My daughter and I stayed at this adorable cottage the night before our Boise State college tour! The host was very prompt and answering any questions we had, the parking was very convenient and simple and when we walked in, it was such a warm invite! The most adorable decor, warm colors and lighting. The living room and kitchen were very comfortable, even though everything is so cozy! The bed was adorable and very comfortable, and the bathroom was spacious. I would definitely recommend staying here again. Very comfortable and a pleasurable stay!

Excellent location. Quiet. Lovely and cozy cottage. Beautifully appointed. Was thrilled with everything. I will stay again should I travel to Boise.I would suggest a choice of pillow firmness. The bed pillows were on the very firm side.

The cottage was cozy, quiet & beautifully decorated. Conveniently located close to BSU & downtown Boise. Comfortable bed & lots of pillows and blankets. The TV was great but only had streaming services so we were unable to watch the Mariners playoff game or BSU football game on live TV, so we had to watch it on our phone instead. Other than that our stay was great!

Unexpected awsomness

This was the highlight of my fast trip. Shelbys cottage is full of incredibly thoughtfull convies, treats, and wounderfully designed like a comfy magazine. The kitchen had some of the little things id forgot to bring. Clean, stocked, just like a private hotel. Things to note, read instructions on how to get there carfully cause gps messed up and took me close but not there. Lucky shelby left instructions. Door key was easy to use, i only wish there had been one of those hotel security latches too. But its a safe neighborhood. Im parinoid. Thoughtfully carring about every detail is how this place was. To the little light left on, to the temp set at 70, to the convient table on the patio i could set my stuff on while opening the door. Not to mention the chips and candy, tea and chilled water. I loved it. It was so nice to have as a none coffee drinker. And i had been so hungery getting off the road, it was enough to get me settled. Outlets were easy to find for charging. So much thought and care was put in. The place could have had pealing paint and been old and the service alone would have been wounderful. As it it, it was a beauitifully decorated private nook of home away from homeThank you.

Fantastic Cottage!

We absolutely loved our stay at this cottage! The host left treats for us and also put together a very handy booklet with restaurants and points of interest. Had its own designated parking spot at the property, Close to downtown, Cute decor throughout the home, We will definitely stay here again. Check in and check out was smooth.
