About this property

Zinc Spur, Spacious Private Retreat, including 2 BDR Guest House, Pet Friendly!

We are pet friendly, (4 dog maximum) $100. pet fee first dog, $50. per dog for additional dogs. Fees will be added after booking.

ENTIRE PROPERTY

Zinc Spur estate features two spacious homes on over 2.5 acres in the desirable mid-valley. We are a 5 minute drive to Hailey and 10 minutes to Ketchum and the River Run Lodge, Lift and Gondola.

The main house is a huge 5 bedroom/4 bath home. Sleeps 12, plus 4 twin floor mattress pads if needed. (16 total occupancy).

The second house is a spacious 2 bedroom/2 bath that sleeps 4, with two twin floor mattress if needed. (6 total occupancy).

Both homes are comfortably stocked and with so much space, two kitchens and discretely spaced bedrooms, it is perfect place for family and friends to join together.

The entire property is uniquely designed so that the seven bedrooms are discretely tucked away from each other, providing plenty of privacy for everyone. There are beds for 16 and twin folding mattresses to accommodate an extra 6. (4 in the main house and 2 in the guest house).

You will love this property with the glorious vaulted ceilings with floor to ceiling windows in both homes, cozy gas fireplaces (2 in the main house and 1 in the guest house), the location and views out onto the seasonal creek. With multiple patios, there is plenty of outside space for entertaining, relaxing in the hot tub, or just playing outside in the glorious Idaho outdoors. We also love the 7-foot concert grand piano in the main house and the fact that with 7 bedrooms and 6 baths spread over two homes, everyone has their privacy.

MAIN HOUSE

The open living room – dining – kitchen complex (about 1,500 square feet of contiguous space) is the heart of your vacation and entertaining experience. Beautiful dining room table that seats up to 12 and additional kitchen bar seating. Multiple doors provide easy access to brick patios, the barbeque and hot tub, all in a natural wooded setting. In addition, the living room features a 7-foot concert grand piano, foosball table, TV and plenty of seating. This downstairs living space is augmented by a 300 square foot loft overlooking the living room, which provides a quiet place to retreat and talk.
The kitchen is upgraded and well stocked with pot, pans, utensils and dishware for 20. It is open to the dining room where the table seats 12 with additional seating for 6 at the bar. The open floor plan lets the those who are cooking stay connected to the action.

The enormous master suite is located on the second floor, away from other guest rooms. A king bed is warmed by its own fireplace and looks out onto a private balcony nestled in the aspens. The luxurious ensuite master bath features a marble-clad steam shower, jacuzzi tub and architecturally unique flat granite sink. Each of the remaining bedrooms are discretely located and private from the main living spaces, providing the opportunity to relax, read a book or just soak in the location. For the more introverted guests, one bedroom is completely private, located across the patios with its own private entrance and ensuite bath. Each room has a queen bed and easy access to a bath.

For those of you traveling with kids, we are stocked with baby gates, toys, puzzles, games, 2 pack’n’plays, and kids' plastic silverware.

If you do not need the Full Property (both houses) and have a group of 16 or under see our separate listing for just the main house at VRBO.com/3674831.

Included is a heated 2+ car garage. While a necessity for keeping your cars out of the snow during the winter, guests have also creatively used the space for indoor games (there is a ping pong table that can be opened), hosting a party (the garage is fully plumbed and has an awesome counter and refrigerator) and storing bikes, skis and all the other things you want to use.

GUEST HOUSE

The 1,200 square foot two bedroom/2 bath guest house is entirely separate from the main house, located about three hundred feet down the creek and connected by a charming decomposed granite path (it is also accessible from the driveway). It has its own fireplace and features vaulted ceilings with vast windows which overlook a patio and the creek. The well equipped kitchen has a bar-style table with seating for 6. The master bedroom has an ensuite bath featuring marble and a jetted soaker tub. Both bedrooms have queen beds.

Please contact host, Cheri - 208-703-4403 for details and questions.

OUTSIDE GROUNDS

Outside is a wonderland of what the Wood River Valley offers. We are on 2+ acres of forested land located on a seasonal creek which usually runs April through October (it has sweet little trout - please get a permit before fishing). There are several lawn areas appropriate for badminton, volleyball, a happy game of "toss" or just running around. The lawn near the front of the property is approximately 5000 square ft (200 ft long, 50 ft wide). Great to set up a tent, play outdoor games and let the kids run! There is also a large patio off the Main House.

Our landscaping was designed by a local landscape architect, and the creek-facing side of the property features expansive patios with unique quartzite bench features, hot tub, BBQ grill, firepit, and a beautiful secluded view of mature aspens. You may be lucky enough to see some wildlife.

EVENTS or PARTIES

We will consider events for up to 40 guest's upon approval. Additional fees apply.

Event guests cannot park on property. Must arrange shuttle service.

