Great location!

This is a lovely old home in a quiet and pretty neighborhood. The proximity to the track at Boise High was a lot of fun on a warm summer evening.

Franklin House

The house was great. The neighborhood was quiet and walkable to everything. The house was loaded with character and met all of our needs. Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful house for 4 people, roomy and nicely decorated. Many amenities included such as coffee, bathroom shampoo and toothbrushes, and a great kitchen fully stocked with dishes, pots and pans, coffee makers, etc. Our only drawback was the shower which was in a converted claw bathtub (very contemporary with the house) but difficult to negotiate). We did enjoy our stay!!!

We had a great visit and appreciated all the amenities at this house! They thought of everything and were very easy to reach. I would highly recommend this property. Easy to walk downtown and centrally located. We were 2 familes with 4 kids ranging 3 to 9.
