Owner's Map of Helen
Susan and I have been coming to the North Georgia Mountains and Helen for over 28 years. We custom built Bear Crossing as our "home away from home". What excites us most when we are there is the privacy, great location, Helen and all the other North Georgia attractions.

My friends and I could not get over how beautiful it was at Bear Crossing. Immaculately clean and every need met from start to finish. The owners were very responsive to our every need. Thank you again and again for a terrific weekend.

Such a lovely home

We spent Christmas at Bear Crossing and had such a wonderful and memorable stay. The home is lovely and the owners have thought of everything to make your stay easy and fun. The hot tub is delightful, the beds are comfortable and the design/layout of the home was perfect for us...a family with parents, 2 children, a dog and a grandmother! We had a ball and Susan was so helpful as we planned our stay (where to eat, what stables to use, etc). We would highly recommend this cottage to anyone who would be considering a stay close to Helen. We also enjoyed being so close to Unicoi State Park!

We had such a lovely stay at the cabin in early October. The owners have thought of everything in furnishing, decorating and stocking this cabin for vacationers -- even board games for the kids! Everything was immaculately clean and very well organized (and labeled!). When we couldn't get one of the televisions to work, the owners went above and beyond to get the issue resolved. I cannot say enough good things about the owners. The cabin is also very conveniently located to Unicoi State Park and downtown Helen. I would highly recommend this cabin to others, and we look forward to being return customers in the future!

Stunning cabin outside Helen, Ga
Guest: R

Review Submitted: 09/06/11
We have stayed in several homes now via VRBO and this is possibly the best. The owners have an absolutely immaculate home in the North Georgia mountains and have thought of everything to make their guests feel comfortable and at home. The kitchen is well-stocked, the hot tub was a big hit and everyone enjoyed swinging on the front porch. The cabin is just a few miles outside of Helen and right next door to the Onicoi State Park. The park has scenic Anna Ruby Falls, miles of great trails, and a decent brunch buffet. Helen was kitschy fun, but actually had some great German food (Hofer's is awesome!) and a couple of the best masseuses we've been to in awhile down at the Healthy Foot Spa. I don't tend towards gushing in my reviews, but this place is most deserving!

An wonderful week of retreat at Bear Crossing

Just want everyone to know what an awesome place Bear Crossing is for a retreat from the cares of the world. My wife, my fath-in-law and I had such a wonderful week at Bear Crossing and we are thrilled to refer it to you. The cabin has everything you need to relax and the owners (Jerry & Susan) are so easy to work with. Thank you both for sharing your place of retreat with us!

Perfect Retreat in Helen
Guest: John and Jayma

Date of Stay: 07/06/11
Review Submitted: 07/15/11
Conveniently located within minutes of Helen and all of its activities, this cabin is an immaculate, well appointed home that offered privacy, comfort, relaxation, and a comfortable amount of room for our party of six. Quite candidly, the home is better appreciated in person than the pictures convey. Regardless of the time that one wants to spend in Helen proper, this home served easily as a base of operations for other journeys to local sites such as waterfalls and neighboring towns including those in NC. Around Helen, I would suggest Betty's: what a great grocery store! I would recommend this cabin highly without hesitation: the owners of this home make it extremely easy to rent and enjoy!

Absolutely perfect mountain retreat
Guest: Billy & Kristi
(Prattville, AL)
Date of Stay: 04/06/11
Review Submitted: 04/21/11
This cabin was absolutely the perfect place to get away for peace and relaxation. It is emaculate, very comfortable and equipped for anything a person may need. The description is correct when it says all you need are your clothes. The back patio was perfect for grilling out and then to just relax in the hot tub or in the hammock reading a book. We had not been to Helen before and didn't know what to expect. It was beyond anything we could have dreamed. From the moment we walked in the door until we left (by the way we added another day because we didn't want to leave) everything was awesome. The town of Helen was great and had everything you could ask for (Kristi shopped until she dropped). Working with Susan from the 1st email to book the cabin, to the follow up call after we checked out was amazing. She is very friendly and will do her best to accomodate your every need. We would highly recommend this cabin to everyone who needs a little rest and relaxtion. We would also recommend Sunburst Stables for a great afternoon outing. The horses and land are beautiful and the zip-lining was a blast. (Be sure to check out HOLY COW! on the zipline). Thank you Susan for allowing us to use your beautiful cabin. We will definitely be back soon.

Review Submitted: 04/14/11
My husband, myself and two of his sisters just spent 6 days and nights in this lovely cabin to attend our son's wedding at Unicoi. We could reach the Park in minutes, as well as downtown Helen. We also visited Sautee's Country Store, covered wooden bridge and Gift Shops. What a treat. A drive to Toccoa Falls and Tallulah Gorge was an easy trip, leaving late and arriving back to the cabin in plenty of time to rest in one day. Bear Crossing is well maintained, furnished with everything you need and forget to take. It is beautifully decorated and comfortable. I loved the split floor plan and the kitchen is any woman's dream. It is equipped with all you need and more. Be sure and have at least one cup of coffee with the cute mug face which I hogged every day. I enjoyed the front porch but I stayed on the back deck as I much as I could, it was so relaxing, private and big. We all left with regrets and I still miss not being there. Everything you read in the listing of Bear Crossing is 100% correct and the cleanest cabin you will ever stay in. Susan is one of the nicest people I have ever done business with, she is the perfect hostess and goes out of her way to be helpful, so do yourself a favor and plan a trip to Helen and stay at Bear Crossing, you won't regret it. I would definitely stay there again.
