About this property

Paradise on the Boise River


If you are looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life, the Boise River Retreat is a beautiful luxury vacation home located in Featherville, Idaho, just a two hour drive between the Boise Airport and the Sun Valley Airport, on the banks of the Boise River. Listen to the sounds of the river just outside your window, watch the quiet starry nights, or enjoy the silent snow falling. This remote vacation home is surrounded by 15,000 square feet of rolling lawn up to the river's edge. After a day of fishing, boating, river rafting or motorcycle riding, enjoy cool summer breezes at our mountain vacation home while roasting marshmallows in the outdoor firepit or head to the natural hot springs just 5 miles downriver. When winter snow covers the ground, fire up your snowmobiles and hit the gateway to the Trinities, 5 minutes from our door. No Matter the season, this mountain vacation rental is perfect for your group. Complete privacy for a small group or a family reunion.

Amazing Mountain Getaway
This home was the perfect setting for our family to celebrate my sister’s birthday. We really enjoyed the swimming hole along the edge of the river as well as the fire pit for s’mores each night. This is a beautiful, comfortable home that I would happily stay at again.

Definitely Paradise on the Boise River
Our stay was absolutely delightful. The home was well stocked, spacious, and clean. We enjoyed meals and time together in the lovely kitchen and great room. Our kids enjoyed the woods, the playset, and most of all the pooled off portion of the river. I think they would have stayed in the river all day if they could. There just wasn't enough time in the day to get all our playing in! The sound of the river was so peaceful and relaxing and the evenings were cool and offered respite from the warm days. The location was perfect. We rode to Trinity Lakes on the ATVs, visited the hot springs, made a trip to Pine, and bought ice cream in Featherville. We couldn't have asked for any better accommodations. Thank you Sheri! We definitely would enjoy a return visit!

About the host

Hosted by Sheri Freer

Host profile image
Hello - We are Mike and Sheri Freer. We grew up in Flagstaff , Arizona and enjoyed 34 years there. Mike grew up spending his childhood summers in Featherville with his siblings and cousins every year. We decided to make the change and moved our four children to Featherville in 2006. Mike built our home and we lived there for 4 years while our children were still young. Those are precious years to our family. When our oldest needed to go to high school we moved to Mountain Home. We currently reside here in Mountain Home and escape to Featherville as often as possible. It is peaceful and quiet and more fun than anywhere else in the world. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

This is a great property to spend your winter or summer vacation. It is away from the crowds and allows you time to reconnect with your family and friends. We found that 2-3 families really can enjoy it together. It will accomodate everyones wants in a vacation. Those who want to read quietly by the river or the fire can enjoy that while the others play outside with many different outdoor activities. The house is also set up in a way that those who want to watch a movie and/or play games(i.e. kids) can be closed off by a door while the others(adults) can enjoy a quiet conversation downstairs by the fire or on the patio.
