Quiet Private Suite in SW Boise close to Airport

KathyRating, 5 stars3 days ago
Janelle’s guest suite is a private, quiet, spacious and lovely home away from home. It is located in a safe and quiet neighborhood very close to the various places we like to visit in Boise. It is even lovelier than the photos! And the spa-like bathroom with large soaking tub and walk-in shower were divine! Even though we got in late and left early we made sure to relax and enjoy these amenities. However, this would still be a top stay for us even if we didn’t use them, as the entire suite is so very lovely and relaxing! Also Janelle is a very kind host. She came out to greet us on our arrival and gave us suggestions for places to grab a late dinner. She was responsive and proactive during the entire process leading up to our arrival and her suite would have been super easy to enter even if she hadn’t greeted us thanks to her excellent communication. We will absolutely book Janelle’s guest suite on our next trip to Idaho.

NinaRating, 5 stars5 days ago
I fully enjoyed staying at maggie‘s Airbnb. The location was very quiet which I appreciated the aesthetics of the little cottage above. The garage were absolutely lovely. The place was clean and very comfortable. It was a pleasure to communicate with Maggie. I recommend this Airbnb and would stay there again if I were to be in Boise.

Private Boise Sunset Studio

TimothyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This is a great spot for one to two people. Had all your needs and is quiet and secluded without being far from downtown. The neighborhood was nice to walk our dog through although there aren’t a lot of sidewalks in that area. A peaceful spot with friendly and considerate hosts.

The A-Frame at Wilderness Ranch

TiffanyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This place is pure magic. It’s unassuming from the outside, but inside, it’s a total gem with plenty of space to relax and recharge. It offers the perfect opportunity to unplug—but if you need a change of scenery while you work, the WiFi is solid! It truly feels like a home away from home. The hosts have thought of everything: extra towels placed thoughtfully around the house, firewood, S'more supplies, coffee and sugar, condiments, and even snacks for the kiddos. It’s rare to find a place that allows pets, but we brought our three fur babies with no trouble at all! Karyl and Buck are amazing. We asked if there was a patio umbrella, and within an hour—boom, delivered! I’ve stayed at a lot of Air B&B's in my day, and this one is easily one of my favorites. Book it. You won’t regret it!

Cottage on the Snake River

LissaRating, 5 stars3 days ago
What a cute little cabin! It’s private, neat, cool, cozy and safe, so we all slept and lounged very well! Beautiful view and surroundings. Bonus: We were even greeted by the sweetest kitty and her friend, a big awesome toad! We had a lovely visit, and so did our pups! Oh, and we fell in love with the large walk-in closet in the front bedroom- that’s where our bags went, sooo ideal! I just wish I could handle the random times we’d get a little sulfur-y water from the faucets. Because of this though, they provide a water cooler in the cabin, which I find very wise! Enjoy, it’s a homey lil spot with a stunning view! I would definitely come back!

Cheerful 2 bedroom 1 and a half bath cottage.

AndresRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Natasha is an amazing host and every little detail was covered! The battery low indicator alerted for the front door was address right away. The space was perfect for my son and I and the backyard was very cute! Plenty of parks within walking distance to the home as well! As a former resident in the Boise area I didn’t have a need for local eateries. Natasha still had great suggestions when it came to it though! Home truly was spotless and kitchen had all the essentials for making meals! I look forward to future bookings here! Thank you again

Pink Guest House Cottage with Private Entrance!

José ManuelRating, 5 stars11 months ago
We have been 40 days staying in this beautiful guest house and it has been all positive. From the first contact we had an exquisite treatment by Sherry, Jaquie and Leah, everything has been kindness and offer. The house is located a few meters from the center and at the same time close to the mountain. Ideal for any kind of plan. Recommended without any doubt.

Great quiet amazing neighborhood! Loved all the surroundings of beautiful older homes & pristine yards. Felt very safe staying there by myself. Very comfy beds, everything you need to feel at home & lovely backyard area with lots of covered seating. I didn’t use because of time but I would have otherwise. Overall a great place to stay! I would choose Helen’s place next time I’m in town!

What a wonderful visit in Boise! Andrea's place was great- very private, cozy and comfortable. The location was perfect- 1 block from a great park and running trails in the foothills and in the opposite direction- the quaint Hyde park district for great coffee shops and brew pubs. Andrea was very responsive. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks Andrea.

All About Boise

Boise, known as the City of Trees thanks to its abundance of native cottonwoods, is Idaho’s capital and largest city. Nestled beside the Boise Foothills, a low mountain ridge that separates the valley from the Boise Mountains, the city offers you the chance to get lost in nature without straying too far from urban comforts. The nearby Bogus Basin, a mountain recreation center and ski resort, offers a wide range of outdoor activities, like hiking, climbing, and skiing and snowboarding during the snowy winter months.

Downtown Boise hugs the banks of the Boise River and is home to historical buildings, colorful street art, botanical gardens, restaurants, and more than a dozen craft breweries. The Basque Block celebrates the area’s Spanish culture, and the beloved Hyde Park neighborhood houses shops selling locally made goods surrounded by Queen Anne Victorian homes.

Outside the city, you’ll find the Snake River Wine Valley, home to nearly two dozen wineries. You can enjoy wine tastings here or eat alfresco meals with picture-perfect mountain views and experience live music during the warmer months.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Boise

Boise’s semi-arid climate has four distinct seasons, and there’s never a shortage of natural beauty to enjoy. Summer temperatures can climb quite high, but a lack of humidity brings cool evenings, so it’s best to pack a jacket even in July. One of the biggest summer events is a big music festival that takes place in late June. Over Labor Day weekend, you can attend the art museum’s annual Art in the Park festival, where more than 250 artists and vendors set up booths to sell jewelry, paintings, and other handmade goods. Autumn brings comfortable and breezy weather, golden foliage, and the opportunity to attend September’s Hyde Park Street Fair in the historic North End. Winters are cold and relatively snowy, and you can try snowshoeing in the local parks or check out the indoor holiday markets. Spring brings warm days and beautiful blooms at the Idaho Botanical Garden.


Top things to do in Boise

Boise Art Museum

Boise Art Museum’s permanent collection features around 4,000 works of art, including paintings, photographs, sculptures, textiles, drawings, and video. In the ARTexperience Gallery, you’ll find nontraditional media, such as electronic parts, styrofoam, buttons, or bones. The museum is located at Julia Davis Park, the city’s oldest park, which also houses the Idaho Historical Museum and a rose garden.

Camel’s Back Park & Reserve

Camel’s Back Park puts the beauty of the Boise foothills squarely within reach. The park spans 11 acres, and an additional reserve connected to it covers 63 acres. You can hop on one of the well-maintained trails to go hiking or mountain biking, or take advantage of the tennis courts, beach volleyball courts, playground, or soccer fields. Many of Boise’s events, including the Hyde Park Street Fair, take place at the park.

Basque Block

Immigrants from Spain’s Basque region have called this area home since the early 1800s. In the Basque Block, you’ll find a cultural center, specialty restaurants that serve chorizo, paella, or traditional pintxos (Basque tapas), and the Basque Mural that features lively Oinkari Basque Dancers in traditional garb of long red skirts and arbarka lace shoes. Boise hosts one of the largest Basque festivals here every five years.
