    This was not really a problem for us, but we did book a handicapped accessible room due to bad knees. Due to being right on the river, the first floor was one flight up from the ground. The ramp is extremely steep (guessing 18-25% angle). We managed it, but a person in a manual chair would have trouble without assistance. Also, the roll/walk-in shower and bathroom floor were very slippery when wet. We put towels down and had no trouble. I just wanted to mention it for anyone who might be renting to keep in mind. This was by no means a deal breaker for us. We were in room 112.

    Loved the location. Right on the river and just a short walk into town. So quiet, as it's kind of a dead end at the river. Even with the wind and the fact we're seniors, no problem walking into town center. Every staff member we encountered was warm and genuinely attentive. Bed was very comfortable. Grounds were immaculate, and the room was also very clean. Extremely well lit after dark. Nice swings at the river's edge, even has designated swing for handicapped with concrete right up to the swing for easy transfer. Even though the property is not new, it appears to be very well-maintained with updated amenities in the rooms. Also, the parking pass was good all day until midnight of check-out day, which was handy for shopping and eating on our last day.

    not so much a complaint but an observation. there are no garbage cans along the river, despite signs saying to clean up after yourself (there is one at the corner of the building however). I would recommend adding one or two cans so so people that have no manners wont put their garbage in the hibachis—maybe?

    great location and on the river. 500’ (maybe less) to the center of the action in Helen. clearly an older property but well maintained and well appointed rooms for the price. plenty of swings/tables along the river and hibachis.

    Breakfast was not what we expected, a prepackaged muffin and coffee was offered both mornings. The cleaning of the sink and shower was definitely lacking. Price seemed a little steep for what we got. Mainly the breakfast and cleanliness was disappointing.

    The location was excellent, was definitely the biggest plus! Staff were very friendly. The rooms looked to have been updated recently. The bed was very comfortable and I liked the provided soaps and shampoos very much.

    The only thing I did not like was that the hotwater heater does not hold enough water to fill the jetted tub in the cabin.

    Location of the cabin was amazing and perfect for myself and my wife on our anniversary.

    Loved the staff and the location was 100%! Swings by the river were a nice escape from the crowds, but you could also walk to town.
