About this space

Check our Queen City Haven room for availability. If it is booked or you have family of more than two this room would be available. It is an upstairs bedroom with full bed, sometimes shared bath, an upstairs deck & family area with TV. We travel quite a bit, so this area could all be yours if we are gone. Hiking & biking trails are right out our front door. We are within walking distance of the Capitol and downtown with its micro breweries, wine bar, art galleries, unique shops & restaurants.

The space
Welcome to our home. This room is available when the Queen City Haven room is booked or it could be rented when renting our Queen City Haven room and needing an extra room for a larger group. When renting both rooms you would share the downstairs bathroom. We also have a trundle bed in our basement that kids might like. At times we are gone and you would have this room, the bathroom and the upstairs living area to yourselves. If we are home when you rent this room, you will have to share the upstairs bath.

With our beautiful wood floors, we ask that you remove your shoes and not leave wet towels on the floor or bed. There is a laundry basket in the bathroom to place soiled linens.

Guest access
Feel free to use our outdoor spaces and the kitchen. You may access the microwave, toaster, stove, and fridge. Please place dirty dishes in the dishwasher. We will take care of the washing. If the fridge is not providing ice, there is ice in the freezer. We try to keep a shelf in the fridge open, but if we forget, make space for your items.

We have a coffee/tea tray set up on the sideboard in the dining room. The electric water pot will heat water for tea or for the French coffee press. Make yourselves at home, sit down, and enjoy your morning coffee or tea along with fruit and muffins or bread at the dining room table or kitchen bar. We have a lovely patio with a BBQ that may be used by guests in the spring, summer and fall.

If you need to do laundry, please let us know. Towels for the upstairs room are hanging in the upstairs bath. They are the pink and green towels. Please place dirty towels in the basket under the table. Towels for the downstairs room are on the suitcase or hanging on the bathroom door. Please place dirty towels in the laundry basket in the bathroom. There are toiletries in a bowl on the downstairs bathroom counter and on the dresser in the upstairs bedroom. If you need a toothbrush or anything else, please ask.

Other things to note
Our peaceful location is just seven blocks from the Capitol and Last Chance Gulch. We are just minutes away from mountains, rivers, and all sorts of recreation. We will provide you with information about the recreational activities, places the locals love to eat and visit, and maps and brochures about all of these.

Walk out our door and go west to the corner to access mountain trails or walk west down State Street to Helena’s fabulous walking mall, which contains two breweries, many eating establishments, shops and a distillery down on Front Street. Walk east on State Street to reach Montana’s Capital complex which contains Montana’s restored Capitol building and Historical Society.

Things to know

Additional rules

Because of our beautiful hardwood floors, we are a shoeless home. We would appreciate you eating only in our dining room or kitchen. Pets, although we love them, and smoking are not allowed. We would prefer that you not smoke on our outside premises. We know that as our guests you will treat our home respectfully.

About your hosts

We are retirees who enjoy travel and meeting new people. Sandi was an educator and loves researching family history and much of her travel revolves around her roots. She would also assist you with research on your Montana ancestors. We enjoy interacting with others and traveling. Little jaunts and long cross country trips open our minds and eyes to the wealth and beauty of our country. During our travels we enjoy good wine, food, and music. A Susan Sontag quote, “I haven’t been everywhere, but it’s on my list.” is Sandi’s motto and Ken says, “She is dragging me along. She has visited all of our fifty states and is making sure I catch up.” We are now working on countries and continents.

During your stay

We will interact with guests as much as they like. You take the lead as we do not want to impose ourselves on you. Sometimes we are traveling and you have the place to yourselves or there may be guests upstairs.
