About this property

A quaint cottage in the woods. Close to world class ski resort, Sun Valley.

Welcome to Osborne Cottage!

Osborne Cottage is located in a very quiet neighborhood surrounded by woods with beautiful mountain views. It is a short walk to the Big Wood River, a prime location for fly fishing or a walk by the crystal-clear water. The 2-bedroom cottage is filled with mountain charm, nestled among Aspen trees, you’re likely to see the local Elk family passing through.

You will have a full-size kitchen and cozy living area including a dining area, sitting area and fireplace. The master bedroom has a king size bed; the second bedroom has two twin beds. The front porch is a splendid place to have morning coffee. Feel free to walk over and say hi to the resident chickens whose coop is just a few steps from the Cottage! There is a private driveway – separate from the main property – with uncovered parking.

The Cottage is just a short 9-mile drive to Bald Mountain, a great location for recreation in every season. The bike path, spanning from Ketchum to Hailey and beyond, is a short ride from the Cottage. We are also just 2 miles from the town center of Hailey – full of delicious local eats, drinks and more! There is something in the Sun Valley area for everyone, and your hosts are happy to share their favorite hiking, biking, and fishing spots! Take a fly fishing trip to the world-renowned Silver Creek, stand-up-paddle board on Stanley Lake, or take a sunrise hike to watch the day begin in town! There is world-class shopping, many art galleries and a lively restaurant scene in Ketchum – just a short drive away.

Come and relax with us as you enjoy our mountain lifestyle!

This lovely cottage in the woods was an incredible place to stay. We felt like we were at home. It was very quiet although we were very close to town. Amy was a gracious host. In the summer heat the cottage stayed nice and cool no need for air conditioning. We would definitely stay again.

Words can't describe how beautiful the setting was surrounding this darling cottage in the woods. Our host was so friendly and helpful. The cottage interiors were lovely. Wish we could have stayed longer, but plan on making this our only home-away-from-home place to stay!

Delightful!

Very well furnished and located just a mile from town in a quiet, aspen-wooded area. The location is excellent for exploring Craters of the Moon (about 1 hour away) and the Silver Creek Preserve (30 minutes). Can also recommend the Cutthroat restaurant, as well. Would definitely come back!

Best trailing of the sheep place to stay yet!

We loved the little cottage, it was a beautiful place to stay both inside and out! The river up the road was worth the walk to see and play in. It was a very restful and well stocked house with spacious parking, lots of room between neighbors and lots of wildlife! The Hpstest was lovely to meet and we wish we could have stayed to meet the chickens! Totally recommend this cottage!

Beautiful and peaceful. Fully stocked kitchen if staying in to cook. Enjoyed a glass of wine while reading on the front porch both evenings of our stay. So quiet. For July, we were worried that it would be too hot inside as there is no AC. The cottage was very cool in temperature! There is a fan and we didn't have to use it. When we read the other reviews about other guests seeing elk, we hoped to see 1 or 2. We saw 12 the first evening, woke up to another 8 grazing out back and 1 right by the kitchen window. The second evening, while sitting out on the porch, we saw about 100 elk in total, moving in herds of 12 or so, across the driveway. We aren't sure how common this is at this cottage, but we felt very fortunate to see them during our stay. Also enjoyed meeting "The Girls" (the chickens on the property). Wonderful stay! Thank you, Amy!

Gorgeous spot in Aspen forest

We loved it here, everything was perfect. The owner was accommodating and responsive. The house was clean, amazing linens on the bed and the kitchen had all we needed. We loved sitting on the front porch and watching the wildlife and seeing those Aspen trees. I can’t imagine what it’s like in the fall. And how lucky that it’s so close to the largest grocery in town. Fabulous location!

Stupendous Stay

What a wonderful little treasure nestled back on a quiet road with all the comforts of home. Amy goes out of her way to give you a bucket full of hospitality! Literally not a thing she doesn't think about! We would definitely recommend to ANYONE to BOOK at Osborne Cottage! Just a cozy little hideaway from reality! Don't forget to look for the elk trot each evening!

Great place to relax.

This place is well located on a private street with more that enough space to relax. This could be a 5 star rating but we found it lacking in maintenance. Also the king size bed is FIR, much more than our liking. All said, when we go back to Hailey again, will we most likely stay there again. Jeff
