We loved the cabin its so cozy & perfectly on the river. Parking was an issue! Only room for 1 vehicle & its right on the road, tight to the house. We had to pull out of the space for anyone to get in or out of the passenger side in our truck. Regardless we would recommend this cabin as long as you only have 1 vehicle.

We LOVED the property! Literally RIGHT on the water! Beautiful and quiet spot. Our cabin was very clean with plenty of towels, extra pillows and everything one would need to cook full meals in their large kitchen.
A very short ride into Helen center (5-10 minutes) which made it easy when we were tired and needed a break from walking around town. We 100% recommend and can't wait to come back!
