Welcome to your home away from home in Boise!
This recently renovated 1-bedroom duplex offers a comfortable and convenient stay, just minutes from all the city has to offer. You'll appreciate the modern touches like hardwood floors, butcher block countertops, and stainless-steel appliances. The cozy living space includes a large bedroom with a king-sized bed, a bright galley-style kitchen, a dining area for four, and a living room with a sectional sofa and smart TV.

Please note that while the neighborhood is safe and clean, it is currently undergoing gentrification and has a mix of housing types. The road can be busy with some traffic noise, including occasional sirens from a nearby fire station. Additionally, there is a cell tower next door, which may not be aesthetically pleasing.
We hope you have a wonderful stay in Boise!

Very well-appointed and well-kept place. We appreciated the comfortable king bed, storage options for a longer stay, comfortable living room and dining room, and kitchen with all the amenities we needed.
We had a great stay over the holiday while in town visiting family. This adorable house had everything you could need, was comfortable, clean and cozy! Will definitely stay again.
We had a wonderful stay at The Crofty Cottage Bench. The home was sparkling clean and very comfortable! A perfect location and loved the nearby bakery for morning treats.When we return to Boise we will be booking a stay there once again.
I will just say that this property was CLEAN. The decor was very simple and very tasteful. Although I only cooked one meal, the kitchen was very well appointed and had everything a guest would need to prep any kind of meal. I only spent two nights in a quick work trip so I didn’t really get a chance to settle in. The porch and small yard are very comfortable and private. This property will be on the top of my search list for the next trip. Location is perfect for me. Quick drive to the job and walking distance to the Overland Bar and Panda Garden. (I’m a working class stiff…. Don’t need “fancy”).

We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay and discovered the Overland Bar. It’s truly a Boise gem and the perfect spot to wind down at the end of the day in a classic neighborhood pub atmosphere. You are Welcome back anytime!
Perfect little cottage in a great location. Backed off a busy street with off street parking. Clean, remodeled and very comfortable bed. Rooms are good sized. It’s a perfect little place to stay.
The host was excellent. Communication was timely. The house was perfect for a couple. It was well equipped and had complimentary coffee, tea, & hot chocolate which was a very nice touch. The TV had You Tube TV and Paramount Plus (with no commercials) which was a huge plus. It may have had more premiums channels, we just didn’t check beyond those two.
I wished I had booked a longer stay at this beautiful and conveniently located property! My dog and I both enjoyed the beautiful house and pretty yard.
Great experience for our first non-hotel stay. Property is lovely, with very nice attention to detail and character. It was very clean and had everything you would need for your stay. Great fenced area for the dogs as well. Would happily stay again!
This unit is everything it is advertised to be. The rooms are spacious, the appliances are new, and everything is very well done. The owners had mentioned the possibility of road noise, but we did t find it to be a problem. Very conveniently located, and Sandy was very responsive to communications. We stayed 10 nights in Oct. 2025, and would stay again.
Absolutely lovely home. Very clean! Soaps provided for showers, lifesaver if you forget yours. Coffee provided was great. Super appreciative of the air conditioning! Pet friendly with a cut, private fenced yard. Great location. Host and houskeeping staff are wonderful. I would recommend this to others.
We loved getting to stay at the Crofty Cottage! It made traveling with our two dogs (a miniature dachshund and german shorthair pointer) a breeze! It was such a relief to be able to let both dogs out in the yard and not worry about any escape attempts or having to get them all set up with their harnesses and leashes each day. The house was lovely and a nice place to relax.
The property manager was easy to work with and eager to help. She was quick to respond to questions. The property was clean and the perfect size for me and my husband. If I ever need to visit Boise again, I would absolutely stay there.
Very clean place with simple instructions on everything. Has all the essentials you need. A great place to rest and recharge during my stay here in Boise.
Only had one small issue and that was backing out of driveway since it’s on the corner cars came around pretty quick, but I believe you could park on the street but I didn’t. It was truly a great little home!
I’ve stayed in many places and this one is in top 3. Super cozy with everything (literally everything) one could need for a perfect stay. I wish I had more than one night. Whenever I’m back in Boise, this will be my first pick.
