About the host

Hosted by Billy Maynard

Host profile image
We live in Statham, GA and own a learning center, Kidz Academy, located in Winder, GA. We take a very hands-on approach to managing our business, therefore we work very long days. When we are fortunate enough to take time off for pleasure we enjoy visiting our cabin, the Chattahoochee Charmer. We also enjoy camping. So when our cabin is rented we are camping and exploring the area in our Jeep Wrangler with the top down. We have two boys and they also have Jeep Wranglers and enjoy camping with us. We have been visiting Helen and enjoying Oktoberfest since 1977. Our entire family would all meet in Helen for Oktoberfest...great times were had and great memories were made! Everyone should experience Oktoberfest in Helen!

Why they chose this property

We rented the Chattahoochee Charmer the first time nine years ago and we fell in love with it! We rented it four more times and it was always our dream of owning this cabin! When we camped in the area we would always drive our Jeep by the Chattahoochee Charmer continuing to dream. In May of 2014 we were making our traditional drive by and noticed the For Sale sign in the yard. Our dream came true in June 2014. The Chattahoochee Charmer is our place to go to relax and to continue to make amazing memories with our family and friends. If you every stay at the Chattahoochee Charmer you will never stay at another cabin in Helen!

What makes this property unique

The most unique benefit of the Chattahoochee Charmer is the location. The cabin is located on the Chattahoochee River within a short walk to downtown Helen. You have incredible rivers views from all of the bedrooms, the family room, the hot tub, the huge deck and the outdoor patio and fire pit. The river bank offers a unique beach that allows easy access to the river to wade or swim. The cabin is located in an area of the river that offers the best trout fishing in White County...the largest trout caught in White County was reeled in near our cabin. Everyone that stays at our cabin LOVES that you can walk to downtown Helen...within 5-7 minutes you can enjoy all of the activities in downtown Helen including Oktoberfest, shopping, restaurants, coffee shops, candy shops and much more!
