Sun Valley Resort’s award-winning tennis center is the home to a three-day Tennis Package, available June 19 through 21. The package includes nine hours of lessons, 9 a.m. to noon each day, and lodging at Sun Valley Resort. The special rate for the Tennis Package is only $570 per person, based on double occupancy or $840 single occupancy and extra nights may be added on for $180 per night.

“We’re blessed with countless combinations of amenities and activities here at Sun Valley Resort,” says General Manager Wallace Huffman. “Whether taking advantage of one of our value-laden golf or tennis packages or enjoying hiking, biking, horseback riding or our gun club, there’s something for every recreation taste.”
Flush with four-season amenities, Sun Valley Resort is set to add to the already impressive list in 2008. The first nine holes of a new, 18-hole Donald Knott championship golf course will join the acclaimed 18-hole course at the resort, with the second nine scheduled to come online in 2009. A state-of-the-art, 58,756-square-foot golf clubhouse and Nordic Center overlooks the course and expanded practice facility, while an 18-hole putting course – named Sawtooths because its layout and mounding resemble the adjacent Sawtooths mountain range – will welcome avid and novice golfers alike.
As if that’s not enough for one season, the resort plans to unveil an elegant, outdoor Symphony Pavilion which dovetails with the thriving arts scene at Sun Valley.
