Both have a sitting area where you can enjoy a cup of hot coffee or tea from our coffee bar.

We enjoyed our stay! The cabin was decorated for Christmas and upon our arrival, as we entered the cabin the Christmas tree lights were on which made us feel like we were walking into our own home. Best stocked place of any that I’ve stayed, they didn’t forget anything! It’s a 10/10 for me. My only disappointment was that I didn’t get to see a bear!

The cabin was in an ideal spot, surrounded by mountainous terrain and beautiful forest, but close to neighbors so you don’t feel isolated . The cabin was so well appointed with a bear decor. It was comfortable, clean and cozy. Our host was attentive and accommodating to our every need. This truly is a hidden gem.

My parents and I wanted to revisit some of our old camping locations while I was growing up for my 36th birthday, without the camping this time! This cabin was perfectly located in Helen nearby all of our favorite places! It was such a perfect, clean, and cozy cabin in a beautiful, safe neighborhood. The best part was that we were able to bring our fur babies Abbie and Esperanza! We did a little hiking and picnicked at Ruby Falls, Vogel State Park, and Dukes Creek Falls, and spent a whole day sight seeing and shopping around downtown Helen. We ate at Muller’s Cafe for their authentic German cuisine and to try the famous fried cheese! Their outside patio was pet friendly, which made dining out very easy with the pups. Overall excellent experience from booking to checkin and check out! And wonderful memories were made for our first family vacation together in many, many years! We hope to visit again soon! -Ceciley

We had an amazing stay at our cabin in Helen, Georgia! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the peaceful surroundings and beautiful views of the mountains and woods. The cabin was spotless, cozy, and had all the comforts of home — plus a few extras like the hot tub, fireplace, and fire pit that made our evenings extra relaxing.It was the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience — just a short drive from downtown Helen, where we enjoyed tubing on the river, exploring the Bavarian-style shops, and trying out some great local food. Coming back to the quiet cabin after a day of adventure was the highlight.The hosts were communicative, helpful, and made check-in a breeze. We honestly didn’t want to leave and are already planning our next trip back.Highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing mountain escape in North Georgia!

Wonderful Retreat

Hidden Gem is just that! We had a restful time tucked in the woods listening to birds and restoring our bodies and souls. The place is so beautifully decorated and clean; makes it easy to relax. Day trips to Anna Ruby Falls and into Helen and Sautee made afternoon outings a joy. Would return in a heartbeat. Maureen and Bill are excellent hosts and easy to reach with any questions.

A Perfect Mountain Escape – Even for Our Cat!

We just returned from a 3-night stay at the Hidden Gem Cabin in the Innsbruck golf community of Helen, GA, and it truly lived up to its name. Tucked away in a peaceful, wooded setting but still close to downtown Helen, the cabin offered the perfect mix of seclusion and convenience.The cabin was clean, beautifully decorated, and well-stocked with everything we needed—from kitchen essentials to cozy blankets. One of the biggest highlights for us was that they welcomed our cat! It’s hard to find pet-friendly places that allow cats, and we really appreciated that this cabin made it easy for the whole family to come along.Being inside the Innsbruck golf community also added a unique touch—well-kept grounds, a sense of security, and of course, quick access to a great course.Highly recommend for couples, small families, or anyone looking for a quiet mountain getaway (with or without a furry friend). We’re already looking forward to our next visit.
