Load morePlaces to rent in Boone, IA, offer a suburban, family-focused alternative to neighboring Ames. When searching for places for rent, Boone renters usually target Downtown, the Story Street corridor, McHose Park neighborhoods, and the rural Boone edge. Many homes for rent in Boone have large floor plans and private yards, making them especially popular with families, pet owners, retirees, and long-term renters looking to grow roots.
US-30 is the city’s major east-west route, connecting to Ames and Cedar Rapids. US-169 serves as the main north-south road to Fort Dodge and Central Iowa. Because local transit is limited, Boone is best for renters with cars. Boone also works well for commuters and renters connected to Iowa State University. With affordable places for rent, Boone offers additional space, parks, and highway access. Overall, Boone rentals offer small-town living in proximity to employment in Ames, Des Moines, and Ankeny.
With older and renovated apartments, condos, and loft-style units, Downtown Boone is a great place to find moderately priced rentals near urban amenities. Rents for the area’s studios, 1-bedrooms, and 2-bedrooms are typically close to Boone’s average $696/mo rate, but newly updated units add a few moderate premium pockets to the inventory. Story Street runs straight through Downtown, making it easy for locals to get around on foot. US-30 also provides a quick highway connection for longer trips. All in all, Downtown is a great option for solo renters and couples who prioritize affordability and walkability.
Rentals in North Boone include older and mid-era houses, apartments, and duplexes with 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom layouts. Rents stay close to the city’s mid-range, with very few luxury units driving prices up. Commuters use US-169 to travel into Central Iowa. With relatively low rent prices and pet-friendly space, North Boone is best for budget-conscious families, long-term renters, and commuters who want multiple bedrooms without high housing costs.
With quick highway access and plenty of new builds, South Boone offers mid-era and new-construction houses, townhomes, and apartments. Many of the area’s suburban-style homes are pet-friendly. The area’s 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom units are priced around Boone’s average rate of $696/mo or above, with some moderate premium properties in the mix. Drivers take US-30 for trips east and west. Families, long-term renters, and multi-generational households who want new, residential rentals with yards are the best fits for this side of the city.
Renters can find apartments, duplexes, and houses along Story Street. With 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, and 3-bedroom units, most properties are older or mid-era builds — keeping rents close to Boone’s usual price point. Because Story Street doubles as US-169, locals have an immediate highway connection. Overall, commuters, couples, and growing families who want to live close to daily conveniences are great fits for Boone’s Story Street corridor.
Known for its larger homes and acreage rentals, the rural edge of Boone offers more land, privacy, and pet-friendly space. 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom rentals include new builds, luxury rentals, and estate-style properties, pushing rents above the city’s $696/mo average rate. US-30 and US-169 lead back to central Boone. Since the area has limited public transit, it’s better for renters with cars. Families, long-term renters, and pet owners who can pay more for larger properties and outdoor access usually put the rural edge of Boone at the top of their list.
Based on 68 active Rentler listings in Boone, IA. Updated daily.
The fastest way to find affordable rentals in Boone is to use Rentler's price filters — browse apartments under $800, under $1,000, or under $1,500 to see current inventory at each threshold. Availability at the lower price tiers changes quickly, so checking back regularly or setting a listing alert is worth doing. Older buildings and units further from city center tend to offer the most room on price.
Yes — Boone has pet-friendly rentals listed on Rentler across apartments, houses, and townhomes. Use the pet-friendly filter to see only properties that accept animals. Policies vary by landlord — breed restrictions, weight limits, and whether a pet deposit or monthly pet rent applies are all worth confirming directly before submitting an application. Large-dog-friendly inventory tends to be stronger in suburban and townhome-style properties than in dense apartment buildings.
Rentler doesn't have a dedicated luxury filter, but you can surface higher-end rentals in Boone by sorting listings by highest price and combining the recent-build and furnished filters. Newer construction properties typically offer the most upscale finishes available — in-unit laundry, stainless appliances, quartz countertops, and on-site amenities like a fitness center or pool.
Rentler focuses on traditional lease rentals rather than short-term or vacation stays. For stays under 3 months, platforms like Furnished Finder or Airbnb may have more options. For 3–6 month furnished leases in Boone, use Rentler's furnished filter, which occasionally includes properties with flexible lease terms. Contact landlords directly to ask about lease length flexibility before applying.
Some landlords on Rentler offer move-in incentives like first month free, reduced security deposits, or waived application fees — especially during slower leasing seasons (October through February). These aren't filterable on Rentler directly. The best approach is to contact landlords on listings you're interested in and ask about current promotions before submitting an application.
Most landlords in Boone require a government-issued photo ID, proof of income (typically 2.5–3x the monthly rent in gross income), recent pay stubs or bank statements, and consent for a background and credit check. Rentler applications are saved to your account so you can submit to multiple properties without re-entering your information each time. Having all documents ready before you find a unit puts you ahead of applicants who need extra time to gather materials.
State law provides several baseline protections for all renters: security deposits must typically be returned within a set window after move-out with an itemized deduction statement; landlords must give advance notice before entering a unit except in emergencies; and all rentals must meet basic habitability standards. For city-specific tenant protections, check with your local municipality — some cities have additional renter ordinances beyond state law.
