Comfortable, cute townhouse

We had a nice visit; the house is conveniently located near the Big Powderhorn lifts. Individual heat control for each room was wonderful. Nice location for town and Snow River.

Ski Weekend

We were there for a long ski weekend. Helena allowed us an early check in. Place was recently renovated, beds were comfy, ample seating, good wifi. Asked to have door between units open, responded right away, parking area was plowed and shoveled twice while there. Plow/maintenance fellow very friendly and helpful. Could use a couple more pots/pans and some hooks in bedrooms for hanging ski clothes. Will not hesitate to stay there again

Awesome UP Ski Vacation

Property looks to be freshly updated. Super clean with all the amenities +. Great location to the main lodge. Would certainly rent again if we're skiing big snow country next year!

Convenient to Big Powderhorn Skiing!

Two families with kids from 6-12 stayed for a ski trip to Big Powderhorn! The rental was perfect for our getaway, close to the hill and the right amount of space. Great kitchen setup and spacious bedrooms. Easy check in and out, overall really pleased with our stay!

Please get a new couch! It’s like sitting on bricks!

Place is super, grade location, beside the couch! I have to say, it’s probably the most uncomfortable couch I ever sat on! Please get a new one!
