Very accommodating for my adult children and their spouses. The location to downtown Helen was great - able to use the back roads versus getting on Main Street. The kitchen was well stocked. Very clean. Communication was great.
5.0 / 5.0
The property is in wonderful condition and a beautiful location and provides the whole family with the view of nature that we don't often get to see if the mountains and different animals such as turkeys and squirrels and raccoons and is in the perfect location to the attractions in the State Park we had a wonderful time
4.0 / 5.0
First I'll start with a little bit about us. I am 43 year old mother and we were coming to Helen for a trip for my mother's 70th birthday. So it was myself my mother my 37-year-old sister her 3-year-old daughter and my 17 year old daughter. So a group of five women and being challenged before we rented a Ford Explorer that was all wheel drive because I'm familiar with the gravel roads. With that being said I will start with the pros of the property. Check-in was very easy and the property manager communicated very well with the code to get in. The cabin is absolutely gorgeous with Gorgeous Mountain Top views and tons of entertaining Games books and ping pong table foosball table and air hockey that was amazing for my 3-year-old niece. The hot tub worked wonders for all of us and was definitely a massive bonus. The place was clean for the most part and had all the dishes and towels and things needed without having to go out and buy a bunch of extra stuff. Now the massive con of this property is it is at the absolute peak of the mountain with a very Steep and dangerous Gravel Road that twists and turns and several hidden spots to where we were almost in a head-on collision with someone coming up the mountain when we were going down. It was very scary and definitely not a safe road at all even if you are a good driver. This made it very unpleasant as most of us didn't even want to leave the cabin to risk driving down after dark. Overall still a great place to stay

Cabin was perfect for our girl's weekend. Nice and quiet, plenty of room for everyone. Beds were super comfortable, plenty of hot water and good water pressure. Very clean, had everything we needed and the hot tub was great. Close to Helen and unicoi adventures.

This is such a gem of a cabin and property and I cannot say enough good things about it! The cabin was exactly has pictured, clean and well-stocked with all the essentials in the kitchen. The beds were comfortable and the view from the kitchen window was perfection. The hot tub worked and was screened in and all the games in the game room worked too. The owners were responsive and so helpful. Would 10/10 stay here again in a heartbeat!

Bear Lodge was the perfect place for our short family vacation! Located at the end of the road at the top of the mountain, you couldn't ask for a better environment if you are looking to be away from the "busyness" of everyday life. Plenty to do at the cabin as well as a great location to get to all of the amenities that Helen has to offer (only a 10 minute trip). Highly recommend!

We were so impressed by all the amenities in this cabin! It looks like a little cabin but has everything we needed to enjoy our weekend getaway with friends. Close to Helen so we could enjoy the town. The owner was really nice and answered all my questions—we definitely would love to stay again!

Loved our time here! The cabin was spacious, mattresses were comfortable, and there was an entire game room downstairs. Our favorite part was the kitchen. Ah, the kitchen! For those who enjoy cooking, this was a dream! With all of the counter space and gigantic windows spanning the entire side of the house, we had a beautiful view of Mt. Yonah from every angle as we prepared our Thanksgiving meal.

Beautiful view from a spacious cabin located at the top of a mountain. Clean, well stocked and labeled . Safe and secluded. The town was right out of a postcard and the residents were very friendly. So much to do during the annual Oktoberfest. Recommend the property highly.

This cabin was great. It’s not to far for Helen, also has an amazing view out the back window. The beds are vary comfortable unlike a lot of other places I have stayed. It has an air hockey, foosball and ping-pong table downstairs. Along with a little bar. Jim was quick to answer any questions that came up. I would definitely stay here again.

My husband, daughter, 24 year old grandson, and I spent a great weekend here making memories and laughing A LOT. During the day we explored the surrounding area and the town of Helen. Every evening we had the best time playing air hockey and ping pong in the basement. I discovered we are a very competitive family. We enjoyed the beautiful scenery right outside our windows. The drive up the mountain was not difficult, just follow Jim’s directions. The cabin is well stocked. We even saw one of the “local” bears coming out of the woods and meandering down the driveway. We sat outside around the fire pit the first evening we were there and just relaxed. It was so quiet and peaceful!!

