We were impressed with how nice the house is. Every part looked new, high end appliances, furniture, kitchen items, bedding, everything. Nicest VRBO we have stayed at. Our host communicated quickly with good detail. The location was great, close to the Airport and Boise State, and the city. We loved our stay.

Perfection at its Best!

Perfect location, quiet community, easy access in/out, garage in alley made parking a breeze, private patio for fresh air or quiet time, calm decor reflecting nature, very well constructed cottage with all the comforts of home!!! Our grandson (15) bragged about ‘loving the layout, location, and comfort’ with easy access to Boise State, downtown, hiking (Table Rock), Bogus Basin (awesome views) and a local pizza hangout (LuLu’s). Cheers to an awesome stay at Helen Street Hangout!
