Home away from Home!!
This is a spacious 1980's Cottage has approximately 1000 sq ft, vaulted ceiling open floor plan 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom cottage that can accommodate 4 adults, or a small family of four. Due to the COVID Pandemic we are taking extra cleaning precautions and following the CDC and VRBO cleaning protocols.
The kitchen is fully stocked to make any size meal you may need. Feel spoiled using brand new electric oven and storing your cold and frozen goods in side by side refrigerator with water and ice dispenser.
The bedroom has a brand new King size bed with plush mattress. Updated linens and pillows are always a priority at our cottage.
The living room has a sofa, and two additional chairs for extra seating. There is a Murphy bed that converts to full size bed as well.
Large bath is complete with large walk in shower, plush towels, and complimentary toiletries.
The cottage has white birch flooring installed for that new cozy home feel, as well as easy clean up.
The cottage has a Xeriscape backyard. Saving water one day at a time! Complete with gas grill, contemporary fence, river rocks, "grass" that looks perfect all the time, and a couple chairs to enjoy quiet time. Please note the gate is about 3 inch gap between each rung, if bringing a small dog.
We offer high speed WIFI connection for our guests, which should make it easy to stream movies on Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Peacock. The cottage has two TVs, one 70” smart TV in the living room and one 32” smart TV in the bedroom. Both TVs have around 51 digital HD channels and stream various providers.

About the host
Hosted by Jenn Yehle
I am a host that loves to host as much as I love to travel to other vacation rentals. My husband and I have been married for 20 years and have 3 children. We love to travel to beaches, lakes, hot springs and anywhere in nature. We love to host people in our cottage as it is close to town but gives us plenty of nature. Many guest will be fortunate to see baby geese, ducks and even occasional baby kittens. We are continually updating the cottage to have a warm and comforting place for out of towners to enjoy.
Why they chose this property
Quiet older neighborhood in Boise, within 5-15 minutes to everything in Boise. We love the fact that we are so close to everything in Boise, but we still have the feeling of the country. Guests should look to stay at our cottage if they want a cozy cottage feel. We think the cottage is like a great pair of worn jeans, so comfy, and cozy.
What makes this property unique
Close to everything, without all the hustle and bustle of city life. Peaceful setting within minutes to anything in Boise.
