Beautiful Location

The cabin location is beautiful. In the woods and lots of room. However, no instructions on the fireplace and the air conditioners needed cleaning before they would work. Place was clean, lots of dishes and towels and a nice walk to all the Helen Georgia events!

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.

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 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.

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!

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!!

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!!

Little piece of heaven

We went to see the fall leaves and the property was full of leaves all around - we literally could not see the ground. This was a great start to our weekend and my kids literally made piles of leaves and played in them. The road approaching the property is dark and could use some lighting. As far as inside the property goes, it was cozy, clean and comfortable. Since there is only one bathroom, we had to take turns to use it but not a deal breaker. The creek in the back yard was fully covered with leaves so we could not enjoy the water but next time we may try to visit again when the leaves are gone. We plan to visit this place again and plan to stay here longer. A true piece of heaven!! Thanks to the owner.

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!
