About this cabin rental
Gaze out at the Chattahoochee River from just about every room. Open the windows and listen to the rippling flow of the water. Breathe the fresh air and enjoy the view from the deck or from the hot tub!
This cabin has fully-equipped kitchen and gas grill on the deck for meals cooked at home. Would you rather eat out? River Retreat is within walking distance to downtown Helen! Should you decide to cook and eat at the cabin, the cabinets are filled with all the cookware, dinnerware and glassware you will need. Bring your favorite coffee pods for the Keurig coffee maker.
The cozy couch is the perfect spot to snuggle up near the gas fireplace on chilly evenings. There is a streaming TV for your entertainment, so don't forget to bring your channel subscription login information.
Bring some quarters with you and relive the 80's with a game of Pac-man or any of the other 28 games on the arcade machine upstairs.

Highly recommend!! The teams communication was on point from the moment I booked. I even had to reschedule the dates and they were more than helpful. The location is prime, its peaceful yet within walking distance. The covered parking area came in handy since it rained a lot during our stay. The cabin is exactly how its pictured...probably even better in person. Easy peasy check out requirements too! We will only stay here when visiting Helen from now on.

We had a wonderful time in this cottage on the River. The hot tub was not working. We reported it and it was fixed that day. Property manager was very helpful and courteous. We would definitely stay here again.

The location is great to get to town, only a few minutes drive. There is a water park directly across from the house. Thankful it was closed for the season. The house needs some updating and we felt like they needed more kitchen items for cooking. There is only 1 dry measuring cup, bowls for mixing, etc The keypad on the door was not working, but the property manager came right there and got us in. The response time was great and she was very helpful! Overall we had an amazing weekend.
