The views of downtown Helen are superb. At Christmas time it glows with lights.
A stunning Bavarian Chalet on the outside and a romantic cabin on the inside.
Cabin in the woods on side of a mountain, just 60 second walk to downtown Helen.
Another aerial showing the unbeatable location to downtown, yet "in the woods".
Very romantic with the floating Jacuzzi tub between the king bed and the ensuite

PLEASE READ OUR ENTIRE LISTING DESCRIPTION SO YOU UNDERSTAND EXACTLY WHAT YOU ARE RENTING - THANKS!

A FEW COMMENTS BEFORE WE TELL YOU ABOUT OUR PLACE;
***We charge a low $60 cleaning fee and have no other host fees. We know how annoying those unexpected pop up fees are when you go to book! The only additional fee you will pay is the VRBO booking fee they charge and they keep. We charge a flat rate of $229 seven days a week and do not charge a higher rate on the weekends. note we do charge higher prices during certain special time such as Christmas, etc. You will get a 5% discount off a weekly rental and a 15% discount off a monthly rental.

***We are Premiere Hosts on VRBO/HomeAway which means we offer spectacular properties and great customer service to our guests. We have over 20 properties and thousands of 5 star reviews online. This cabin has over 50 reviews on VRBO alone.

***This property is a two unit cabin and you are renting the LOWER UNIT which has its own private entrance and deck. This is not a shared space inside, for example; think of a 2 unit condo on nearly half an acre of private wooded land each with their own exterior entries. You can rent both units for large groups or families to sleep a total of 8 people so just ask! The listing number on VRBO for the upper unit is #1391764 so you can see photos and pricing for that unit.

***There are some stairs from the driveway to the cabin entrance, so you must be able to walk up some steps.

***Sorry, but we cannot accept any emotional support or therapy animals due to extreme allergies in our own family.

***Note we share all the coolest secret spots and amazing things to do that 99% of tourists know nothing about with the awesome trip planner document we send every guest. Most guests find it extremely valuable for a super fun stay in Helen. Plus you get 25% off your entire bill at Nacoochee Ziplining and Adventures when booking with us with our special code.

Now on to our specific listing description;.

LOCATION;
The Cutest Cabin in Helen sits just off downtown Main Street and the Chattahoochee River. There is no rental home closer to the epicenter of downtown Helen than our place!!! It is the perfect mix of less than a 60 second walk to all the action right in the epicenter of Downtown Helen yet you are set back just enough for some peace and quiet and to enjoy the lovely views and nature from our multiple elevated decks. Note if you are a very light sleeper you may wish to bring ear plugs as you can hear some music and hustle and bustle from town on the weekends at certain times of the year. We provide a floor fan for some white noise as well. Most people are not bothered at all and it never bothers our family, but just letting you know. The Georgia Alpine Coaster is the latest and greatest attraction to Helen and is a 3 minute walk from our property. Not having to drive into town is a huge plus because of the traffic, pricey and crowded parking issues and of course not worrying about getting behind the wheel after drinking a few of those famous German lagers and stouts. Renting a place in Helen where no car is needed is a HUGE PLUS for most people!!!

THE SPACE;
The two unit air conditioned/heated two-level cabin is 1856 square feet under air and has three separate exterior decks both covered and open offering over 2700 square feet in total of indoor and outdoor living space. The lower unit is an open floor plan and lots of windows. The home sits on just under a half acre with a large private driveway for free secure parking. The lower unit also has its own separate entry with one king bed in an open studio style setting - not an enclosed bedroom, a small kitchen dining table with benches, a full size kitchen, a free standing Jacuzzi tub between the bed and the TV so you can watch TV while in the tub. The open en-suite bathroom is large and please note the shower is open and to the main room with a huge walk in shower made for two people with two shower heads. There is a separate toilet closet for privacy. The lower unit has a covered deck space also. It is beautifully decorated and very romantic for couples. You will find it to be furnished for a very comfy stay with everything you need such as; bedding, towels, linens, extensive kitchen items, a wall mounted large flat screen TV with Roku, Netflix and Primes etc, strong and reliable Wi-Fi, deck furniture and some board games for those occasional rainy days. You can rent both units for large groups or families and that will sleep a total of 8 people so just ask! Again, this listing is for the lower unit which sleeps 4 people. It has one king bed and one queen size blow up mattress with a pump for the floor. You need to slide the kitchen table out of the way and you can stand up the mattress or put on top of king bed during the day so it is out of the way. We offer sleeping for 4 people meaning a couple with two children who don't mind the tight fit as the space is really more geared to couples.

