The Experience

Imagine Your Perfect Stay

A MULTI-LEVEL MOUNTAIN SANCTUARY

Oben Retreat is a spacious, two-story townhome meticulously designed to offer both sophisticated social spaces and private corners for rest. The main level serves as the heart of the home, featuring an open-concept living area where a cozy fireplace and Roku Smart TV invite you to unwind. Beyond the primary living room, a bonus family room—equipped with a sleeper sofa and its own Smart TV—provides a secondary sanctuary for movie nights or quiet relaxation.

 

GOURMET DINING & LOFT ENTERTAINMENT

For the culinary enthusiast, the fully equipped kitchen features sleek stainless steel appliances and a dedicated coffee station, making it easy to prepare everything from a quick trail breakfast to a full family feast. Share your meals around the dining table with seating for six, then head upstairs to the entertainment loft. This open-air space is a guest favorite, featuring a pool table, an array of board games, and a chess set—perfect for friendly competition after a day in Helen.

 

PRIVATE SUITES & RESTFUL NIGHTS

This retreat offers a thoughtful layout for families or friends traveling together. The main level houses a spacious king suite with direct access to a full bathroom, while the upper level features a comfortable queen bedroom and an adjacent second full bathroom. Every bed is outfitted with high-quality linens to ensure a restful night’s sleep in the quiet mountain air.

 

THE OUTDOOR OASIS

The experience continues outdoors on the partially covered private deck, where the forest serves as your backdrop. Grill your local favorites on the gas BBQ, then retreat to the wood-burning firepit for stories and s’mores under the stars. For the ultimate in relaxation, soak your cares away in the private 4-person hot tub, perfectly positioned to enjoy the tranquil wooded surroundings.

 

During your stay, you will enjoy exclusive and private access to the entire two-story townhouse. From the entertainment loft and dual living areas to your secluded outdoor oasis—including the private deck, hot tub, and wood-burning firepit—the entire residence is yours to enjoy without interruption.

 

Seamless Arrival & Parking: We aim to make your transition into mountain life as effortless as possible. Private on-site parking for two vehicles is provided directly in front of the unit, ensuring easy access for loading and unloading.

 

Secure Contactless Entry: As your professional hosts, we utilize a secure, keyless entry system. You will receive a personalized access code prior to your arrival, allowing for a fully contactless and flexible check-in. Whether you arrive in the afternoon or after a late dinner in Helen, your retreat will be ready and waiting for you.

 

We believe a true retreat should offer total privacy, which is why we provide a fully contactless check-in via a secure smart lock. You are free to settle in and enjoy the townhome and the mountain air at your own pace.

 

Professional Support When You Need It: As Licensed Realtors and local residents, we—along with our trusted local team—are dedicated to your five-star experience. While we respect your space, we are always just a quick message or phone call away if you need assistance with the property or would like professional recommendations on the best hiking trails, dining, or hidden gems in the Nacoochee Valley. Whether you have a question about the hot tub or need a last-minute dinner suggestion in Helen, we are here to ensure your stay is seamless and stress-free

 

Oben Retreat offers the rare and coveted balance of wooded seclusion and walkable convenience. Situated on a quiet, tree-lined street within the Innsbruck resort area, you are just a short, scenic stroll from the vibrant heart of downtown Helen. As local Realtors, we selected this location specifically for guests who want to be 'in the center of it all' without sacrificing the peace of a mountain sanctuary.

 

Alpine Charm at Your Doorstep: Leave the car behind and walk to Helen’s most iconic attractions. You are minutes away from the festive Festhalle (the epicenter of Oktoberfest celebrations), the adrenaline of the Georgia Mountain Coaster, and a curated selection of wine-tasting rooms and Bavarian-style restaurants.

 

A Seasonal Masterpiece: During the autumn months, Oben Retreat is enveloped in the vibrant golds and crimsons of the North Georgia canopy. Whether you are exploring the nearby trails of Unicoi State Park, marveling at Anna Ruby Falls, or simply enjoying the crisp air from your private deck, you are perfectly positioned to experience the best of the Nacoochee Valley in every season.

 

One of the greatest luxuries of Oben Retreat is its incredible proximity to the village. Located less than half a mile from downtown Helen, you can enjoy a leisurely stroll to the village’s premier restaurants, riverfront shops, and signature attractions like the Georgia Mountain Coaster and the Helen Festhalle.

 

Parking & Convenience: Forget the stress of finding public parking in town. We provide free parking for two vehicles located directly in front of the townhome. Most of our guests find that a mix of light walking and short drives is the perfect way to navigate the area.

 

Exploring the Region: While the heart of Helen is walkable, we recommend a vehicle for those looking to venture further into the North Georgia landscape. From our front door, you are just a short drive away from:

· Unicoi State Park & Anna Ruby Falls for premier hiking and waterfalls.

· The North Georgia Wine Trail, featuring world-class vineyards and tasting rooms.

· Scenic Mountain Drives through the Chattahoochee National Forest.

 

Whether you are here for a pedestrian-friendly festival weekend or a scenic driving tour of the Blue Ridge foothills, Oben Retreat serves as your perfectly positioned home base.

 

· Professional Management: Oben Retreat is managed by Licensed Realtors Todd and Jenny Rose Chandler. Our local expertise and commitment to a five-star standard ensure that your townhome is meticulously prepared and that our team is available to assist you throughout your stay.

· Seamless Digital Check-In: For your convenience and privacy, check-in is fully contactless via a secure keypad system. To ensure you have everything you need for a smooth arrival, your unique door code will be sent to you both 24 hours in advance and again on the morning of your stay.

· Spontaneous Getaways: We are pleased to welcome same-day bookings when the calendar permits. Whether you are planning a long-awaited vacation or a last-minute mountain escape, our professional cleaning team ensures the retreat is ready for your arrival.

· Seasonal Ambiance: To enhance your mountain experience, the indoor fireplace is available for use during the cooler months, typically from Labor Day through Memorial Day.

· A Pristine Environment: To maintain the high quality of this townhome for all guests, we observe a strict no-pet and smoke-free policy. This allows us to offer an allergy-friendly and pristine sanctuary for every traveler.

Greg and Cindy's townhome was perfect for our weekend in Helen. It's located in a private away from the crowded town, but close to everything. I loved the layout with two cozy sitting areas, a gameroom, deck, and great bedrooms, and bathrooms. The kitchen was nice as well, although I didn't use it. Unfortunately, due to the weather forecast, there was an ice storm and state of emergency the weekend I stayed, my other guests chose not to come. I had to leave early and cut my trip short, but we will certainly stay here again if ever in the area. Thanks so much for your hospitality.
