After using the customized 4-digit code for the front door, we saw the house perfectly matched the description. It was spotless, and the lay-out was great. There were two good areas to relax and watch TV, and the layout of the house made it so you wouldn't disturb anyone sleeping. The kitchen was well equipped with new dishes, with Jana even providing a nice selection of K-Cups for the Keurig. It was really nice having a house with new towels, laundry detergent, dish detergent, soap and shampoo. Jana quickly answered a few questions we had.
The house was dead quiet at night, and was close to grocery stores and the excellent Club Apple (which is a full fitness center with indoor and heated outdoor pools). Its about a mile from downtown Idaho Falls. As shown, the yard is all grass, but a few lawn chairs are provide in case one wants to sit outside.
We pretty much used this house as a base to see all of the outdoor attractions in the area. Idaho Falls is a great location, as it is two hours from Yellowstone, Grand Teton, and Shoshone Falls, with many spots in between. One thing we took advantage of was watching YouTube videos on the easy to operate smart TV of the places we were going to. From the time we checked in, until we checked out 6 days later, we drove 1,200 miles seeing all of the attractions in the region. Emerson Retreat provided a great house to relax and recharge every night, and to get up and get going for a day of adventure.
