About this property

Trail Lovers Getaway - walk or bike to downtown

Come relax or be adventurous during your stay in this newly remodeled historic home in the beloved South Broadway neighborhood. This is the perfect location for a true Helena experience! Spencer Street is nestled between 4 trailheads and within minutes of downtown's breweries and locally owned shops. This unique area of Helena is known for its closely connected quaint homes that once housed gold miners working up nearby gulches. Welcome to the neighborhood and let us know if you need anything!

This street level apartment features two bedrooms with new mattresses, a fully equipped kitchen, and great outdoor space with views of the mountains. Enjoy a personal fenced-in yard or the shared garden space with the grill and picnic table. We had fun furnishing this space with a mix of vintage and modern furniture and some of our favorite artwork and handmade lighting. Get in touch with the host if you want to know more about the artwork that fills the space or more about the local art scene!

Good location to downtown Helena and the trail systems. It was a good home base. Beds were just okay (when you have a nice mattress at home you get spoiled).

Really nice place, close to shops and food. Very quiet. Perfect for a trip that you plan on being adventurous. Not a place to go if you’re going to want to sit in the house all day. Very comfortable to come back to after a nice long hike.

This property was conveniently located to our family so it worked perfectly. The hosts were also able to accommodate an extra day for us when we got snowed in and did not want to adventure across McDonald Pass. That was much appreciated

In the heart of Helena

Loved our stay at this cute little house. Had everything we needed, the beds were super comfy, and the property was very clean. Easy walking distance to all of the sights in central Helena. Fenced yard for our dog was a bonus! Would stay again!
