Sun Valley Resort is actually part of the larger, old cowboy town
of Ketchum.
The self-contained, pedestrianized village is 1930s
Tyrolean style and at the heart of the resort is the Sun Valley Lodge
with alpine-style rooms, restaurants, stores and outdoor ponds, ice
rink, and steaming pools. It was in this lodge that Hemingway wrote
most of For Whom The Bell Tolls. Ketchum by contrast is mostly redbrick
buildings in the Old Western style, housing many gourmet restaurants,
bars and nightspots as well as art galleries and a theater. It’s a
lively and casual community with real small town friendliness and a
vigorous local artists’ colony. A free continuous shuttle-bus service
links Sun Valley Resort to both Dollar and Bald Mountains and
throughout the Woods River Valley including Ketchum, Hailey, and
Bellavue.
