Great Location & Gracious Hosts
We really enjoyed staying at the Helman House Mega! Lots of space for extended families and walkable to downtown Ashland, Lithia Park and wonderful restaurants. Great off street parking, nice soaking tub in separate bath and W/D on site. Great communication from hosts, easy check in and out. A great place to spread out with extended family.

Great Location in Ashland
The Helman Street Guest Houses were a great retreat for our family's multi-generational family vacation. We had three families meet up and use the main house and two studios for our spring break. There was plenty of space for the nine of us and our dogs. The location was wonderful and was a quick walk to the main downtown area. Communication was easy with Sylvie and they were always quick to respond. We would love to come back to the Helman House for a future family vacation!

Cozy, comfy, perfect home for our very large group!
The Helman House (Mega) was the absolute perfect home for our stay in Ashland. We are a group of eleven 25-45 year old women going through a certification program and our teacher is in Ashland. It took us so long to find the perfect place for us to stay in Ashland as our group is so big. We really wanted to stay together, close to downtown Ashland, and this house made that possible. The beds were all so comfortable, the living room was perfect for having our circles in, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the bathrooms were great. Both of the two apartments were well furnished and just as lovely as the main house. Sylvie (the owner) and Kat (her PA) were wonderful hosts and we are so grateful we stayed here. We will absolutely stay here again next time we come together in Ashland!
