Helen is a re-creation of an Alpine village in northeast Georgia. The city is in the Blue Ridge Mountains on the Chattahoochee River. German-themed shops and restaurants line cobblestone paths through Helen; yearly events include Oktoberfest, Winefest and Bavarian Nights of Summer. Cabin rentals are available throughout the city in different settings, styles and sizes. The town's proximity to the Chattahoochee River makes it easy to find a riverside cabin.
Located within one block of downtown Helen, Riverbend Cabins are in a more public area on the Chattahoochee River than other secluded cabins. Cabin may include Jacuzzi tub, sleeper sofa, full kitchen, gas fireplace, grill, picnic area and river view. There is an upstairs loft and living room; cabins sleep up to four people. Seasonal rates apply and group rates are available.
