So cute & great location

The cottage was as cute as the pictures. The location was perfect- less than 10 minutes to downtown. Our only suggestion would be more knives and pots & pans in the kitchen. We made do with what was there, but we definitely had to improvise.

Best Stay in Boise

The cottage was well appointed and cozy. My wife loved the decor and the location to downtown and neighboring areas was excellent! Having parking right next to the cottage was ideal. The thoughtful snacks were greatly appreciated. We would definitely stay here again.

Cute place!

This was a cute, small place for 2 (if you’re a couple) and possibly more if you open the hide a bed in living room. You must close it back up as it takes up entire living room. This was fine with me as we were only staying 2 nights. The accommodations were fine, kitchen well stocked and you are close to restaurants and shopping. Will hopefully be staying there again!
