Wonderful pet paradise

Such an amazing stay

We have dogs and so being able to bring our boys with us was such a relief of not having to find a pet sitter for the weekend. The house is such a cute little place and perfect for a little get away stay. The house was really clean compared to others we have stayed in and the beds were comfortable. The host responded in a timely manner with any issue we did have.

Clean, cute, good location.

This is a cute property and was a great jump-off base for our ski weekend. Full washer and dryer were great for drying gear. We didn't use the game room or back yard because of the snow/cold, but definitely would. Comfy bed. season.

Great fenced yard for dogs!

We rented this for Thanksgiving trip. It was very close to downtown Boise and was awesome to have a fenced yard for our doodle and Frenchie. Decent size place. My only suggestion would be to add a king bed vs queen.

Clean, Fun, and Great Host – Highly Recommend!

We had an amazing stay! The property was spotless and well-maintained, making it feel like a home away from home. The property manager was fantastic, checking in to make sure everything was perfect and offering to help make our stay even better. The game room was a highlight – so much fun, and I’m leaving as an undefeated foosball champ! This was more of a staycation for us, but we’d love to come back in warmer months to enjoy the spacious backyard and fire pit. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a relaxing, cozy, and enjoyable stay!

Weekend in Boise

We didn't spend a lot of time at the house, but when we were there we were comfortable. The one thing that I would like to suggest is to put in a curtain in the living room that isn't see through for more privacy.

Hidden Gem!

We were in town for an event in Nampa but wanted to stay close to the mall/downtown. The location of this house made it easy to access all of Boise and the surrounding areas! House is very clean and comfortable and the back porch was shaded and a great spot to hang with family in the evening. The host was super easy to communicate with which made things seamless. We will be back!

Easy & Comfortable

Five stars for what I needed. Conveniently located, on quieter dead-end street, included all necessities and more, catered to our pet's needs quite easily, good communication from host. This was for business and also business with relatives. The ease of the transaction, staying here and communication helped me be able to take care of business and rest and recharge without skipping a beat. Thank you!

Covered patio with nice yard and shade trees made this early June stay so nice. Spent a lot of time outdoors just catching up with my son and his fiancé. Extremely dog friendly! The best situation for those with a dog. Kitchen was well stocked—big refer and freezer. Wonderful time and Justin is a great host with outstanding communication throughout the stay.

Dog friendly, nicely decorated house

We didn't bring any pets with us but noticed it's definitely set up well for dogs, with a fenced in back yard and doggy door. We came as a family of 4 pulling a long trailer and there was enough space to park on the street.
