Riverside Retreat - Luxury Living Steps From the Pool, Boise River & Greenbelt

Another great stay here. Thanks!

We recently stayed at this property (April 2026) and found it to be convenient, quiet, and spacious. It was suitable for our needs and was slightly off the beaten path as well, yet still close enough to all of the major events going on nearby. The property is just steps to the River, which made walks and time outdoors so enjoyable - no need to drive anywhere to be in nature. The surrounding area is new and there is construction going on. This was not a bother to us and you cannot hear it. It will be nice to see what other shops, restaurants and offerings guests can soon walk to. One thing I would caution, if not realized, is that there are quite a few stairs. If in reasonable health and without small babies, it’s completely fine. We were bummed that the pool was not open, but this will be a great amenity when it does finally open. You can see the pool from the front door. There is garage parking, and if your vehicle does not fit, there is plenty of parking nearby. No need to trek very far at all. I also pay attention to and do my research on the safety of an area. This is really a safe environment. Chelsea was also easy to communicate with.

Overall this is a really nice 3 story townhome in the Barber Valley Area with a great location to the greenbelt, park, Harris Ranch, restaurants, coffee, and not far from Albertsons and “usual” establishments. Easy to walk from one place to the other. The 2nd floor of the Townhome is accommodated nicely with a large kitchen table for family to visit, beautiful kitchen layout, plenty of spices, appliances, dinnerware, lots of storage (didn’t need it), huge pantry, and a decent family room (one orange cloth sectional sofa, TV in mid room wall unit). Floor 3 has 2 bedrooms but Master has two doubles so primary slept in guest room. The 1st floor is the front door and garage entry leading into a small mudroom & closet. Again, overall a nice unit which will meet the needs of the majority of renters. A few considerations for the minority: there are two sets of 17 stairs to get to 2nd & 3rd floors. So the elderly with mobility issues should probably pass. Also bringing in groceries, suitcases and the like was a bit of a workout-great for those in good shape! The Nest thermostat was a challenge to figure out, but had it adjusted on 2nd day. The HOA apparently requires garbage cans to stay in garage, but the smell wafted into the mudroom so there was “mustiness” upon exiting. Suggest leaving the garage open as much as possible. Other minor issues: garage door handle sharp-cut arm, external garage lights out, tv remote found under couch, & no instructions for ice maker, Nest, etc.

Very clean, comfortable, quiet home in a great location. I love staying here!
