    The building elevator is very slow but the Condo was clean. spacious, and comfortable. Especially liked having two king beds for the two couples. Enjoyed sitting on the screened in porch and watcking all the tubbers going down the river.

    Had a wonderful stay with family here. It had some minor issues (doors sticking or not closing), but was overall a fantastic condo for a small group or family to be right on the river and near so much of the activities in town. Highly recommend!!

    The kitchen was stocked very well. I always bring a few things of my own because I'm picky but with your kitchen items I didn't even need to. You're close enough to town that we walked a lot of times. We were the only ones there but I appreciated all your signs about being courteous about noise 10pm and 8am. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your place. Thanks

    Beautiful condo in a perfect location to shops in Helen. The condo is very roomy to include king beds in each bedroom. The kitchen and baths were stocked with everything you need. Parking is covered, which is nice. Our favorite part is the back screened-in patio overlooking the river. Already looking forward to booking at this location next year. Thank you to the homeowners for letting us use their perfect space!

    This is our second stay at this location. Fall of 2024 and December 2025. We will definitely be back just wish animals were allowed. Everything in the condominium was great and great communication with hosts. Only problem was next door neighbors were extremely loud. They came home around 2 am on New Years after partying and we heard everything. That truly was the worst of the whole trip and nothing that we could get away from.

    The area is beautiful and the weather was perfect. Betty’s and The Hofbrau had the best food. The rental house had everything we needed and was clean. The only discrepancy was the listing said there was a 1/2 bath but there wasn’t. And it was in a great, walkable area.
