The Governor’s House

A beautiful 5 bedroom historical house built in 1913 for Roy and Ellen Ayers. Mr Ayers was the Governor of Montana from 1937-1941. It is in the historical district called the “Courthouse District”.
3 large bedrooms are upstairs with one bath and 2 bedrooms are on the main floor with 2 baths. The main floor has a large living room, dining room, kitchen, game room and office.
We have security cameras on the exterior of the house. They are disarmed when guests are there, unless we see there is an issue (sneaking a pet in, too many people, destructive behavior, etc).

The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 5 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Cousins trip

Our stay was fantastic. The kitchen was more than adequate to cook or bake. The coffee was great. All the towels were nice and fluffy. We used the washer and dryer. The blow driers were full sized so you can leave yours at home. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to using this property in the future.

Great history and perfect location!

The house was perfect for our visit to Lewistown for a family wedding! It accommodated our family and we enjoyed spending time on the front porch and appreciated the documentation providing the history of the house. The only downfall was not enough toiletries and garbage bags for our larger group. Would definitely stay again!

Fantastic House! Great Location!

This is the third year in a row that my family has stayed here. The house has plenty of space for a larger group. It's clean, full of historic charm, and the location is awesome! The kids walk to and from the pool and Spring Creek. It's also an easy walk to Main Street to take in the shops and restaurants. We are thrilled to be repeat guests and are already looking forward to next summer.

Gorgeous, clean home with rich history and charm! This home is beautifully furnished, with ample room for families to relax and enjoy their stay.
