Overall the resort needs some major upkeep. Its to be expected for the area to be dated as far as furniture and all goes, but really needs to be refreshed in general. We were supposed to stay 3 nights, but left after 2. The first condo we stayed in fit our family fine and had everything we needed. The first morning we woke up to at least 50 "potato bugs", little white round roach bugs all over the bathroom floor. We notified the front desk, and they were very kind and apologetic. They moved us to another room in the same building. It was clean and an upgrade from our other condo. The next morning, we found lots of spiders in the showers. Bugs are to be expected in the woods, but we've been to Helen 4 times and never seen so many. Again, the staff is very kind, but this resort definitely needs a lot of TLC. The waterslides were closed, the clubhouse is very lacking, just a pool table. Its close to town with a walking path to get there thru the woods that comes out to a dumster area behind Pauls Resturants. The playground is in very rough shape for the kids. It was sad really. I'm sure in its day it was the place to stay in Helen. Hopefully someday it will be brought back to life.

Comfortable Stay, but need renovations.
So much potential for 5 star status. Needs renovations and some more upkeep. Rugs can be changed completely. But it is in a good location, quiet and clean restrooms. Lots is space for a family. Wish more of the amenities were available. We checked in the middle of the night and I called the manager. She answered and stayed with us on the phone until we arrived. We appreciated that.

Overall the trip was great but the property condition needs improvement. The dishes in the cabinets had food still on them. That wasn't a huge deal because I just washed them again. The master bathroom toilet seat was broken and I almost fell off the commode several times. The boards leading to the office are super slippery. The location of the property is ideal, with a very short walk to all the shops and food. The pool was good.

Would book again.
While dated and run down, the resort is still pretty good! Two potential issues: 1) It was raining today and the patio coming into the door of the condo is SLICK as owl crap with the algae that’s growing there. The walkway from the door to the stairs is NOT covered and you will get soaked while exiting. 2) There’s a VERY weak spot in the floor in the den area. As with most mountain cabins, the winding road up is precariously narrow. Otherwise we’re happy! The pool area and river access is great, but be warned the current right at the resort is STRONG. The room is very dated, but homey. Daughter enjoyed the jacuzzi tub. There are a few small maintenance repairs that should probably be done. The decor could be better. But it’s quiet, safe, and affordable. DON’T MISS THE WALKING TRAIL CUT THROUGH TO TOWN!!! Super convenient.

Hideaway
The place is hidden away from the main stretch, yet within walking distance of downtown Helen. We would park by the clubhouse and just walk the trail to Main St. The property is dated, but provides plenty of amenities. You get to see some wildlife. The pool and hot tub are great, excellent for cooling off after a hot day doing touristy stuff. The clubhouse has a pool table and a couple tables for games. The property has several grills and picnic tables. Our room had a hair dryer, washer&dryer and a fully equipped kitchen. Rosie at the frontdesk was very helpful and so pleasant! We are looking forward to return.

The room we booked stated that it was a loft unit with a bedroom and a loft and one bathroom. The one we got had two bedrooms and two bathrooms, no loft. We were happy to have the extra bathroom, but please note that the description of the room does not match the actual room. It could be they just give you whatever is available. The resort was nice but needed updates. The location was good. There are some steep driveways going up to the unit, but our little four-cylinder car got us up there all right.

The property is nice and quite but the sheets were dirty and the room had a terrible smell. We had to go out and buy a candle. Besides that we enjoyed our stay.
