The hotel was overall a awesome stay! Its on the river which is peaceful to look at! The hotel is beautiful and perfect for couples! It was quiet for the most part! The breakfast was okay I do think it needs to be upgraded .I guess better then nothing tho. And the cleaness of the hotel is okay, the floors was a bit dirty tho. Other then that the staff was nice and its perfect for a getaway! I do recommend staying for a few njghts at Riverbend Hotels and Cabins!

We had a great time in Helen. The cabins are so close to everything we parked our car and didn’t have to drive again until we left. There are more things we wanted to do but we ran out of time. If you like shop people watch and drink beer this is a great place to visit.
