This 5 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom home is nestled into the mountainside in Teton Village. It is one of the only truly ski in/ski out homes in the village as the ski resort owns our backyard. (There have been months in the past when there is not enough snowfall to ski down our driveway, but when that happens you can walk 5 minutes up a boot pack to get to the Way Home Condominium chair lift!) During the winter, we love skiing home for a late lunch, then heading back out to catch the last tram. During the summer, it's just a 10 minute walk down the hill to 5 star restaurants (like Il Villaggio Osteria), world renowned spas (like the Four Season's Spa) hopping bars (like the Mangy Moose) and the tram.
The location is obviously ideal during the ski season but it's also perfect during the summer, fall and spring as you can bike, hike and golf basically in the backyard. Our favorite hike is the Wildflower Trail which you can access from our driveway. Horseback riding, fishing and scenic/whitewater rafting down the legendary Snake River (with views of the Tetons) is also just a 20 min drive away. Also- During spring, summer and fall we almost always have a moose family that takes up residence next to our small pond in the backyard.
The first floor features a movie/family room, boot room (for ski equipment) spa (with a hot tub and table tennis) 3 bedrooms, 3 full en suite bathrooms and 1 half bath. The second floor has a living room, dining area, kitchen, 2 bedrooms with a full bath between them, and an art studio. 3 spacious decks on 3 sides of the house give ample views of the mountains (and our resident moose!) and provide a pleasant place to picnic in the summer and roast marshmallows in the winter. There's one outdoor and one indoor fireplace, a natural dried up rock stream that borders the property and leads to a small pond, the drinking spot for our resident wildlife. Other popular perks include a massage chair, a Steinway piano, and Maurice Villency furniture throughout.
Important note: This property has been our primary home for nearly 40 years. There are some hard to reach cobwebs (the central room has 20 ft high ceiling!), family pictures everywhere and mismatched silverware. If you are looking for a whitewashed, pristine, (soulless) rental, please do not rent our home! We try to rent it out as seldom as possible to renters who we know will appreciate it and treat it like their own. :)
We commend you on your choice of Jackson for your holiday and hope we have the chance to host you in our home!
