Summary: This 1969 artist's condo is quietly nestled on the main corridor to downtown and only a half-mile from the entrance to the Boise Greenbelt. Located on one of the only lakes in town this is the perfect place to unwind and rest your head after experiencing all that Boise has to offer.
The Space: Welcome home to your studio suite on State Street!
Join us for the cozy months with covered parking, ski/snowboard storage, and close to Bogus Basin road!
This small studio suite has all the essentials and is filled with custom local art to brighten the room. You will have your own parking and entrance straight into your room. While this unit is in a complex with shared walls you will have the place all to yourself. Note: There is the potential to hear noise from neighboring units. This is similar to a ground floor lake-side hotel room.
Guest Access: Guests will be able to park their car under the carport and will enter the unit though the sliding glass door.
The Neighborhood: Quiet neighborhood condo-complex. Lake access out your front door. Grocery and restaurants are walkable, Bogus Basin (ski mountain) is 20 miles away.
Getting Around: Turn left at the lake and Studio 8 is the last unit on the left. Park in the carport.

Very cute, small but plenty for what we needed. Kitchen utensils could be a little better equipped , there was only 1 fork and 1 spoon and no spatulas. Other than that, everything else was great. The amenities were nice with the bikes and kayaks.
Great little place near everything. The room has a lot of character with a pond outside. The ballpark, breweries, and downtown aren't very far. I highly recommend a stay.
This was the perfect place for my hubby and I to stay for a long weekend away. The location was so close to anything and everything we wanted to do while in the Boise area and the studio and property did not disappoint us one bit. It was so nice to be in the city area but also be able to walk out the door and feel like you were secluded. Having our own private lake area was just beautiful. We spent time out by the water every single day listening to and watching the birds, watching the fish jump and just loving the beautiful weather. We really can't say enough about this little hidden gem in Garden City.
I needed a place to crash for the night, going from Seattle to Ketchum. Couldn't have been a better option for me, I will probably do this again next year. My only issue was understanding the heat. I got in late and couldn't get it to work, but I'm an old man so that's probably on me haha. I loved the carport parking for my truck.

We loved everything about this property. From having a few snacks for you because you might check in late to having kayaks and other activities at your disposal is great! We arrived in the middle of a snow storm and when we arrived, the driveway was shoveled for us. They go above and beyond and have great recommendations for foods and activities in nearby areas. We will definitely be back!
We had a wonderful time in Boise! We had everything we needed, including some extra snacks! We were only disappointed that we didn’t stay longer and get to use the kayaks. Thanks for allowing us time at your VRBO!
I absolutely loved this place. The location was very quiet and peaceful. You are right on the pond with kayaks handy. The condo was beautifully decorated and a plus was the blackout curtains though with the view from the front you almost want to keep them open. I would definitely recommend
Quiet space. Peaceful surroundings. Fun things for sale as a bonus.

Will Definitely be coming back! The place is quiet, cozy, and super clean. It was like staying home, away from home. Area is nice, definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to travel, get away, try something new. Price is well worth it!
The small studio was perfect for our 5 night stay. Everything was clean and comfortable with so many thoughtful amenities in a small space. Easy access to downtown Boise and not a far drive from anything. We’d stay here again if it’s available next time we’re in town.
