Netflix did not work at all (said household is not on this account). Was too late to bother the host once we realized it and that was the only night we had extra time to watch a movie. Be careful of irregular walkway in front and the three legged thorns were all over the driveway. Otherwise, small kindof stuffy place despite the ac. Overall, relatively easy to get to, plenty of parking and the place was clean. 10-15 minute drive to fairgrounds.

In town for a few days with my 2 sons to visit friends. The place was very cute, super comfy for the 3 of us. The location was great; right by a nice park and easy to get to all the places we were going.

5 days

Boise was one of our longest stops while traveling. The cottage was much better than a hotel as we were traveling with a dog. We spent majority of our time visiting with family and friends not too far from the cottage. It was nice to come back and relax.

Family Visit

We came to visit family. This home is located such that it was an easy drive to visit them. Very close to the airport—about 10 minutes. King bed is very comfy. Backyard space was nice and private. Jennifer was very communicative and responded quickly. We enjoyed our time in this home.

We are repeat guests as this quaint cute little place has all we need for comfort! Bedding is quality as is the bathroom towels and provided products like paper towels, toilet paper and , yes, coffee!!! Works for us since we are coming and going from NV checking in on parents. Love it that our 10 yr old lab is also welcome!! Thank you again, Jenn, for the quick replies to our requests for accomodations!

Great place, bigger than expected

Had a great stay here, two adults and two kids. They still have the pull out couch and the Murphy bed plus king bed in the bedroom so each kid had a bed. Great kitchen (although we were only here one full day and didn’t end up cooking) including a nice spice rack. 9 year old played with the ax throwing game. We walked to the park where there is a skate park, dog park, splash pad, and amazing giant playground. HVAC works great, we were here in February so needed heat. Will be back!

Pet Friendly

The place is a step back in time, with new flooring, We arrived after dark in a rainstorm and were glad to have shelter. We are not pet people, but I did not expect that much dog hair all over the house. We problem solved and used the pet friendly washer to get the dog hair out of our clothing, and the Robot floor cleaner to sweep the floors. The owners have been notified. I would have loved to give the place a perfect score. The owners were easy to contact and responded quickly to questions. It is more spacious than the pictures depict with good Wi-Fi. The neighborhood is quiet and easily accessible. Very Light traffic area. I would recommend the place to pet lovers.

Nice Cottage

We were pleasantly surprised that the pictures represented the condition of the cottage correctly. It was very comfortable. We would suggest that the washer be cleaned and sterilized and the dryer lint tray be checked after each visitor. There was dog hair around the lid of the washer and the lint tray was packed. Also, leave better instructions on how to work the TV. Not everyone knows how to work such a complicated system. It would have been nice to have more coffee available and a box of kleenex. Just an FYI for the host, overall it worked great for us.

Location is excellent! We were 15-20 minutes from seemingly everything which was super helpful. Bed was very comfortable and the space was fine for just a couple. They had an abundance of cookware and utensils, which is nice of you plan to cook meals there. Having access to the laundry was a big blessing so we could wash everything before going home.
