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!

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!

Perfect place for long stay/close to downtown

We went to Helena a week before our daughter's wedding and this sweet rental was perfect for our family. We loved walking to downtown, hiking and visiting the local brewpubs and restaurants. We slept well, the beds were cozy. Thank you so much!

Nice place, just not for me

I felt the description of the property was misleading. The VRBO indicates “entire house”, yet when we check in we find out there is a long term tenant living above. Basically this is a downstairs apartment. The dryer, located behind a locked door in the living room was running when we arrived. Then we see that there is another person living in the upstairs. You could hear the walking and things rattling overhead. When there was a lot of water flushed, maybe a toilet flush, it sounded like a rush of water in the living room ceiling. The place was nicely decorated, beds were comfy, and it was clean. It’s just not a place for me.

Great Family Visit

I really enjoyed staying again in this historic neighborhood near downtown! The property has been nicely updated and was very comfortable, clean and cozy for our stay. There was everything we needed in the kitchen to prepare meals. The mattresses and bedding were great, so we slept well. Even with some snowy weather, it was easy to stay warm as the building is well insulated. This was my second stay here, and I would definitely stay here again next visit as I have family in the area. It's a wonderful base, and has some good memories.

Love this place

My husband and I really enjoyed staying here. The hosts were accommodating and flexible. The apartment was clean and pleasant, and I loved looking at Breena’s beautiful ceramic pieces. The location is wonderful. We enjoyed the charming ambiance of the old historic mining neighborhood and I had the most pleasant walk through the neighborhood and nearby trails in a beautiful snow storm. I would love to come back in the spring or summer when all of their flowers are in bloom.

Charming downstairs apartment near Trails and Old Town

Quiet neighborhood on the edge of town. Walk to plethora of hiking and biking trails and saunter through Old Town Helena the other direction. Nice little yard for our dog. Everything we needed for a comfortable, relaxing stay. Easy communication with the owners.

Walking Distance to Trails and Town

What a great location!! We were in walking distance of downtown and a beautiful trail system. It was so nice being able to leave the house and simply walk to trailheads. The host was great as well and checked in several times to talk to us about the area and see if there was anything we needed!
