener, etc. all very nice touches."- Ken & family

Thank you!! We had a great time & your place was perfect for our little family. The location was so close to everything & that was really nice. We enjoyed the YMCA, the shops, the symphony, bike rides, the art festival & your hot tub! ; )

SUPERB CHILL PAD
My hubby and I so enjoyed the condo. Very comfortable, cool vibe, perfect walk to stretch the legs for groceries, a movie in town, to catch the shuttle for a lift to the lifts or just for fun! Clean, comfy, fun, great music selection, cool art, and superb landlord. Not only would I suggest this rental to others - we will be back!
