Boise Remote Stays: A 30-Night Filter Is Not Occupancy 2026

Updated: 9 hours ago

Empty desk in a Boise rental, lodging interior, no people

383 listings, 30.2 percent of 1,268 active rentals, already set a 30-night minimum. Stay is still 6.6 nights.


Typical Boise listings earned about $25,127 last year from 1,268 active rentals, AirROI trailing twelve months from August 2025 through July 2026. The average night was $195. Occupancy was 47.8 percent. Revenue per available night was $94. Year over year is minus 0.3 percent. Active supply moved plus 10.3 percent.


The three strongest city months are June, August, and May. June is the busiest. January is the slowest. Occupancy is weakest in July. Most guests arrive from Boise, then Portland. Stay is 6.6 nights, booked about 42 days ahead.

Frequently Asked Questions

What did a typical Boise rental earn last year?

AirROI's trailing-twelve-month extract from August 2025 through July 2026 shows a typical Boise listing earning about $25,127 across 1,268 active rentals, at an average night of $195 and 47.8 percent occupancy. Year over year revenue is essentially flat, down just 0.3 percent, while active supply grew about 10.3 percent. Those figures describe the city of Boise itself, not Meridian or Eagle.


Is a 30-night minimum the same thing as a filled calendar in Boise?

No, and this is worth being precise about. About 30.2 percent of Boise's 1,268 active listings, 383 of them, already set a 30-night minimum stay, but typical stays still run about 6.6 nights. A 30-night filter is a platform setting, not evidence that a listing is booked solid for a month, so don't market or underwrite it as filled occupancy.


Is a Boise short-term rental license still required in 2026?

No, as of a recent change. On May 12, 2026 Boise City Council repealed the city's STR ordinance to align with Idaho HB 583, and effective May 18, 2026 a City of Boise short-term rental license is no longer required. The city still enforces nuisance, noise, parking, safety, and occupancy rules, so confirm current standing with the Boise City Clerk at 208-972-8150 before advertising.


Which months are strongest for Boise bookings?

June is the busiest month, with August and May also running strong, while January is the slowest and occupancy dips further in July. That pattern fits a market driven by summer outdoor recreation and university-adjacent visits rather than a single event weekend. Pricing should lean into that late-spring-through-summer window. Knowing that shape ahead of time helps set realistic pricing and staffing expectations instead of assuming even demand across all twelve months.


Who actually books a longer Boise stay?

Most guests arrive from within Boise itself, with Portland as a notable secondary source. Typical stays run about 6.6 nights and guests book roughly 42 days ahead, a pattern longer than a typical weekend trip. That length points to a guest with a real reason to be in the city, a campus visit, a hospital stay, or a work assignment, rather than a quick tourist stop.


Is Meridian the same rental market as Boise?

No. Meridian is a separate city with its own figures on this extract, earning about $30,204 from 340 listings, and it shouldn't be folded into Boise's $25,127 figure. Keep Meridian and Boise on separate lines, since each represents a different neighborhood occasion for guests. Treat each place as its own product with its own contact information and its own copy, rather than assuming one town's figure or permit desk covers the other.


Is Eagle the same rental market as Boise?

No. Eagle is its own municipality and represents a different guest occasion than downtown Boise or the North End. Listing copy and permit questions for an Eagle property should be handled separately rather than treated as interchangeable with a Boise city listing. Treat each place as its own product with its own contact information and its own copy, rather than assuming one town's figure or permit desk covers the other.


Should a host hire a manager for Boise and its satellite cities?

Not with a single shared pitch. Professionally managed listings make up about 20.5 percent of the Boise market, and Meridian and Eagle each reward their own separate city-specific copy and management approach rather than one blended service across all three. Treat each municipality as its own product. That's worth revisiting separately for each market rather than assuming one management relationship or one flat fee structure fits every address in a portfolio.


What should a listing actually name instead of a generic urban retreat pitch?

A property should name the specific campus, hospital, or walkable feature it's near rather than relying on vague phrases like a stylish urban retreat. That specificity is what actually attracts the longer-stay guest, someone with a real desk or appointment in Boise, rather than a generic tourist searching broadly. Confirm the current figure directly with the relevant desk before using it in a listing, a pitch, or a buyer packet.


What should a Boise buyer packet actually carry?

A solid packet cites the $25,127 typical-year figure from 1,268 city listings, the 10.3 percent supply growth against essentially flat year-over-year revenue, and the Boise City Clerk's contact information at 208-972-8150 for current 2026 licensing status. It should note June as the peak month and January as the slowest, and it should keep Meridian's and Eagle's separate figures clearly labeled apart from the Boise city number.
