Comfortable stay! Easy walk to shops and restaurants. I love that there is a king size bed in each bedroom and a bathroom in each bedroom. There's also a half-bath down stairs near the kitchen. Huge comfortable couch and good size kitchen. Grocery store within 1 block. Fast response from property manager. The downs are minimal . . . entry on 2nd floor (not noted in listing), TV volume didn't work, not enough towels and blankets and the dryer took 5 cycles to dry. Overall, would definately recommend.

Great Helen Location
The condo was very clean and modern. Loved the gas fireplace in the cool weather. Also enjoyed the hot tub once we could figure it out; we’re just not hot tub savvy. Turns out the sofa bed was broken but that didn’t spoil our trip. We had a great time.

Visit to Helen Ga.
Our first time in Helen… such a great town. Our vrbo was in the best location. We never had to use our car. Our place was great. It was very clean and had everything you need for a little getaway. Our host was really nice and was available if we needed anything.Highly recommend.

Great location and awesome host!
Can’t beat the location as it was steps away from the action in town! Checkin process was super simple and we were even able to get in a little early, which was great. Host was extremely responsive and quickly provided additional sheets/blankets when requested. All that said… the place needs a makeover. At the very least, some new kitchen utensils and pots and pans would be nice. Overall though, we really enjoyed the stay and especially the hot tub! Would come back.

Cozy little gem
This place is absolutely awesome and I highly recommended booking for your Helen stay. The location is perfect. We were within comfortable walking distance to Betty’s, the liquor store, and downtown as well. This is not our first trip to Helen and we loved the condo so much we spent most of our time there. It was spotless and smelled great as soon as we opened the door. The only issue we had was the check info on Vrbo was incorrect but we got that fixed quickly with the host. We enjoyed snuggling on the couch in front of the fireplace. Bring a throw blanket to make it even more cozy. Great kitchen with everything we needed to prepare meals. We will definitely be back.

Great apartment, great location
We had a nice Christmas vacation in Helen. The apartment is as shown in pictures and was very clean. A wonderful surprise was the Christmas tree in the living room. It truly added to the stay!The beds were good, bathroom with each bedroom so great place for two couples. You see the lights of the town from the porch which was great for us. Hot tub was really nice as was grill on back porch. Helen is such a cute little town for a great Xmas break. We would definitely stay at this apartment again.

Look No Further!
The location was in downtown Helen, and walking distance to everything. The set up was perfect, beds were comfortable, both king size. The TV was even user friendly. Kitchen had everything we need. My husband loved the hot tub. It was nice for each couple to have their own private bathroom, and when downstairs, there is a half bathroom. James is an amazing host, and quick to accommodate ! I will come back and I highly recommend this place to everyone.
