The using was good no issues at all. Only thing that could be improved on is some sound proofing as the walk way echos loudly in the bedrooms. Had to ask a few neighbors to keep the noise down.

Excellent location with beautiful view.

Location is great and very convenient, the view was awesome. Access to the river right outside the front door was amazing and the view from the balcony was great. The unit itself was pretty nice but the cleaning service doesn’t do a great job. With a quick wipe down this place is great for a family vacation.

Perfect Location - Clean and Well Stocked

The home was very conveniently located right along the stream so when we were in the home relaxing we had the added relaxation of the water rippling over the rocks to soothe away the cares of the day. For those able to walk a few block the home is close enough to walk comfortably to the shops and restaurants.

Nice place…

We stayed here for 4 nights. Everything was very clean. I’m 63, and would have liked to see handles in the showers and the toilets a bit taller. Otherwise, it was a nice stay.

Great place and location

It’s a great location, right on the river, close walking distance to restaurants & shops. We really enjoyed our stay. Tell ‘John Foxx’ we really enjoyed our stay. Definitely would recommend to others & just sorry NYE falls during the wk or we would be back! My only suggestion since the breakfast bar only seats 2 to eat, is to add a rack of TV trays so if there are more than 2 ppl, others can sit and eat at the couch or recliner chair. Otherwise, it was fine for 2-3 ppl.

Great location!

This property was very convenient to everything to do in Helen. We enjoyed our stay, but it could use a little TLC. Sliding door was hard to open, sofa was in need of being replaced as it had worn holes, back burner eye on stove did not work, and molding around tile at front door was not attached to floor. These are small things and did not disrupt our stay. Yes, we would stay there again!
Stayed 3 nights in May 2019
Response from VrboOwner on 21 June 2023
Marilyn, we are so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback with us. Our local manager has purchased a couch cover for the loveseat to make it more comfortable. She has also scheduled maintenance for the sliding door, molding and the burner so those items will be taken care of right away. We look forward to hosting you again! Thank you!

Ranger Reunion

Brought wife to see Helen (been 30 years) for a Ranger camp open house in Dahlonega. Alot had changed. Everything was as advertised, however extremely noisy! street noise and adjacent apartment noises till midnight or 1am. Stairwell was right above bedroom. So not much sleep to say the least. other than that, as advertised.

Ants

Floors were very dirty and there were ants everywhere. We had to keep all food in the refrigerator, even the chips. Ants were also very bad in the master bedroom. The condo itself was nice and the location was excellent.

James, we're glad that you thought our home and its location were nice but we are disheartened to read that you experienced issues that kept you from fully enjoying your stay. We apologize for the cleanliness details that were missed and our local manager assured us that the home has been treated for ants. We enjoyed having you as our guest and we hope to host you again.
