About this property
Rushing creek waterfall rapids
You`ll think you`ve died and gone to heaven! This river house is located on a wide stretch of the Chattahoochee River near Helen, and is anything but ordinary. Relax on the back deck to the sounds of the rushing creek waterfall rapids just 50 feet below the house. The house sleeps 8 people in beds. Bring your own inner tubes so you can enjoy some river fun and tube down the river back to the house! This unique section of river & creek with waterfall is your own private water amusement park: enjoy swimming in the river, sunning and relaxing on the sandbar, rock shoals, and island in the middle of the river, tubing / kayaking / rafting directly behind the house, playing on the natural rock waterslides in the creek, and exploring the rock shoals of the river. The fishing is good in the river for shoal bass, striped bass, catfish, and bream. The kids will love climbing trees and playing on the property, and won`t even want to watch Netflix or play video games. Your stress will melt away as you catnap in the hammock by the waterfall. Take a nearby hike up to the top of Yonah Mountain then come back and soak your muscles in the hot tub and listening to the waterfall cascades. The back porch deck overlooks the waterfall, so morning coffee on the deck is lovely. Flat Screen HD TV`s have Smart TV Roku built-in so you can log into your Netflix account and enjoy movies and wine by the living room stacked stone fireplace. The grill master can chose between a Weber charcoal grill on the deck or the other charcoal grill down by the creek waterfall, or use the gas grill on the upper deck. The picnic table next to the river makes the perfect place for a Sunday afternoon family lunch. Your kids will never forget the family nights spent around the fire pit with Adirondack chairs telling ghost stories, catching fireflies, and roasting marshmallows. Sit on a boulder by the river, drink a cherry Coke, and you`ll feel like you`re back in Mayberry, USA. Nature lovers should keep an eye out for the wild deer and Canadian geese in the backyard during sunset happy hour with wine. This property is very private and secluded on 5 acres of wooded property, so you`ll have no problem decompressing from the stress of city life. Enjoy nature walks through the woods on the property, or walk down the gravel country road. The interior of the house is decorated with french country furniture and antique motif. Whatever your age or interests, there is something for everyone at this extraordinary river & creek retreat. This is the ultimate river & creek vacation experience!!!

About the host
Hosted by Lindy Crapps
We raised our 3 kids vacationing at this house on the river. We spent many relaxing family vacations on this property, and we hope your family can build your own memories here as well. We live nearby in Dahlonega, GA so we try to come over to the property once per week to check on things and make sure everything is in order and in good repair for the next renter.
Why they chose this property
You can't fully appreciate it until you are actually on the property, as most of our guests tell us "the photos on the website dont do it justice". This is a remarkably beautiful section of the Chattahoochee River. It is much nicer and more relaxing than the river houses that are for rent inside the Helen city limits. When we purchased this property, we actually ended up in a bidding war, but eventually prevailed and we are blessed to be able to own this property.
What makes this property unique
This is the Trifecta of having the river, a creek, and waterfall all on the same property.
