On unincorporated Ada County streets, motor homes, travel trailers and camp trailers may be parked no more than 72 hours, whether or not attached to a tow vehicle. On residential lots, RVs and boats are generally stored on the owner's property; inside city limits (Boise, Meridian, Eagle) the city's own
Ada County Code 6-5-3 (Parking of Vehicles in Residential Areas) limits RVs, travel trailers and camp trailers to a 72-hour maximum on public streets in unincorporated residential areas, irrespective of whether they are attached to a motorized vehicle, and caps any vehicle at 7 continuous days on those streets. Storing an RV or boat on your own lot is treated as an accessory use under Title 8 zoning; it must not become an accumulation of junk (8-3-9) or an inoperable-vehicle nuisance (8-4-8). Homeowner associations and city codes may impose stricter screening or prohibition, so check your jurisdiction and CC&Rs.
Handled by Ada County Sheriff as a code/parking violation; vehicles left beyond the limit may be tagged, cited, and towed at the owner's expense.
