Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Banks County

We used this house for a family wedding vacation and it was great!! Very beautiful and very peaceful out on the patios. Perfect for all of us. Would rent this house again.

Tracie’s place was absolutely spotless, updated, and so peaceful. We would live here full time if we could! We LOVED the fence in yard for our dogs and the screened in back porch. The hot tub & lake were so fun too. We hope to come back to catch a Clemson football game in the fall.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! We loved it so much, this was our 2nd stay. Group of 13 friends just hanging out for the weekend. Things that stand out include the absolutely pristine bathrooms and the fully stocked kitchen. All the pans, utensils, cutting boards, baking pans, etc. you need. Lots of places I've been to don't have things like measuring cups but they have everything. When we had questions, response was fast. Nice common area for everyone to hang out in. Just a great place.

Perfect place to stay when visiting Piedmont University. Ally and Brad were great and responded to questions quickly. They let us check in early and check out late. Great stay!

Our stay was incredible! The home matched the listing exactly. Danielle and Erik were great communicators and made our trip super easy. Location was amazing - an easy walk to downtown Helen, which has so much to do! Amazing restaurants, bars, and shops. The outdoor space is stunning - right in the water. Easily accommodated our group, and we had a wonderful stay. We hope to stay here again next time we visit!

Definitely 5++ star review. Everything we needed was already there. Best experience with Airbnb yet. Our family enjoyed everything Hardystone had to offer. We never had to turn on a TV because there were so many activities to keep everyone entertained. From Ping Pong and Pool Tournaments to Paddle Boarding to S’mores by the fire! We will most definitely rent through this group again!

Josh was a very friendly, responsive host and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. The location of the property was beautiful and close to downtown Helen while still feeling like you’re out in nature. Also the place is huge so had more than enough room for everyone on our trip!

Came into town for work. I really enjoyed stay here. Very quiet and close to town.

This place was the cleanest Airbnb I've ever stayed at. It appeared all new. The location was amazing. Everything in Helen was walkable. I was concerned being on it first floor it would be loud. It was not at all. I would recommend anyone to stay here.

Great place to stay! Will stay again!

My husband + I loved our second stay at Kendra and Steve’s River Suite! They are such gracious hosts and have a beautiful little slice of heaven in Helen. We are already talking about our next visit! 💜

Great host and even greater location! Loved this place, very clean and well taken care of. Host was very responsive and a pleasure to communicate with!

Great location and convenient to area restaurants, events, etc. This was our second visit and we look forward to staying here the next time we're in town. The space is clean, quiet and fun to explore.

The place is wonderful and feels new, actually I think it is. Everything was clean and well maintained. The layout of the apartment was really good. The only thing I think should be changed is the checkout time; 10:00 am is really early, maybe 12:00 pm will be a better time. Also, to have a Publix so close is wonderful. Thanks Aveline for everything.

Loved our stay. Walter is such a bonus. We will reach out to see if this place is available the next time we’re in town.

My husband stays at Carmen's place when he comes for business and now I got to see firsthand why he loves to come back. Her home was beautifully decorated, yet very comfortable and homey. She thought of everything for her guests, from breakfast casseroles, baked goodies, to fresh eggs! I have been to many Airbnb's, but she was by far the most considerate and responsive host ever. I also loved the location is this small, University town. The campus was lovely to take daily walks, and we ate at the two amazing restaurants within a stones throw of the home - Sweet Breads and Holden Oversoul. I hope to return to Tomlin House and highly recommend it!

We needed a quiet weekend away and this cabin was perfect. Loved the hot tub on the deck under the stars.

This is a great space! The cabin is very clean and comfortable. My son and I had a very pleasant stay! Definitely heed the warning about the road leading directly to the cabin, it is one lane, not paved and the ruts are pretty deep with roots and rocks sticking out. If you have a low profile vehicle, expect some scrapes. I was able to navigate it fairly easily and didn’t experience any issues. Very much appreciated the creamer for the coffee, it was a pleasant surprise to find! The hosts provide a lot of information and are responsive if questions arise. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a relaxing, cabin stay in the woods.

Our family had a great time at this adorable cabin, we had three families who came from all different areas and this was the perfect spot for our families to spend quality time together! The husbands really enjoyed the fire pit and hanging out on the deck. The moms loved how spacious it was so the kids could run around and play together. The neighborhood is also very private so you don’t have to worry about cars passing through. Outside was beautiful, the scenery is so peaceful. There was plenty of privacy for each family on all 3 floors, we never felt on top of each other or crowded. The town Helen is about 16 minutes away and has a very unique look and feel to it. There were so many neat shops that sold souvenirs, candies, and fun experiences. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!

I love this place this was my first time coming to Helen and I must say we had an amazing time to home was beautiful and clean and peaceful I loved it will book again!

The cabin was very clean and easy to find. The host was very friendly and provided lots of information on activities to do around the area. I love how private and cosy the cabin was. It wasn't far from downtown Helen and there was plenty to do. We would definitely stay here again for our next trip!

We really enjoyed the cabin and the surrounding area was very beautiful

We loved this tiny cabin!! Perfect location being close to Helen & Cleveland. Would stay again!

Awesome place to stay, downtown Helen is a very short drive away, fishing and hikes even closer. Plenty of space, nice and clean. Perfect place for a nature lover with it the fire pit being right next to the creek. Would definitely recommend and will be coming back!
