About this property
Helen Riverside Cabin-Chattahoochee River-Walk to Town
Unlike most cabins in the area, this cabin is right in Alpine Helen. Located on the Chattahoochee River, it's just a short walk into downtown Alpine Helen and the Oktoberfest Festhalle. Park your car and walk to town. For about the same price as a motel suite, you get 2 big bedrooms, living/dining rooms, full kitchen, washer & dryer and two jetted bathtubs. Best of all, you get the privacy and quite a motel room could never offer. Each bedroom has one queen sized bed. The fully equipped kitchen has solid surface countertops & ceramic tile floors, microwave, and dishwasher. There is a gas grill on the riverside deck. Make Helen Riverside Cabin your luxury 'base camp' for exploring all of Northeast Georgia. Right next door we also have the four bedroom Helen Riverside Retreat, VRBO property #2447604 https://www.vrbo.com/2447604?noDates=true. If you have a really big family group, rent both and be side by side!
What's in the cabin.: All cooking utensils and linens are provided. There are jetted bath tubs in each bath with a two person jetted tub in the downstairs bath. The floors in the baths are also ceramic tile. Towels and linens are provided. There is a flat screen smart TV in the living room and flat smart TVs in the bedrooms. Free WiFi service is included. The owners live in Helen, so if there are any problems, we'll be there to make it right.
The covered riverside deck looks over the Chattahoochee River. The street side view looks over horse pastures and toward historic Hamby Mountain. Located within walking distance to restaurants, shops and activities in Helen, Helen's Riverside Cabin is also just minutes from Unicoi State Park, Anna Ruby Falls, the Old Sautee Store, Innsbruck Golf Course, Appalachian Trail, Lake Burton, Lake Chatuge, and much more. Let this be your luxury 'base camp' for exploring all of Northeast Georgia. The Chattahoochee River flows under just 50' from our cabin!
The parking area is limited to a maximum of four cars. No pets. No smoking or vaping inside the cabin. For the security of the property and safety of our guests, there are security cameras outside the house, but there are absolutely no cameras inside. To avoid additional charges, please be accurate with the number of guests in your party when making your reservation. Understating the number of guests can result in an additional charge.
