A cute, quirky 1 bedroom that worked out perfectly for us! Fantastic location/ neighborhood. Immaculately clean & I can’t say enough about how stocked it was! More things than you might even use! My husband took care of all the chocolates. Only reason I couldn’t say excellent is I’m an extremely horrible sleeper so the light in the morning was bad for me… but would be an excellent for anyone else!

Comfy “Boathouse”

This is a very clean, spacious place for two people. It had everything we needed for our four night stay. The private back yard space is a real plus, and the North End location is very convenient. We enjoyed our stay here.

Perfect Romantic Getaway

The furnishings were very tasteful. The amenities exceed the average VRBO. The location is excellent for exploring downtown Boise and other surrounding landmarks. The property is very quiet and private even in the heart of a neighborhood. I would book this property everytime I visit Boise!

This unit is in a quiet neighborhood and easy to find. We were in Boise to visit family in the area. The kitchen was equipped with what we needed as were the bedroom and bathroom. The instructions were clear and the communication with the landlord was prompt. We'd be happy to stay here again!
