"We booked the Sun Valley Inn over Mother’s Day weekend. We got a call a few days before our trip that we had gotten an upgrade to the Sun Valley Lodge. It was absolutely incredible, we felt like we didn’t belong there, it was so fancy lol. It was our first trip to Sun Valley, and we are blown away by the beauty. The lodge was incredibly accommodating to us with our E bikes, storing them and even charging them for us."
