10 / 10Outstanding·Dec 2025
This is a great cabin in both location and privacy. Even though you can see other cabins near by you feel like you have your own private woods. The location near the town of Helen is great. It is a couple of minute drive or a 15 minute walk into town. The accommodations are perfect for a large family or two small families. The kids loved the bunk room that is on the same level as the game room. The game room is great for keeping the kids entertained and the upstairs living room is nice for the adults. Having the place decorated for Christmas was a plus. Also, the fire pit is great.

Excellent cabin. Clean and convenient to downtown. We had a great time! Thanks!

My wife and I along with her two sisters and their husbands stayed in the Bear Crossing cabin for our annual Sister Christmas. It was the perfect place. Each couple not only had their own bedroom but their own bathroom. The Bear Crossing folks were very friendly and made a special effort to make sure there was a Christmas tree and decorations since we were checking in the day after thanksgiving. It was the perfect location. Up in the woods where you felt you were in the mountains, yet only a few minutes from downtown Helen. We would definitely stay there again.

House was very clean and decorated nice for the holidays. Music was playing and it smelled great inside, with some wine and important information on the counter. Great location to get to downtown Helen, but far enough away that we didn’t have to fight any downtown traffic. This cabin was great and perfect for two families with kids 8 and 13.
