The owners were gracious enough to open their home to my family due hurricane Milton. It was very last minute and they were able to accommodate us! The location is amazing! We walked to everything and even went fishing in the river. So grateful to have stayed here!
Very clean property and beautiful property right on the water very quite road I did meet the property owner and he was so nice and helpful. Beautiful horses right across the road.
Awesome family spot right on the river with plenty of games and outside spaces. We had a wonderful family get together and the nephews loved it! The kitchen was very well equipped with a nice gas grill as well. We all said we hope to make it back home again soon!
We visit Helen every June for a long weekend. We truly enjoyed staying at this property. Had everything we needed and was in a great riverfront location. Walking distance to Helen is a great plus.
Great stay. Everything was clean and spacious enough for 7 adults. For me it was the best stocked kitchen with pots, pans, plate, cups, utensils, etc… of any VRBO I have ever stayed in.
It was the perfect property to enjoy family and celebrate a special birthday. Family living in the area could drop by and visit. Living in Texas it was a special time. We were away from the hustle and bustle of Helen, but only a short walk to enjoy the festivities. Being Thanksgiving week, it was quicker to walk than drive and pay for parking. Was even able to visit family graves in Tocooa. Hosts were so accommodating and provided many amenities.
The cabin is amazing. With in walking distance to everything. Stayed here for my 50th birthday with my parents and a few friends. The overall set up is perfect . Gorgeous property. We definitely would stay here again.
Wonderful property and location! Had everything we needed and plenty of room. We love Helen and Oktoberfest. This property will be on our list for future visits!!
There is something so soothing when you awaken to the sound of river water. This house was so relaxing. The big porch facing the river was great to sit and relax. For cooking on site there are plenty pots,pans and dinnerware for our group. This is the best ever location, house and vaca for us!
We loved our house, very spacious and the property was beautiful. Having family also stay at the cabin next door was perfect too! 10 out of 10 experience!!
Great stay! Right next to the river. Loved it. No complaints!
Would rent again!
