This property is clean and quiet. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Check in and out was very easy. Compared to some VRBOs where you just about have to clean the property before you leave. Would highly recommend.

Just off the strip next to really great restaurants. Peaceful and quiet with a big space for our family to enjoy the tranquility of Helen GA. Fantastic restaurants two blocks away. Fantastic internet to research the next day. We had a great time. Very clean and new townhouse. Would stay again.

The townhouse was very clean and the location was great. It was very quiet and easily accessed. Our only suggestions would be more wash cloths and towels (1 of each for 2 days is really not enough) and clothes hangers.

It was short, but we liked it. There were broken blinds which made us nervous, but overall it was ok

The location was perfect. Beds were comfortable. I never could get ahold of anyone to tell when we checked out, because I couldn’t get a signal from the Valhalla Resort - where we had a fabulous breakfast!! Might suggest a few more drinking glasses. But that wasn’t a big deal since we were only there 1 night. Will definitely be back!

This was a great listing! It was very clean and spacious. The location was perfect for a short 1 mile walk to Main Street in Helen. The beds were very comfortable as well. Plenty of parking and a very quiet neighborhood.

We met up with some family for a reunion. This was less than a mile to the city center walking. This has plenty of room and all of the essentials you need. It was nice to have a place away from the hustle and bustle to relax. Oktoberfest is a blast, I highly recommend visiting this town and staying with this host!

We enjoyed our stay at this very clean & quiet condo. It was stocked with all the basic necessities & the Christmas tree was a wonderful touch! The king size bed was very comfortable which was so nice after hiking all day & walking the streets around Helen each night, We would definitely stay here again.

The first thing I look for in a Vrbo is cleanliness! This place fit the bill- and I have high standards!
Additionally- we were allowed to check in early which was MUCH appreciated! Location is great- not on the beaten path - but close enough to everything! Appreciated the Roku and ability to log into our Netflix too!!
