Beautiful property in a secluded quiet location that was very close to Helen and Anna Ruby falls. My children had a blast playing in the creek behind the cabin and panning for gold. Hopefully we'll be back for another visit in the future!

Outstanding vacation! Great location near Helen and Anna Ruby Falls. The cabin was extremely clean and well stocked with kitchen appliances and little extras. All the comforts of home, in a newly-remodeled cabin, surrounded by nature. Cabin Rentals of Helen were so helpful with all their communications before, during and after our trip. We will definitely book with them again.

Nice and secluded. Yet, only 5 minutes from Helen. The trail and the waterfalls were great. Sitting on the back patio you can hear them. Very soothing. Very nice jacuzzi. There are even jets in the soaker tub in the bathroom. We all really enjoyed it.

This cabin is very well taken care of. It looks like new. The property is private and convenient to Yonah Preserve, the town of Helen, and Unicoi State Park. We enjoyed being comfortable in the cabin, sitting around the campfire, and soaking in the hot tub. We are definitely coming back!
