Great location, Great House

We stayed at this beautiful house for two days while visiting Boise. It's conveniently located near downtown and was a perfect place for four adults and four children (two families). Very clean and well equipped and the host was very nice and accommodating. Recommend to anyone visiting Boise.

Tasteful Boise property

We were in Boise for lacrosse and this property was perfect for our needs. It is in a quiet neighborhood with a nice lawn yet still very conveniently located to all the parks and restaurants etc. The house is decorated very modern and quaint and is very clean.

Magical place to stay!

We absolutely loved our stay here! The home is meticulously put together. Not only is the house beautiful, the beds and furniture are super comfortable, and the Harry Potter touches are adorable. There's even a drawer of HP-themed games in the kitchen! Everything was just so well thought out and every need was anticipated. Host was very responsive to communications. Can't recommend enough and would love to stay here again!

Well adorned

The townhome is updated and is just as pictures reflect. It was nice having garage access for snowboard gear. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking and baking tools. There are 6 stools for dining at counters. The bunk bed is a double, so we brought a queen blowup bed and it worked great in the master walkin closet. the

A "Charming" Place

Our family of 4 stayed one spellbinding night at this cute house in Boise. The cupboard under the stairs and other decorative details were appreciated by our Harry Potter fans. The place was bright and welcoming, the beds were comfortable, and the bathrooms were nice. We appreciated the RO water and wished we were staying long enough to use some of the sporting equipment in the garage. A more comfortable couch would have made our stay even more magical, but overall, it was a delightful place. Highly recommend for any witch, wizard, or Muggle family looking for a unique stay!
