About this property

The Wandering Viking! Skal!!

  • Step into a Viking Longhouse (of sorts!) in this one-of-a-kind Private Bedroom/Half Bath with Private Entrance. 17 minutes from Micron, freeway accessible.
    This Viking-inspired Bedroom immerses you in the mystical essence of Norse tradition. Cozy and warm, the dim, flickering firelight sets a magical ambiance. Authentic shields and natural elements—like rope and fur—infuse the space with the strength and wonder of the Viking spirit! Skal!!

Mary , the host is friendly , thoughtful and accommodating . The property is clean and quiet, the Viking decor is delightful. Our dog enjoyed the enclosed yard and the resident chihuahuas. The bed is comfortable and the fax fur blankets are cozy . I recommend a stay here , especially if you are weary travelers.

This was a great stay in a nice neighborhood, close to stores and only about 15 minutes from downtown Boise. The room and 1/2 bath are private, with easy access to the backyard space. My dog was able to spend some time outside on the patio and grass area, which was so helpful. Mary is a very kind and thoughtful host!

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The home was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. Check-in was easy, and the host was responsive and helpful throughout our stay. The location was convenient, and the attention to detail in the home really stood out.The Viking room was especially memorable—it wasn't just a room, it was an experience. The décor and atmosphere transported us to another place and time, creating a unique and immersive feeling that made our stay even more special. It was clear that a great deal of thought and creativity went into designing it.We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would happily stay here again. Highly recommended!

Everything was great. Communication with the host was great. Directions were clear. Accommodations were comfortable. The only unexpected thing was the listing indicated there was a shower, but there was no shower or bath.

We had problems with the lock when we came in & didn’t really use the pool. Possibly would suggest a gate so it is easier to get the yard. Other than that it was clean & not a bad location.

Check in issues were more the fault of VRBOs app. Was told I would get a text or email and didn’t had to search through the app to finally find the gate code. The host responded quickly when I messaged about it. The room was homey, the bed although high was very comfortable and the temperature in the room was great. My issues are all with the cleanliness of the bathroom. The faucet in the sink has buildup on it, the toilet has at least an inch of mildew under the rim all the way around, it was the first thing I noticed when I entered the bathroom. And the fake plant although a nice addition is very dusty. I don’t know who they are having clean it but they should go with someone else

Very cute room and half bath. Very comfortable for my one night stay. Of course it would be nicer if the shower was actually in the room instead of in the house. Accessed by going outside and then through a different door into the house, through the house and upstairs to the actual house bathroom. As expected though it works and otherwise I would rate this whole stay as a five across the board.Mary was very nice, communicated as needed and very easy to deal with!!

This should not not be a vrbo. We did not have the whole place to ourselves. We had a room that was impossible to secure with a shared shower. We were there just long enough to call a nearby hotel and make a reservation. It really wasn’t was we were expecting.

When description reads ‘whole house’ and ‘Viking master bath room’ and photos show a stack of towels I would expect a bath or shower. It is at the point that guests have to dig to find the scam. I felt slapped in the face. We came in tired and unwell. The towels were for show. No shower, no tub, not even a wash cloth to wash our face. We left the next morning to get a motel so we could bathe before we left town. There were also people smoking right outside our door so no fresh air. I’ve learned a lesson. Get a decent motel.
