Great stay for family

My mom is staying with us for the summer in Columbus, GA and I wanted to take a short road trip somewhere cute in Georgia that would work for our dog and baby too so we settled on Helen. This was the perfect place to stay. Very quiet and comfortable plus a short drive to town and other attractions. The screened in back patio was such a nice place to sit in the morning and drink tea while nursing my baby. Loved the guest book and being able to see others recommendations/experiences. The home was nice and had plenty of room. It was nice that a highchair and playpen was available although we did bring our own portable high chair and a play yard for our daughter to sleep in. Also appreciated there being dog bowls! It was a great stay for the whole family!
