If you are lucky enough to rent this sweet spot you will be writing a similar review. I stayed for 2 months and didn't want to leave. Michael's place is in old Hailey, the neighborhood is really sweet, beautiful homes, friendly welcoming neighbors, kids on bikes to school pass every morning and afternoon, 2 minute walk to main street, great restaurants, grocery, bike path is 2 blocks and you can ride that to Ketchum/Sun Valley. It's groomed during snow months so get out your fat bikes or nordic skis. Michael's home is very comfortable if you prefer to hang out all day. It's clean, relaxing with the big yard/views, really cute decor, very well lit, fully stocked kitchen, very comfortable beds, nice front and rear porches for hanging out on. Wood River Preserve is walkable from house, great swimming holes in summer. Bus stop is 3 blocks for free bus to Ketchum if you don't want to drive to ski or explore Ketchum. There's nordic skiing in Hailey too (Quigley) if that's your gig. Best restaurant in Wood River Valley (CK's Real Food) is a nice 15 minute walk to south end of town. Michael's home is in a neighborhood with locals who are some of the friendliest people I have ever met. Michael was easy to work with. Any questions I had were easily answered. I had groups of friends come visit during my two months and the home easily accommodates larger groups. Can't say enough good things about this property.
