Frommers Montana & Wyoming, 2008


“Blending Helena's rich history and architecture with modern comfort, the Sanders B&B is an impressive mansion…amazingly well preserved and filled with lovely and elegant furnishings… The owners provide a gracious and friendly welcome as big as, well, Montana.”

"The Sanders is a lesson in Montana history all on its own. Built and owned by Wilbur Fisk Sanders in 1875 the B & B has been beautifully restored by Bobby Uecker (no relation to form ballplayer Bob), and Rock Ringling (a fourth generation descendent of the famous circus family)....
Bobbi's enthusiasm shows in every detail, from the savory breakfasts, where's she's willing to accommodate every kind of dietary restriction, to the advice she can offer on Helena's restaurants and attractions.
Frommer's Montana & Wyoming, 5th edition 2004


"Colonel Wilbur Sanders, one of the first senators of Montana, built this three story Victorian mansion in 1875. The colonel's rock collection is still in the front hall, and the B&B has retained his furnishings. Most of the rooms overlook mountain-ringed downtown Helena. Breakfasts are a work of art: Grand Marnier French Toast, orange soufflé, or gingerbread waffles."
Fodor's - Montana, Wyoming & Idaho 2004


"Built in 1875 by Montana's first U.S. senator, this lavish home is filled with period furnishings but has been thoroughly outfitted with modern conveniences."
