Loving Ashland on Helman Street

Our stay at Helman House in Ashland was perfect. The house was lovely and comfortable, with enough space for everyone to sleep, eat, cook, play cards, and watch TV--when we were not out and about in Ashland! Will stay there again.

Lovely Stay

Everything about this place was lovely. Great location for walking into town. Super clean, super comfortable beds and bedding, and even a bidet in one of the bathrooms. A nicely stocked kitchen with everything you need to cook. Don’t look any further and you won’t be sorry.
