Welcome to The Chattahoochee River House 2, situated on the banks of the Chattahoochee River.

It is perfectly located for convenient access to everything Downtown Helen offers with the added bonus of being nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains! You may want to take a refreshing dip in the river; go next door to the Helen Festhalle for bingo and dancing; cross the street for miniature golf; head up to Main St. for a horse drawn carriage ride and shopping; take a hike on one of the many trails close by; or take a drive through the beautiful North Georgia Mountains.

This Luxurious Condo was recently updated with New Décor and Furnishings throughout that highlight the River~Mountain Motif. The Chattahoochee River House 2 is the upstairs condo and features Amazing River views throughout from the many Windows and Balconies! The Welcoming Screened Porch opens into the large main living area that includes a well-equipped Kitchen with Granite Counters, Stainless Steel appliances and more, plus plenty of seating around the table in case you decide to eat in instead of sampling the many delicious restaurants around town! There are both a standard drip coffee maker and a Keurig for your convenience. The comfortable Living Room with Gas fireplace has been updated with 2 New Sofas, New Rug, Custom made Tables from a local craftsman and is the perfect setting to Enjoy a Movie on the TV with Roku streaming.

Located very close to everything but still quite.

We enjoyed walking to the hustle and bustle of Helen but we also enjoyed the quieter moments back at the condo listening to the river. We would stay here again

Fun in Helen GA

Rental is in great location. Many of the shops/restaurants we wanted to visit were an easy walk for us. The screen porch was a wonderful place to unwind at end of day.

Great property!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We completely loved our experience here. We literally didn’t get in the car for our whole stay. We walked to downtown, restaurants, and the two playgrounds near by. We’d definitely stay again. The house itself was also great, super clean, and everything worked well in it.

My family of 4 had a wonderful stay. The property was as described. We loved the screened in porch. Everything we wanted to see/do was in walking distance. We hope to come back with a larger group and rent the downstairs too.

Wonderful location

Communication and friendliness of property manager is amazing. The location is wonderful! The house was clean and fully stocked with everything you could need. Such a relaxing stay for a much needed reset. Will definitely be staying here again. It is all around a 10 out of 10! Can’t recommend highly enough.

Great location and very comfortable

We stay in Helen quite often as our son goes to college in Cleveland and our friends live nearby. This house was just the right amount of space to relax and enjoy some down time. Great porch with a screen to keeps the bugs out and we were able to grill. The beds were comfortable and it was a juice space to just hang out. We will definitely be back to stay again

Have stayed before

Loved this unit in the past. This unit is upstairs and we didn’t have any one in the downstairs unit last visit this time we did and any food they cooked the smell came into our place. We had an issue with our shower head falling off and they came and fixed it then our refrigerator started leaking all over the floor we used our bath towels to prevent it from getting the rug wet again and rung them out to keep the water at bay. We called a couple of times and when we left there still were towels around the fridge it never got fixed. The floor around the fridge is damaged so I am thinking this might be an on going problem. If I owned a home and used a management company for my maintenance I would be upset at the condition of my floor. We love Helen and frequent it. We were excited to go back to this place after trying others but might think twice about this place next time.

Perfect location and property

This rental was fantastic. It was super clean and just as advertised. It was just our family of four but it was very spacious with lots of room to spread out. The screened porch and grill were such a nice addition. Great view of the river and within walking distance to everything we wanted to do. The rental company was very responsive when we called with questions and even called us to check in to see if we needed anything. The kitchen is big with lots of counter space but only equipped with very basic supplies/utensils. If you’re staying for several days Or like to cook in, I’d suggest bringing your own spices (there was only salt and pepper) and any other kitchen staples you can’t live without. We were only there two nights so this was no big deal. Thanks so much for such a great stay.
