About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

This is Boise's Gem!

Located just 1/2 mile southwest of BSU and the Morrison Center, Boise's Gem is perfectly situated for exploring Boise. Enjoy a short walk to several restaurants and a quick bike ride to the center of Boise's 25 mile long greenbelt. The home is close to the Historic Train Depot and downtown, offering convenience and charm.

Inside, you’ll find a super clean space with a thoughtfully stocked kitchen and bathroom. Relax with a full cable package on the new 50" QLED smart TV with included Netflix (wires are now hidden in the wall). The quiet neighborhood ensures a peaceful stay, while central air conditioning keeps you comfortable during Boise’s hot summers.

With a private driveway and an electronic smart lock, you’ll have easy, secure access with each guest receiving your own code.

Clean, cozy cottage, quiet and close to downtown
Super cute cottage that was clean, well-stocked, comfortable, close to downtown, yet quiet. Hosts were very communicative and seem to think of everything you might need when visiting. Kitchen is well-stocked with the basics and there are some toiletries and other things you might need in the bathroom. We would definitely stay here again when we return to the area!

The Gem was a great location to visit our son at BSU! So close to downtown, freeways, stores, and the airport. The house was very comfortable and had lots of extra amenities that other rentals don’t often have. We will definitely stay again!
