Amazing place to stay in Boise

This house was so lovely. I would say even better than the photos (which we all know is a rare nowadays!) Lovely amount of space, super clean and very cute yard space. We would absolutely love to stay here again.

Bright and Cheery Cottage

We stayed 3 nights in this lovely cottage. It’s bright and cheery with lots of natural light. Spotlessly clean and nicely appointed. The neighborhood is quiet, with lots of people out walking. Just a few minutes drive from everything we came for. Also — our host was swell.

Our stay

Our stay was a short one but we were so happy with our accommodations, our son just moved into his new apartment because he's starting at Boise State. We all went up to help him. I'd definitely stay again.

Cute little place

Nice rental in a good neighborhood area. Close to the east side of Boise. The owners did a nice job remodeling this home with updated designer features. A lot of eating utensils but lacking in cooking utensils like mixing bowls and spatulas.

Comfy cottage, great location, dog friendly

Stayed with my wife, daughter, and dog. It’s within walking distance to concerts at the botanical gardens. Only two blocks from the Roosevelt Market - a nice spot for breakfast, coffee, beer, wine, etc. Just a few minutes drive to downtown or the river walk. The tree lined streets are great for walks.

A gem of East End

I reserved this property for my parents' use when they came to town for their grandson's graduation. They loved the remodel results and how nice the area is for daily walks. The homeowner, John, has done a wonderful job of setting the place up for guests and doesn't require guests to fulfill long lists of tasks before heading out. This house and its owner are truly Boise gems!

A Sweet Spot!

This cozy Bannock St. Cottage couldn’t have been more perfect for my daughter and me to visit our son and brother just down the street, a few blocks away. Loved the two front sunrooms; one used by my daughter for an office. Roomy, comfortable living room, dining space, well-appointed kitchen, cozy bedrooms, nice-sized bathroom and laundry room, all in pristine condition, made our stay truly delightful in every way. The neighborhood is great for walking (especially to the Roosevelt Market. . .a gem for coffee, breakfast, lunch, or to pick up some unique food and wine selections) Can hardly wait for another memorable stay at 906 E. Bannock!

Volley Ball Tournament

This is a wonderful home to stay in if you have things to do at BSU. We drove back and forth from the Calvin Williams Stadium several times a day. Could have walked in 15 minutes BUT it was a freezing couple days with new snow. House is very well appointed, and comfortable for me and my husband, my daughter joined us with her Bassitt Hound and he enjoyed the welcome too!

About the host

Hosted by John Magnan

Host profile image
Hi, We have been enjoying Boise since 2005. It is a very unique "big town" and we try to take advantage of the great restaurants and micro breweries in town and then burn it off hiking and skiing in our down time. We hope you love it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

Location and quality!! Quiet upscale neighborhood, just one block off of Warm Springs Ave and a few blocks from the foothills. Walk to BSU, St. Luke's, Whole Foods or the local Roosevelt Market which is 1 block away. This home has undergone a 4 month high level modernization, custom bath with decadent shower, big custom kitchen with new high end GE appliances, stone counter and breakfast bar. Open floorplan to dining area and living room. Also 3 cozy nooks- front porch with the only radiator we left in the house for an old fashioned warm up, the lovely office and the back porch with the washer and dryer. BONUS!! This place is heated by a volcano! It's true- we have geothermal heat so it is super green home and it is super insulated- so if the temps drop you will have a very green and very cozy space to curl up into to!!

What makes this property unique

Lovely features like the original 1905 door that leads to the back porch, or the arch to the office. 9 foot ceilings throughout make this house feel so much bigger. It is a great place to spend some time with friends. But my favorite- the custom Tall glass surround with custom tile work, feels like a resort.
