Elegance in the Country



Thank you for considering Fourth Street Gardens as a location for your event. We are located near Boise Idaho in the Emmett Valley.

If you choose to use our property, you will be expected to comply with the following rules and guidelines to ensure that we can continue to allow its use. These rules will be considered part of the contract, so please read carefully before deciding to commit to this contract. Failure to follow the rules and guidelines could result in the forfeiture of your damage deposit.
