Our stay was wonderful. Everything from making the reservation to checking out was done professionally with no stress. Our accommodations were as nice as described and our furry family really enjoyed the large back yard and their time in the house. The amenities are just great for a pet family. It's located close to everything. Upon our next visit to Boise we will surely stay here again. Also the management team were wonderful to work with and so helpful.

Nice quiet neighborhood and worked great with our dog. We were able to take him out through the sliding-glass door to the fenced backyard which was convenient. I enjoyed sitting on the patio enjoying the afternoon sunshine.

Covered patio with nice yard and shade trees made this early June stay so nice. Spent a lot of time outdoors just catching up with my son and his fiancé. Extremely dog friendly! The best situation for those with a dog. Kitchen was well stocked—big refer and freezer. Wonderful time and Justin is a great host with outstanding communication throughout the stay.
