"Nice place! Far enough away to feel secluded but close enough to downtown Helen to eat and shop."

About this cabin rental

Welcome to Bear Cub 1! Back on inventory in 2026 after renovations and redecorating, this cabin was formerly named Cricket Hill and then Helen Cabin 1.

This cozy little cabin is located in Helen. Less than half a mile from Betty's Country Store and 2 miles from Unicoi State Park, you have the best of both worlds in nature and a small Bavarian town in the North Georgia Mountains.

The master bedroom is located on the main floor. This room features a queen bed and a back deck. Enjoy a soak and massage in the indoor jetted garden tub or take a relaxing shower in the master bathroom. The loft area has a queen bed and its own bathroom with a walk-in shower. The door in the loft also leads outside to a small deck. There is also streaming television and WiFi internet service. The Roku TV channel offers free live television. Don't forget to bring your login information for your Netflix, Hulu and other channel subscriptions.

The kitchen is fully equipped with a microwave, toaster and a dual standard drip and k-cup coffee maker. Enjoy any meal al fresco with the table, umbrella and four chairs on the same deck. Please note that the fireplace at Bear Cub 1 is currently non-functional.

Bear Cub 1 is within the town limits of Helen, GA. Helen is one of the most beautiful sections of Northeast Georgia. This mountain community has a wide variety of natural attractions.

The area also holds more than 200 specialty and import shops.

Nice place! Far enough away to feel secluded but close enough to downtown Helen to eat and shop.

Over all it is perfect for me, and my crew. A four wheel drive vehicle is best for the steep driveway. I can see some potential struggle with a two wheel drive, but you can always park at the top of the hill. My only grievance is with the gas grill…. It’s crap. (To the owner, replace your grill) half of it wouldn’t light and the working half struggled. It’s a lovely place, and we will return in the future most likely. It’s older, and needs some minor attention, but there again this place is perfect even though it’s not the fanciest place out there. I will go back! Thanks for a wonderful stay!!

The cabin was so nice and quiet!! There are other cabins around but it still felt secluded. We will absolutely be staying here again!!
6 / 10Average·Jul 2022
The cabin was nice, but the road to the cabin left much to be desired. If I did not have an SUV I doubt I would have been able to reach the cabin. The road was rutted with a lot of loose gravel. I lost traction several times and had to find another line to avoid undercarriage damage. Besides the road we enjoyed our stay.
