Only good things to say!

Review:We had the pleasure of staying at the Wood River Retreat, and it was a wonderful experience! From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. The property is located in a serene location, offering incredible views of the surrounding mountains. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay.Highlights:•Comfortable Accommodations: The cabin was clean and well-maintained. The beds were comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep after a day of skiing.•Fully Equipped Kitchen: We loved the modern kitchen, which had everything we needed. The thoughtful touches, like a welcome basket, made us feel truly special.•Outdoor Amenities: The hot tub was a favorite spot for us to unwind and enjoy the fading evening light. •Proximity to Attractions: The location was perfect for our activities. We were an easy walk to the ski lift, and just a short drive or leisurely walk away from a charming downtown area, and local restaurants.Host Interaction:The host was incredibly responsive and accommodating. They provided detailed instructions for check-in and were available to answer any questions we had during our stay. Their recommendations for local restaurants and activities were spot on!

Awesome townhome. The cleanliness, decor and amenities are top notch...Bright, spacious..everything you could possibly need and so much more. A healthy walk to the ski lift and/or River Run Lodge is convenient and so beautiful. Easy access to town for shopping and restaurants. The owner, Curt, could not be more helpful and accommodating.

Fantastic Location and Home!

This was a fantastic stay for my family. We wanted to spend time hiking and being outside and this was such a great location to walk to town for coffee and hit the trails for great hiking and biking. Curt and Nicole were fantastic hosts and great communicators. Kitchen is the best stocked of any I have every seen in a vrbo. Wish we could have stayed longer but we will most definitely be back.

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.

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.

Delightful location. Left the car in the garage most of the time. Crackling fire to read by in the early morning and evening before bed. Nicely appointed + organic amenities for laundry, daily cleaning, and dishwashing. We found this VRBO prepared as if for incoming loved family members. Nice!

Perfection at Every Level !!!!

Could not have asked for a better Sun Valley getaway. The property was even better in person! Initially, we thought it was out of our price range, but it is absolutely was worth every penny. All the bedding and towels are super lux, and the home is very well stocked with everything you need plus things you love and didn’t even know you’d appreciate. It even has a complementary Keurig coffee station! The owners have thought of everything and are kind and considerate on top of it.

SUPER STAY!

We had a wonderful time at this home which is a stone’s throw from the River Run Lodge and short walk to town. Everything you could need/want is provided including a fully outfitted kitchen for preparing any size meals. The jacuzzi is fantastic and we loved the integrated Sonos sound system and turntable. Beds are super comfortable and the main level floor plan allows for quests to spread out or gather together for conversation, food and games. Very easy to communicate and coordinate with the friendly owners and property manager. A+ property.

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.