We had a large group for skiing. Main house with guest house accommodated everyone very comfortably. Beds were comfortable. Hot tub was fantastic after a day of skiing. Communication with PM was excellent- appreciate that they were able to accommodate an early check-in. Would book again- thank you.

Great location to SunValley to Ski

There is plenty of room in this home for our family of six for both family time and quiet time. The location allows for quick access to Sun Valley. BYO poker chips. Issues pertained to cleanliness and poorly disturbed heat during our stay (likely addressed post visit). Emphasize having hot tub serviced before your arrival.

Great house(s) for a large family

This combined property, including the main house AND the guest house, was perfect for our group of 14. The main house had a dining room that could accommodate all of us, and having the two couples with dogs in the guest house simplified things. Location in Hailey was great, and ski hill was also close.

Great stay for a big group

We had booked the main house and guest house and they were perfect for our large group of family and friends. Kitchen is well equipped to cook large meals and house also has games for adults and kids. We loved the private large yard for us and our dogs. Access to and from the highway can be tough at rush hour and not pedestrian friendly but we were able to make it work. I would highly recommend and stay again!

We had a great time and the property location was perfect. Lots of public land access for fishing, hiking, Mountain biking and shopping. The big wood river had great flyfishing for all ages. A day at Red Fish lake was fantastic! The property was perfect for large family gatherings, outside dining with an exceptional kitchen. Highly recommend!

Family Reunion

The property is excellent accessible location. Amenities were everything promised. Although close to highway and some neighbors, the trees and foliage provide privacy and adequate buffer. The outdoor and inside living areas are spacious for the number people accomodated. Very good option for people who want to be together yet have comfortable sleeping arrangements. Good value! Good choice!

An Excellent location for our family gathering

12 adults and a baby came for a long weekend to attend a wedding in Sun Valley. The kitchen is well-stocked and easy for a crowd to use. The property manager is incredibly responsive and the beds are comfortable. You will need a car to get around as this is between two towns, but we were so pleased with our choice.

Perfect set up for our guys trip

We were out and about daily and returned to the house for dinner and drinks and relaxation which was exactly what we wanted. And the house delivered. Great bedroom separation and choice, plus very quiet, despite being close to the road. Loved that we were next to Hailey and close to Ketchum - perfect take off point for fishing, white water, hiking and hot springs. Loved the house design and artwork. Host was very accommodating.

Young Family Vacation

This was a lovely property. It fit the needs of our extended family. We had a great time. Communications about the property were accurate and well-done. Cheri was professional and friendly. She was conscientious about communications and quick to respond to the minor maintenance issues we encountered. A quick note - this is a great kitchen for a family vacation, but the cookware needs a bit of attention. We made it work!

Great stay for our group!

This property was a perfect fit for our group with plenty of room for everyone to spread out and enjoy. The location was so convenient for our ski weekend, from the proximity to the mountain to the great restaurants in the town of Hailey. The property was lovely with plenty of driveway space to park our cars. Communication with the property manager was seamless and efficient. The teens in our group really enjoyed the ping pong and foosball tables…fun extra bonus! Overall a great stay for our group and we would stay at this property again!

Perfect family vacation home!

We celebrated our 50th anniversary (and Christmas and New Years) with our 19 kids and grandkids at Zinc Spur and everyone loved it! The huge great room was perfect for our large group. The kitchen is well equipped (including 2 dishwashers!) and the separate bar has glasses for every drink, including our champagne toast on NYE. The grandkids loved the foosball table and the ping pong table in the attached garage. Musicians in the family entertained us on the beautiful grand piano and the guitar. The little kids loved the toy room. And, of course, the large hot tub was a hit! Our 9 grandkids range from 3 to 25, so it worked well for the older kids to have the separate guest house. We loved the spacious master bedroom and the loft area made a cozy bedroom, too. Cheri was an excellent host. She was super responsive, both during the booking and while we were there. She greeted us when we arrived, showed us around, and made sure we knew how everything worked. In brief, this was an excellent, well managed and beautiful property which we highly recommend!

Beautiful and quiet area

There are a few problems - no outlets in one of the bathrooms and you need to know that the master bath has a linear drain behind the vanity. It was a little confusing at first. But overall it was a perfect place for us to gather as family with a large gathering area and well stocked kitchen. Beautiful area.

Excited at first but Unhappy

This property is not as described. There wasn’t a fire pit or ping pong table. The garbage dumpster wasn’t emptied before or during our stay. We had to put our garbage on the ground around the dumpster. The communication was terrible. One of the bathrooms has mold all over the ceiling and the place had cob webs in every room. A lot of windows wouldn’t open and one of the hot tubs wouldn’t heat up passed 98 degrees. I took pictures of everything. We had to buy more garbage bags and paper towels. There were lots of lids to containers but no containers to fit. Surface of master tub hadn’t been wiped down sanitized like listing says..Very disappointed with our stay.
