The Boulderview Residence
Perks for the Parents
This much-coveted contemporary condo sits atop a ridge in Elkhorn near Sun Valley, Idaho and boasts spectacular views and miles of hiking trails just steps from the door. It sleeps 5 + 1. Parents will love the add-ons here: think locally-roasted coffee and a French press, Swiss Miss cocoa and Stash tea, plus a Toblerone on every pillow, bath robes and fabulous bath products. You can even pre-order a welcome fondue dinner for your first night in. Spend your days on the slopes during winter and come summer, you can hop on to a hiking trail or cycle route. Finish your day with a dip in the shared pool or warm up in the luxurious hot tub - this is the perfect place to relax with the family.
Why Kids Love it
The layout works for small families and the condo is stocked with board games, books and toys. The lounge has a Samsung Frame 4k TV connected to premium cable and gigablast streaming services, including Netflix, Amazon Fire and YouTube - ideal for movies before bedtime. Kids will love splashing in the pool or trying out the hot tub in the winter (age and time restrictions may apply and those under 18 should be supervised). For kids who want to test their skills on the slopes, Sun Valley Resort offers group and private lessons at the ski school. The hosts also have a sled that guests can use during winter stays.

About the Location
This residence is located in Sun Valley, Idaho. Public transportation is a 1/2 mile walk and is best used in summer time - the road down to the bus stop might be daunting in the winter snow. Most guests choose to have their own transportation so they can explore all the natural beauty and hikes that the area has to offer. The condo overlooks Elkhorn Village, which has a golf club and fishing lake, as well as access to the slopes, and has views of Dollar Mountain and Baldy. It's 2 miles to Sun Valley Resort (for ski facilities, ski school, bike hire, shops and restaurants) and 3 miles to the town of Ketchum, where there is a range of stores and amenities. The closest airport is Friedman Memorial Airport in Hailey, ID; Twin Falls, ID airport is 2 hours south and is known as Magic Valley Regional Airport, and Boise, ID Gowen Field is a 3 hours drive.
Accommodation Details
The condo has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, set on 1 floor. Completely remodeled in 2019, this property was designed thoughtfully with visiting guests in mind: it features a new open floor plan with a modern gas fireplace, high end designer furnishings, expansive chef's kitchen (with a Vitamix blender and Soma filtered water pitcher) and a wrap-around deck with spectacular views of Baldy, Dollar and Boulder Mountains. The main living area includes a kitchen, dining area, lounge and porch space, as well as a hidden utility cupboard with a washer/dryer. The primary bedroom has a kingsize bed and the second bedroom has a queensize bed with a single bunk bed over the top. The hosts also have 1 travel crib and a high chair available. Both bathrooms feature a walk-in shower.
Style Notes
Boutique-style condo. This modern home features an open floor plan, creating a great social space where you can cook, dine or play together as a family. Blending the best of a family home with a boutique hotel feel, it offers rustic wood textures and textiles complemented by sleek modern furnishings and a contemporary monochrome palette. Underfloor bedroom and bathroom heating together with a modern gas fireplace in the living room make for a super cozy space. We love the sleek black kitchen, the cabin-style wall panel details and the beautiful sun-drenched terrace.

Sun Valley, Idaho
Ski mountains and fields of wild flowers
This lovely family spot has been a favorite for generations, thanks to its ski areas at Bald and Dollar Mountains, its miles of mountain trails and its wildflower-filled meadows. Kids adventure trails are great fun, family ski instructors know their stuff while in the summer, splash parks and swimming holes in Big Wood River equal family fun. For a true Sun Valley experience, hike up the Bald Mountain Trail and ride back down on the gondola.