We had a wonderful stay here. The cabin and the property are gorgeous. There were a couple of minor hiccups, but the property owner was very quick to respond and very helpful!
5.0 / 5.0
Really great time and place. Close access to the City of Helen (Little Bavaria) and many easy & hard mountain trailers to water falls and beautiful sites. But even without that, this cabin was great for our family to just hang out and relax and play games, etc.
The ONLY reason I jumped down a star on the On-Line Listing is the information provided before are arrival about the drive up to the cabin was excellent... but some form of that should be posted on the ad. Our vehicle, a Tahoe, had no issue... but a family with an older van or car may have issues getting up the last mile of gravel road.

This cabin has the most beautiful view of the mountains! It has an awesome game room, hot tub, fireplace and fire pit. Close to Helen and Unicoi State Park. Tons to do! My kids ages 5-11 had a great time !!

We were looking for an opportunity to get off the schedule and do absolutely nothing if that is what we decided. One of the decision points with this location was the kitchen. We like to cook, so it was perfect for that (no going up and down the mountain at night for dinner). We admittedly acted like children our first night there by playing games downstairs. It was super peaceful, our own little corner of the mountain with a beautiful view.

Very nicely decorated and comfortable. We felt right at home. The game room was fantastic. Room to spread out. We had rain so could not enjoy the outdoors, but the outdoor firepit looked enticing.
5.0 / 5.0
The location was great, isolated and quiet. Had a fire every night and spent hours in the game room with the kids
The town of Helen is awesome with plenty to do and the food was great! Was our third cabin in the past three years and this by far was the best.
Will definitely come back in the future.
The roads were no problem especially with a truck. Just take your time.

Town of Helen a plus!!!

We absolutely loved this cabin, and our host was awesome. The only major downside was the road to the cabin. I get motion sickness, and one night with thick fog did me in…sick all New Year’s Eve. The stress of encountering another car on the windy, steep trail and having to back out while dark limited our trips to Helen during daylight hours. But I enjoyed the cabin so much we didn’t mind too much: with building a fire, cooking dinner, playing games, and enjoying the hot tub. If you like some adventure, you will love this location.

Well like to have never got up that old road losing track. Got all the way finally after having to back the hill then trying again to get back up. Code would not work nor phone service. So better business and chamber of commerce will be contacted. We ended up having to rent a hotel for our stay never again will I use vrbo nor Jim shepherd cabins . We also told several people in the town what happened to us about no refund and the whole road deal and all. Very disappointed should get a refund due to our circumstances. I would be ashamed to say I even rent a place like that and location as sorry as it is. I’m a Christian widow. God takes good care of me and he will do the same for you all in due time.God bless you!

Best mountain house I have stayed in. But road to house was challenging and dangerous. Had to get speed up to get over hill. Can’t see on coming traffic but the place itself was clean and really nice.

This property was perfect for our Fall Getaway. The cabin was set in a beautiful location with a wonderful view. It was clean and well maintained. When we inquired of the property owner about early check- in he was quick to respond and accommodating. The owner also provided detailed check-in directions to us a few days prior which were very helpful. Overall a great experience and we will definitely will be renting from this location in the future.

Wonderful cabin, beautiful views, lots to do or just relax. My husband and I stayed with another couple and we had a wonderful five-day mountain getaway. This cabin is perfectly appointed with everything you need, the wilderness theming is perfect, and we loved the basement area with ping pong table and air hockey and fooseball, along with a bar area, so many a game was enjoyed! The firepit was a great way to end a relaxing day, and the hot tub was also enjoyed. The little German themed town of Helen is a must-see, so great to be there in October! I know other reviews have mentioned the driveway, but we managed just fine in our little two-wheel drive SUV, just use second gear going up and mind the speed limit, no issues at all. Worth the drive up for the gorgeous view! Owner was very responsive and I would recommend this wonderful cabin to everyone!
5.0 / 5.0
The cabin was a private, peaceful retreat at the top of a mountain with amazing views. Since it wasn't far from Helen, we made several trips to town. The downstairs game room provided us with lots of competitive fun. The kitchen was well stocked and the bed was very comfortable. We appreciated the owners responsiveness and communication with us. Thank you for a wonderful stay at your cabin.
