This is one of the best areas in the state to live in, and I have lived here for nearly 37 years.

We have some pretty great attractions and fun things to do here. There's the Helena Amphitheater which is just awesome for live music shows, Hillsboro Trail for spending some time enjoying nature, Warehouse 31, a pretty neat Haunted attraction that's open all year long, and Southern Balloon Journeys for the adventurous souls who would enjoy a ride in a hot air balloon! There really is something for everyone in this beautiful place, and we'd love to have you! Read Less
