What a beautiful and very well appointed property! It was the absolute perfect size and location for our large family gathering prior to the wedding event held yesterday at lovely Terra Incognita Vineyard. We fell in love with the amazingly long main outdoor deck table which was large enough to seat us all at one time.Excellent communication is provided by the Host. He definitely earned a platinum star! Great place for family reunions. We highly recommend!!

The accommodation and space were perfect for our family of 11. The cabin is beautiful and amazing but the view felt like we hit the jackpot. We had one issue the first day but Rob was very attentive and communicative and did everything to solve it. Besides that we had an amazing time and will definitely come back this year.

Great place on the Chattahoochee. The home was perfect for our group. The driveway is very steep but other than that the house was a great find. Super clean, large, stocked with everything you can ask for. We would rent again..

Absolutely Stunning

Perfect location and size for our family….everyone had their own space and the table outside was big enough for all of us to sit around and eat together. An added bonus was the kayaks, tubes, and water shoes for all to use. Would definitely recommend.

Annual Family "Gathering of the Grands!"

This was our annual family gathering. We went hiking, tubing, played in the hot tub, played in the river, visited Helen, played games, had pool and corn hole tournaments, worked puzzles and thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful, well equipped house on the Chattahoochee. It was our first time to this area with the entire family. The host was very cooperative and quick to respond to our questions. We highly recommend this property.

Magical

The house is so beautiful. Located right on the water. Sitting on the porches listening to the rushing water was so serene. We hated leaving. We will definitely be back next year for our family vacay. The communication with the owner was excellent. He answered all my crazy questions promptly.

Rausch Family

This was a very accommodating property. It was perfect for our 14 member family. The access to the river was amazing. We brought large float devices so we could float anytime we wanted. The large tables made it possible for all of us to eat at the same time. The view was absolutely amazing. Very comfortable beds. Love the fire pit with all the andorondeck chairs.

Peaceful Family Getaway by the Creek

Our family of 14 had a great time and we had enough space for all of us. We loved the fire pit outside that we used nightly. The teenage boys loved the creek and did some fly fishing with there waders. My parents and another sister booked the house next to us so we had a great time with all our family. Kids loved the pool table and they even played some flag football outside. One of our favorite parts was the sounds of the creek, very peaceful, if it wasn't so cold I would have stayed on the back porch for hours. House was well stocked in the kitchen. We enjoyed our time away and being with Family. Thank you.

Perfect!

The home is placed on a serene piece of property, tucked in, surrounded by trees and framed by the river. After walking out onto the back deck, the sound of the river which is always present, is very calming. On that deck is an amazing view of the river that runs right by the home. The table can easily hold 18 people. We ate all our meals outside, even when is rained. The property is excellently maintained. There is a great firepit surrounded in a circle with Adirondack chairs. Its a great place to sit around at the end of the day to laugh and enjoy all the company of family and friends. All the rooms are beautiful, well furnished with comfortable beds , pillows and so well decorated. We also were able to have pool tournaments in the basement while the kids watched TV. Just outside is a really large sectional with a hot tub so that everyone can be together and hang out all at the same time watching the river run by. There is a notebook filled with all the information about the area, things to do and places to see. This home is perfect in every way and was such a treat for our family especially after some difficult years, it was just what was needed. The owner always answered all my questions and provided everything needed. Perfect is the best way to describe this vacation home!

About the host

Hosted by Lindy Crapps

Host profile image
I own and manage 5 vacation rental houses (3 on the Chattahoochee River near Helen, 1 in the Florida Keys, and 1 in The Bahamas). I only live about 45 minutes away, so I typically come over to the property about once a week to check on things and make sure all is in order, coordinate repairs, etc.. so this is a well maintained property. My wife and I have 3 kids that grew up playing in the river behind this property.

Why they chose this property

It's brand new, and it has spectacular views of the river. And you will enjoy the river and being on the property that you wont even want to leave to go into Helen. This house is first class and is made for those that like to "treat themselves" when they go on vacation and dont want to skimp on their vacation accommodations.
