We booked for a week and left after just 3 days. When we walked inside the cabin it was literally dripping inside. Foul musty mildew smell. We tried getting rid of the dampness with A/C but that was no good. Manager said that she would see what she could do but never heard back from her again. She claims that the owner stayed in the cabin the week before we were there and noticed nothing. That is hard to believe. No refund, no apologies, no communication at all. I would NOT recommend!!!

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!!

I think we are 'one and done' on staying in Helen and next time we'd do a day trip, while staying somewhere else. That said, here are some thoughts on the cabin! Positives: Convenient location - walking distance to the Betty's market (grocery store) and really walking distance to everything. Back deck is awesome. Multi level decks, various seating options, creek.*bring bugspray!* Having 2 bedrooms is a nice setup for families. Laundry room. Kitchen well stocked with coffee pot and filters, pots and pans, utensils. The queen mattresses were comfortable. Quaint decor. Room for improvement - So many cobwebs, in room corners and on lamps.. seems they'd be easy to knock down. Very musty smell even in the cabinets and clinging on the dishes. ( they had air fresheners going in multiple rooms but the strong artificial smell didn't cancel the other smell) Mildew issues in bathroom with visible black spots. Bunk beds are so squeaky they can be heard from the other room. Any amount of rolling over, movement, or even just coughing causes them to start squeaking. (I see a review from 2021 that they've been like that for quite a while.) We dealt with a rodent roaming loudly at night which affected my sleeping for the first couple of nights, but as soon as I reported it they sent out pest control who trapped it immediately. Great communication & responsiveness from the management. Favorite activities were tubing, the mountain coaster, panning at the outpost, & Anna Ruby Falls.

What a great place to stay!! Everything was great, the cabin, outdoor areas. The stream running next to the cabin was perfect! Highly recommended and look forward to coming back!

My family and I truly enjoyed our time at this cabin and will be back!!!!

I highly recommend staying at Bear Creek Cabin! The stream by the cabin made for such a peaceful environment and the cabin itself is very quaint and cute. My family loved it!

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!

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.
