About this property

Relaxing Escape - The Clancy Cottage

The 800 SF Clancy Cottage was constructed in 2022 with an open floor plan and all the amenities needed for a comfortable and enjoyable experience. It is located in a relaxing setting next door to our private residence with views of Sheep Mountain across the way.

The cottage includes a full kitchen (no dishwasher) with everything you will need to prepare meals, a bathroom that includes a standard shower, washer and dryer, and a walk in closet. The spacious bedroom is located upstairs on the loft with a king bed and a designated work space.

During the warm Montana weather, you can relax and enjoy yourself on the outdoor patio which includes a propane grill, propane fire-pit and a hot tub. The hot tub is not available for use from Nov.1-Apr.1 due to the cold weather limiting the maintenance that is required (as noted in hot tub photos). Activities enjoyed in the immediate area include hiking, disc golf (sheep mountain), mountain biking, ATVing and kayaking/paddle boarding at Park Lake (just a few miles past the cottage).

The cottage is located just 2 miles from I-15 and is a quick drive to Helena where you can enjoy dining, breweries, theater, shopping, a hot springs, and historical places of interest.

If you're looking for comfortable, immaculate, and quiet accommodations in the Helena area I highly recommend the Clancy Cottage. We had a great stay. As a host Stacey is fantastic, I can't think of anything she could do to to make it easier for guests to settle in and relax.
