This five-acre oasis was once a landscape nursery. So given the close proximity to downtown we are a hidden sanctuary from the outside world, secluded by cottonwood trees and mature foliage. The site now serves as a wedding venue and offers views of Mount Helena to the South and the Sleeping Giant to the North. Learn more about this land: Pitch a tent in our aspen grove or park your camper/RV in the grassland field. You're close to downtown with lots of privacy/scenery. You'll have views of regal Mount Helena to the South and The Sleeping Giant to the North. The South Hill trail complex is a great place to explore as well as the Scratchgravels. The Missouri River is only 20 minutes away as well as Lake Hauser and Canyon Ferry. If new to the area and interested in history, we recommend the Tour Train. We also have several great breweries - our favorites include Ten Mile and Blackfoot Breweries (a perfect stop you can ride to after a trail ride/hike in the South Hills). This site is perfect for those wanting to explore Downtown Helena, it's renowned trail systems, but still sleep under the stars. Pets are allowed. Please make sure you pick up after them. There is water throughout the property that you are welcome to use for cleaning, but it is not potable.

Site 1 - In-town Private Sanctuary

This place is 10/10. I wasn’t sure what to expect since it was right in the city, but it really is a sanctuary. The grounds are gorgeous and because it was fenced in, my dog loved it. It was like a giant private farm. In the day that I was leaving there were people setting up for a wedding. Would definitely stay here again plus super close to city center and all shops etc

Site 1 - In-town Private Sanctuary

Such a convenient location to stay. Beautiful spot surrounded by nature. Bees, chickens, bunnies and lots of trees.

Site 2 - In-town Private Sanctuary

Very well located campground close to Helena Downtown (~8 Minute drive) and close to large grocery stores. You camp on grassy grounds, have nice trees around you, hear chickens and we even got company from a deer. You will almost forget that you are located in an urban area until you are reminded by the sound of the city (trains, cars and sometimes an airplane). Recommend as a base to explore the town.

Site 2 - In-town Private Sanctuary

We really enjoyed our stay at Ana’s Private Sanctuary. It was close to everything we needed and was still private and quiet. I recommend staying here for sure!
