We are empty nesters with room to spare. We made an apartment for guests and love hosting families. We are in East Helena in an older neighborhood with two parks within walking distance. There is a large yard complete with a basketball hoop. The apartment has a "going to grandma's feel" with older antique furnishing.

This property was close to family we were visiting, so conveniently located. Backyard is darling. Apartment was clean and amenities were great. My only complaint is that the bed was very soft and gave me a bit of a sore back. Everything else was wonderful!
Very clean and plenty of room for our family of five. They have a great yard although we mostly stayed inside as our two year old LOVED all the kitchen toys! The only drawback for little kids was the lack of a bathtub, but we didn’t stay long enough to need one anyway!
What a sweet surprise visiting as it was like going back home to visit . Very spacious and roomy allowing my daughter and baby in the alternate huge bedroom ! I loved having a living room to relax in , your library of books for all ages, the toys and play things that brought back great memories. I see such love put into this home and sense the joy and laughter shared as memories are made! I loved it . Communication was very easy with Shirley during my stay as needed .
Location is close to airport . Thank you so much Shirley ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This is a beautiful rental! It is clean with every amenity. There was even a tea service ready to go in the bedroom. So comfortable! The kitchen is stocked with everything you might need. We were visiting for Carroll's family weekend. It was a very short drive into Helena. I would stay here again and again and again!
The house was in a good neighborhood the host was so thoughtful of what she saw. TV went out and she didn't hesitate to get another. Gave my 6.4 ft husband a stool for relaxing. He enjoyed the conversations he had with her spouse out in the open air. I would love to come back there if the need comes. I would recommend this spot.Thanks Shirley.
Immaculately clean and nicely decorated with very thoughtful accommodations. Shirley is a wonderful communicator and made our first trip to East Helena very comfortable and well-equipped. Highly recommended!

The perfect VRBO doesn't exis.....wait a second! THIS is the perfect little VRBO if you're looking for something clean, adorable, well maintained and close to Helena without being in town.
I stayed two nights and it was super clean (actually inspired me to go home and do some scrubbing at my own home!), quiet and comfy. Shirley is a doll--fabulous communication and just a sweetheart.
Next time I'm in Helena, I'll be checking to see if this one's available.
This property is amazing clean and comfortable. Great location and awsome host Shirley thanks
