"A prefect little home away from home. We rented Bear Paw Cabin #7 because it was more secluded than the rest of the cabins. We got that "in the middle of woods" aesthetic while being only a short drive away to the town of Helen. It was like being "off-grid" but with the amenities of being at home (water/electricity, we can't live without it lol). Myself, my husband, and our two teenagers had plenty of room. We really enjoyed our stay, check in/out was super easy. Penny, our host, was...

Tiger

"This cottage was perfect for our stay! Very clean, had everything we needed and the hot tub was a bonus. It is a very nice property, perfect location for the event we were in town for at Tiger Mountain Vineyards - less than a mile away. Downtown Clayton is also very close, and a very charming town! We didn’t bring our pet out will probably do so next stay. Instructions for the house use were very clear and everything was very easy to use. We will definitely be back."

Top Hiawassee Hotel Reviews

Baymont by Wyndham Helen

8/10 Good

"Our stay was good, staff was nice. Room was clean and quiet. Microwave in room looked to be 50 years old. Bathtub was very slick to stand in while showering. Continental breakfast was less than ideal. Hotel was great for what we needed and is what we had expected for the most part."

Hampton Inn Helen

10/10 Excellent

"Can't really say enough nice about the hotel. The staff was awesome, it was clean. Everything but the beds were perfect, and in a hotel.... I can't complain about the beds really. The pillows were even great. I'm so spoiled by my mattress at home, the bar is too high for a hotel to meet. Breakfast was good with lots of options. Will definitely stay here again if we return to Helen."

Quality Inn Downtown Helen

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the location while we were in town for Octoberfest"

Mountain Valley Inn Dillard

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to explore waterfalls"
