About this property

Helen Hilltop Elegant Retreat - Hot Tub, Wifi, in gated Innsbruck golfclub

Perched at the crest of one of Helen's curving peaks, Hillside Elegance offers you a spacious multi-level home of over 3000 square feet. This beautiful retreat boasts soaring wood ceilings, and real wood floors. The two story living room offers comfy rustic couches, a cut stone gas fireplace, huge flat screen TV and double door access out to one of three sumptious decks that span the back of the house, enclosed by the trees of a scenic wooded hillside on the 10th fairway of the Innsbruck golf course.


The main deck level boasts a quiet reading nook, bistro seating for your morning coffee, and a pair of adirondack chairs for that frosty afternoon brew or chilled glass of wine. Prepare a meal in the fully equipped kitchen with warm would designer cabinets and black appliances, or sizzle some steaks on the charcoal grill on the lower deck. The elegant dining room connects to the kitchen, and offers a sunny spot to sit in the adjoining window alcove.

The spacious master bedroom is conveniently located on the main floor, with its beautiful rustic pine furniture, walk-in closet, and huge master bathroom with double sink, large shower, and separate toilet enclosure. The master bedroom opens with double glass doors onto the main level screened deck. The second-floor bedroom sports its own private bathroom, shared only when extra guests use the twin and trundle in the sunny loft.

The lower level is accessed by a flight of carpeted stairs with two more private bedrooms, and a shared bath off the impressive game room with its pool table, large TV, wet bar kitchenette, sleeper sofa, and double door access to the covered hot tub deck.

Perfect for an extended family gathering, spacious lodging for a wedding, a golf outing for the guys, or a reasonably-priced couples weekend! Why stay in a hotel, when you can relax in this beautiful hilltop retreat?

Restaurants and shopping are just minutes away, with all the the personal comforts that only a home can provide when you want to relax.

Come sample local wines at the Habersham or Yonah Mountain wineries, browse for antiques, sample a hand-tossed pizza or freshly-roasted coffee at Nacoochee Village, or dine in Helen overlooking the Chattahoochee River. The horse-drawn carriages are a perfect way to see the town, and local state parks provide gorgeous waterfalls and tons of hiking opportunities.

Have more than 12 guests? I can recommend other locations on the same block.

Fun weekend
We actually didnt stay at this particular location due to an issue with the water heater. The owner contacted me a few days prior to our trip and informed me the water heater was out and wouldnt be fixed prior to our stay. She did offer one of her other houses in the same area as an option for out kids and friends. The house we stayed at was great and we enjoyed our time there.

Great fit for our crew!
We have used this home several times. We have been going go Helen for years and its our favorite to stay in during Oktoberfest! Very convienent to Helen! I will note that we were not very satisfied with the cookware. Many things in the home needs updating but most of all, the cookware. For a home that sleeps so many, the pots there were not large enough to accommodate us and they were falling apart. We will definitely be back! We hope some updates will be made. Thanks Sue!

Good For Groups
Cost and location were great. Layout was very good for multiple families. We enjoyed the pool table and hot tub. Very quiet and well maintained neighborhood. Owner was also very responsive. That being said, listing states check in is after 4PM and after driving 9 hours, I expected to be able to enter the property at that time. However, 5 minutes before check in, owner informed me check in would be after 5 PM...ok, not what I wanted to hear but I can deal with that, well at 5:30 PM the cleaning crew was still there. When cleaner finally finished and we were able to enter the property, we found dishes in the dishwasher and wet towels in the washing machine. Mattresses were also very uncomfortable and need updating. Overall, it was a pleasant stay but the few inconveniences did take away from the experience.

Family Fun in Helen
We enjoyed our stay here very much. There were 6 of us, and we all had our own bedrooms with plenty of space! The bathrooms were very conveniently located. We had our own privacy if wanted. The pool table was enjoyed very much, as was the hot tub. Great house for a large family. We enjoyed cooking in the cute kitchen. The only thing needed there is some new, nice pans. Also needs new chairs for the dining room table. Overall we really had a nice time!

Family Vacation July 16 - 21, 2021
This location is very convenient, plenty of room for everyone. Its just a short drive to activities in Helen. We saw deer, turkeys, rabbits, squirrels and a bear. I will advise other renters to give the names, vehicle make and color to the owner prior to your arrival so that the guard at the gate gets the information at least four hours before you get there. It makes checking in much smoother. Check in time is after 4 p.m. - I arrived at 5:20 p.m., the guard didn't have my info and housekeeping was just leaving the premises. My patience was thin after driving 12 hours to get there. That's my only negative about the whole trip. However I would consider renting this house again. Overall, we had a great time.

Fireworks and Deer and Bears, oh my!
We had the pleasure of staying at this location for the week of July 4th. Everything was as advertised and better. New TV, screened-in porch, great hot tub and more. There was plenty of space for each of our group of 9. The only incident that gave us “paws” was a morning encounter with a juvenile black bear attempting to, and successfully, break in to the “bear-proof” garbage bin. But, we ran him off with a harsh scolding and never saw him again. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a spacious, amenity-full rental in the quiet, gated Innsbruck golf community on the mountain - just a stone’s throw from the hustling, bustling town of Helen, GA.

Family Vacation
Overall we had a really good vacation. Checkin was delayed from stated time in house listing due to the cleaning crew having 2 houses to clean. There was plenty of room for the 10 of us to spread out and sleep. We enjoyed the pool table and the hot tub. The house is located within a few minutes to town. We will be back again!

We had a lovely stay and enjoyed the feeling of Christmas all around this house! All of the beds were comfortable! Our biggest disappointment was that the hot tub was not functional, and that was one of the reasons we chose this property.

About the host

Host profile image
Although we live in a very desireable vacation area, Palm Beach County Florida, we long for a change of weather, and finally were able to purchase this beautiful home in Helen. Where we get to zip line, hike tube, wine taste horseback ride and shop.

Why they chose this property

After surviving several Hurricanes, we decided we needed to NOT HAVE ALL OUR EGGS IN THE SAME (Palm Beach) BASKET! So I remembered Helen as being one of my favorite family destinations that was safe from hurricanes. I set out to find a great house that was easily accessible, without a steep driveway, in town close to the fun, with city water.

What makes this property unique

I wanted a safe place where the house would not be destroyed by vandals if it was empty and since it is in a upscale gated golf development with sleeping space for 12 and high ceilings beautiful distressed wood, 4 porches a hot tub, and fire pit. This was the one!
