beautiful property, easy to find, close to Helen

This property is clean and quiet. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Check in and out was very easy. Compared to some VRBOs where you just about have to clean the property before you leave. Would highly recommend.

Great host. Great space. Great location.

Just off the strip next to really great restaurants. Peaceful and quiet with a big space for our family to enjoy the tranquility of Helen GA. Fantastic restaurants two blocks away. Fantastic internet to research the next day. We had a great time. Very clean and new townhouse. Would stay again.

Definitely recommend!

The location was perfect. Beds were comfortable. I never could get ahold of anyone to tell when we checked out, because I couldn’t get a signal from the Valhalla Resort - where we had a fabulous breakfast!! Might suggest a few more drinking glasses. But that wasn’t a big deal since we were only there 1 night. Will definitely be back!

Nice

Nice. Just very plain and not as equipped as other locations, but clean. Not sure on which unit was ours when we arrived, not mentioned in the arrival directions Blinds on the front door broken. Probably would not return.

Excellent location

The townhouse was very clean and the location was great. It was very quiet and easily accessed. Our only suggestions would be more wash cloths and towels (1 of each for 2 days is really not enough) and clothes hangers.

Great location, great host, great town!!

We met up with some family for a reunion. This was less than a mile to the city center walking. This has plenty of room and all of the essentials you need. It was nice to have a place away from the hustle and bustle to relax. Oktoberfest is a blast, I highly recommend visiting this town and staying with this host!

Need to update their locks

Their lock system is antiquated and very inconvenient. Locking a single key in a padlock hanging on a door handle is nice for realtors, but shouldn’t be used for rentals. Security code doors are much convenient for all. Otherwise, Vince place with a pleasant location and plenty of parking.

Oktoberfest in Helen!

This was a great listing! It was very clean and spacious. The location was perfect for a short 1 mile walk to Main Street in Helen. The beds were very comfortable as well. Plenty of parking and a very quiet neighborhood.

Just what was needed

The first thing I look for in a Vrbo is cleanliness! This place fit the bill- and I have high standards! Additionally- we were allowed to check in early which was MUCH appreciated! Location is great- not on the beaten path - but close enough to everything! Appreciated the Roku and ability to log into our Netflix too!!
