Cabin is in a great location behind the Helen Fun Factory, we walked everywhere over the weekend. The creek running underneath the back porch is very relaxing. Love coming to Helen so will keep this cabin in mind for future visits!

Wonderful Stay

I highly recommend staying at Bear Creek Cabin! The stream by the cabin made for such a peaceful environment and the cabin itself is very quaint and cute. My family loved it!

Lovely, quiet stay

What a cute cabin! Our kiddos loved it and called it our gingerbread house. It’s a very walkable distance to downtown (about 10 minutes), which was perfect. The cabin had plenty of space for our 4 person family. The back deck was nice and big, plenty of seating. It’s tucked away from major roads and other cabins, so it’s very private. We loved the fireplace! We will definitely consider this cabin again for future trips to Helen.

Great location in Helen

The cabin was clean and cozy. The location was great as it's within walking distance to the main street in Helen, but felt very private since it's set back in the woods.

Lovely Helen

We stayed as a 3 day break on a road trip in the Deep South and then up to Washington DC. A welcome break in an interested "mock Bavarian" town. A great base to rest-up and relax and super-peaceful, but for the incredible sounds of nature. An unbelievably short walk into town which was great as parking in the evening looked challenging.

Great place to stay in Helen!

We had a wonderful time in Helen GA and this cute little cabin was the cherry on top! Great accommodations and perfect location to walk downtown. We loved having coffee by the creek in the backyard each morning! We will be back!

Cute little cabin in the woods!

The cabin was perfect for our family of 5. We enjoyed being out of the busy area of downtown. We were slightly concerned arriving at night because it is back behind some businesses and we were sure we were lost but there are signs to assure you are on the right path. The bunk beds could use a little tightening but it wasn’t terrible. (Squeaky) overall we were pleased with our stay!!

A nice cabin away from the noise

Some reviews state that the road back to the cabin is a little creepy at night… is a cabin so is better if located away from the town… still a very small walk , still a very safe location… enjoy it very much

Great getaway!

We booked this trip long before we knew of hurricane Helene. We decided to take the chance and head down from Kentucky anyway. The cabin we originally booked had no power, with no ETA on when it might. They graciously offered us a different cabin that did have power located closer to town. The cabin was clean, well maintained, and in walking distance to all the fun in Helen. We had a great time!! Thank you Blue Creek Cabins for working with us in a trying time and making our weekend getaway great!!

So Peaceful!

Wonderful place to stay in Helen, Georgia. This is our second time at Black Bear Creek cabin and we have already booked again for October. This cabin is perfect, close enough to walk to town, but yet secluded & away from all the noise. So relaxing, sitting on the back porch listing to the creek! Everything you need is at the cabin to cook a great meal. We will stay at this cabin every time we come to Helen!

Hidden Gem

Cozy little cabin tucked away from it all and yet so close to the town of Helen. The best thing was the deck with several seating areas and a creek running through.
