On The Berg Retreats

  • Summary:

    Dog-Friendly Home w/ High-Speed WiFi, Firepit, & EV Plug,-Great Location



    The Space:

    The charm of Bavaria tucked into the Blue Ridge Mountains awaits in Helen, Georgia! Tiny Helen is just over two square miles in size, but packs in plenty to do for visitors. Your home base offers a lovely, private setting, while also being extremely close to all Helen’s attractions. And, this dog-friendly home means you and your pup can start the day outside, with a walk for him and a cup of coffee in hand for you. Inside, breakfast prep is a breeze in the roomy, well-equipped kitchen, which features stainless steel appliances and plenty of counter space. When it’s time to eat, choose from the adjacent breakfast nook or the dining room around the corner that seats six.



    On the main floor you’ll also find the first of four bedrooms, this one with a queen bed and flatscreen TV. Upstairs are three more bedrooms. The main one features a king-sized bed, flatscreen TV, cozy reading settee, and en suite bathroom. One more bedroom upstairs features a king bed and flatscreen TV, and the other offers a comfy queen.



    After a day of exploring Helen and surrounding state parks, settle into the living room’s six-seater leather sectional or armchair to stream your favorite shows on the flatscreen. Or, step back outside to the fire pit in your front yard, choose your Adirondack chair, and decide what you’ll explore tomorrow.

This property is close to everything on the strip in Helen. It nestled away and we had no issues. The shower and bath are on the 2nd floor but the half bath is convenient on the first floor. We really liked having a gathering spot in the kitchen area but also a separate dining room. The couch is big and comfy & a there’s a nice fridge in the kitchen. Thankful we were able to pull right up to the side door for unloading our vehicles. If we come back, we would definitely stay here again. The 4 bedrooms was plenty of space.

Perfect location

The home in Helen that we stayed in for the weekend was very nice, plenty of rooms and bathrooms for my family. The shops and restaurants were within walking distance. We loved being able to bring our two mini-schnauzers for the weekend!!

Nice, roomy house in a great location

We had tons of room to spread out, and everything we could possibly need, with the exception of coffee filters (which we bought and left for the next person). The rate was great, the location is on a hill directly overlooking downtown Helen, and the property was clean and in good shape.

Great Propery in a great location.

This is a great property to stay at to enjoy Helen and the surrounding area. Property was very clean and provided everything a group of 5 needed for a great vacation. Property was even better than advertised. Close to every thing Helen has to offer. It was cold outside but we were very comfortable during our entire stay. On our next trip to Helen we will definitely book here again.

Best home, best location!

This property is a fantastic large home, with 4 spacious bedrooms and all of the things that you would need for a great stay. The location is also great, with the ability to walk right into town. Love the location. It is on a hill overlooking the town, secluded from view, in the woods, yet a 5 minute walk into the center of Helen. Perfect location, perfect home, great price for location and the amenities provided. When we come back to Helen this will be our home away from home once again!

Perfect Experience

The house was exactly what we wanted! Very accurate listing. House was large, beds were comfortable and we enjoyed the firepit at night. We were walking distance to everything. Restaurants and shoppes were super close and the bars were too, yet far enough that it was quiet. Customer service as very helpful, my father forgot an item inside and called for assistance and was able to retrieve it after hours.

Charming Retreat - Perfect for a Girls' Getaway

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy home in Helen, GA. As a group of four adult women, it was the perfect setting for a relaxing and comfortable weekend getaway. The house was clean, with comfortable furniture and beds that made for a restful stay. Each of us had our own private room, which was a great bonus and gave us the space we needed to unwind and enjoy some peace and quiet. The house was generally well-stocked with essentials, though we did notice it was missing a few basics like salt and pepper — a small detail, but worth mentioning for future guests. We were excited to make smoothies during our stay, especially when we saw a blender available. Unfortunately, it didn’t work, but it wasn’t enough of an issue to contact the owner about. One of the best parts of the house was its location. Tucked away in a private area, we were far from the noise of the town, but still close enough to drive to the charming village of Helen. The area felt peaceful and secluded, which made it easy to relax and enjoy the natural surroundings. Helen itself is a quaint little town with lots of fun activities, unique shops, and great food — definitely worth exploring if you have the chance! Overall, this rental offered a great combination of comfort, privacy, and convenience. We had a lovely time and would recommend it for anyone looking for a peaceful retreat with easy access to all that Helen has to offer.
