Everything from the booking, to the communication, to the stay was easy and stress free. The house was fully stocked, cozy, and a comfortable stay for our family. We were warned about the spa issues but I don’t think the owner knew about the jacuzzi tub not working because the communication was so great. I would definitely book this place again because it felt like a home away from home.

Beautiful House, perfect location

The house and property were just gorgeous. The house was very clean, and had everything we needed. Amanda was great to communicate with. She gave recommendations on some of the best places to eat and the must do’s when visiting Helen for the first time. I would definitely recommend staying at their perfect place.

Lovely cabin right on the river. Our family of 5 and my father enjoyed our stay. We fished, enjoyed the porch, the cozy cabin and loved the campfire pit. The cabin was well stocked with new quality cookware and utensils. The cabin was clean and have comfortable beds and bedding. Amanda the host was responsive and available if needed. The cabin was easy to get to and less than a 2 mile drive to downtown Helen.

This cabin was perfect for us. Close to downtown Helen but far enough away to be relaxing. The cabin was spotless and the amenities were excellent. The only distraction was Hwy 75. You could not ask for a better communicator than this homeowner. She answered every question immediately. Excellent.

Regained my peace

The house was everything we could ask for. Getting up each day to spend an hour just watching and listening to the River sipping coffee was fantastic. Same for after dinner.Secluded enough for our peace and close enough to everything busy.Amanda was very responsive and on top of everything.We talked about going back in the fall!

The perfect spot! We put our tubes in at the house and floated all the way to downtown. About a 2 hour float. Great spot for fishing. My son caught a little bass and we saw multiple trout. We loved sitting on the porch in the rocking chairs. The kitchen has wonderful new pans and utensils which is rare in a rental. Loved the comfy sofa with the huge tv in the living room. Bedding was super soft. We will be back!

40th Anniversary

We choose this place to stay in Helen, Georgia. We were celebrating our 40th Anniversary. The house is exactly how described and the owner is the easiest to work with and answers any and all questions you may have in a quick manner. Not a complaint because it’s beautiful and we loved the sound of the river by the house but there is a main highway as well. It can get very busy. The people passing were always waving and blowing the horn. lol We would definitely choose this place again if we are ever back in the Helen area!!

We enjoyed our stay in this cottage for our 30th anniversary. The host was so hospitable! She had a bottle of champagne and a beautiful card waiting when we walked through the door. The rose petals on the bed when we walked in to our bedroom showed how much thought she had put in to our visit. We will be returning soon. Everything was perfect and just as listed!
