ケストレルズパーチ-ボイシズヒルトップリトリート

Born in southern California and having grown up in Malibu, I've traipsed across much of the west, including Humboldt County (CA), Big Cottonwood Cyn (UT), Iliamna (AK) and coastal Oregon before setting roots for the last 20+ years in Boise.

I worked as a fisheries biologist, here in Idaho, before founding and managing the Treasure Valley's only community radio station, Radio Boise (tune in to 89.9 or 93.5 fm when you're in town!). I also worked for a media start-up, and now work for Idaho Conservation League.

Deirdre is now retired after 29 years as a 5th grade teacher, near the mountain town of McCall - 2 hours north of Boise. Our two girls are attending college, here in Idaho and in Utah.

We love to spend time sharing our love and respect of the outdoors and feel SO blessed to be living amongst the incredible beauty of Idaho.

Deirdre and I spent almost six months renovating "Kestrel's Perch", making design and layout choices that, we hope, will make for a truly special travel experience for our guests. The result is a crisp, clean, uncluttered space that's been accentuated by furniture choices and features that enhance the comfort and natural appeal of "The Perch's" hilltop setting. It's definitely not a stretch to use the cliched phrase "one-of-a-kind" property to describe the Kestrel's Perch. Our new friends at Airbnb seem to feel the same, as the summer season is already booking up quickly!

The 1000 sq. ft. home features a large master bedroom, second bedroom with captain's bunk-style queen bed (also nicely suitable as an office), well-lit kitchen/living room and italian-tiled bathroom. The kitchen is fully outfitted with new stainless-steel appliances, quartz countertops and spacious white cabinets.

Our guests who find themselves in Boise on a business venture will be pleased to note the wall-to-wall, built-in desk (with drawers) in the second bedroom, should the lovely terrace prove to be too much of an indulgent distraction.

In addition to plenty of closet space, the large utility room (with new washer/dryer) may also be used to store bikes, skis or other gear securely.

An ample carport will keep you and your vehicle dry and cool, in the case of inclement or unseasonably hot weather.

In addition to all the basic amenities, Kestrel's Perch also comes equipped with:
- small kitchen appliances such as juicer, bullet blender, food processor, crock pot and coffee grinder
- two 50" HD televisions, one in the living room and one in the master bedroom
- fully fenced backyard
- covered backyard patio
- outdoor table/seating for four
- garden benches
- large Weber BBQ
