Bunkhouse Helena MT

Excellent vacation stay. Such a convenient location. Very comfortable. Well stocked kitchen. Great communication with Eliza. Loved enjoying coffee on the private patio where we could watch the wildlife. So much history to explore! Reeder’s Alley is a must see if you’re a history buff. The entire neighborhood is historical. We would definitely stay here again!

Cottage

There was a very well appointed kitchen with spices in the cabinet and salad dressings the fridge. Very much appreciated the ziploc bags that were available. We used the grill twice for burgers and brats. Very quiet location with an extremely comfy bed. Only issue was the 22 steps to get to the front door as I arrived in a wheelchair. Thanks, Eliza!

The Cottage at Bunkhouse Exceeded My Expectations

The perfect location to be apart of what is happening in downtown Helena. Super quiet, well maintained, and has a flair of its own that most places do not have. An absolutely perfect Vrbo for myself and I will book again for all future visits. The charm of the Cottage, along with the beauty of Helena and the people, has helped me fall in love with the area.Lastly, thank you to the property manager for the excellent communication, response time, and overall mamagement of the property. Quite the property that more people should enjoy!!!

Close to Downtown and Historical Helena

We liked that this property is within walking distance to Last Chance Gulch. The property is old but that is its charm. We walked to downtown restaurants for dinners out.

Enjoyed this dog friendly property. Although an older (historic) home, it had all the amenities we needed for an easy and enjoyable stay. Bed was very comfortable which is always a bonus.

The perfect spot

This place was a great find. Located just outside of West Helena, convenient to everything, yet very peaceful. Well appointed and so comfortable. Nice deck to relax and BBQ in the evening. Dog friendly with small enclosed area.
