About this property

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.

The home was clean, spacious, and a perfect location to the events we wanted to visit in Helen. We were able to walk . The home had cooking utensils provided to be able to cook. Even a washer and dryer for the laundry. The home was everything we expected and more . I would rent it again . Only suggestion would be to bring a fan.

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!!

Great location - easy walk to Helen restaurants, tubing and sites but up a hill with a nice view, so you still feel out in nature. Loved that everything was remodeled and new - tons of room for the family.
