Wonderful Time in Helen!
We had such a great time visiting Helen GA and staying here. Everything was so clean, the house with stocked with everything you need and overlooked a beautiful view of the woods. I also liked how parking was so easy and such a close distance to downtown. The host was so lovely and responsive whenever we needed something. I highly reccomend this home! :)

Best Couples Getaway
This mountain cabin is so cute and is truly a hidden gem! The home is beautifully decorated with mountain and fall decor. It smelled so lovely, that I even want this smell in our home. This was our first getaway in 10 years, and we loved being able to relax here when we weren't exploring Helen. I would definitely recommend this for a couples getaway. We wish we could've stayed longer, but if we do get to come back by ourselves, we would love to book our stay here again.

Perfect Getaway!
This was the cutest, best decorated and welcoming cabin in the woods! My childhood girlfriends and I snuck away to Helen for the weekend and couldn't have chosen a better place for our stay! Cabin was super clean and super comfy! The property owner, Maureen, made sure of an easy check in and check out process.... If you're looking for a place to stay in Helen, look no further!!

We loved our stay at this cozy cabin! It truly is a hidden gem. Y’all were the best hosts we have ever had. The cabin is so cute…love the decor! Spending time here was so relaxing and recharging. We loved all the activities we got to do in town as well. Thank you for everything, and we’d love to come again!

Great stay
Property was really cozy. Living room and bedrooms were comfortable and clean. The back patio is very nice. The location is close to everywhere you would like to go in the area. The only suggestion for the owner is to get slightly bigger pans for the kitchen. We cooked breakfast and dinner and it took longer than expected due to the pan sizes. Everything was great. I would recommend to stay here.

Beautiful and Tranquil
This Cabin is all it says it is and more. The Cabin is perfect for a small family, two couples, or even someone in need of solitude and peace. It is beautifully kept, clean, and well stocked. We brought our own games but found ourselves playing some of the games provided! We brought our own knives, spices, and cooking items but were pleasantly surprised to find everything we needed already in the cabin. I always bring my own toiletries but found I prefered the shampoo and condtioner that was provided. There are lots of activies in Helen. The hosts provided a great guide book about things to do and see, Hofer's of Helen is well worth the wait. It is in the host book for you to review, and you will love it. OK, back to the cabin. The deck was my favorite place in the cabin. We played cards, had dinner, and enjoyed the sound of the fire works there. We counld not see them but if you are there on the fourth of July ther is is a lot of open space on the 18th green were you can see them and talk to locals, that was fun too. You will dive by that area getting to the cabin. I have stayed at lots of VBRO rentals and this was by far the most comfortable bed ever!! Make sure you take the time to go to the pool. It is the perfect relaxation area after a day of tubing or exploring the town. :) Helen is great, this cabin made it fantastic!

Great cabin and wonderful owners
I booked this cabin for me, my teenage daughter and my mother. It was perfect size and great location. The beds were comfortable. The owners really thought of everything and were very easy to get in touch with if we needed anything. Neighbors were friendly. We enjoyed the pool and pickleball courts as well. My only suggestion would be to provide an outside broom so that we could have cleaned out the back porch (since it’s in a wooded area the back porch needs cleaned up before you can really enjoy it). Other than that, everything was great.

Delightful Helen Hideaway -
Truly a hidden gem! We absolutely fell in love with this cozy cottage. The design and layout are truly unique, being set atop a pillar on a hillside. All the decor and color scheme really set the mood for a relaxing stay. The owners are friendly and helpful hosts providing lots of tips about the area and plenty of Keurig k-cups. We enjoyed sitting on the couch by the cozy fire watching our favorite show on the smart TV. And since the cottage is so cozy, I was able to see the neighborhood bear walking by the front door. The beds are cozy and the showers come stocked with plenty of shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. In short it is a very cozy, and conveniently located cabin. We would definitely stay again. Helen and Sautee are just a hop skip and a jump away! Which means tons of outdoor adventures just a stone’s throw away.

Amazing!
We stayed in this little cabin and it was so peaceful! My husband & I both work in law enforcement so we were looking for a quiet and relaxing time & this cabin was perfect. The ride to the cabin was a little roller coasty lol its definitely up the mountain but was still very easily accessed. The owners were very quick to respond and have been amazing working with us, as my husband forgot some items and they have cordinated with us to get it mailed back. They even checked to make sure it was resolved. The cabin was very clean. The beds were comfortable. A little soft for my liking but hard to find a bed to please everyone. The rooms were a little smaller then I thought but still enough room for us. If I had one negative thing. It would be the notice of the little black bear. The owners definitely advised us we might see it. Granted we didnt. But I was very nervous to walk my dog at night. But it was exactly what we need and wanted for a week of relaxing! I would definitely recommend staying here!
