About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

“Amazing”! “Relaxing and Peaceful” Cabin. "A Montana Treasure"!

Zephyr Hill is a stunning historical property located 10 minutes from Helena up Colorado Gulch. This creekside retreat is a great place for a getaway or an excellent basecamp for your Southwest Montana excursion. Carefully restored and updated with a small but modern kitchen, full bath, with a stone fireplace at the center of the cabin. Exposed logs and wood floors are comfortable while the Lodge Craft furnishings will remind you of accommodations in Yellowstone and Glacier. The huge main bedroom is a step-down from the living area and has a comfortable king-sized bed. There is also a smaller bedroom with a twin over full log bunkbed (sleeps 3). Comfortable linens along with extra layers of blankets make it warm on cool summer nights or the coldest of winter days.

We renovated this cabin for use by our own family, but it's too great not to share! We live in the adjacent home, but don't worry, with 5 acres of ground - we may not even bump into each other. All the same, if you need anything during your stay, we're right next door.

While cell service is sparse, we do have fiber-optic internet that allows for WiFi calling and all messaging options. Instructions provided in the welcome book at the Cabin. 100% of our guests have successfully used WiFi calling and you’ll see no difference in your service once connected! The TV supports Netflix, Hulu, Disney Plus, Prime Video, etc. Please plan to familiarize yourself with casting from your own device or use your login info to access.

Set in a peaceful and lovely outdoor setting, the Cabin was a premier example of well thought out “hospitality.” From amazingly comfortable beds, huge fluffy towels and motion lights directing the bathroom path at night, to well stocked game shelves, dual coffee maker and complimentary micro-beers, this cabin will inspire you and/or your family to experience true “serenity.” Thank you Rick and Family for such a wonderful experience. I hope to return, frequently. Blessings… Glenna Bell Orman, Livingston, MT

Great location, though Apple and Google maps have difficulty locating the address, and cell service cuts out along the road. Near Helena but in a rural neighborhood with lots of trees and a lovely view from the front deck. Host was very responsive.

Really just the best!

The set up is really good, very quiet and peaceful - if you’re looking to reset and recharge this is the base camp you’re looking for. The cabin is set up really well for a small group, we loved having a fire in the evenings (oops just realized I left the flue open ;) ), it’s big time cozy in there and we lucked out with arriving to fresh snow, this will be my default place to stay near Helena…

A wonderful cabin getaway

Loved our 2 night stay in this charming cabin. It had everything we needed for a low key weekend with close proximity to hot springs. The fireplace is fantastic and the owners were very responsive to any questions or needs we had. The main bed was also incredibly comfortable. Would love to return!

Perfect Montana Getaway

Like a home away from home. This is the perfect getaway. Its clean, private, quiet, and so close to so many places you may want to visit. The owners are so gracious and will help you with most anything they can. We felt safe and comfortable and we even saw many animals. Would definitely recommend and would come back again.

Beautiful, peaceful cabin!

This property was wonderful! It was super comfortable, quiet and relaxing. My to young grandchildren stayed with me and enjoyed the cabin board games, playing in the teepee by the creek and running around the expansive yard. The host was super accommodating, too. I will definitely be back when I need a place to stay in Helena!

Absolutely Amazing Cabin and Hosts

The cabin itself is quaint, comfortable, and so much fun to stay in. The property is beautiful, and sitting outside on the large deck listening to the nearby creek is very relaxing. But none of that compares to how wonderful the hosts are. They are friendly and were quick to accommodate our needs with no hesitancy! Definitely going to try to stay at this cabin again in the future if possible!
