Boise
is the capital of and the most populous city in Idaho. Boise is located on
the Boise River in the southwest portion of Idaho. If you love outdoor
activities there is a lot to do here.
You can even surf.
After reading about all of its great retirement attributes, I had to check it out. Boise offers great quality of life, excellent medical, lower taxes and low housing prices. Even though Boise is a fabulous spot, it wasn't perfect for me.
We stayed at the Riverside RV Park
6000 N Glenwood St.
Boise, ID. 83714
Although, it's address says Boise the actual address is in Garden City.
Amenities include;
Full hookups
Big Rig Friendly
Large sites w/large area for tow car
Wi-Fi
Picnic tables
Hard packed gravel
Dogs welcome (Best rules ever-"Be Courteous")
This is a no-frills RV park with a great location. It is mostly hard packed gravel with some cement sidewalks. The cement sidewalks are not continuous, so from time to time you will have to travel on the gravel. The Boise River Walk runs right along side the park. The path is a little rough near Riverside RV Park but, the closer you get to Boise the better it gets. If you have any mobility issues I recommend using a scooter or power wheelchair. The Riverside RV Park entrance is right behind the fairgrounds. While we were there I saw signs for horse shows, car racing and even minor league baseball. There is always something going on so make sure you check it out.
I
can't let a blog entry go by without mentioning food. I don't claim this to the best but, If you're in the mood for a hamburger and
french fries I found this…
