Lovely little spot.

Very nice place. Quite small, but just fine for two people. Comfortable bed. AC. Small patio to enjoy the outdoors. Quiet neighbourhood, but easy access to downtown and restaurants. Loved having the bikes on site to take when we didn’t want to drive. Very communicative hosts- they even left some beverages for us. Would recommend.

Cute Bungalow

This little bungalow was very cute and cozy. It is in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood within walking distance of nearly everything Boise had to offer. Our host was friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. Even in the extreme heat, the house was comfortable. We definitely would stay there again!

Perfect Boise Home

We had an amazing stay and always try to stay here when we return to Boise. The home is clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. Stephen and Lynette responded promptly for all question and needs. The location was fabulous. We walked everywhere…downtown for dinner, the Roosevelt Market for lunch and snacks, campus, the hills for hikes. Loved it!

Great location and great accommodations!

Lynette and Stephen were wonderful hosts. Very responsible and considerate. Their wonderful bungalow was exactly what we were hoping for. We walked downtown everyday. Also walked to our nieces graduation on the Boise State campus. We saw where our other relatives stayed and have to say we thought our spot was the the perfect place. Wish we could have used the bikes too but a little too chilly for us. Cozy but very comfortable and clean. Thanks Lynette and Stephen. If we're every in Boise again, we will definitely look you up.

This is the perfect place to stay in Boise. Close to downtown, in the historic district, close to the Greenbelt and just right for my husband and I. The bikes were a bonus! Hosts were close by and gave good suggestions for places to check out. You won't regret staying here!
