Beautiful house, great host!
Seven of us from Pennsylvania were in Helena to visit family. The house was perfectly located between my downtown brother and my Grizzly Gulch mother. The house had everything we needed and the host was always available for questions. My grandchildren, 4 and 9, thought we were staying in a castle. We throughly enjoyed our stay and can definitely recommend it to anyone traveling with a group.

Weekend retreat
Review 1-It would be nice if had a go to list of how things work in the house. 2- no tv instructions 3- no grill use instructions 4- no grill clean up instructions or tools provided 5- no explanation of water dispenser. 6- no small dish rags for dishes 7- towels and bedding very unorganized 8- shampoo, soap, not obvious 9 you can not park 4 cars in driveway They should let you know there is a window cover for the half circle window in the master. We did have to track down internet router in master after 2 hours of trying we did get it working. That said is very quirky and large and comfortable. The fire places are easy and cozy. We would stay again.

Thanksgiving Family Get Away
We traveled from Oregon to celebrate Thanksgiving with our daughter who plays softball at Carroll College. Everything we needed for our Thanksgiving feast was available at the house. The only thing I was missing was a Kuerig. We brought coffee pods with us. We loved learning about the history of the house and neighboring homes. It was a memorable stay! Thank you for opening your home to us.

Cool historic home
Our family really enjoyed all the space in here to spread out. The dining room was our favorite with the rock walls and big table to enjoy dinners and cards together. The location was great to be able to walk to dinner and bars. Would definitely stay here again!

Miner’s Manor
Miner’s manor is an eclectic Helena home, rich with history. While situated conveniently to downtown and equipped well with the comforts of home, the general upkeep of the property warrants a few notes. The listing mentioned a single exterior camera but many cameras could be seen throughout the property including in the main bedroom (angled out the window), general cleanliness was a concern (dirty dishes in dishwasher, mold and mildew in shower, live and dead bugs on the floor, unpleasant urine odor in living room). While we enjoyed our stay overall, we were disappointed in the overall state of the house given the price point and associated cleaning fees. Our hope in writing this is that this historical home can be honored as future guests enjoy their stay. Addressing these main concerns can help make this rental easily one of the best in town, taking it from good to great.

We were looking for a place short notice for attending a family funeral. This home was beautiful! Communication with the host was exceptional and the location couldn't have been better. Located near downtown with many stores and restaurants. I highly recommend this property. Our experience couldn't have been better!

1st trip to Helena Montana
If you ever get to Helena Mt this is the place to stay. Beautiful home! Gorgeous rock work. 2 fireplaces that keep you nice and toasty. Well stocked kitchen, bathrooms and the beds are so comfy. Conveniently located to everything. If I ever come back and I hope I can, I would definitely rent again

Great for multiple guests
Our stay was very pleasant. We appreciated the variety of rooms available (main floor suite for our parents, upstairs suite with door to a balcony, third bedroom shared access to bathroom, plenty of extra sleeping options), plenty of fans to help curb the heat, tucked away but still close to town and amenities. Super happy to have a decent kitchen, as family meals were preferred. Nice to have W/D and D/W. Lovely dining room with a large table and a buffet; comfortable t.v. room and separate living room. Thankful for child gate available in BR closet, and for lots of clean bath towels. Only downsides were 1/2 bath and outdoor table in very poor condition, and security lights shone too bright for upstairs suite. Very steep set of stairs to 2nd floor could be difficult for some, and down to living room (8' wide?? hard to block off for young children). To keep things in perspective, reread positive aspects above.

Everything was good, however, you have a serious pigeon problem, and they provide an alarm clock at 6am or earlier, and the T. V. Should have instructions as to how to operate it. We finally found tissues. There were supplies, however, there were none out.

Awesome House and Host
We stayed four nights at Miners Manor. The host was excellent and easily available. A beautiful and very interesting historic house, sitting literally up against Mt. Helena City Park. Our party was only four people, but this large house could’ve comfortably had six to eight. Kitchen well stocked, Amazon Firestick smart TVs…two fireplaces…spotless clean. A gas grill and a Traeger pellet grill, huge brick fire pit. Our only regret is we couldn’t stay longer!

Beautiful historic home
Great house with lots of room. It got a little hot in the upstairs since there is no air conditioning and not a lot of circulation, but beautiful home. The driveway is tricky and definitely doesn't have room for four vehicles-three was pushing it. It was a beautiful and interesting home.

Really enjoyed our stay at the house. All was as promised. The early snow made the driveway a little tricky, but we were able to get it cleaned up with no issues. Property manager was helpful and had a snow removal crew on standby if required. Thanks!
