Sun Valley recommendations?
Does anybody have any recommendations for Sun Valley? Specifically,
whether to stay in Ketchum or the village, what lodging is good, and so on? I usually stay in the town of a ski area (if it has a town, that is), just because the night-life choices tend to be better and more varied. Dave |

The village is quite a long ways away from Baldy, although it is very close to Dollar Mountain. The odds are you're not going there to ski Dollar. You may be close enough to walk to the lifts from accomodations in Ketchum - I stayed in a chalet that was far enough away to make the free shuttle bus a better option. The shuttles are quite frequent. Some people might find the shuttles less than perfect, but I'd spent the year before in a resort where shuttles were the only way to get around, so it was no big deal. Ketchum has a lot of restaurants and bars. Excellent night life. The village appeared to be a LOT more sedate - maybe okay for older groups and families, but even they would be quite happy in the town too. dh |

Dave If you are a movie buff and fan of skiing history, the Original Sun Valley Lodge is very cool and full of memoraphilia. I also like the outdoor pool heated to 102 degrees F. |

Actually, I meant to mention this as an option. It is very cool, and at least worth a visit even if you don't stay here. dh |
