Southwest Boise - Boise, ID Area Guide
Located near the beautiful high desert of the Boise Bench, the Southwest section of Boise gives its dwellers a mix of semi-rural and urban life. Large parts of the area are still loosely populated; and most homes, including rentals, have large plots of land so residents can garden or simply enjoy the outdoors. When the time comes to go to work, commuters hop on nearby I-84 to head into the city. Fortunately, traffic rarely proves a problem in this relaxed and commuter-friendly neighborhood. On the weekends, visit nearby Hillcrest Country Club, where members enjoy top-notch golfing, dining, swimming, and fitness opportunities. For a more rugged adventure, locals head out to the Sawtooth Wilderness to hike, paddle, and climb to a heart's content.
