Haus in the Heart of Helen - Lower Level Suite

PARK ONCE AND WALK TO EVERYTHING! Beautifully updated LOWER-LEVEL suite has an unbeatable location steps away from Main Street. This one-bedroom retreat sleeping up to 4 guests features an open-concept layout with an elegant wooden post bed, spa-style bathroom with Jacuzzi tub, fully equipped kitchen and large private balcony to enjoy the sights and sounds of downtown Helen below. If you are coming for tubing, Oktoberfest, hiking, wineries, food and more this peaceful hideaway is for you! 🍻🏔️

We're here to help! Whether it's through messaging, texting, or a phone call. Let us know how we can accommodate your stay with us!

Located just a 60-second walk to Main Street, perfectly situated between the Georgia Mountain Coaster and Paul's Steakhouse by the Chattahoochee River Bridge.

If you’ve never been to Helen, you’re in for a treat! Our guests love Helen for its one-of-a-kind Bavarian charm, walkable downtown, and nonstop fun in every season.

The town is famous for its lively beer halls, restaurants, local shops, wine tasting rooms, and year around festivals. From tubing the Chattahoochee River in summer (right in front of the cabin!) to Oktoberfest celebrations in the fall (the longest-running Oktoberfest in the U.S.!), Helen always has something happening.

Beyond downtown, the surrounding area is packed with natural beauty—waterfalls, scenic hikes, mountain views, vineyards, lakes with public beaches, fishing, golf, and endless outdoor adventures. Whether you’re here for a romantic weekend, family fun, or an outdoor escape, Helen delivers big charm in a small, unforgettable town-it’s no surprise Helen is the 3rd most visited town in Georgia!

This listing is for the lower level suite, lower balcony and dedicated suite parking space. There is one vehicle allowed per rental, not per guest. Also note no RV's or trailers due to our steep driveway entrance. Any normal car, SUV or truck will work fine.

☆☆ CHECK OUT OUR UPPER SUITE TO KEEP YOUR GROUP TOGETHER — SLEEPS AN ADDITIONAL 4 GUESTS! ☆☆

Our property is a two-unit cabin. This listing is for the LOWER SUITE, which has its own private entrance — there are no shared indoor spaces. Please note there are stairs from the driveway leading to the entrance, and the property is not handicap accessible.

☆☆ LIVING AREA ☆☆

The primary living area is bright and open with a studio-style floor plan of approximately 700 sq. ft.

Without hesitation, we can tell you our cabin is stunningly beautiful, featuring outstanding décor and thoughtful design throughout. In the open studio space, you’ll find a freestanding Jacuzzi tub perfectly positioned between the bed and TV — so you can relax and watch your favorite shows from the tub, bed, or living area.

Inside, you’ll enjoy an updated cabin filled with charm and character. From the property, you can hear and see the river, and the expansive downtown views are excellent year-round. When the leaves fall, the elevated views of downtown Helen below are especially breathtaking.

The living area includes:

Large HDTV with streaming services

Board games and books for cozy or rainy days

The suite is beautifully decorated and designed to be especially romantic for couples. It’s furnished for a comfortable stay with everything you need.

There is also a queen-size sleeper sofa for additional guests.

If you are a very light sleeper, you may wish to bring earplugs. Depending on the season and weekend activity, you may hear some light hustle and bustle from town. We provide a sound machine for white noise.

Free on-site parking is included, and all of downtown Helen is an easy, walkable distance — even for families with small children.

We enjoyed our time in Helen, GA at this location. You could see all the Christmas lights of Helen from the front porch. You could not ask for a better location for ease of walking into town. We stayed on the lower floor of this location. The home was very clean. Steven was a great host and very easy to communicate with. The only downfall of the stay, which is stated in the description, is the noise from the upper floor with other tenants of the home. We did have to request additional bath towels/cloths as our stay was four days and only two were provided initially.

Wonderful stay! Owners are very hospitable. Lower unit is ideal for a couple. You will get your steps in! Road, driveway, and stairs are steep--worth it for the amazing views and proximity to downtown! We saw deer on the property twice! Lots of birds and squirrels for the nature lovers. Some renters commented on the noise from the bar down the hill, but we didn't find it noticeable when inside so it didn't impact our enjoyment. We wanted to be close to action, so didn't mind the tradeoff of what comes with that.
