Excellent outside amenities and an amazing location.
This was a beautiful place. Outside the yard, river access and all of the amenities you could ask for are amazing. Inside was very nice as well. Wonderful place to stay.
Loved everything about the Chattahoochee Cabin! Perfect location, beautiful scenery, comfortable beds and lodging! We had so much fun on our adventure to Helen, Georgia!
We had a great time staying at the Chattahoochee Charmer. Beautiful home right on the river. Sitting outside relaxing in the evenings was the best listening to the river roll by.
Perfect for families. Lots of amenities for everyone of every age to do. Great location on the river and walking distance into town. We had such a peaceful and relaxing stay. The host thought of everything that we didn't even know we needed to make our stay great.
Definitely would stay here again.
My family of 4 had a great stay in this cabin. Backyard has gorgeous view of river. My family enjoyed the outdoor living space and we liked that it was within walking distance of all the shops and restaurants of downtown Helen.
The cabin's location is excellent right on the river. We really enjoyed our family vacation and the fire pit at night was great. There were a few issues regarding the cleaning company that was discovered on check-in. However, Billy made sure to rectify the situation including a personal visit to the cabin. We would definitely recommend staying here.
We have stayed at the “Chattahoochee Charmer” for several times on our yearly trip to Helen. The river view from this home is beautiful and you can walk downtown. It snowed on our last day and was beautiful with the Christmas decorations downtown. The owners are very attentive and respond to any issues promptly. Thanks for sharing your home with us!
Rented this property for labor day weekend with my husband and our friends. It is a perfect location right on the river and a short walk to downtown. We spent a majority of the time just sitting on the river enjoying the view. Perfectly slept all 8 of us, though i will say the 3rd bedroom isnt really a room but it wasnt a problem for us. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!
Nice cabin! Great location! Owner was amazing with communication! So happy that all TV’s had Direct TV and very easy to use! Well equipped in the kitchen. Cabin could have been a little cleaner, but overall a great place! We had a very nice time for my Mom’s birthday!
The Chattahoochie Charmer was a very nice property and was nice for entertaining indoors and particularly nice with its great outdoor living spaces - multi-level balconies, ample seating, fire pit, horseshoes, cornhole, darts, outdoor TV area, and awesome, tree-shaded views of the Chattahoochie! Also very easy 1/2 mile walk to the main tourist attractions of Helen!
My family and I really enjoyed our long weekend here. The cabin is roomy, the furniture comfortable, it had everything we needed with a lot of fun amenities provided. It was so nice to just be able to walk downtown and not have to worry about parking. My parents are in their 80's (and in good health) and had zero problems with the walk to town. We enjoyed sitting out on the deck and down by the river talking to all the people floating by. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
The location and views were great. It was peaceful sitting on the deck looking at the river. It was very clean and the host responded immediately when contacted. The only downside is the spiral staircase that goes to the loft. It is very steep and luggage was difficult to get upstairs. The upstairs would not be suitable for very small children.
The Chattahoochee Charmer exceeded our expectations. The location was fantastic, close to town which allowed us to walk to dinner and shopping very convenient. The backyard is even better in person, so much space.The hot tub was great in the chilly evening and the fire pit provided the perfect ambience. The house was comfortable and met all of our needs. We will defiantly be back. Thank you to the hosts that were very responsive to all of our questions. I strongly recommend this property.
Chattahoochee charmer is always our favorite place to stay in Helen. It is so convenient for the kids to play in the water and for all of us to float the river. The kids can ride their bikes into town. We adults can be lazy and hang out at the house or choose to play corn hole or horseshoes! We bring our own tubes so we can float multiple times during our trip. We love Helen, and the Chattahoochee charmer!
Nice place on the river away from all the rest of the crowd. After a night of Oktoberfest, we kicked back next to the fire pit with a bundle of wood supplied by the owners, and watched the fire and the river with a full moon! Very relaxing. We also were pleased with the outdoor television under the deck and watched the Dawgs beat the Gators before heading back into town for the festivities. There is a shortcut that takes you to the back of Paul’s which makes getting to town easy. The house was clean and very comfortable, and we all slept well.
We have stayed at many other places in Helen and would definitely stay here again!

Great Outside Space
Love the outside space and location especially learning of the quick wood path to downtown. However, I would not consider this a luxury cabin without the higher end details such as updated bathrooms. Plus, the counter tops and toilets are very low. The host was easy to contact and thank goodness since our water was cut off with a lock on the meter. We were refunded one night of our stay, and it was corrected the next morning. We love to throw darts, but the dart board isn't really usable. Otherwise, the outdoor space is where we spent our time and it did not disappoint!!!!
