Perfect location! We didn’t have to pay to park, we were able to walk everywhere. The porch was very relaxing and the house was spacious.

So glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. We’re so glad you chose Georgia Mountain Rentals. We hope to welcome you back again real soon.
This property is great! It's the perfect location to everything! We were able to walk to everything within 8 minutes or less. We even walked from the Fun Factory, and it was less than 20 minutes. Its such a beautiful town!
Perfect condo for 2 couples. Listen to the river while sitting on the screened porch. Easy walk to town and all the restaurants. Lots of hiking and wineries close by. Would definitely stay again
This was a beautiful property, in a great location. River front, and then walkable to everything in Helen. The property it self was cozy but roomy for 2 adults & 4 children/teens. We really enjoyed our stay, property management was very responsive and courteous. We would definitely stay here again.
