About this property

Luxury Riverfront Retreat | Hot Tub | Walk to Town

Viking Luxury Rental's invites you to one of the most unique riverfront homes in Helen — now featuring a private hot tub and covered pergola overlooking the Chattahoochee River.

Located directly on the river and just a short walk to downtown, this spacious multi-level home is designed for unforgettable group stays, with an incredible 2,688 sq ft covered outdoor entertainment area complete with string lights, fire pit, fireplace, bar, grill, and direct river access.

Unwind in the hot tub after a day exploring Helen, then gather under the pergola for drinks, games, and fireside evenings by the water.

Inside, the home features a dramatic two-story vaulted living space with large windows overlooking the river. The main level includes a fully equipped kitchen, living room with fireplace, and pool table — perfect for entertaining.

The home offers 5 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, with king beds in every bedroom, along with vanity mirrors and large smart TVs for added comfort and convenience.

On the front of the house, the screened-in porch offers a cozy place to relax, read, or enjoy your morning coffee.

Beneath the home, the expansive covered entertainment area includes ring toss, cornhole, an extra refrigerator, bar setup, grill, and a large fireplace — all set along the river and surrounded by warm string lights.

Located within walking distance to downtown Helen, you can easily explore local shops, restaurants, and attractions, including Betty’s Country Store.

Guests have access to the entire home during their stay. There are three locked closets (one on each floor) used for storage.

Security Hold
Like hotels, we require a valid credit card for a refundable security and damage hold during your stay.

Travel Insurance
Unless there is a mandatory evacuation order, reservations continue as scheduled without refunds or discounts. We recommend Cancel For Any Reason travel insurance to protect your trip. If needed, we are happy to assist with documentation.

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.