THE DÉCOR AND VIEWS;
The woodwork is gorgeous and the decor is super cute with a nice conceptual design throughout. It is true Bavarian style ski chalet from the outside and a dazzling updated cabin filled with charm and character on the inside. You can hear and see the river from our property. When the leaves drop the elevated views of downtown Helen below our property are amazing.

THE TOWN OF HELEN;
If you have never been to Helen before you are in for a treat. It is a Bavarian style town with great beer halls and bars, restaurants and shopping, nature oriented adventures and a ton of family fun activities. By law all architecture must be Bavarian in style, even the fast food joints! In addition, if you want to explore the surrounding areas the natural wonders are incredible for hiking, waterfalls, kayaking, swimming, fishing, golfing, vineyards, etc. During the summer, people tube right down the river in front of our cabin. There are large lakes with public beach access close by and many festivals throughout the year. Helen is the 3rd most visited town in Georgia despite having only 500 full time residents.

IN SUMMARY;
Without a doubt you will not find a better location or a cuter place than ours, all at an affordable rate compared to those run of the mill motels. We also send out a fantastic 10 page trip planner document to all of our guests covering everything from check in procedures and directions to the best restaurants and beer halls and surrounding adventure stuff to do, plus lots more.

Thank you for considering renting from us!!!

Perfect getaway
We loved our stay here! Location is everything!! The only issue that we had is that we had to go to the Dollar Store to buy sheets due to the amount of fabric softener used on sheets. My husband has very sensitive skin and I neglected to ask the property owner if the linens were scent free- so that was my error.

Everything was good. We could have used some hangers and/or hooks for coats, clothes etc... If you are a light sleeper, the restaurant below plays music late into the night and it has some bass! We loved the location and that is why we booked the place.

Decent room/ great location
Over I have mixed emotions here. Honestly this room needs to be listed as a honeymoon suite at best. So I had my family of 4 with me including a teenage boy. So we walked in and we’re surprised to see a bathtub in the middle of the room. Wow. This is not going to work was my initial thought. I was literally about to book another room for the boys but my older one was ok with the situation. We’ll minus when laying in the king size bed you could see the shower too. Zero privacy. We had to hand a sheet so he could have a little privacy when showering and my wife too. 2nd was there was zero place to put the blow up mattress in the room. I had to move the entire kitchen table . Both of them were flat in the morning. I was pissed off so I had to go buy my son one so he didn’t have to sleep on the floor. It was bad. The best part of this place was location. I’ll have to do my due diligence next time.

Cute place with great location
The place was awesome! The location is great and your communication about the stay and what to do while in town was awesome. The only thing that we would improve would be sweeping the front deck/walkway prior to arrival. We would definitely stay again - maybe rent the upstairs next time :)

This is the cutest cabin in the best spot in Helen. It was tucked into a nice little spot in the woods that made you feel like you were escaping into the woods. But was also close enough to the town that you didn't even need a car! The cabin itself was adorable. I will definitely recommend to everyone and hopefully stay again in the future!

Great location
The location really is fantastic, I think the rating to accommodate 4 is a bit of a stretch. The blowup mattress was terrible, should have brought our own. We knew we were renting a studio, but I guess did not realize that meant no true sitting area. The property is very clean, no complaints there. Kitchen accommodations are the bare minimum. Communication from owners is very direct; clearly have gotten feedback about being condescending because they address it, is say more particular than anything. We’ve got small kids and asked if we could check in early for naps, unfortunately they were unable to accommodate. If we go back as just an adult couple, would stay again.
