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. Whether sightseeing on the North Georgia Mountains, visiting the beautiful Anna Ruby Falls, hiking the Appalachian Trail, or tubing down the Chattahoochee River, this Bavarian town has something for everyone. The area also holds more than 200 specialty and import shops.

This is a pet-friendly cabin and a one-time per-pet fee will be added if you bring your dog(s). The pet fees that will be added to your reservation are $100 + tax for the first and $50 + tax for each additional.
