Wonderful property next to the river. We enjoyed eating breakfast on the screened in porch and sitting on the deck with the gas fire pit in the evening. We would definitely recommend staying here. The house has all the comforts of home and it's in a very quiet neighborhood. I guess the only downside is the extremely windy mountain road driving to and from Helen.

Extremely clean, comfortable and very well stocked with everything you need. Beds are very comfortable, living room is so cozy. The back porch was beautiful and the deck on the river stream was so peaceful and perfect. Highly recommend. The Chatuge Lake is breathtaking. Helen was fun. The area is just beautiful.

This is the second time we stayed at this property. Each visit was peaceful, relaxing, and comfortable. We found plenty to do with a twenty minute or less ride. The property is fully furnished with extras (k-cups and toiletries come to mind) available to you. Checking in is a breeze. The neighborhood is quiet and anyone we saw was friendly. The property definitely earns five stars.

Great location if you wanna be on the river, it was great to sit there and listen to the river. It was a little low when we were there so no fishing but that’s OK. It was still beautiful. The cabin has everything you could possibly need and it’s very nice. We enjoyed it a lot. I hope to come back.

The house is beautiful but in need of some updates being an older home, especially in both bathrooms.. There are some maintenance issues that need attention, such as the water control knob in the master shower sends water directly to the showier head and none to the tube. The master bedroom TV has some internet issues that caused us to have to call the hosts for assistance. But most of all, the house needs either curtains or shades in the Livingroom to provide some privacy from view from the outside. It is a neighborhood setting so there is some traffic back and forth. The furniture around the fire table needs painting and one chair needs repair. When we arrived the yard needed mowing. On the positive side, The house sits right on the river, and I mean right on it! There are just a few steps from the beautiful back screened porch down past the grill and fire table to the water. The view of the river is fabulous. The kitchen is small but has everything you need. There are ample towels and linens, and the beds are super comfortable. The sunroom/bedroom is really a nice addition to the sleeping arrangements. The back screened porch is wonderful with plenty of seating for meals, playing games, or just sitting and listening to the river flow by.. The furniture and fixtures are comfortable and unique to this home. We were a bit disappointed the next door neighbors were so close as they are in subdivisions, so if you are looking for a rustic mountain setting, this isn't it.

Wonderful relaxing stay

Everything about this rental was A. Beautiful home, with all amenities. Owner did not spare a dime when providing everything that could possibly make a wonder vacation. Just sitting and listening to the running water of the river would have been enough, but great beds and linens, fully equipped kitchen and I can’t forget that wonderful bed swing on the closed in porch!!! . Just a small piece of heaven.
