Incredibly clean and safe. Free parking was great and you’re still within walking distance of everything you would likely want to do in downtown Helen. The kitchen is well equipped and nicer and newer than many we have seen before, even though we never used it :-). I was worried about noise since we were above a liquor store but it wasn’t an issue at all.This was way better than where we stayed last year and we would love to stay here again!

Tyler’s place was great! Very clean, very comfortable, well stocked kitchen, and close walking distance to everything! The pictures truly do not do the place justice. We enjoyed sitting out on the porch. We’ll definitely book again!

Valentines Weekend
We had a great time staying here for Valentines weekend. The apartment is great and within walking distance of all the restaurants and shops. The liquor store below is neat and the noise on a weekend is minimal (can’t even hear it in the bedroom) also sharing a parking lot with a restaurant was great and their breakfast was Even better: will stay here again in the future

A little slice of Helen/Heaven
Cozy little apartment that was perfectly set in the middle of town. Beautiful little place that was clean and had everything you need from towels, bedding, and kitchen utensils! Walking distance to everything! Tyler (the owner) was super helpful and extremely nice. Thanks for allowing us to spend our 31st anniversary at your place. We loved everything Helen and want to come back soon with all of our kids!!
