About
After enjoying a good night's sleep in the king size log bed, you will want to make this your home away from home! Start the day with a cup of coffee on the covered porch while watching the sunrise through the trees. Stay hidden away or venture out to the small town of Helen, located only 6 miles from Bear Hug. Downtown is filled with restaurants, shops and attractions. Spend the day visiting local wineries or take a hike on one of the many trails in the area. Unicoi State Park is located only a mile away from the cabin, making a leisure hike to Anna Ruby Falls very convenient. Numerous wilderness areas and state parks with trails and waterfalls are located within easy driving distance.
Bear Hug's knotty-pine walls are accented with a collection of artfully crafted birdhouses in the living room and kitchen. You will find the kitchen equipped with a stove, oven and refrigerator, as well as both a standard and a Keurig coffee maker. Enjoy cooking a meal at the cabin, knowing you only need bring the groceries. We have the cookware and dinnerware you need stocked in the cabinets and drawers. For your convenience, there is also a washer and dryer. The cozy living room is complete with a wood-burning fireplace and a flat screen television. Curl up and watch a good movie! Or, you might decide to enjoy the peaceful mountain surroundings while relaxing in the hot tub located on the front deck. Don't forget there is a gas grill on the back porch and an outdoor fire pit to enjoy!
Please know that pets are not allowed at Bear Hug.

This was our 2nd time staying at Bear Hug and it was nothing short of amazing. The staff with Georgia Mountain Rentals are absolutely incredible. This place has become our home away from home and we will be returning later this year!

We loved it!!!
Richard D., Taylorsville, GA United States
It was cozy and romantic. The only advice is fill in the pot holes and widen the dirt roads. Our stay was perfect though and Samantha was awesome!

Adorable cabin
The perfect getaway
Reno S., Crawfordville, FL Unknown
Bear hug was amazing, every aspect of it was perfect for our New Years getaway. It seems small in pictures but it’s interior layout and design makes it feel huge inside, beautiful wood all throughout the cabin, every piece of silverware and cookware you could need and even a grill outside, 2 Smart TVs with all the capabilities to watch anything but we just died to stay out and enough to sights and local activities as should you, the bed and pillows felt like a dream, nice and warm sheets and covers 2 nights of our stay we got some rain and the sound of it hitting on the roof is so comforting to me, talk about cozy. The hotub was awesome, it is tucked back of the main roads and tho near other cabins the way they are laid out and the trees around it gives plenty enough seclusion, a 10/10 for our experience and I would recommend it to anyone wanting a nice mountain get away, very affordable. We definitely plan on coming back!

Wonderful Cabin
Alonso P., Atlanta, GA United States
Our trip was amazing! We did a few good hikes and loved the peace and solitude of the cabin, as well as the cabin itself. It is beautiful and cozy and had everything we needed.
Excellent vacation

Excellent place to spend fews days away!

Enjoyable. The cabin was spotless when we arrived. Only complaint we had was no step to get in hot tub. That was taken care of immediately. Will definitely return!
Romantic getaway
Victoria S., North Augusta, SC United States
My Husband and I wanted a romantic getaway near Helen. We came upon this cabin by chance and we were blown away. The booking process was fast and simple. The communication from the property management was great. The cabin itself was perfect. It was clean and cozy and had everything we could have asked for. The hot tub was amazing! We used both the hot tub and the wood burning fire place multiple times a day over our 2 night stay, We were talking about going back before we ever even left. The only recommendation for improvement I would have is that there be a (undivided) loveseat or couch in the living room. The double recliner with a center console made it difficult to cuddle in front of the fire ;) Overall we were extremely satisfied and impressed. We will definitely be returning customers!
Great vacacation spot
Amy H., Bonifay, FL United States
Bear Hug was a very comfortable cabin. My husband and I enjoyed our stay, it was close to Helen and to the state park. Bear Hug had everything we needed to make our stay great. Can’t wait to go again.
Great stay
Tom J., Coushatta, LA United States
My wife and I spent three wonderful nights at Bear Hug. Everything was ready when we arrived...hot tub was going and the cabin was super clean. The only distraction was the occasional nut dropping from the roof on the metal roof. It was loud, but only happened occasionally during the night. The bathroom sink drains slowly but other than that everything worked great. Overall, a great experience!

Bear Hug Review
Steve H., Murfreesboro, TN United States
We really liked our cabin, it was clean and had everything we needed for our stay and location was great as well. We had very small hiccup with a tv remote but it was taken care of right away. My wife and I would highly recommend Georgia Mountain Rentals for your stay in North Georgia.

A wonderful time, professional staff and beautiful cabin!
Kathleen D., Foley, AL United States
We had a wonderful and relaxing stay. The cabin was private and clean. We were able to stay another night due to a hurricane in our area and the staff was very helpful and nice doing this for us. Close to a lot to do, affordable and beautiful.

The Bear Hug cabin was authentic, clean and quiet, the management was responsive and kind, the environment outside was beautiful and we did get to see two bears! There are many hiking and shopping opportunities around, as well as waterfalls and lakes. We hope to return again and again.

Bear Hug cottage
Rand E., Clover, SC United States
The cabin was very nice and well appointed. All the furnishings were high quality, and the hot tub was great. I was on a motorcycle trip so I was disappointed that the firewood wasn't supplied. The only grocery store in town was very overpriced but a 15 to 20 minute ride to the next town took care of that. Overall it was a great stay at a reasonable price.
Outstanding Cabin
Alonso P., Atlanta, GA United States
The cabin was absolutely wonderful, private, secluded, quiet, and had all the amenities we needed. We had a great stay and did hiking, swimming, and ate good food.

