This little cabinet was amazing, from he views to all the cozy details inside the cabin. It was beautifully decorated and perfect for the 4 of us. We loved the location within 5 minutes of main st in Helen and basically up the mountain on a golf course. The host was on top of everything and responded immediately to every question. The cabin had everything we needed, we cooked every morning and night. We will defiantly come back and stay. The only thing I wish it had was a gas barbeque, even if it was small for some steaks or burgers. You wont be disappointed 10 out of 10 for us.

Stay here! The host was extremely welcoming and followed through with quick responses to our questions about the home and the area. This was an amazing location and the quaint cabin felt like home. The hosts go above and beyond to create a space that feels welcoming and offers extras that most do not. If you are looking for a quiet retreat that is clean and feels like home, book this cabin.

We enjoyed our stay! The cabin was decorated for Christmas and upon our arrival, as we entered the cabin the Christmas tree lights were on which made us feel like we were walking into our own home. Best stocked place of any that I’ve stayed, they didn’t forget anything! It’s a 10/10 for me. My only disappointment was that I didn’t get to see a bear!

My parents and I wanted to revisit some of our old camping locations while I was growing up for my 36th birthday, without the camping this time! This cabin was perfectly located in Helen nearby all of our favorite places! It was such a perfect, clean, and cozy cabin in a beautiful, safe neighborhood. The best part was that we were able to bring our fur babies Abbie and Esperanza! We did a little hiking and picnicked at Ruby Falls, Vogel State Park, and Dukes Creek Falls, and spent a whole day sight seeing and shopping around downtown Helen. We ate at Muller’s Cafe for their authentic German cuisine and to try the famous fried cheese! Their outside patio was pet friendly, which made dining out very easy with the pups. Overall excellent experience from booking to checkin and check out! And wonderful memories were made for our first family vacation together in many, many years! We hope to visit again soon! -Ceciley

We had an amazing stay at our cabin in Helen, Georgia! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the peaceful surroundings and beautiful views of the mountains and woods. The cabin was spotless, cozy, and had all the comforts of home — plus a few extras like the hot tub, fireplace, and fire pit that made our evenings extra relaxing.It was the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience — just a short drive from downtown Helen, where we enjoyed tubing on the river, exploring the Bavarian-style shops, and trying out some great local food. Coming back to the quiet cabin after a day of adventure was the highlight.The hosts were communicative, helpful, and made check-in a breeze. We honestly didn’t want to leave and are already planning our next trip back.Highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing mountain escape in North Georgia!
