We had an amazing time at this cabin. From sitting on the porch watching hummingbirds to playing horseshoe’s by the river. Fully stocked kitchen and outdoor grill was great for us to cook so we could stay and enjoy the cabin even more. Close to downtown and great for walks. Would highly recommend.

The property was so clean. The host gave very clear info and our trip couldn’t have been easier. This is a cabin that I’d actually return to, and even live in. The sounds of the river while drinking coffee was so peaceful. We slept so good. Location to town is great. Highly recommend!

We had a nice weekend in the mountains in this property. It’s in an excellent location – right on the Chattahoochee River and just a few minutes from Helen. There are a lot of fun things to do like build a fire, play horseshoes, arcade games, and a hot tub. The beds were comfortable. I would definitely go there again!
