PLEASE READ OUR ENTIRE LISTING DESCRIPTION SO YOU UNDERSTAND EXACTLY WHAT YOU ARE RENTING - THANKS!!!
A FEW COMMENTS BEFORE WE TELL YOU ABOUT OUR PLACE;
We keep things very transparent with our billing so you have no surprises when you go to pay and book your stay. We have a low cleaning fee and no other host fees. The only other fee you pay is to VRBO/HomeAway and that is a fee they charge and keep. We offer a 5% discount for weekly stays and 20% discounts for monthly stays. Note we do charge higher rates for some special times of the year such as Christmas, etc. We have been Premier Hosts on VRBO/Homeaway since 2016. This cabin has over 100 reviews on VRBO/HomeAway alone and we have thousands of reviews online with all of our 20+ properties.
Our property is a two unit cabin and you are renting the UPPER UNIT which has its own private entrance and deck. This is not a shared space inside, for example; think of a 2 unit condo on nearly half an acre of private wooded land with each unit having it's own exterior entry. You can rent both units for large groups or families to sleep a total of 8 people so just ask! The listing number on VRBO/HomeAway for the lower unit is #1391765 so you can see photos and pricing for that unit. There are some stairs leading to the cabin entrance from the driveway. Sorry, but we cannot accept any service or therapy animals due to extreme allergies in our own family. *** Note we share all the coolest secret spots and amazing things to do that 99% of tourists know nothing about with the awesome trip planner document we send every guest, plus you get 25% off your entire bill at Nacoochee Ziplining and Adventures when booking with us with our special code. Now on to our specific listing description;. Most guests find it extremely valuable for a super fun stay in Helen.
LOCATION;
The Cutest Cabin in Helen sits just off downtown Main Street and the Chattahoochee River. There is no rental home closer to the epicenter of downtown Helen than our place!!! It is the perfect mix of less than a 60 second walk to all the action right in the epicenter of Downtown Helen yet you are set back just enough for some peace and quiet and to enjoy the lovely views and nature from our multiple elevated decks. Note if you are a very light sleeper you may wish to bring ear plugs as you can hear some hustle and bustle from town on the weekends at certain times of the year. We provide a floor fan for some white noise as well. Most people are not bothered at all and it never bothers our family, but just letting you know. The Georgia Alpine Coaster is the latest and greatest attraction to Helen and is a 2 minute walk from our property. Not having to drive into town is a huge plus because of the traffic, pricey and crowded parking issues and of course not worrying about getting behind the wheel after drinking a few of those famous German lagers and stouts. Renting a place in Helen where no car is needed is a HUGE PLUS for most people!!!
THE SPACE;
The air conditioned/heated two-level cabin is 1856 square feet under air and has three separate exterior decks both covered and open offering over 2700 square feet in total of living space. The upper unit is bright and open and over 1100 sq ft in size. The home sits on just under a half acre with a large private driveway for free secure parking. The upper level also has its own separate entry with one huge bedroom connected to a very large en-suite. Part of the bathroom has a large beautiful corner Jacuzzi tub, big glass door walk in shower and sink. In addition, there is a toilet closet with access from the kitchen and the master bedroom with a second sink. The cabin has a full kitchen, kitchen table and chairs and a huge great room that is totally open to the kitchen. There is a stack-able washer and dryer for free guest usage. The upper unit has a great deck space along with an elevated private balcony. It is beautifully done, open concept, bright and airy with tons of windows with nice views. You will find it to be furnished for a very comfy stay with everything you need such as; bedding, towels, linens, extensive kitchen items, two TVs are set-up with Roku along with a specific Netflix account for our renters, Wi-Fi, deck furniture and some board games for those occasional rainy days. You can rent both units for large groups or families and that will sleep a total of 8 people so just ask! Again, this listing is for the upper unit which sleeps 4 people. It has a king bed and a queen size blow up mattress with pump for the living room floor if you bring 3-4 people.
THE DÉCOR AND VIEWS AND PARKING;
Without hesitation we can tell you our cabin is stunningly beautiful with outstanding décor and conceptual design throughout. The great room is wide open and gorgeous with beautiful wood craftsmanship and décor along with gleaming hardwood floors with custom design work. The ceilings are vaulted with sky lights giving it a bigger feel than the actual size. It is true Bavarian style ski chalet from the outside and an extraordinary updated cabin filled with charm and character on the inside. You can hear and see the river from our property. The expansive downtown views are excellent year round, but when the leaves drop the elevated views of downtown Helen below our property are amazing. There is one vehicle allowed per rental, not per guest. Also note no RV's or trailers due to steep driveway entrance.
NO SMOKING/ VAPING / DRUGS / PARTYING / LOUD BEHAVIOR OR MUSIC;
Nothing against smokers or partiers, but none of that is ever allowed in our place or outside on our property. Helen is a both a party town and a family town and we cater to families and couples looking to relax and chill. Sure have a few drinks, but going overboard is not cool with us. If you are the party group please pick another place to stay and there are plenty that do not mind that type of fun in town. PLEASE respect this or you will be asked to leave the property without a refund and/or charged extra fees for clean up, smoke removal, etc. We unfortunately now must mention this in our listing due to one bad experience with a group last year.
THE TOWN OF HELEN;
If you have never been to Helen before you are in for a treat. It is a Bavarian style town with great beer halls and bars, restaurants and shopping, nature oriented adventures and a ton of family fun activities. By law all architecture must be Bavarian in style, even the fast food joints! In addition, if you want to explore the surrounding areas the natural wonders are incredible for hiking, waterfalls, kayaking, swimming, fishing, golfing, vineyards, etc. During the summer, people tube right down the river in front of our cabin. There are larges lakes with public beach access close by and many festivals throughout the year. Helen is the 3rd most visited town in Georgia despite having only 500 full time residents.
IN SUMMARY;
Without a doubt you will not find a better location or a cuter place than ours, all at an affordable rate compared to those standard run of the mill hotels. We also send out a fantastic 10 page trip planner document to all of our guests covering everything from check in procedures and directions to the best restaurants and beer halls and surrounding adventure stuff to do, plus lots more.
Thank you for considering renting from us!!!
