Pleasant stay
The property manager responded right away both times I contacted them with concerns. Lovely shampoo and conditioner available with very nice towels. Beds and pillows very comfortable. Location excellent for walking to historic downtown. Close to college. Elderly parent concerned about shower with no hand holds but property easy to enter with ramp. Rugs at front door do slip some.

Long weekend in Helena
Perfect property for a large family or three or four couples. Everything about it was top notch and immaculately clean. Internet was great. Even used the barbecue. Only thing we missed was access to typical cable channels on the many large screen tvs in every room. But did appreciate access to streaming services.

Greatest in the Great Northern
I can't say enough about this property, how perfect it was in every way. The location made Helena so walkable! The outdoor patio allowed us to enjoy the beautiful weather. The layout, the amenities and all of the little details have been considered and more! I've stayed in many VRBO's and this one, by far, thought about the needs of their guests. The kitchen has everything you need and more (supplies, spices, etc.). The beds/pillows and bedding were so comfy, clean and high quality. Our family was in town and others stayed in 6 other VRBOS and this was by far the best!! The communication was so easy and accommodating for our needs. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful property!

Home away from Home
We are a family of 6 Helena residents. We were in dire need of finding a place quickly as our house had flooded and we needed somewhere to go before moving to a longer term rental, and so that the restoration company could begin their work on our house. How lucky we were to find this house. It was SO clean upon entering (like impeccably clean....so impressive), very cozy and inviting, and stocked with everything you need. Our kids loved the adventure of living here, despite the craziness of being displaced from their home. We were able to carry on with our school and activities schedule with ease, walk downtown and to the carousel, and had all the creature comforts to allow us to plan our next moves. We found respite in the very comfy beds and TVs in every room. Our weekly movie night was even more special because of that. It felt like we had a little luxury amidst the chaos. Thank you to Kim and Bridget. We were so lucky to find this home away from home.

BEST EVER!!
We have stayed at many VRBOs over the years and this property was by far the best that we have ever had. The house and patio were super clean and stocked with everything a person could need/want. The location was perfect. We felt completely safe and we could easily walk to restaurants and shops. The entire process from beginning to end was very easy and there were quick responses to any questions we had. THANK YOU!!!

Wonderful
This place was simply perfect in every way. The location was close to downtown and the historical district so we were able to walk everywhere. We were seven adults who have all stayed at different VRBOs when traveling and we all agreed that it was the very best VRBO we have had. It was clean and comfortable with lots of extras provided like coffee, a kitchen that had all the necessary appliances, lots of matching silverware, dishes and glasses and the host even provided foil, wrap and Tupperware for leftovers. Everything was top notched. The host provided an experience of “staying in someone’s home” rather than staying at a rental. We will stay here again on our next visit to Helena.

Beautiful accomodations in a perfect location!
This house was so spacious and comfortable with lots of extras! We walked to the Farmer's Market Saturday morning, biked to Historic Helena and walked to the grocery store. Located in a nice quiet neighborhood. We loved how a young doe layed and watched us as we loaded our car in the morning - so sweet!
