Great getaway
Absolutely loved the location of this home. However, we had no cell service and WiFi went out for half of our stay. Was ok since we were trying to unplug. Dining table is upstairs which was a little odd and master bedroom had no privacy as it is located in the open loft upstairs. Again no problem for us since it was a sisters trip. The river was amazing and location was perfect. Communication was exceptional.

Three boys and a River
Our boys loved the property! Close proximity to zip lines, rock climbing, waterfalls, Helen town center, not to mention water front private river access for splashing, rock skipping, floating, and Cairn building. House is well planned overall and kitchen and bathroom facilities were up to date. I would suggest owner invest in new laundry facilities, not efficient or quiet. The previous reviews mentioning a ‘lack of general cleanliness’ and ‘chipped dishes’ are consistent with my findings. The owner should replace the dishes…they have been loved and show significant signs of stress; ceramic dishes will crack after continued washing in dishwashers. Housekeeping needs to address cobwebs, greasy fingerprints on cabinets, and dirty hardwood floors…all give the property an icky feeling. As a hardwood floor homeowner myself, I recognize after a long weekend of river tubing and high foot traffic the floors will need serious attention. Bathroom linens were clean and abundant, but white…why white? It’s a riverfront cabin with very little white in the decor. My biggest complaint to go on record is the kitchen dish towel…one is provided. Bring your own from home if you plan to dry anything. High priced for location…needs better care, more comfy outdoor seating options on both decks, and offer a few more “everyday luxuries”…like two dish towels. 😊

Amazing and Relaxing
The property was clean and comfortable, but the best part is the river!! We stayed outside more than inside. Convenient to Helen, yet serene and quiet. Will stay here again!!!

This was the best location, no one needed a pool table, games, tv or hot tub we stayed playing in the river... this location was everything.
