A perfect getaway! The house was spotless and in a great location. There was plenty of space for our entire group to relax and unwind. The kids and adults loved the game room/bar/tv set up, the hot tub and the river directly off the back steps. It truly felt like a home away from home. Highly recommend for families! The host was wonderful to work with, and everything went smoothly. 5/5 stars—we can't wait to come back!

Great cabin, great location!

Cabin was well stocked with supplies and kitchen ware. Very clean and comfortable. Sitting on the porch listening to the river was so relaxing. Kids enjoyed using their own tubes to float from roadside park north of Helen right back to the cabin. We also enjoyed being able to walk to town.

Wonderful Stay

My husband and I travel to Helen with a group every year, and this was one of our favorite places to stay. It was close enough to walk but felt like it was far enough away where you were out of the busy area. The house was very clean! We loved being able to sit on the back porch overlooking the river and watch tv. Karen was very responsive if I had any questions and made sure we had everything we needed.

Christmas in Helen

We had an awesome stay ,from grilling to the hot tub, to zip lining, and coffee on a deck in the cool morning air. We enjoyed having separate levels with rooms and not having to flip a coin for the bathtub seeing as there was two, 3 if you count the downstairs. The place was clean and well kept.Thanks for having us !!

Great riverside getaway

The minute we walked into the property we were greeted with a clean and comforting place. The TV was on with music, and it was all inviting. The property was big enough for everyone to have their own space. We loved the view of the river and the kids loved to play by the river. The patio space was great for chatting, watching TV, and relaxing with the view. We liked that the property was close to town so that we could take a nice walk to get to activities and restaurants. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to be back again!

Phenomenal stay!

Property was as advertised and perfect for our stay. We had three adults and three children (10, 7 and 4). Plenty of room in bedrooms for everyone. The location on the river allowed us to just walk up the street to public park, put our own tubes in (we brought) and float down to property. Kids loves skipping rocks and looking at wildlife. Everything in the house was clean and well-organized. The driveway into property is a little steep, so a low vehicle would need to drive cautiously, but still accessible! We were able to walk around and drive around with plenty of parking to enjoy food and entertainment. Slot Cars were an unexpected fun time with the kids just a few 100 yards away from property. Host is amazing at communication and made sure we were well taken care of. Zero issues with our stay. Would stay again in a heartbeat! Thank you!!!

This is a very clean & quiet location, right on the river. It's close, easy walking distance to everything. But it's just far enough away - away from most of the traffic. The host was very responsive and proactive. The decks & porches are great, the hot tub looked good but didn't use it. Beds, linens, towels pretty good. The kitchen is just what you'd expect with everything you'd need to cook multiple meals. We were there for business, 2 nights during the off-season. Definitely recommend this property.
