Helena Stay
We enjoyed the area greatly. The house was old but usable. The shortage of bathrooms was a little troublesome, but we managed. We saw many deer in the yard. A/C worked great. It was an overall good stay.

Lovely Historic home that is well equipped
This house had everything we needed. All the bedrooms were large and well equipped. Comfortable beds, large closets with plenty of hangers and luggage racks, dressers, mirrors, and plugs for all my electronics. Bathrooms were large as well and were well lit with plenty of towels, and other bathroom necessities. The kitchen was well stocked, large and clean. The dining room table was a perfect place for large gatherings . There was seating for 10+ around the large wooden table. The best part was sitting in the comfortable chairs on the front porch while enjoying the beautiful weather and view of Mount Helena as I drank my coffee. We will definitely be staying here again.

This charming old Victorian was very well maintained and spotless! The beds and bed linens were super comfy and there was plenary of towels, blankets, pillows. Remember, this is a old home with lots of charm. It is not a modern, sleek hotel room. I felt safe with young children in this home as long as they did not go up into the attic space alone.

The perfect historic home
We rented the Little Helena Mansion for 2 nights for 7 ladies in town for a tennis tournament. We loved the house- plenty of beds all of which were very comfy! We loved sitting on the back porch for meals and were very thankful that the house has AC as it was super hot in Helena this weekend! Would definitely recommend!

Nice Getaway
This was a FABULOUS place to stay! We all loved the nostalgia of the mansion, the ornate woodwork and it just felt like home away from home! There were 6 adults and we all had plenty of room. The dining room was great for playing cards and meals, bedrooms were spacious and beds were comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay and will rent this one again!

Wonderful space for a family gathering to celebrate my son's wedding
I am so grateful to the owners for going above and beyond to ready this historic home for my family. We were all very comfortable, wonderful beds! Family and friends came over to have some meals over the course of the long weekend, and the dining room and living room space was able to accommodate our revolving visitors easily. The kitchen is well stocked for serving many people. And the location is easily accessible to downtown Helena.

Helena’s Little Mansion Delivers
We absolutely enjoyed every minute of our stay at this home. It’s history is recognizable from the moment you walk in the front door, but that says little for how great a place this was for our family to stay, altogether, for our trip to Helena. Not only would we recommend this to anyone bringing a large group, we plan to stay here again in the spring for our son’s graduation from Carroll College

It was nice for family to be together in one spot. In town to pay our last respects to our Mother. There were a couple complaints. 1. The coffee pot was filthy. 2. all the condiments on the door took away from what we needed to put in. 3. Only a couple spoons. The decor was perfect for the house.and had a place for kids to play.

Our family rented the Little Helena Mansion because we were in town for a family wedding. It was the perfect rental for our family (ranging in ages from 4-47)! It had everything we needed and we felt right at home. It was so much fun to check out the amazing house and all of the rooms when we first got into town. We would definitely stay here again!

Our family had a great time staying at this old mansion in Helena. The atmosphere and charisma of the place is almost breathtaking when you first step inside. There was plenty of seating in the front room and around the large dining room table for our family of 15 to chill, play games and talk late into the night.

We had an incredible time. We are foodies and this kitchen has absolutely everything. This was a family reunion of 12 and it was wonderful that we were able to all sit around the table for all our meals. It was also nice that the 3 adult couples were able to have their own rooms with real comfortable beds. It''s a very close drive to recreation areas, downtown Helena and gorcery stores.

Beautiful house, just a bit pricey
We rented this property for a company retreat. It did have enough room for those who were staying the night, as well as it is a gorgeous house, and it has everything you need in the kitchen. The cons for this property were that it was pricey and had a lot of extra fees, including a cleaning fee. It's understandable to have a fee for that as we would assume they would contract that out, however, there was an entire list of cleaning duties for us to complete before checking out. It just seemed a little preposterous for us to pay a large cleaning fee and then have to clean the house ourselves as well. It was a fun experience, just don't know if we would be booking here again in the future.
