Helen Riverside Cabin-Chattahoochee River-Walk to Town
Unlike most cabins in the area, this cabin is right in Alpine Helen. Located on the Chattahoochee River, it's just a short walk into downtown Alpine Helen and the Oktoberfest Festhalle. Park your car and walk to town. For about the same price as a motel suite, you get 2 big bedrooms, living/dining rooms, full kitchen, washer & dryer and two jetted bathtubs. Best of all, you get the privacy and quite a motel room could never offer. Each bedroom has one queen sized bed. The fully equipped kitchen has solid surface countertops & ceramic tile floors, microwave, and dishwasher. There is a gas grill on the riverside deck. Make Helen Riverside Cabin your luxury 'base camp' for exploring all of Northeast Georgia. Right next door we also have the four bedroom Helen Riverside Retreat, VRBO property #2447604 https://www.vrbo.com/2447604?noDates=true. If you have a really big family group, rent both and be side by side!
What's in the cabin.: All cooking utensils and linens are provided. There are jetted bath tubs in each bath with a two person jetted tub in the downstairs bath. The floors in the baths are also ceramic tile. Towels and linens are provided. There is a flat screen smart TV in the living room and flat smart TVs in the bedrooms. Free WiFi service is included. The owners live in Helen, so if there are any problems, we'll be there to make it right.
The covered riverside deck looks over the Chattahoochee River. The street side view looks over horse pastures and toward historic Hamby Mountain. Located within walking distance to restaurants, shops and activities in Helen, Helen's Riverside Cabin is also just minutes from Unicoi State Park, Anna Ruby Falls, the Old Sautee Store, Innsbruck Golf Course, Appalachian Trail, Lake Burton, Lake Chatuge, and much more. Let this be your luxury 'base camp' for exploring all of Northeast Georgia. The Chattahoochee River flows under just 50' from our cabin!

We had a great time again staying in this cabin. Everything was very clean and the location is perfect! You can walk to everything!! We will definitely stay here again!
Cabin was very clean and convenient to town. The property had everything we needed for a great stay. We had excellent communication with the host throughout the whole process. We enjoyed our stay very much and would book this property again.
Had another fantastic stay at the cabin. Unfortunately had to cut out a day early due to the forecasted ice storm. David was fantastic reaching out to us while there and providing local knowledge on the potential impacts. Will definitely keep returning to this peaceful cabin.
Great place to stay and walk into town. Just sitting on balcony and listening to river was relaxing. Cabin had all the amenities you need. Just need to bring groceries to cook and eat. Definitely would stay here again.
Everything from check in to check out was wonderful. Great location, the river was literally right there, so close to groceries, hosts were great and communicative, will keep coming back!
This cabin was amazing and enough out of the way of all the noise down town during the busy weekend and offered a great home away from home. Had all the necessities and great location for a little fishing just steps away from the door steps. Hope to rent again for our next vacation.
We had a wonderful stay at the riverside cabin in the woods. Downtown Helen was a short walk away. The cabin had everything we needed to make it a memorable family vacation. Thank you!
Loved location…wooded, private, great view of stream, truly a short walk to downtown.Beautiful home…fabulous balcony, warm log cabin feel, super super clean.Wished we could stay longer!
My wife and absolutely loved this Cabin for many reasons and plan on staying there again. From a very easy booking process, to good communication with the renters, to location, location, location. Everything is just as it says. You can’t go wrong renting this place.
Everything was wonderful and the hosts were easy to communicate with when setting up our stay. The house has the best location in town - close to everything but private, on the river, great deck and outdoor space, great kitchen, spacious bedrooms and bathrooms. We would definitely stay here again!
