Relax in the peaceful screened porch with new furniture while overlooking the sights and sounds of the river cascading over the rocks. It is perfectly located for convenient access to everything Downtown Helen offers with the added bonus of being nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains! You may want to take a refreshing dip in the river; go next door to the Helen Festhalle for bingo and dancing; cross the street for miniature golf; head up to Main St. for a horse drawn carriage ride and shopping; take a hike on one of the many trails close by; or take a drive through the beautiful North Georgia Mountains.

The Welcoming Screened Porch opens into the large main living area that includes a well-equipped Kitchen with Granite Counters, Stainless Steel appliances and more, plus plenty of seating around the table in case you decide to eat in instead of sampling the many delicious restaurants around town!

This was our 3rd NYE in Helen and our best yet! We loved the rental house - especially the location and Christmas decor. We felt right at home and definitely want to stay here again next year!

Our experience was lovely. The location was really serene with river running along the back of the house, exactly what we needed to relax. The enclosed patio overlooking all the action but keeping us away from it was also a plus. Sometimes the street got noisy but it didn’t last long. The decor touches were on point throughout the house, especially well decorated for Christmas, with a tree each room. Plush linens, blankets and cushions. The bathrooms are older but clean. The kitchen had all the supplies we needed. Loved the secured entrance to the house via the door code. We sat by the river on our last day. Great stay overall and professional hosts.

Loved this unit in the past. This unit is upstairs and we didn’t have any one in the downstairs unit last visit this time we did and any food they cooked the smell came into our place. We had an issue with our shower head falling off and they came and fixed it then our refrigerator started leaking all over the floor we used our bath towels to prevent it from getting the rug wet again and rung them out to keep the water at bay. We called a couple of times and when we left there still were towels around the fridge it never got fixed. The floor around the fridge is damaged so I am thinking this might be an on going problem. If I owned a home and used a management company for my maintenance I would be upset at the condition of my floor. We love Helen and frequent it. We were excited to go back to this place after trying others but might think twice about this place next time.
