The property is located in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in Boise. Very quiet, yet only a mile+ to downtown. Head out the back gate for hiking and mountain biking. Quarry View Park is 1/4 mile down the street (or out back down the trail) and includes tennis courts, a basketball court, a kids jungle-gym, BBQs, picnic tables, bathrooms, and a large field for soccer, football, etc (Google 'Quarry View Park' for more details).
The nearest golf course is less than a mile away. The main Boise public swimming pool is within walking distance, about 3/4 mile away (Google 'Boise Natatorium' for details).
The Boise Greenbelt is 1/4 mile away from the home. Here you can run, bike, or hike in either direction for miles (40+) along the Boise River. You can also tube or raft in the summer months down the Boise River. Tube rental is about 5 miles away (Google: Boise River Raft and Tube). FYI, we would provide links to all these great places to explore, but VRBO does not allow this :(
The heart of downtown is 1.5 miles away making it close to the action, yet quiet for a relaxing evening on the outside patio overlooking open space.