Incredible experience
Stephanie A., Ocoee, FL United States
My husband and I stayed here for a little 2nd honeymoon. This cabin was amazing! The staff was very helpful and the cabin was so cute and clean. You can’t beat the location. It’s just far enough away from the city so that you can get a mountain feel, but close enough to get to Helen easily. Beautiful little town! The cabin look exactly like the pictures.

First time in Helen GA
Rock S., Rainsville, AL United States
We stayed in Bear Hug cabin and it was wonderful. The cabin was very clean and warm. Nice layout inside and nice porch on the front. Loved the ramp up to the porch and great security light as your parked your car. While I know that it is difficult to maintain roads where there is a lot of cabins in the woods, the path up to the cabin was in bad shape. Some very deep holes to avoid. Other than that, we loved our stay in Bear Hug. Also, we loved Helen GA and without a doubt shall return and hopefully can stay in Bear Hug once more!

Loved Our Stay At Bear Hug
Lisa W., Douglas, GA United States
Everything from the booking experience to check out was awesome. We try to go to Helen at least once a year, this year it has been twice. It is our Happy place. That being said, we have stayed with several different rental companies. Hands down Georgia Mountain Rentals has been the best!!! The staff was extremely helpful at booking and through out the stay. Bear Hug is this awesome little cabin that is perfect for a couple. Pictures absolutely does not do it justice. Although there are a few cabins around, this was not an issue, we still had the privacy we desired. We usually try to get a cabin with a view, this is not that, but something to be said for the quiet of the woods and the rain in the trees that is very relaxing. That is what we needed most out of this visit. I typically am not one to give 5 star reviews, I feel most things can use improvement, but based on past experiences this company and cabin deserve it!

Our Stay at Bear Hug
Larry B., Cocoa, FL Unknown
We arrived to find our cabin in absolutely EXCELLENT condition. The cabin was locate in a beautiful wooded area. It was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. I thought bugs would be an issue, however, except for one night after a period of rain, there was none. The bed was very comfortable, all the appliances were in excellent condition, the bathroom was very clean, all the TV’s worked fine, internet service was excellent, the BBQ grill was used and found clean and full of propane and the living room furniture was quite comfortable. We could not have asked for a more enjoyable stay. Johna was a great host and answered all our questions.

Bear Hug Cabin was quiet, clean, comfortable and very cozy. It was a very short drive in to Helen, Georgia where there was great dining and entertainment. We also visited several of the beautiful waterfalls in and around Helen. We enjoyed our stay at Bear Hug and will be renting again from Georgia Mountain Rentals.

Lovely cabin just far enough out of town. Easy to get too. Had everything we needed. Beautiful place to relax.
Great getaway
John P., Reidsville, GA United States
We enjoyed our stay in the Bear Hug cabin. The cabin was neat and clean and everything worked. Easy access to the town I guess if I had a negative it would be the proximity of this cabin to the others around it. But it wasn't a game changer.
Cozy cabin for a romantic getaway

We had an amazing time and will definitely be back to this particular cabin soon
Great location
Lois H., Vassar, MI United States
This cabin was a perfect location for our visit to Helen and the surrounding area. Even tho there were other cabins, they were not extremely close and it was very private and quiet. We found the cabin to be just as described, very comfortable and clean. We would definitely like to come back to the area and to this cabin

Kathleen M., CLEARWATER, FL United States
We spent three days in November at Bear Hug. The cabin was located within 5 miles of Helen but was quietly tucked away in the woods providing peace and quiet. The property was clean and well-maintained. We were pleasantly surprise at the size of the cabin as it was larger than we anticipated from the photographs. The staff answered all our questions and was very helpful with all aspects of our vacation. We most certainly would stay at Bear Hug again! We absolutely loved our experience.

We really enjoyed our stay at Bear Hug. The cabin was close enough to Helen but far enough away to enjoy the wooded scenery and the peaceful atmosphere. We were pleasantly surprised with the cabins size and would most certainly stay here again. Just loved everything!

Recent Guest, Christiana, TN United States
The cabin was lovely, comfortable and in a good location. Our issue was the limited amount of towels, 1 dish towel, no condiments and no coffee. Also, no rug at the back door to wipe your feet. Acorns fell on the roof constantly so it sounds like the cabin is under attack. There were no rules near the hot tub as the information claims.
Wonderful weekend getaway!!

A good place to stay. The location is close enough to Helen that it’s not burdensome going to and coming from town, but far enough away to give an intimate feel. Pictures don’t do this place justice. Would recommend to anyone

This was an amazing little cabin. Owners were so kind and helpful. Even called on Saturday morning just to make we had everything we needed.
Clean, comfortable, great all around!
Recent Guest, Lilburn, GA United States
This cabin was one of the most nicely appointed cabins we have stayed in. Everything was in excellent condition and very clean. In fact, the only negatives were very minor things: we could have used a cutting board in the kitchen, and it was a little tricky to spot the turn-off to the cabin on the highway. Otherwise, it was 5-stars across the board if you are looking for a quiet, comfortable place in the woods. (It is also a little bigger than it looks in the picture.) Quite close to Helen (less than 10 minutes).
Great Weekend Get Away
Berry S., Hephzibah, GA United States
We needed a couple of days away from phones email and work. This cabin was just what the doctor ordered. Spent the whole weekend at the cabin with one trip to eat dinner out at Mully's Grill. Not quite as secluded as some of the other cabins we have rented but secluded enough. All in all a very relaxing and romantic weekend. Mission accomplished.

We came here on our honeymoon and stayed in Bear Hug. It was very clean, quiet,and peaceful. We couldn't have asked for the staff to treat us any better. We will surely be back for another visit in the near future.

Great cozy cabin right outside of Helen, GA. Perfect for a couple. It has wifi and cable and was very clean and homely.
We had a great time at Bear Hug and owners were very nice and quick to respond!
