General overview

We love the location of our home. We are in a coveted neighborhood in the foothills of Boise. We have lots of trails and green space right out our door. We have a large backyard with a trampoline, fire pit, hammock, and soccer goals. We have lots of room in the house including a very large playroom. We are located very close to beautiful Boise, ID. We're also on the way to tons of Idaho's amazing adventures: skiing, white water rafting, lots of natural hot springs, World Center for Birds of Prey, famous fishing, etc.

The space

We have 4+ bedrooms: one main bedroom with a King size bed and en suite bathroom, 3 bedrooms with queen sized beds, and if requested, a queen sized inflatable bed can be put in the home office. Our home has two indoor gas fireplaces, a very large playroom with swings, balance beam, gym bars, craft area, and reading/art nook. There are 3 bathrooms in the home. Our backyard is large with mature trees, a trampoline, gas fire table, outdoor furniture, gas grill, outdoor table, kids' toys, and access to open space through a back gate. Out our front door is a large green park across the street and trailheads to miles of trails. We love to hike and mountain bike from our house. Our community pool is one block away.

Guest access

We have two stories to the home. Guests will have access to the entire home. We also have bikes, kayaks, paddle boards, wagon (can haul pool toys to the pool), outdoor games, hammocks, etc. to loan out. Guests will use keypad on front door to access home.

Notes

There is no public transportation here. You'll need to either drive or rent a car. We have family members with allergies. If you smoke (or vape) or use lots of perfume, our house won't work. *Due to two flights of stairs with no gates, two fireplaces, and no child locks, our home is not suitable for kids under 2.

Neighbourhood

Our neighborhood is very family friendly and beautiful. It is part of an old farmstead which you can still visit a few blocks away (historic site). There is still a working farm where the community grows organic vegetables and raises chickens and goats; you can visit these too! The oldest barn in Idaho is located on the farm. We have lots of open space with wetlands a block away (you can hear the Red Winged Blackbirds gathering and singing from our house). There is a beautiful creek nearby that flows in the spring and early summer. We also have two community pools (one of them a block away), a BMX bike track, soccer fields, an ultimate frisbee course, a restaurant, coffee shop, library, preschool, med spa, mercantile with basic food items and ice cream, and other small businesses. It's a very walkable and bike-able neighborhood with lots of active families. If you are heading further to the mountains to ski, white water raft, fish, etc., we are on the way there.

Nearest airport

Boise (BOI) has a regional airport and it's about a 30 minute drive from there to our home.

Getting around

There is a restaurant and basic food store within walking/biking distance. To get more substantial groceries, pharmacy, etc, it's about a 10 minute drive down the hill. To get to Downtown Boise, it's about a 20 minute drive.
