About this property
#HabitueHomes - Hand House - Hot Tub! 3 Floors!
Hot tub, fire pit, corn hole, ping-pong table, washer/dryer, full-size refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, Wifi, 55" TV, Apple TV + Roku for easy streaming of your favorites (note: no cable), iron, ironing board, blow dryers and luggage racks make this a great place to hang your hat in Boise for business or pleasure. Most furnishings are new as of 2017 including beds, rugs, dining table, sofa and chairs. There are a few fun vintage pieces here and there.
A quick walk to great coffee shops, restaurants and retail in Hyde Park - Hyde Perk is our favorite for breakfast/coffee and Hyde House for lunch and dinner. If you like "Bessie" (cow art in kitchen) Hyde and Seek Gift Shop is the place to go -- a wonderland of great gifts! Longer walk or a short 5 min rideshare gets you to downtown Boise and all it has to offer! Don't miss the Saturday Farmer's Market! 2,546 sq ft in total space so guests have lots of room to spread out. Note that most of the home has been updated while still maintaining the original charm of this 1937 home. Our past guests have really enjoyed their stay - and especially like the heated bathroom floors in two of the three bathrooms, cozy beds/linens and fun bright art - we hope you will too!
The gateway to the Boise foothills, North End is renowned for its historic homes, tree-lined streets, relaxed culture and dozens of parks. Stroll to great coffee shops, restaurants, and retail in Hyde Park. Walk, bike, or drive in a few minutes to downtown.

An unplanned late check out really affects our cleaner's schedule. If you do not arrange a late checkout in advance, there is a $55 fee. If you do not checkout by noon, you will be charged an additional night's stay. *This is a non-smoking house. $500 smoke mitigation fee will apply if smoking of any variety is found. *Furniture should not be moved without prior approval *Please remove shoes when entering the home to protect the flooring. *1-2 well behaved dogs are allowed. There is a pet servicing fee of $45/pet. This is a one time charge that will be requested via the Airbnb resolution center after you have booked. Please remove any dog droppings and dog hair before checking out. If pet hair or waste causes additional cleaning expense the expense will be billed to you. If discovered any unauthorized pets will need to be immediately removed and a pet mitigation charge of $500 will apply. *Events (like a baby shower, reception, birthday party, etc) are not allowed. Unauthorized events will be subject to a minimum charge of $1500. Additional charges for damage may also apply. *Friendly reminder to please use the provided black towel for face make-up. So many of our towels and pillowcases are stained by oil based make-up and our professional laundry service can't even bust these stains. We appreciate you helping us conserve our linens. *Sometimes it's hard to know what sound level is too much so we use a noise monitoring device. It won't invade your privacy because it does NOT record actual sounds or conversations, it only monitors the ambient noise level (measured in decibels). If it goes off, it gives us a chance to warn you that your sound level is such that it could upset our neighbors. *There is also a Ring camera system to monitor the outside of the home. One Ring doorbell with additional cameras monitoring the backyard, camera and light by the kitchen door and a camera and light over the garage door looking over the street. *If a failure to follow the house rules impacts the next guest's stay and causes us to need to discount or refund that next guest you agree to be responsible for the resulting cost.

We came to Boise for a couple days for Thanksgiving and had the greatest time! The location for this house was perfect and we had all the space we could have needed! Highly recommend!!
My family came to watch my nephew play football at BSU! The house was perfect for us and was wonderful. Very clean and updated in a great neighborhood! Definitely would stay here again. Everything was perfect including a BSU victory!
Our group/friends have stayed in several VRBO's this was by far the best. Finding 3 nice roomy bedrooms is hard, and this place hit it out of the park. Everything was wonderful. And every thing work perfectly.
We truly enjoyed our stay at this little house The three separate living spaces were perfect for our family! The master suite upstairs is luxurious! The main floor has a lovely layout and the basement does not feel like a basement! We loved the artwork in the home and having the hot tub and ping pong table was a lot of fun.
My family loved this charming, clean, spacious, fun little home. It was stocked with everything we needed, central to all of our plans (exploring Eagle, Meridian and Boise) and even had entertainment like a ping pong table and spa. The property management team was also very helpful and made check-in and out a breeze. We would definitely book through Habitue Homes again!
This home has it all! We were a group of 8 women and this property was such a fabulous stay. Fall in Boise in the North end is the only way to go. We walked to Camels back Park, Hyde Park and Harrison Blvd to view the Halloween decorations. We enjoyed the hot tub and the fire pit. Don’t hesitate to choose this property!!
Everything we could have wanted was provided and easily accessed. The neighborhood was charming and friendly with parks, shops and even electric scooters nearby. The agents who were taking care of the property were always available and responsive. We would definitely recommend both the company and the home.
Our family stayed in Boise for 8 days during Thanksgiving and this house was the perfect spot to call home! It is so clean and so inviting. Totally stocked with everything you will need. We had two adults and their baby downstairs and they loved all the space to themselves. Our younger daughter has the main floor and my husband and I got the third floor master suite to spread out. The main living area and dining area were perfect to come together to watch TV, hang out and eat meals but we also had plenty of room to branch off if we needed it.
We loved walking to the coffee shop and stores as well as Camels Back park. We got to town a little earlier than expected and really needed to drop off our stuff so we could pick other family up when their flight got in; the owner was so kind and allowed us to put our luggage in the garage/game room until check in time, we really appreciated the courtesy.
Neighbors are super kind and such a safe neighborhood you can’t go wrong going for walks and hanging out visiting
We plan to come back next Thanksgiving and hope this house is available
Thank you for your hospitality

Great house had everything my family needed and so much more. Very clean, well stocked, great location, easy parking, and very responsive property management. We would definitely recommend and stay again.
This home is adorable and roomy! The house is well stocked with everything you will need during your stay. The North End location is wonderful, located near Hyde Park shops and restaurants and close to downtown Boise. We would definitely stay here again.
This property was perfect for us traveling with our adult children! Immaculate property with all of the comforts of home and plenty of space for everyone's needs. The neighborhood is charming and the location has great walkability to local parks and restaurants! Definitely family friendly for young and old!
This beautiful, cozy home was perfect for our family. The house was clean and well-equipped with all the necessities. We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub and the three king rooms! The location made it easy to get around town and walk to shops and restaurants.
Charming North End home in nice location. Plenty of room to spread out and had nicely stocked kitchen. Check-in/check-out easy. My husband and I would stay here again!
