Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a great rental for a family during oktoberfest. The kitchen was well stocked and the house had everything we needed. The back deck with the sounds of the Chattahoochee was our absolute favorite. Even though we didn't walk into town from here, we easily could. The rental company was very communicative with us too. We would definitely stay here again.

It was a walkable distance into Helen. The driveway was NOT motorcycle friendly. Although short, it was extremely steep and a bad angle.
