One of the best VRBOs I’ve stayed at!We booked for our family holiday celebration and there was tons of room for everyone, the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for our turkey dinner, the game room with shuffle board was a lot of fun, and we enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub. The hosts were always very prompt and helpful. Would hands-down stay here again!

This home was an incredible find! The hosts were exceptionally friendly and quick to respond to any questions. Their thoughtful welcome gift of goodies and drinks made us feel instantly at home. The house was spotless and beautifully maintained, with plenty of cozy spots to unwind. It was spacious enough to comfortably accommodate our entire family. We especially loved the game room—it was a hit with everyone! The outdoor area was equally impressive, and we thoroughly enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub and gathering around the fire pit. We would absolutely stay here again.

We loved this house! Visited lovely Pocatello for a three day soccer tournament, found this place on VRBO located close to the fields as well as many restaurants and stores. The house was very cozy and clean. Super fun for our family and friends with the yard and hot tub. Host was great, communicated and responded quickly, would go back again.
