About this property
Immaculate, bright & airy newly updated home in gorgeous Meridian next to Boise!
BLUE SKY RETREAT is in beautiful Meridian, just minutes from Boise. It is well furnished for you to stay for a few days, or a few weeks. For the price of a local hotel room, you'll have a full two bedroom house with a generous kitchen space, dining table that seats up to 8, a breakfast bar and a comfortable living room with large HD smart TV. The home is clean, the furnishings are stylish and fresh, the atmosphere is comfortable. The fenced yard has plenty of grassy space to play with the provided lawn games on this 7000 sq foot lot with fruit trees and a firepit. From this ideal location, you can walk, bike or hop in the car to enjoy the nearby restaurants, grocery stores, shopping and activities.

About the host
Hosted by Kelly Evans
Our son and daughter in law moved to Boise a year ago. After a visit over the summer, we decided that we wanted to be able to spend more time in this beautiful place with our family. We had been spending a fortune to squeeze into a drab hotel room and longed for something with some personality where we could entertain friends and family, cook, play games, spend time outdoors and relax in a pretty space. We were so excited to find this little home and refurbish every single surface to make it ours! Sharing it with guests is how we can afford this gem, so please tell your friends about us. We hope our guests feel as "at home" here as we do.
Why they chose this property
Because it was available!! Boise is such a hot market, so when we saw this amazing location, we jumped on it. We worked tirelessly to clean it up and make it pretty, and we LOVE how it all came together. It is the perfect size for a get-away. Our other son will move to Boise next year and we see ourselves living in the area one day in the future, so this is a great start for us.
What makes this property unique
Our next door neighbor happens to be a yummy coffee shop! And we love being able to bike to the Meridian Main Street Market on Saturdays starting in the spring, or any of the restaurants/shops on Main street during the rest of the year!
