The Boardwalk Apartments

Just don’t do it. It’s not even true luxury for the price point. They also charge tenants for power to the common areas of the building.

I recently toured this place and they call themselves a luxury complex. Let me explain how it's not luxury. The majority of their units have plastic shower/tub inserts (no tile), formica countertops, chunky heavy plastic apartment grade blinds with pull strings, small washer and dryer units that do not look big enough to fit a bed comforter, and black appliances. I found out that only select units have what they call premium finishes. Seems a little deceiving to advertise as a luxury community... when the majority of your units are basic. During my tour I could hear the people in the unit above walking around. I know it's a new complex and looks super flashy from the outside, it grabbed my attention for sure! But, it's definitely not luxury and not worth the 'luxury' price tag and fees they charge. Coming from out of state, I was quite shocked by their rates considering the aren't even in Boise or downtown. You can find better deals in downtown Boise, with more space, tile, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances and oversized washer and dryers with better window finishings and a cheaper price tag. I'm glad I kept my options open and didn't move there. Read More

If you’re happy to pay an arm and a leg to live here then maybe it’s the place for you. While they say luxury they really mean expensive. They will charge you for ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING they can. Not only does it have so many rules that you feel you’re living in your parents home, but the parking here is a total joke. I could go on and on with reasons why not to move here. Management just sees you as a dollar sign.

This property is unlike any other in the area. After touring other downtown Boise apartments, there was no question that The Boardwalk's future amenities, location, views, etc. were the best option for me.

I recently sold my house and wanted to simplify my life by living on the river. I’m not disappointed, staff is polite, professional and communicative. The apartments themselves are nice, you never hear your neighbors, any noise from busy streets and everyone I’ve met is super friendly. Six weeks later, this move was the right choice.
