Awesome location, clean property and availability of second property next door was exactly what we needed for our large group. Would definitely stay again.
We visit Helen every June for a long weekend. We truly enjoyed staying at this property. Had everything we needed and was in a great riverfront location. Walking distance to Helen is a great plus.
Very clean property and beautiful property right on the water very quite road I did meet the property owner and he was so nice and helpful. Beautiful horses right across the road.
Great location which allows a quick walk to downtown Helen! Host was awesome and quick to respond. Would highly recommend as a great place for a large family or group of friends to stay!
Great stay. Everything was clean and spacious enough for 7 adults. For me it was the best stocked kitchen with pots, pans, plate, cups, utensils, etc… of any VRBO I have ever stayed in.
Awesome family spot right on the river with plenty of games and outside spaces. We had a wonderful family get together and the nephews loved it! The kitchen was very well equipped with a nice gas grill as well. We all said we hope to make it back home again soon!
We had the best time at this beautiful house on the river! Even had a Christmas tree up which I thought was amazing! We loved every minute there. Thank you so much for letting us rent your awesome house
The owners were gracious enough to open their home to my family due hurricane Milton. It was very last minute and they were able to accommodate us! The location is amazing! We walked to everything and even went fishing in the river. So grateful to have stayed here!
Wonderful property and location! Had everything we needed and plenty of room. We love Helen and Oktoberfest. This property will be on our list for future visits!!
Beautiful location so fun to sit on the back deck in the glider and watch the creek go by. Right by the front door and is a large round table with the little gas fire pit in the middle. It was perfect for night time get togethers. We spent happy evenings there. There is plenty of outside and inside comfortable seating. The house was clean and spacious with lots of light and views of the river. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of room to move around with 3 cooks!. Bathrooms and bedrooms have plenty of towels and linens. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend.
The cabin is amazing. With in walking distance to everything. Stayed here for my 50th birthday with my parents and a few friends. The overall set up is perfect . Gorgeous property. We definitely would stay here again.
We loved our house, very spacious and the property was beautiful. Having family also stay at the cabin next door was perfect too! 10 out of 10 experience!!
We loved this home so much! Being right on the river was amazing and we walked to several restaurants and shops while there. The two Queen bedrooms downstairs were almost identical for the two adult couples which was great. The room upstairs with two full beds was perfect for me
There is something so soothing when you awaken to the sound of river water. This house was so relaxing. The big porch facing the river was great to sit and relax. For cooking on site there are plenty pots,pans and dinnerware for our group. This is the best ever location, house and vaca for us!
It was the perfect property to enjoy family and celebrate a special birthday. Family living in the area could drop by and visit. Living in Texas it was a special time. We were away from the hustle and bustle of Helen, but only a short walk to enjoy the festivities. Being Thanksgiving week, it was quicker to walk than drive and pay for parking. Was even able to visit family graves in Tocooa. Hosts were so accommodating and provided many amenities.
