About this property

A beautiful 5 bedroom historical house built in 1913 for Roy and Ellen Ayers. Mr Ayers was the Governor of Montana from 1937-1941. It is in the historical district called the “Courthouse District”.
3 large bedrooms are upstairs with one bath and 2 bedrooms are on the main floor with 2 baths. The main floor has a large living room, dining room, kitchen, game room and office.
We have security cameras on the exterior of the house. They are disarmed when guests are there, unless we see there is an issue (sneaking a pet in, too many people, destructive behavior, etc).

Heavenly Historic Home

Wonderful property for families or friends wanting a getaway in a very “homey” location! Loved this place for a three couple visit for Lewistown’s Centerfest Music Festival.

Fantastic House! Great Location!

This is the third year in a row that my family has stayed here. The house has plenty of space for a larger group. It's clean, full of historic charm, and the location is awesome! The kids walk to and from the pool and Spring Creek. It's also an easy walk to Main Street to take in the shops and restaurants. We are thrilled to be repeat guests and are already looking forward to next summer.

Happy Stay!

We were in this area for a job at a local site. It was so nice to have a clean place to return to at the end of the day! This had enough rooms for everyone to have their own privacy and the hosts were most accommodating and friendly!

About the host

Hosted by Derree Kamp

We are 5th generation Montanans, born and raised in central Montana. Greg is a building contract and Derree is retired from working at the Jr High. We enjoy being with our large family and recreating at the beach and lakes.
We have restored several historic houses in our area. The Governors house is special to us because we owned it 31 years ago and were fortunate to buy it again in 2020. Eventually, when we move to town, it will be our family home. Until then we love to share it with others.
