Tucked into the scenic Boise foothills, our home is part of a truly unique community that blends a love of the outdoors with a welcoming, small-town feel. We've created multiple outdoor living spaces designed for relaxing, dining, and soaking up the fresh Idaho air. I’ve infused our home with character, comfort, and a touch of playfulness. Mixing natural textures, thoughtful details, and warm, inviting style. It’s a space that feels both curated and lived-in, perfect for anyone who appreciates a home with heart and a deep connection to its surroundings.
Hidden Springs is more than just a neighborhood—it’s a lifestyle. You'll find winding trails and spaces designed to bring people together. Our days often start with a walk or bike ride along peaceful paths, crossing little bridges, looking for the owls and deer. The neighborhood hub offers a cozy coffee shop, a restaurant and wine bar, a charming local Mercantile for basic groceries or snacks, and a few unexpected gems like a library and med spa all just minutes from our doorstep. There’s a natural rhythm here: kids gather at the pool or BMX track, neighbors meet for live music on the lawn, and the foothills invite exploration in every season. Whether you're enjoying the quiet beauty of a creek in early summer or heading out for a mountain adventure, this is a place where life feels grounded, active, and connected. We are only 20 minutes from downtown Boise.
Boise is ... City, Nature, and Adventure
If Portland and Salt Lake City had a baby, it would be Boise: artsy, lively, and surrounded by incredible outdoors. Downtown Boise is clean, cute, and full of character, cafes, boutique shops, and a vibrant nightlife all within walking distance. Enjoy biking the Boise River Greenbelt, seasonal farmers markets, and cultural spots like the Old Idaho Penitentiary or the state capital.
This is just the basics of Boise, Idaho! Known worldwide for potatoes, Boise surprises visitors with its four seasons, varied landscapes, and stunning typography. Adventure is everywhere: float the Boise or Payette River, hike the foothills, or catch a live show under the stars at the Garden Valley Outdoor Theater just an hour away.
Within 2–2.5 hours, enjoy natural hot springs like Idaho City and Kirkham hot springs plus escapes to McCall, Bruneau Sand Dunes, and scenic mountain rivers. There’s so much more to share—Boise is the perfect mix of urban charm, culture, and breathtaking nature!
