Everything was as represented or better. Very well maintained and tastefully decorated. Owner and her property manager went the extra mile to insure that our stay was comfortable and pleasant. We've been vacatioing in the N. Georgia mountains for many years and rate this property as our best experience. I also caught the largest trout of my life off of their private fishing dock!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

I cannot speak highly enough of this lovely riverfront home. My family and I spent 4 nights here as a family reunion and to revisit beautiful North Georgia. The home is located in a quiet gated community near Helen (about 10 minute drive), and is also within an hour drive to visit many of the best North Georgia scenic areas including Tallulah Gorge, Brasstown Bald, Anna Ruby Falls, and Amicalola Falls. A pleasant surprise to us was North Georgia's developing wine industry, with at least 4 winery tasting rooms located between the riverfront home and Helen. Don't miss stopping by Sautee Nacoochee Vineyards and Yonah Mountain Winery tasting rooms; it makes for a very pleasant way to spend an afternoon after hiking or sightseeing earlier in the day. The riverfront home itself is beautiful inside and out. The kitchen is fully equipped for preparing your meals, and the house is supplied with everything you need for a comfortable stay including extra towels and blankets, local guide books, board games, and many other amenities. They also have tubes and outdoor towels for river play time. My family particularly enjoyed the large outdoor screened porch, and we ate our meals and spent much of our socializing time there (when we weren't relaxing in the hot tub or demonstrating remarkably bad aim at the downstairs pool table). Climate control as well as lots of screened windows and overhead fans allowed for great ventilation and a very comfortable sleeping environment. Do note that the house is multi-story (3 floors) and the paved drive to the riverfront deck is quite steep; while fabulous for most, this home is probably not the best choice for someone who is a fall risk. Cynthia is very prompt and professional to deal with. In planning our stay, all of our questions were answered thoroughly and promptly via email. Having a local contact (Daniel) who welcomed us in person and oriented us to both the house and surrounding area was "icing on the cake". I can't recommend Cynthia and her riverfront home highly enough.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

I spent several days at this gorgeous home with my mother, daughter and her friends to celebrate my daughter's 13th birthday. We had a wonderful experience. The property is secluded yet safe (within a gated community) and the owner provides everything you could possibly want or need. Extras such as laundry detergent, plenty of towels for showers and to use after playing in the river, tubes for the river, and so many more extras I can't possibly list them all! The home is gorgeous and luxurious but is very comfortable and cozy. The bed was so comfortable... I haven't slept that well in months! There are 3 levels with decks on each, and every bedroom is very roomy. Property is near Helen (within 10 minutes driving) and Cleveland. The owner even provides you with a personal "concierge" and handyman, Daniel, who was so friendly and helpful that we wanted to bring him home with us! This was by far my best and favorite vacation home rental experience. We plan to return many times. Book this property and you will not be disappointed!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, people with disabilities, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

This is the perfect place for a quiet getaway. Our family had a great time and the place was very clean and set up well. It is the perfect home away from home. I would highly recommend this place if you love to get away near water to fish, swim, or relax. Perfect at night set up with games and pool table to occupy your time.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, people with disabilities, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

Our party of four senior citizens just spent a few days in the River House. Words cannot adequately express our total enjoyment, but I would like to write a few comments. The owners present the rental as their second home, and with the care and attention to detail in this river house, that is exactly what it is: a home. I had several contacts with the owner prior to renting, and I always got a courteous, kind, timely response which was very much appreciated. The owners have gone above and beyond what one expects in a rental, and the time spent at the river house makes one feel so comfortable and relaxed, it is almost as if one is at home. Not only was the owner a wonderful person with whom to deal, the caretaker was personable and extremely helpful. I'll just do a listing below of what we found. The owners' presentation to potential renters is accurate except, upon arrival, you'll find it even better than presented: beautiful property, gorgeous home, very spacious, many windows bringing the outside in making it bright and airy, a private park on the Chattahoochee River with a hammock, grill, horseshoes picnic table, 6 tubes for turbing down the river which is easily accessible from the property, a beautiful deck right on the river, fishing fun, a little sandy beach area, all along the back of the property...right on the river. A huge screened-in porch with two ceiling fans is the perfect place for observing the many birds which come to the feeder attached to the outside of the porch. The two ceiling fans with their gentle humming will lull one right off to sleep. The only other noises are the gurgling sounds of the river and sounds of nature...SO peaceful. There are decks on every floor. From inside guests can watch deer feeding at dusk, sometimes one or two, sometimes as many as five. The hot tub and pool table are great. There is a washing machine along with a dryer, kitchen cabinets are labeled as to contents, linens and paper products were provided, BATH ROBES WERE IN BEDROOM CLOSETS FOR YOUR USE, small containers of shampoo, cream rinse, and soap were furnished along with hair dryers, televisions, movies to watch, books to read, the fully equipped kitchen, and a short distance to Helen and Clarkesville, both small towns and fun to visit...PLUS BUNCHES MORE. We are so hoping to return in the future, and when we do, we'll just stay put. God made a beautiful world, and this river house reminded us once again of that gift.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

We recently stayed at the Riverfront Home for a relaxing vacation. The house is everything you could want it to be. Decks and dock are a nice addition. The hot tub was bliss. Helen is a really neat little town. There are a lot of shops and restaurants which were all very good. I did not find items expensive. They provide a Hiking Georgia trail book for use which we used a lot. Another hidden gem was renting a pontoon boat on Lake Burton. All in all, we'd definitely make plans to visit again. There's really lots to do! One week did not give us enough time.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, girls getaway, sightseeing.

Had a super weekend at River House. We didn't need anything but a change of clothes and our food. Cynthia has thought of everything. The paved road to the river is quite steep, but a good cardio workout ! We had alot of fun watching deer, catching fish, and relaxing in the hot tub!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

My family frequently rents homes from owners. This is one of the best and well equipped homes we have rented. The owners have thought of everything and it is so very well maintained. The home is on a large piece of property and feels very private. We enjoyed fishing from the deck and eating supper from the screened porch. It is close enough to Helen, GA and to waterfall hikes. Loved Raven Cliff Falls. We are already planning to visit again or ask to rent another one of their properties. Perfect for couples or families traveling together because of the house layout. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. You cannot possibly be disappointed.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, girls getaway, sightseeing.

The accomodations at the River House was great. I don't think there was anything we needed, that we either didn't bring or have at the house. I was pleasantly surprised to discover all the amenities to enjoy during our visit. You have done an excellent job utilitizing your river lot and the paved driveway down to the park/river was much appreciated. We enjoyed the tubing, feeding the huge trout, picinic area and the swimming hole. The park was a real hit with the girls. It was exactly what we came up there to do. We needed another day to finish playing with all the stuff that was provided. We will be visiting again in the future. I've already sent the info to one of the girls' sister. Thanks for being so kind and so easy to work with and for helping us have a "Great Weekend"!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

We loved this place! Words can not express the beauty of this property. Our families had a wonderful time here and hope to return again and again. The pictures do not prepare you for the actual quality that this property possesses, however, at the same time it feels how a home should feel like. Cynthia was extremly accomodating and Daniel was so helpful. We have no complaints other than the stay was too short! BeBe is a great host as well!Did you find this review helpful?
