About this property

Sitting on 20 beautiful acres, totally secluded, Just 6 miles from Helen, GA!

Our Hideaway offers 20 acres of privacy, mountain views, a small refreshing stream you can hike to, all bordering National Forest Land!

This secluded 3 Bedroom, 2 Bath authentic log cabin is nestled on a large tract of pristine mountain wilderness surrounded by Mt. Yonah and the National Forest. Hike to a peaceful mountain stream bordering the property or walk into the National Forest on the northern border in this rustic park like setting.

Deer, Wild Turkey, Black Bear and the nocturnal sounds of Owl are common at this ridge line retreat. At about 2,000 ft elevation this property has it all, mountain breezes, perennial mountain creek and a year round view of Mt. Yonah. This cabin has old world craftsmanship with all of the modern conveniences you would expect. Large floor to ceiling stone fireplace in the main living area to warm those cool mountain nights. The charm of a wood burning stove in the master suite to cut the early morning chill and warm that first pot of coffee.

Scenic views from 3 covered porches, a large grilling area and a large screened in pavilion. Camp style natural stone fire ring/camp area add to the feeling of a Ranger's cabin hidden away on a remote wildlife recreation area.

Only 6 miles from tubing and fishing in Alpine Helen, Georgia. Our Hideaway is within minutes of The Appalachian Trail, waterfall treks, kayaking, canoeing, world class white water rafting and minutes from numerous North Georgia wineries! Talk about a hiking mecca, get your boots ready! After your adventures there is plenty of shopping and dining in downtown Helen. Grab some steaks for the grill from Betty's Country Store and deserts from Hofers German Bakery ! After exploring Helen, make your way back to The Hideaway to relax, refuel and plan your next day's adventure!

What an amazing place to spend the week!! The cabin is beautiful and had everything that we could possibly want. It was a great place for the family to get together and spend some quality time catching up . Lots of places to hang out outside and just enjoy being in the forest! The host is wonderful and very accommodating and was available if we had any questions. Check in was super easy. It's very close to Helen and some great hiking spots. I would highly recommend staying at this cabin.

Fun family time

This cabin was the perfect location for our family getaway. Minutes from Helen, GA, and other tourist sites, but tucked away on a mountain top with beautiful scenery, deer wandering by, and woods to explore. Check-in was easy, the cabin was well stocked and met all of our expectations.

Al little fishing and a lot of relation

If you want to get away, have privacy and just chill this cabin is for you. The property owner was very communicative, the property was peaceful and it was only a few miles from Helen and the surrounding area. We got in a little trout fishing and a lot of eating, visiting wineries in the area and a lot of eating! I definitely recommend this property. The cabin was clean and what you expect a cabin to be like.

We booked this cabin for a multi-generational family gathering for a wedding weekend. The cabin is very clean and well stocked. I appreciated having an ice maker and dishwasher. There is also a washer and dryer available. The cabin has two porches with chairs and a swing, a screened room with a grill and a firepit with chairs. Unfortunately, we were so busy we didn't get to enjoy all the amenities such as the fireplace, grill or firepit, but would love to come back and enjoy a relaxing time. I appreciated there were games so I was able to play a game with my granddaughter. We enjoyed a couple of hours walking the property and sitting around the firepit. The sheets were very comfortable. I greatly appreciated that. My elderly parents were able to sleep downstairs, so they didn't have to climb the stairs. That was very important. The property is a secluded so you are not bothered by other people or noises. I highly recommend this cabin. The owner is quick to respond with any questions or concerns.

Exceptional log cabin with all the amenities. Great location high up in the north Georgia mountains. Close to the alpine village of Helen, GA with great shopping and restaurants. If you like peace and quiet but desire access to amazing outdoor activities then this is the rental for you.

Jason & I love the great outdoors! Any chance we can get outside, we are there! We fell in LOVE with the sweet town of Helen!

Why they chose this property

My husband & I have traveled to Helen, GA for many years and rented cabins for various getaways! We loved the town of Helen, the quaintness of Sautee, and the people in the area so much, we decided to purchase a vacation home for ourselves and to share with others.

What makes this property unique

20 Acres! A True Getaway! Just 4 miles to Helen, GA. Close to it all, but seems like a world away up @ The Hideaway! At almost 2,000 ft elevation, prepare for a great getaway!
