Minutes from Helen, Ga. tubing on the Chattahoochee, Unicoi State Park. Within 10 minutes of local award-winning wineries: Yonah Mountain Vineyards, Serenity Cellars, and Cenitas Vineyards, to name a few. Take a hike or go mountain biking at nearby Yonah Mountain Preserve. Helen has all the entertainment you need for the whole family: Georgia Mountain Coaster, Water Park, Zip Lines, and mini golf. Don't forget to visit Baby Land General in Cleveland!

Enjoy cooking in the large eat-in kitchen. The table seats 8, plus 3 bar stools. Fiber Optic high speed internet just installed! Work remotely and enjoy all the North Georgia Mountains has to offer. Reading nook upstairs for the kids to play with toys, read or write. Master bedroom has a private balcony facing the mountains . Cozy living room with plenty of space, and separate sitting room. Three large bedrooms upstairs give plenty of sleeping space. The basement has an air hockey table, poker/game table, ping pong, foosball and safety dartboard.

The cabin has generous deck space to enjoy the view while having a BBQ, (charcoal grill provided) or having a glass of wine. Take a stroll down to the fire pit and relax in the comfortable adirondak chairs while toasting marshmallows. Now that cooler weather is here, cozy up under our weighted blankets on each bed.

This is a beautiful setting you can enjoy all year long. Easy access roads to this cabin.

The space and quietness of the outdoors was a top reason for our rating. Tom was responsive in answering our questions. The flow of the house allowed all three generations space, when alone time was needed. Our children and granddaughter enjoyed the game room and hot tub. If we go back to Helen will definitely book with Tom again.

Great, beautiful cabin! Lots of toys and games for the kids. Plenty dishes and cookware in the kitchen. Beautiful scenery with wildlife there daily. Only complaint we have was the water pressure. The cabin is on a shared well so there were times when there wasn’t much water pressure. We enjoyed our stay! The kids didn’t want to leave!

The pictures of this property do not do it justice. I am the cooker for the family and the kitchen had everything I needed. The fire pit was awesome with a sighting of deer running in the woods. The basement was great with table games to keep the kids entertained. If we come back to visit this area we will stay here again. This is the most beautiful VRBO we have stayed in. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Great Summer Getaway

We had a blast on our vacation to helen. The black bear lodge was the perfect cozy place to come back to after a long day. So much fun stuff to do at the house too when we were too lazy to get out. Looked playing games and making smores with the kiddos!
