Looking at probably renting an apartment for our 1st year in the area. Can anyone share a recommendation for the Boise/Meridian/Eagle area. Would prefer at least a 2 bedroom and MUST be pet friendly. Possible would consider a duplex also. Rent of maybe $850 or less. Maybe can go up a little on that but would prefer to keep it below.

Thanks!

Central Boise - The Springs of Royal Oakes is a good one.

Reflexions at River's Edge ( Reflections at Rivers Edge Apartments )is a nice complex right next to the river, greenbelt and new whitewater park with easy freeway access to get anywhere. I have a friend who lives there and loves it--she was quite reluctant to move into an apartment after a divorce but she has found that the location suits her perfectly plus she has a lake view and walks on the greenbelt every day. I recently priced out a one bedroom for a client and they were at $610/month so I would think a 2 bedroom would be in your price range. They were almost sold out of units that were coming up for the beginning of September and that was the first week of August so you'll want to contact them in advance. Good luck!

Did you end up choosing Reflections? We are relocating to Boise soon and are considering that complex.

Thanks!

NOT STONERIDGE.
I live there now. And let me tell you about just today.

First day of low 70 temps, couldnt wait to open my windows and get some fresh air. I walk outside on my balcony and there are people setting up a children's bday party in my "front yard" OK, call me a b**** or whatever, but I dont like kids. Theyre noisy and they bother me. Now I find out a 3 yr old's bday party is literally right under my windows? There was like 20 people complete with pinata. Ok, so that was bad.
Then...there is a neighbor who has 2 dogs and leaves one out on his balcony all the time. I feel bad for the dog, but it barks and barks, constantly. So today the poor dog was out there all day, and was just brought in around 10pm. I have a dog and every time that poor dog barks, mine and everyone else's dog starts to join in as well.

Yea, I know I sound like the cranky old woman. Maybe I am, but I just like peace and quiet. This is definitely the loudest place I have ever lived in

I made one trip to Boise to find a place to live. Took about a day and a half to find a place I liked. I did initial paperwork with the property management company, got an approval. After that, leases and everything was handled via email. They even left the house key in a lock box on the door and gave me a code to share with my moving company. My moving company arrived a week before I did. They were able to come in, leave my stuff (Even hung the clothes in the closet) and then left the key in the lock box. Oh and turned on the heat. When my husband and I arrived around 8pm the night before Thanksgiving all we had to do was walk in, pull sheets out of a box, make the bed and go to sleep.

We use Residential Property Management on Ustick. They did a few quirky things but overall I was very pleased with with them. Good luck.
