We love to travel! Our mission is to travel light, have fun, try everything and go everywhere. To achieve this adventurous goal we build custom homes. Our company, Mountain Oasis Homes, Inc. is based in beautiful Hope, Idaho. Ian and I built 6 homes as owner builders (in Hawaii and Idaho) before we quit our day jobs and created Mountain Oasis Homes. Currently (May 2023) we’ve built 9 homes and have just begun the adventure of hosting our homes for short term rentals!
Credit Cards Are The Ticket For Miles
From the very first home in Hawaii we’ve played the credit card game, putting all our expenses on credit cards that earned miles and paying them off each month so we never accrued interest. We also keep an eye out for sign on bonuses and cancel cards while keeping our points. Ian boasts about only paying for a couple flights during our 6 month, 15 country trip with over 30 flights in the winter of 2017-2018. I also have the most generous parents who surprise us with occasional family trips to awesome places like Egypt and Antarctica. Spoiled? Well, yes. Grateful too!







Our 140 Astilbe Lane house (that we completed in 2018) is now available to rent! We’ve decorated it with souvenirs from our travels, including a gorgeous Turkish chandelier we bought in Istanbul.

We love to travel and we also love to work for ourselves. Now we’ve added short term rental hosting to our life adventure. We’re looking forward to hosting people from all over the world and giving them the same hospitality that we’ve received!
