Cozy and comfortable. Very short drive from town (Helen GA). Quite neighborhood with friendly neighbors. We truly enjoyed our stay. Georgia Mountain Rentals has great customer service. Checked on us during our stay. Highly recommended and will book with them again on our next trip back.

Great to stay next door to my 82 year old mom. Made for enjoyable visit. Having separate space to cook, shower and sleep; not to mention sneak away for FUN and SIGHT seeing around town, neighboring towns too.

This cottage is adorable! It was clean, comfortable, perfect location for tubing and just a short 1 minute drive to town. If we travel to Helen in the future we will definitely stay here again!

Great town to visit!!

We really enjoyed our stay! It was very convenient to downtown and plenty of room! The only thing there was no linen for the pull out bed and none for the extra pillows, so we had to go purchase some! Other than that it was great!

The house was very nice, clean, just what we needed. We didn't do any cooking as we was there to try all of the German restaurants in Helen. Met a neighbor that was very friendly in which we enjoyed their conversation.

We have stayed here the same weekend two years in a row now and plan to do the same next year. The rate is good, the place is very nice, the surrounding neighborhood is quiet. Grab some groceries and the cottage have everything you could need. We love staying here!

The rental was extremely clean and well-decorated; there was lots of room. Perhaps upgrading the bed sizes from a Queen and twins to a king and a queen. Living room could have used a comfortable chair.

We LOVED the property! It was perfect for our party. It is close to town, but not walkable. The only complaint would be the hot water for showers ran out quickly.

Beautiful home. Very clean and newly refinished. Quiet neighborhood in a great location close to Helen.
4.8
The house was very cute but the layout was strange for 2 couples. The second bathroom was not close to the second bedroom. We thought we would be able to walk into Helen but the 1 mile to Helen did not have sidewalks and it was along Highway 17 which is a very busy road. Needless to say we had to drive into town during Octoberfest which we wanted to avoid. Advice - Make sure that you take shampoo/conditioner type toiletries with you. Also, very little spices in the kitchen for cooking. Thank good ness we had planned on eating out. Overall, we would stay here again but not during a busy season in Helen.
4.8
The place was nice but we are both handicapped and the bed was to high to get into. we could not figure out how to work the TV at all. There was no ice maker to be had. My wife had to use the magazine box to get in and out of the bed. Over all we liked the cottage. It was nice to sit on the porch and read.
4.8
Great experience!

The cottage was easy to find, impeccably clean, and in a very quiet neighborhood that was a short drive into the heart of Helen. It is super close to Unicoi State Park and Anna Ruby Falls. The house would be nice for a couple or small family.

This was the cleanest vacation rental I have ever stayed in - and I've stayed in dozens (and own one). Beyond the crazy level of clean, the home and its features were over the top - everything we needed was there, nice quality, and appropriate. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful, while simultaneously very convenient to Helen. Should we choose to visit Helen again, our first call will be to book this property again. Bottom line: this place was so nice and clean that I found myself looking for something wrong. After 3 days I found an obscure scratch on a door.

Reviewer Comments:
We came for a two night stay and left our outdoor gear on the front porch. While we were out two individuals came and took our paddle boards, duffles, a white comforter, and later we found out they also took our gun in its silver case. The neighbors described an old woman and heavy set man taking our things and said they also enterd the rental property. We contacted Ga Mtn Rentals to share the crime and the female on the phone walked to a nearby place at their office can confirmed that she saw our paddle boards and gave us the address to come pick them up with no explanation as to why things had been removed. When we realized the gun case and bun were missing we called back. They are not taking this seriously and we are pursuing for a return or the weapon or compensation. Cleanliness and location mean nothing if your belongings are not secure and management cannot be accountable for their criminal staff.

The house is just lovely. It is obviously recently updated. Decor is on trend and up to date in every room. Very cozy little cottage just outside downtown Helen on a quiet little street. Very picturesque. The house was very clean and everything was in excellent condition. I would highly recommend this property.
