Most relaxing mini vacation! The cabin was awesome, so comfortable and inviting. Had everything we needed. The river was probably our favorite thing. We spent a lot of time on the deck just watching and listening to the water. And a plus, everyone we met in Helen was friendly and polite. We loved Betty's Country Store and Cowboys and Angels.
