Feels Like Home
This was a cozy little cabin very close to town. My fiance and I chose this cabin for a weekend getaway. We found the communication to be amazing with the hosts. We found it to be very clean and comfortable with a nice view down into the valley. It felt like home there. We had a blast!

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!

Perfect stay
Hubby, puppy and I will stay here again without a doubt. A beautiful little gem with plenty of room for us. Easy to use everything, great gas fireplace, perfectly appointed kitchen and lovely easy to locate and drive in. Safe to walk all about. Felt deep in nature but so close to grocery and everything we wanted to do. Hosts are truly super and kind communicators. Fly fishing superior with Turning Stones. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Hidden Gem - great couples get away!
My husband and I went to Helen to celebrate his birthday weekend. This little cabin was lovely, beautifully decorated, and had all the comforts of home! Maureen, our host went over and above to make our short stay fantastic. She was very accommodating, and even left us a birthday surprise for my husband. The unit is centrally located in Helen, making it very easy for us to check on our little dog that traveled with us. Check in was a breeze and we felt very safe in this gated community. If you are looking for a short stay or a week, you will be very comfortable in Hidden Gem! Highly recommend!

Perfect Little Cabin
My family of 4 stayed in this beautiful cabin. I have a 21 and a 16 year old. They loved the cabin. I thought it was so beautifully decorated. It had so many pretty details. Kitchen had everything you needed. Bathrooms had extra toiletries. Patio was perfect to enjoy a nice fire, beautiful views and a glass of wine. Cabin had a beautiful Christmas tree and decorated beautifully for Christmas. Getting to the cabin was easy. Had great parking in front of cabin. Cabin has great location. I can’t say enough of the hostess Maureen. She was very nice, helpful and replied very quickly. All instructions were easy to follow. Definitely would stay here again and would recommend.
