Really enjoyed this property. The house is a bit dated in some regards (mainly electrical), but nothing significant. The location is great for a stay in Helen and that made for easy access to the places we wanted to go. Good communication from the host and no real issues at all. Will definitely look here first if we are planning to be back in the area.

Labor day trip to Helen

The property was the perfect location for our weekend getaway. Unbelievable to have such a secluded and private location and basically be right in town! Short walk to everything and great outdoor spaces at the house! Would definitely stay again.

This property was perfect for our family fall get away. Everyone had plenty of room and enjoyed all of the outdoor space. We had a fire one night and had fun with the outdoor games. We appreciated the different seating areas outside. The property is close to Helen, and we enjoyed the ease of walking and not driving to town.

Great location!

House was clean and as advertised. Perfect location for privacy but right in the middle of downtown Helen activities. Small park and hiking trail both right outside the door.

A great location. House was very clean Far enough away to be out of the hustle bustle but close enough to be able to walk to town. House was set up nicely. We enjoyed sitting on the back patio watching the leaves fall. Would stay here again

Loved the location !

We loved the location of the property surrounding with trees and nature. Loved the short walk to downtown area and to hiking trail that is right outside of the house. One little improvement needed is to fix master bathroom shower drain, water drains very slowly and you end up standing in a pool of water even after quick shower. But we would definitely come again.

This house is in the perfect location for your stay in Helen. Main Street is easily accessible by foot saving you parking fees. It also is at the trailhead for the Unicoi/Helen trail for the hikers. The house was clean and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked if you plan on cooking during your stay. There is both a traditional drip coffee maker and a Keurig. The bathrooms were spacious and towels were abundant and thick and fluffy. Outside, there are comfortable chairs, and an outdoor television on the covered patio, a screened in area with a picnic area, and a firepit with Adirondack chairs. Firewood is also provided. We didn't take advantage of it this trip, but maybe next time.Overall, we were very pleased with our stay and will look to stay here next time we visit.

Great cabin !

Great clean cabin! Close to downtown and can walk to downtown with no problem! Everything about the cabin was great from the comfortable beds to the living room and kitchen, plus the outside was nice with all the seating and fire pit! The only knock to us was Helen itself, it has changed over the years not quite as nice and clean as it use to be! But if you going to Helen this cabin should be one of the first to pick from with how nice the cabin is and how close it is to downtown but out of the noise up on the hill out but itself!

Weekend Getaway

We enjoyed the location. A short walk down the hill to the restaurants and activities along the main road in Helen. No need to pay the daily parking fee that the town charges. The home was also next to a hiking trail that we took for a portion of the day to a park. The home is adequate with comfortable beds, washer and dryer, but no extras. Bring coffee pods and ground coffee for the keurig and coffee maker and any condiments you want.

Amazing house within walking distance of downtown

The house and property were beautiful with games and a fire pit outside. You could see the lights from downtown at night and hear some of the music, but very peaceful. The property owner was very responsive and let us park and check in early so we could start exploring Helen. There’s a children’s park at the bottom of the hill and everything downtown is within walking distance. There’s also a trail through the woods to the park if you want to avoid walking down the road.

Walkable to Downtown Helen

Great location. Easy walk to Main St, cutting through Unicoi Park with all the Christmas lights on, made it seem even shorter. The house was exactly as described and the host even left firewood out for the fire pit. Only thing keeping it from getting 5 stars are some minor annoyances, such as the master bathroom shower door won’t stay closed resulting in having to constantly wipe up water from the floor, the towels were clean but probably time to replace them altogether, and the mattress pad in the master bedroom had a lot of stains on it (we didn’t notice until after we stripped the sheets when we left). Again, very please with the home and would stay here again.

Disliked: Communication
Communication was horrible. Excuses were made. That doesn't change the fact that questions were ignored for weeks. The oven is sketchy we discovered very late the evening of my birthday it was heating back up hubby was looking around trying to figure out breakers. We waited until the morning to call but the voicemail was full. He made excuses we sent messages at late or early times that doesn't explain a full voicemail or that we didn't get responses for weeks a key question was if there was a grill. No response so we packed a griddle. They "fixed the oven" it would go off but I question if fixed properly because the warning light kept going on. 3 of 4 people staying not me complained about the pillows they found them unusable which no one told me until after checkout.Old wiring hard to find a 3 prong outlet. Very steep walk we had elderly people with us. Overall a good place lots of firewood and space but was really a hassle being up late trying to figure it out. My husband who dealt with it was dealing with back issues and being sick enough he had been at ER prior to this and dealing with a loss of sleep to get a reaction it was early when you called we didn't call at midnight when dealing with this a bit of a bummer on my bday. Lot of potential if you don't need an oven or 3 prong outlets. what we dealt with was ridiculous and not fun when hubby had been very sick and was struggling with back issues. Also claim 10 am checkout yet listing says 11.

We enjoyed our stay here! It was very clean and cozy. The mattress themselves are comfortable, however the bed frames in both bedrooms were extremely loud. Every move you made it felt like the bed was going to fall apart. Other than the loud bed frames, our stay was pretty wonderful here! Would love to stay again!

The home was very easy to locate and check in was very smooth. It was a very cozy stay, the house was clean and tidy. The trail and downtown was within walking distance, we enjoyed there being outdoor activities to do within the home as well. Highly recommend booking here, will most definitely stay here again in the future.
