We had a wonderful and relaxing time at Aliona’s alpine chalet. I would definitely stay here again with our family. We really enjoyed the space, as we had teenagers and a toddler with us and there was plenty of space for everyone. Had everything we needed to even make Thanksgiving dinner in the kitchen. Loved the hot tub and proximity to town. 10/10

It was a great space close to town. I walked into town every morning. The bedrooms are smaller than they appear on the pictures, but comfortable. The upstairs loft, the basement, and the patios are all great common spaces. We enjoyed having the firepit and sitting outside. Overall, would highly recommend.

Nice living space for large group

We enjoyed our stay here. There was plenty of room for a group of ten. We enjoyed the pool table and foosball table. We did end of driving to downtown, since it was a bit too far to walk in the cold, but the location was still in a nice spot. It was a very quiet location, too. The host communicated well and check-in and check-out were very simple. Overall great place to stay when visiting Helen, Ga.

Father's Day getaway

My family and I took a trip to Helen, GA for a Father's Day getaway. The cabin was great. The pictures posted online are accurate. The cabin was very clean and has everything you could think of. The Host provided more than enough towels, linens, blankets, laundry detergent, and cleaning supplies. You name it, she most likely provided it. The kitchen has anything you would need during your stay. The host was GREAT! She responded to any and all questions before, during, and at check out within minutes. If you are like us and have to sleep with a fan, there were at least three fans in the cabin. The beds and pillows were comfy. The location is very close to the main road/town and small grocery store. Highly recommend booking this place!! 5 stars! Now I have to convince my husband another to make another trip some time this winter.
