Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time at River Retreat. Location was close to downtown. It is walkable, but you are on the far end of town. The river was peaceful in the evening. During the day,there is a water park across the river, but we did not hear alot of noise from there. On Sunday,there was a group of people enjoying their day at the picnic site and sand bar right across from us,but they were respectful of noise. Overall, the house is nice. There are a few updates that could be done. Kitchen appliances, dinnerware and utensils. It rained upon our arrival, so the parking under the house was great. Overall, a good stay!

This cabin was perfect for me and my wife and friends we hadn't seen for over 30 years until we reconnected earlier this year. The cottage gave us a place to relax and unwind when we weren't on the go in Helen, Dohlonega or up on top of the Blue Ridge riding the scenic railroad. Great long weekend getaway. Ga Mountain rentals checked on us twice to make sure all was good and we didn't need anything. We will be back soon!!!!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Nice place, good location. Worked for our vacation nicely since it was very close to the balloon race. It was mostly clean, though there were a few things missed. Trash left in one of the cans and a bar soap ring left on the shelf in the shower. Nice view of the river, and nice covered area to park.
