Perfect!
I traveled to Boise to spend a weekend with family that lives there and this house was perfect! The location is great and easily accessible. The backyard was perfect for my dog and for family time outside. Next time we go to visit I will definitely be seeing if this place has an opening!

This is a nice cottage in a quiet clean neighborhood. I believe it was built in the 50s and has nice character. It’s nice to sit in the backyard and watch squirrels. Close to restaurants, recreation, and coffee. I recommend staying here your next trip.

Charming home in the heart of it all
Really enjoyed our stay at Amy's property. The home is a small 2 bedroom. Super cozy. Great backyard with lots of crickets and squirrels. The neighborhood is something out of a movie. So quiet and has a great vibe. Just blocks away from grocery shopping and lots of food options. There are bikes in the garage, which is such a nice bonus. Loved our stay.

Amy's 1950 home is absolutely quaint and just lovely! Great location for all of our coming and goings and very spacious. Wasn't our first stay at this property, surely wont be our last. Thanks for the tip to visit Goldy's Amy! Dont think we'd have stumbled upon it ourselves.

Our long time - well loved - Boise location is no longer available for renting and we are so pleased to have found this sweet little house. It is attractive, comfortable and convenient with a relaxing back yard and the exciting bonus of bicycles. We hope to be able to stay the next time we are in Boise.

Lovely little bungalow
My son and I had a very nice stay here on the southeast side of Boise. The small home is well kept in what seems to be an older, quiet neighborhood of bungalows, with some larger, newer builds going up here and there. I enjoyed seeing deer some mornings and evenings in the back yard, and neighboring yard.

Perfectly Lovely and Welcoming
What a nice home in a good neighborhood, close to the city, 10 min to the airport. We went for daily walks in the neighborhood and it was and quaint and safe. The home was clean, well stocked with anything we needed, just perfect. My adult daughter, her dog, and I stayed there. The large, fenced backyard was perfect for her dog. For those not wanting to stay where dogs are allowed, no worries. I’m picky about smells and cleanliness. The house was very clean and smelled great. There are hardwood floors and tile on the floors. The chairs out back were nice for relaxing outside with a pretty lawn and mature trees. We actually saw a deer in the neighbor’s backyard! We had never seen that before. My daughter thought it was a pet. Haha. The house was so cute, original cabinets in the kitchen were so nice to see. Heater in the house was newer, so not everything was vintage. Decor was pretty and everything was as it looked in the photos. Check-in process was simple, no glitches. We didn’t have to contact the owners since there were no problems. I highly recommend staying here. Since my daughter just moved to Idaho, my husband and I will likely be back to stay.
