We had an awesome time at Down by the River! The property was clean and with plenty of room for my family of 7 to stretch out. We have 5 kids- 3 girls and 2 boys- the boys stayed in the game room the whole time, the girls in the upstairs loft and my husband and I in the main level master. We all had our own floor, it was perfect, private and so much fun! We plan to come back in the summer again so we can use the tubes to float down the river! We got to do s’mores over the fire pit at night and my husband enjoyed the hot tub!! Can’t wait to come back again!!
If you are looking for a beautiful stream in the backyard of your property, a lot of amenities inside the house and outside. This is a wonderful place for you. I would caution that the driveway coming in is rather steep, but doable.
Clean, easy check in and out, great wi-fi, well stocked.
The house was very nice and well stocked. We brought a lot of extra things we didn't use as they were readily available in the cabin. The kids really enjoyed the river access and the adults enjoyed the pool table. Hot tub was so nice at the end of a busy day. The kids games were in rough shape... lots of missing or scattered pieces, but we had brought some of our own. The only negative comment I have is that the grass really needed mowed. But overall, everything was great!
It was a very peaceful and relaxing place to stay. It was awesome and the layout was prefect for us. We each had a bedroom on a different level.
Beautiful site on water,steps were made for younger adults but we handled.
The property was exactly as it was listed. Quiet neighborhood and some much needed R&R was had by all.
Overall great place to stay.
We had a great time on our one year anniversary! Got to relax and caught a few trout!
Cabin had everything we needed and was clean. Great location. Driveway is steep, put in 4x4 or lower your gears. Great fishing, fun panning for gold, lots of fun for the kids! Thank you!!
I'm at stay at home mom so it was much needed and so relaxing. Wonderful place
This was our second year to stay here. Cabin is perfect and right on the river. Can’t beat it. We will continue to stay here as long as it is available.
Liked that there was plenty of space for everyone and the game room downstairs was great for the kids.
Lots to do at the house! Only downside is that it's about a 18 minute drive to downtown Helen. The owners are very responsive. The pans need to be replaced, so just be aware if you plan on cooking while there.
The property and location are excellent. It’s a short distance from Helen and other attractions. Big yard on the river, the kids enjoyed the fire pit and rec room. The only issue is the driveway, especially during wet, icy conditions, unless you have a 4x4 or strong SUV/truck, your normal everyday car or truck will have issues getting up the driveway. At certain places, the grade is a twisting, steep 45 degree angle. The day we arrived it was rainy and leaves had covered the driveway, making it impossible for the van to get out of the driveway. You will need to have the property manager clear the driveway of any wet debris (leaves, ice, etc) before driving up. I will spare you the details but a tow truck needed to be called. Don’t let this discourage you, just take this into consideration.
Beautiful cabin and highly recommend for anyone wanting a getaway. Everything was as described and on point! Will definitely come back again.
Process was very easy. Checkin/out was easy. Had all the things for the cabin for a good stay.
Everything was great! Driveway is little steep.
The property was great. We had a wonderful time. The only issues were the hair dryer didn’t work and there was a cricket in the wall in the bedroom in the basement. Despite those things we had an amazing time and plan on booking again.
Great property. Look for soap in the purple bag. We didn’t find it until late. You’ll need firwood/fire starter/ accelerant for the fire pit, it wasn’t provided but we left ours! Enjoy. The master bathroom caddy is dangerous and falls and probably needs to be replaced. Taxis/ride shares are very limited/non existent. There were crickets in the closet in the downstairs room locked closet that keep guests up the entire stay. Otherwise, LOVELY PROPERTY. Would go back and would recommend. 5 stars?
We had a wonderful time this weekend at this great cabin. Everything about the cabin was great (except we never found a broom.) The kids enjoyed the game room and we all enjoyed the river.
We enjoyed every minute we spent! The property is gorgeous and the daily deer sightings on the property and in the neighborhood were just a bonus. We will definitely be back!!
The cabin was beautiful and lots of space. The 3 1/2 bathrooms was a plus for 6 of us plus plenty of sleeping areas. We had an issue with the oven and a new one was brought out and installed promptly!! The communication was great! The river was beautiful although the water level was too high for us to feel comfortable getting in it was nice to sit and have coffee by the river . The only thing I would suggest is chairs for by the fire pit. We had to drag the chairs from the table on the deck over. The game room was nicely equipped. We had to get used to the extremely steep driveway but managed it ok. We had an amazing stay and have talked about booking this cabin again in the future.
