Everything was as it should have been! Would definitely stay here again!
4.5
The stay was great. Parked the car once we got there and never moved it. Walking distance to everything. The unit was right on the river. Down the street from both tubing companies. We even stopped at the unit while floating down the river, for drinks and a pit stop. Definitely for any couples for a nice stay. Would stay there again.
4.5
It was just what we were looking for. Nice and quiet. The creek and close enough to town to walk.
4.5
Couldn't picked a better property, enjoyed watching tubing from our balcony, within walking distace yet far enough away from main street. Definitely recommend to anyone.
4.5
This was our first trip to Helen and the condo was in the perfect location. It's an easy walk to shopping, restaraunts, or to either of the tubing company's (pro tip walk to the bus pick up for tubing and save parking money). The upstairs condo has a great deck that overlooks the river and shoreline to set near or get in the river. Everything was clean and well kept. We liked that we were close enough to walk to everything yet not right in the middle of it all. Helen is a tourist destination and there was a fun little parade while we were there and yet the condo was quiet in the evening and at night.
4.5
Great unit. Right on the river, great view. Walk to downtown spots. Clean, neatly decorated. Only one negative. The owners need to step up and purchase a new mattress.
4.5
Easy walking distance to restaurants and town. Liked the deck overlooking water. Wasn’t crazy about the bed. Was perfect for my trip
4.5
Great Location. Very Clean!

Had a wonderful stay. Onwer was quickly responsive and helpful. Loved being able to see the river. Would definitely rebook with them
4.5
Great location. Nice clean condo over looking the river. Only downfalls were spotty internet for streaming and the mattress needs updating, as it’s not very comfortable.
4.5
Very dark and badly out of date . Needs complete updating and brightness. Town is in need of updating too. Awful restaurants and shops
4.5
Dated needs work. Bathroom shower had no pressure and needs a larger hot water heater. Over all it was a nice stay.
4.5
Pros: Nice location. Riverview was wonderful. You can walk to everything in Helen.
Cons: A little musty smell. Only one hand towel in bathroom for 2 people. Cleanliness was iffy. Mattress was like a trampoline.
4.5
The best part of this stay was the location! We loved being right by the stream. So pleasant. Loved having a washer/dryer too.
4.5
Great peaceful location. Easy to get everywhere.
4.5
Perfect location. Within walking distance to almost everything. Cute and cozy cabin was just right. Evenings on the patio with a glass of wine listening to the river’s rushing waters was so relaxing. Definitely recommend!
4.5
Place was very clean although dated. Porch furnishings could be more comfortable as the view on the river was wonderful. The exterior needs a lot of TLC. Cob webs cleaned up and a coat of paint would be recommended. Office was very responsive when we had a lock problem.
4.5
We had a wonderful time this past weekend. We stayed right on the river. The condo was clean and close to everything . I would definitely stay here again
4.5

Beautiful property right on the river! Close enough to walk to town, restaurants, tubing and even a Dollar General almost across the street. Nice back deck overlooking the river! We really enjoyed our experience and will definitely stay again!
4.5
Condo is a good choice for a couples getaway. Everything you need in the condo except the food (and personals)! Location puts you within walking distance of downtown area so no need to drive.Parking in front of the unit is convenient. Under the building is offered, but has low clearance. Balcony over the river is nice. Would definitely stay here again.
4.5
It took me awhile before I can find the place even after asking several people around( I have driven passed it too many times because some workers kinda block the view / landmark to reveal so ) , BUT when I finally walked in the condo , it’s feels so much serene as it is homey and the sound of the river out back was so calming and relaxing as if it’s serenading me to sleep . The natures view by the porch is absolutely breathtaking and the fresh air is sooo rejuvenating! Ask me if I will come back ???? How can you NOT … you would love the wonderful time of total serenity and the joy of being in complete haven See you all soon

The property was near the city and easily accessible. It was clean and looked just like the picture. We were very pleased and comfortable in our stay. The weather didn't allow us to sit outside and enjoy the river but that didn't spoil our stay. We will be returning.
4.5
We had such a great time . Beautiful scenery by the river. Rooms were very clean . We will definitely be back!

First time in Helen, GA. Nice 1 bedroom on the river, conveniently located. Property has been updated, really nice.
4.5
We loved our experience here. So convenient and right by the creek. Would love to stay here again!
4.5
The condo that we stayed in was perfect. It had a beautiful view of the water. There was also a fireplace, which was wonderful in the evenings! The only issue that I had was, you could only park out front. In the description it says there was parking under underneath, but that was not able to be done as there was lots of debris mud and Nails down there. It kind a looks like it was flooded or something I don’t know but other than that it was a great experience!

4 Hours after arrival water pipes frozen. Had no water condo was nice. Lost food prepared for weekend along with the inconvenience of moving to a hotel.

Great experience!

A nice little one bedroom condo with a deck overlooking the Chattahoochee River. Convenient to everything in downtown Helen by foot and an easy drive to many area attractions. We would definitely stay here again. This wasn't our first stay with Blue Creek Cabins and we have always been happy with their accommodations and service!

Booked for Anniversary getaway. Walking in we found the whole place super clean. We are very picky about clenaliness & this lived up to our standards. The view over the balcony was of the river with the soft river sounds. Since it is on the back side overlooking the river we did not experience the noise from the very busy Oktoberfest weekend. The couch and love seat in the living area were super comfy with throw pillows to add to the comfort. The bedroom area was good size with walk in closet, bed very comfortable. We slept really well which is a big plus when you are not in your own bed. Kitchen was fully stocked with dishes, soap, towel, wash cloth, paper towels. Bathroom was very clean and had a strip over the toilet seat that had to be pulled off that proved the toilet had been cleaned. Shower had rain shower head as well as handheld shower head that you could toggle back and forth.
The fireplace was really nice, we used it 2 nights because to us Floridians the nights were really cold. The fire created a nice romantic atmosphere.
The only things we found that we would recommend is updating the kitchen removing the outdated wallpaper and just paint it, the stove was brand new, the hood over the stove very old. Maybe put in a new hood.
Then the toilet sits extremely low, so recommend replacing with higher seated toilet.
We would definitely book in future. Loved the place. Had a great vacation, thank you Blue Creek!!!!!!!

It was clean, quiet and peaceful! really enjoyed the balcony infant of the river

We booked for a little get away for me and my husbands honeymoon trip. I loved that it was right on the river, so we could listen to it flow and watch tubers. My husband LOVED the bed (surprisingly) the room was pitch black and we slept until 8:30-9( we are usual up at 5-6) We thought parking was going to be an issue but it wasn't. Was walking distance from down town and tubing. We walked everywhere.

As advertised
The property was just like the pictures. There was great responses with all questions. Everything was clean and well stocked. Will definitely stay again!

4th of July holiday!
The location of this condo is excellent for a fun weekend in and around Helen, GA. Easy walking distance to all shops and restaurants, and the unit faces a creek fork of the Chatahoochee River. The rafters float right by below the patio deck and walking out into the water takes just a few steps.
The only downside I’d not is that the mattress in the unit is very old, and dips in in middle (and on the sides as well). A new mattress would be a good owner investment!
Also coffee supply for the length of guest stay is also a good idea.
We had a days worth of coffee but luckily had packed some extra.
All in all, very nice stay because location is awesome.
