Garden City explicitly allows STRs with a clear, defined process and moderate costs ($100 base + $140 per unit, Building and Fire inspections, City Council approval) but no stated caps. The licensing, inspections, and ongoing compliance requirements are manageable and predictable, with city tone supportive and process well-documented.

Garden City is a city in Ada County, Idaho. The population was 12,316 at the time of the 2020 census. Garden City is nearly surrounded by Boise but retains a separate municipal government.
