About the host
Hosted by danielle
We’re a fun-loving, easygoing couple who truly enjoy hosting and meeting new people from all over. We love great food, good wine, and bringing people together to create memorable experiences. We split our time between Georgia and South Florida, and are currently working on building a home in The Bahamas. We’re always happy to share recommendations for things to do, places to eat, and hidden gems around Helen to help make your stay unforgettable.
Why they chose this property
Located directly on the banks of the Chattahoochee River in downtown Helen, the River House offers a rare combination of true riverfront living and walkable access to town. Now featuring a private hot tub and covered pergola overlooking the river, the outdoor experience is just as memorable as the location.
We designed this home to be a comfortable and welcoming place for friends and family to gather, relax, and enjoy everything Helen has to offer — whether you’re soaking in the hot tub, enjoying fireside evenings under the pergola, or spending time together in the spacious indoor living areas.
With expansive indoor gathering spaces and a one-of-a-kind covered outdoor entertainment area along the river, it’s the perfect setting to unwind, connect, and make lasting memories.

What makes this property unique
We like to provide an environment where you want for nothing. If it's something we enjoy on vacation or think we would want you are likely to find it in our home left for you. Take a look around while you are there and see how many added extra's you can find.
