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!

BFF Reunion

We had the best time in this very comfy home! Spotless, organized with fresh flowers and a fridge/draws full of food and supplies,for free! Beautiful neighborhood a few blocks from open space with trails or neighborhood bars and restaurants. Can’t wait to come in the spring. You will feel pampered here.

Wow! Great location, great space!

We really enjoyed our stay. This location is awesome - walking distance to historic Hyde Park with shopping, dining and coffee shops. Also could walk to Camelback Park which has a ton of trails. This space was perfect for 2 people and was very well stocked. Would stay at this place again for sure.

I love staying here! It is clean and well kept. The host is amazing and so accommodating. The private yard is serene and inviting. I loved having the view from the kitchen window. This is a repeat visit, and I will be going back. ❤️

Amazing! Didn’t want to leave!

Chelli, the property, and the location make this the best place to stay in Boise! Chelli made sure the house had everything we needed and even things we didn’t know we needed. The thoughtful touches were above and beyond! We enjoyed the comforts of the home and exploring Camelback on foot and bike, the local restaurants/bakeries of Hyde Park, downtown Boise, and BSU. We will definitely stay here the next time we are in town.

This is a perfect spot for walking around the Hyde Park area of Boise. The space was bigger than expected and had everything that we could have wanted. We will definitely choose to stay here again when we visit the area.

Quiet, clean spot

We were in town for a short weekend conference, and it was a great place to have a quiet moment in between sessions and after a full day. Beautiful little patio on the back with a table and umbrella (for a little more shade when hot and sunny). Enjoyed our stay!

Comfortable stay in quiet neighborhood.

Comfortable and nice modern furniture. Heated bathroom floor. Easy to use heater. Nice smart tv. Personal preference would be to have room darkening shades on windows. Quiet at night. Snacks and drinks for guests nice touch.

Great Place To Stay

The host was very communicative and was quick to answer my questions. Location was outstanding for our purpose. Two things stand out - they left such a nice array of snacks for their guests. Not just a granola bar but chips, seltzers, and lots of yummy things. The other is their check out directions - turn off the lights and lock the door. None of the pre-cleaning so many property owners ask of their guests. Thanks to our host Chelli for making our stay wondeful!

Hyde Park

My stay at this property was wonderful. It was perfect. From the communication with the owner, to the amenities, location, thoughtful touches…. It’s one of the best spaces I have rented over the years. I was able to rent a bicycle to ride downtown for my conference, and keep it on premise. It is perfectly located to 13th street stores and restaurants, as well as Camel Back Park, and downtown by bike or car. The shower, snacks, filtered water, walk in shower and living space, bedding, and washer and dryer (if needed) plus a back yard and table…. It was perfect.
