What makes this property unique
CONVENIENCE! Mt. Retreat is located in downtown Helen and within walking distance to all shops and restaurants. Park your car in front of the condo and you are set. No need to be concerned about traffic or where to park. Betty's Country Store is across the street; pick up the things you need, or forgot to pack; whether it's band-aids, snacks, drinks, lunch or something great from the fresh meat counter to grill for supper.
