We had 3 couples and one small dog. Went to a concert at the college arena which was very close to the house. We enjoyed the stay and were comfortable with this many people
What a perfect place to call home for a few days. Named quite appropriately the Happy Hive. Everything was exactly as we wanted and everything we needed was available and more. Central and a short trip to every place we visited. We would gladly revisit and book here again when we're back in town. Thank you for making our time in Boise special and comfortable!
Very cute cottage with a beautifully kept landscaping. The house was conveniently located and while close to downtown was very quiet. Our pup loved hanging out with us in the nice sized grass fenced backyard.The home had a nespresso machine which made me very happy as I live to sip my latte in the morning in my pj’s and finish the next chapter in my book.I really appreciated that they texted to let me know when the property was ready early (before 4pm). We would not hesitate to stay here again, it’s a great little house with three bedrooms and two bathrooms.
