The host was welcoming and kind. The house was warm and welcoming and the amenities were awesome. My grands loved being able to sleep in the same room where we heard them giggling long after bedtime! They loved the beautiful yard where they found tons of golf balls! We had a lovely time and plan to visit again!

Thank you so much for this beautiful message 🤍 It truly means a lot to hear that you and your family had such a special time. I love that the kids were giggling and making memories together—that’s exactly what the space is meant for 🥹 And I’m so glad they enjoyed the yard (the golf balls are always a fun little surprise!). You were such wonderful guests, and I would absolutely love to host you again anytime.
From the owner: "We look forward to a future booking with us. We try to have everything you need for your stay with us. Great family to work with. Thank you!"
Our stay was amazing. I cannot say enough good things about this home and the host. They made it special for our trip and went the extra mile to make us feel welcome in a new town. The communication was great and the check-in process was easy. The home was beautiful and everything was comfortable and clean. Highly recommend this home and this host!

This has to be the best VRBO I have stayed in by far. The host was extremely detailed, attentive, and went out of their way to make our birthday celebration memorable. The house was located in a beautiful secluded golf community and was only minutes away from the downtown area. The house was very well stocked and perfect for for all of our needs. The icing on the cake was the deer that visited the backyard in the afternoons. We will definitely stay here again and highly recommend this house and host.

Thank you so much for sharing such a beautiful review. Hosting you was truly a joy, and I’m so happy we could be part of making your birthday celebration special. Knowing that you enjoyed the home, the community, and even the deer in the backyard means the world to us. We put our heart into creating a memorable experience for our guests, and your kind words remind us why we love doing this. We would be absolutely honored to welcome you back anytime.
I strongly recommend this house for anyone looking for a great place to relax with your family. The house is perfect and the location to all attractions is perfect. It’s comfortably quite and away from the hustle of town but just minutes away.
This property is well maintained, the house manager was more than welcoming and made sure that anything we needed was there. We did cook and grill during our stay and the house is well stocked with any needed amenities. The location is perfect to get in and out of Helen and surrounding parks, trails, & attractions. 100% would rent this property again if going to Helen. We were lucky to be able to see some of the wildlife while staying there, which was such a treat. Momma bear with cubs and a woodchuck. Our bed (king) was really comfortable and our friends said the same for the rest of the beds.Pushing a couple non-people photos from our stay a shutterbug in our group took.

From the owner: "Thank you for your compliments, our goal is for our guests to be as comfortable as possible so they can enjoy a stress free get away. Looking forward to your visit again."
We had an unforgettable stay at this beautiful mountain retreat! The home was spacious and perfect for quality family time. The hot tub was a favorite for everyone, and the game rooms kept both kids and adults entertained—especially the pool table! Evenings were magical as we caught lightning bugs and made s’mores by the fire pit. We loved watching nature all around us and were lucky enough to spot deer and even a family of bears from a safe distance. Our dog had the time of his life too! Highly recommend this peaceful, fun-filled getaway.
Came into town to celebrate a family birthday. House was great! Had everything we needed and accomadated everyone. Close to downtown Helen. Melissa was great and available when needed. Would recommend to others and would love to visit again.

This peaceful, clean, superbly stocked house was not only welcoming and accommodating but was exactly what our family needed as we gathered together to celebrate our daughter's graduation from TMU (go bears). We had an AC issue that was addressed in a timely manner. The hot tub was clean and well sized. The grill was a nice touch and the kids loved the pool table. Even our dog had a great vacation. We would love to stay again.

We had a great time - this home was perfect! We do a family vacation each summer trying to go different places and this was the best experience by far. Everyone wants to go back! Helen is fun and a really cute town. Weekends even in early June was busy!
