Sun Valley ski stay Feb 1st-6th

Had a wonderful stay at this condo. It was incredibly charming and clearly intentional in guest comfort. We had everything we needed and the location was perfect with easy walking distance to cafes, shops, and restaurants in Ketchum and short drive to the mountain. Hope to visit again!

French Chateau in Sun Valley

We stayed a week and the place was wonderful. It was fully renovated and impeccably clean. The location was perfect for us in that we were there for a wedding and were close to the hotel where most of our friends and family stayed and also walking distance to town center and near Bald Mountain. It was a great experience.

Please disregard the one star for skiing experience as our stay was not in ski season, but there was no N/A response available and a response was required. The French Alpine Ski Chalet was clean, cozy, comfortable, and nicely decorated. The condo had ample parking for our cars and was well provisioned for a comfortable stay in easy walking distance of any place in town. We were able to cook meals easily with the tools provided, and had two coffeemaker choices! We would love to stay here again any time of year!!

Perfect summer vacation

My family and I stayed again in this charming 3-2 unit in Ketchum, ID this summer. We love the amenities that this home provides. It is very comfortable and quiet. And the location is so central to everything. We never used our car. We would stay here again and highly recommend this VRBO.

I absolutely loved staying at this place! The interior was beautifully decorated and was cozy and charming as described. It had a nice outdoor deck where we could sit and relax after a day of skiing. The property was located right in downtown Ketchum so we could walk to all of the shops and restaurants. It was only a 5-minute free shuttle ride or a 15-minute walk to the ski slopes. In fact we did not even need to rent a car because there were free mountain shuttle rides available even to- and from- the airport. Our host was very friendly and available to answer any questions. The kitchen had all “high-end” appliances. Our stay here exceeded my “expectations” (which are generally pretty high). Definitely plan to return!

Our visit to Leslie’s place over the holidays could not have been any better. Her place is clean and decorated as beautifully as her pictures show. Her local property manager was so welcoming and so helpful with many local tips on things to do. The location was fantastic and we could walk everywhere. We will definitely go back. Steve

Fantastic location edge of town and close to Baldy

We loved our stay at Leslie's European Alpine chalet. We are a family of 4 with teenage boys, so it was great to have our own private master suite upstairs with bathroom. Bed was super comfortable. There are 2 bedrooms downstairs so each boy had his own room. The condo was well cared for and completely updated with a Euro ski chalet feel. There is a cozy wood fireplace in the family/TV room right off the kitchen, and heated storage downstairs for skis and boots as well as parking. Most importantly, the place is on the edge of town (two blocks to restaurants/shops) so quiet but very convenient. It is a short walk to nordic trails and a short shuttle to Baldi that picks up about a block away. We will definitely stay again!
Response from VrboOwner on 18 Mar 2020
Our heated storage area is definitely a plus for winter sports and we are pleased that our cozy ski chalet feel is a feature reason for staying with us.

Yearly Ski Trips.... Awesome Location & So Comfy

We got married skiing 15+ years ago and have planned ski trips with groups ever since. We had 5 Adults and this was perfect. Great views of River Run, walk to everything in town, great details, amenities and well stocked kitchen. Notes were thorough on how to utilize everything (rarity). It's a cozy condo, can't really fit more than 2 in the kitchen at a time but we loved it. We had some small hiccups but the Owner & Property Manager were very accommodating and got back to us right away. Had to do with snow....18" overbite on day 1...which was the best day of skiing on the whole trip so definitely not complaining. Would definitely VRBO this unit again!! Hope to be back soon :)

Alpine Chalet in the heart of Ketchum/Sun Valley

It would be tough to find a more charming 3 bedroom apartment in this perfect location in Sun Valley: it is a minute’s walk to restaurants and shopping and a comfortable walk on the Wood River Trail (or a brief free shuttle) to the River Run lifts. At night you can sit by the fire and see the lights of the groomers on baldy. The owner, Leslie, was so kind and made us feel at home for our holiday stay. The property manager, Regina, is phenomenal and can make anything happen! We stayed with our family of five, including 3 twenty-something’s and found we had ample space and everything we needed. The master suite being upstairs provides excellent privacy. Would stay again in a heartbeat! What others have said about the slightly worn exterior of the building is true. But the condo is amazingly nestled in the trees for a downtown location, and we came to view the spotless modern condos nearby as soulless compared to our cozy alpine chalet!

Hi Kathy, Thank you so much for the kind review. It was special for us to have a family in our condo during Christmas that really took advantage of all that Sun Valley offers. We would love to have you back as well. Have good 2020. Best, Leslie PS For some reason my review of you did not include your communication. I am not sure what I did (or did not) do. My apologies but thank you again for your review.

4/10 Poor

Overstated description

This property is not a home or Ski Chalet, but a second floor condo in an older complex. The description and photos do not accurately reflect the property. It is not "right in downtown", but on the outskirts. The downstairs bathroom had not heat. The master bathroom does not have a fullsized shower so no heat was a problem. A request for a refund pased the min stay, as departed early, was denied. It is not a place to stay for a week. The price point inferred luxury finish and spaces, which this unit in a condo was not. Mary the property manager was a delight.
Response from VrboOwner on 18 Mar 2020
We are very sorry that your stay was disappointing as we pride ourselves on our positive history of providing a full service guest experience. Though you opted to shorten your stay with us our "no cancellation policy" was in place however, as a gesture of good will towards your concerns we did return in full the your cleaning deposit and of course all taxes on nights you did not use.

Quaint and Quirky

Well decorated but dimly lit. Great location to town, but a bit to far to walk to slopes (with gear). Wrap around balcony, but given specific instructions not to use the balcony in the winter. Nice fireplace, but told not to use ( and when operational it required extra $35 cleaning fee and bring your own fire wood). Beautiful wood floors that were very creaky. Rooms are cute but small (can’t stand up in upstairs shower). Carpet runners warmed the place up, but downstairs bathroom carpet with bleach stains. VRBO directions say East River and owner directions say West. Info says sleeps 6, but instructions from owner said the top bunk was “broken.” That said, I would stay again, but first, I would look for other options.

Thank you for your patience. We do not remove the snow on our deck in the winter. Therefore it is a safety issue to be on the deck since there is often ice underneath the snow. Our dashboard also shows that we offer only (1) of our bunkbeds.

Don’t judge this book by its cover

Condominium is part of a small 2 building group that needs maintenance outside. However, once inside, the owner has done a wonderful job decorating and making it comfortable and well-equipped.

Lovely cozy condo

This well located condo is very well supplied and clean. It is probably best for a couple or small family because it is small and only has one comfortable shower. The second shower has a very low ceiling and not comfortable for adults (we are a tall family). Despite the tiny shower and cozy quarters, we loved it and would welcome another chance to stay there.
