This was our first empty nesters trip to Helen, and this third floor studio was exactly what we needed. It was exceptionally clean and very cozy. Host James has done an amazing job outfitting this studio very comfortably with everything two people could need for a getaway.
It is on the top floor and requires two flights of stairs, so pack accordingly. If you're coming for tubing or Oktoberfest, this location is perfect. From the great view of the river, to the easy five minute (or less) flat walk to the Fest Halle, this place is great. (And it's just as easy to walk in the other direction to both tubing companies!)
James answered all of our questions incredibly quickly! Checking in and out was a breeze! (No long, crazy list of requirements here!)
If I could offer a couple of suggestions - it would be helpful to have the Suite # sent in advance. We received it because we arrived a little early and asked to check in, but wouldn't have known it other than reading it in a review otherwise. Also, a screened door to the patio would be lovely for temperate mornings/evenings. We'd love to take in the sounds of the river without letting in any flying pests.
We would DEFINITELY love to stay here again and recommend it wholeheartedly.
