Great cabin with a great location. Beautiful setting on the river with a nice deck to sit. Very roomy and very clean. We used the fire pit which was nice. Centrally located to Helen and short drives to other nearby towns. Right down the road from the tubing centers as well.

Rate stay - 5-star - Location. Location. LOCATION. 1st- the rental company? Fantastic! I had a few snags with dates (my end) and they were able to accommodate me without skipping a beat. 2nd- right on the CREEK!!! No tubers, so no people watching, just me and the kids in the creek with my lovely wife cheering us on. 3rd- silent as a graveyard (except for the sounds of nature) 4th- Animals! Lots of crows, a deer (we only saw her butt as she had just crossed the creek) and a big boy of a groundhog! I think he lives under the deck. A washer/dryer would have been super convenient, but we will definitely stay again!!! 10-10 would recommend. P. S. Its a three-minute drive to Cool River Tubing and if you wanna go to Cleavland and want to skip the heavy weekend traffic, you have easy access to the county roads.

Called to add my adult son to the party 2 weeks out. Very smooth. Rentals made sure linens were provided for him. I was not excited about having to sign away all rights on the rental agreement, but we are pretty respectful of properties, and all worked out well.

The cabin was tidy, well appointed except for a broom and pot holders. Fixthe window and clean them for even more river enjoyment. The town of Helen is great if you love beach boardwalks and Gatlinburg.

Working with the team was super easy. I received text messages welcoming me, during the stay to ensure everything was going ok, and reminder text messages before my departure. When I reached out to them, their response was prompt and helpful. Booking through this company was a lot easier than booking or staying at a VRBO or such.

This property was wonderful! Our party consisted of 4 adults and 2 toddlers. The setup was perfect for our whole family. The location was so close to downtown Helen- just a few minutes drive. The kids loved exploring the property along the creek and collecting stones. Make sure to leave the master bedroom door open a crack. The sound of the rushing creek will lull you to sleep. It was pretty rainy a majority of our stay. This cabin provides ample space to spread out and relax or play on those rainy days. The cabin also felt very clean- which was very important to us. If or when we ever return to Helen, we would definitely stay here again.
