The Bear Affair Cabin will romance you with its rustic charm and warmth.
This beautifully decorated, all wood, cozy cabin is nestled on the edge of
The Chattahoochee National Forest, with end of the road privacy, just six minutes from Helen. Close enough to see & do everything, far enough to feel like your miles away.

Bear Affair has everything you need to enjoy the serene outdoors. Each side of this adorable cabin offers a vista of the surrounding forest. Look closely andyou might even see a deer bounding across the drive. Enjoy barbecuing and sampling some of the local favorites on the dining deck aglow in soft amber lights that illuminate the Chattahoochee National Forest.

Relax in your own fully furnished outdoor living room, complete with cushioned rockers and a love seat made for two or unwind in the warm, therapeutic waters of the spacious, private hot tub complete with a panoramic view of the surrounding forest and custom built stacked stone fire pit.

You wont leave behind the comforts of home as you sleep in the grand, king-sized log bed in the upstairs master loft bedroom, sip wine by the fire, or create a gourmet meal in the fully equipped kitchen. Come, relax and enjoy and begin your love affair with The Bear Affair. Bear Affair sleeps two. We've added a downstairs sofa-sleeper for a third party.

Please be advised that you are renting a cabin in the woods in the mountains of North Georgia. Most, but not all, roads are gravel and could have an incline or decline. If this is a concern to you based on your driving experience or vehicle you will be driving, please, have this conversation with our representative for more details on your specific property, prior to making your reservation.

There is a camera mounted on an exterior post of the front porch. It is only viewing the driveway.

    We had a beautiful winter birthday weekend at the Bear Affair !!! Tracy has an amazing, cozy cabin and has thought of everything you could possibly need. The highlight of our trip was watching the snow fall from the wonderful comfy king bed !!! The attention to detail is by far the best !!! It was just amazing and Tracy is a super super host. She made sure we were very comfortable!!! We look forward to many trips at the Bear Affair !!

    The cabin was cute and cozy. Fantastic location and so easy to get to Helen and Unicoi. We were very comfortable there, and enjoyed the fire pit and hot tub.

    The cabin was exactly as advertised, in fact, even better! Everything was clean and well organized. We came to go to Octoberfest in Helen, so location was perfect. Would love to come back but being from Wisconsin it is a bit of a trek.

    A wonderful place to relax and leave the “real world” behind for a while. My wife and I loved the hot tub. The pull out sofa was perfect for curling up to watch a movie. The driveway is long and narrow but we had no issues navigating it in our small SUV. Just follow the advice on the signs about driving slowly. Tracy was responded very quickly to the only question we had during our stay. We would definitely stay here again.

    The cabin was perfect size for us. It was very clean and located in a quiet location. The host was helpful and always available. The cabin is a few minutes from State parks and the town of Helen Ga. I would definitely recommend a stay in the Bear Affair Cabin. We will be back!!

    Loved our stay. It was exactly what we hoped. You felt like you were by yourself in the woods, but it was close to Helen with all the town and area had to offer. Tracy was super responsive. She answered questions in minutes. It had little “nice to haves” like a USB charging hub by the bed. I had to work one day and the internet worked well. I would definitely return.

    This cabin was exactly as it was described. Easy to find and very beautiful! My husband and I really enjoyed our stay here and can't wait to go back! The hot tub was perfect and there were even card games for us to enjoy! Tracy was so nice and very easy to get in touch with! She suggested several things for us to enjoy as we were visiting Helen for our first time.

    We had an amazing time. The cabin exceeded our expectations. The bed was comfortable, the water pressure was great. It was nice to NOT have to get toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap and trash bags. All of those things were stocked in the kitchen as well as coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and oil. I’m sure I forgot something but even the little things were already thought of. The hot tub was great after a day of hiking. Beautiful place. Thank you for sharing it with us.

    Best place to stay for the holidays. They decorated the cabin beautifully. Alot of time and thought was put into this property. The hot tub was preheated for us upon arrival making chilly nights alot of fun. Besides traveling into Helen or the local area, we enjoyed nights staying in with a fire and movie going. This cabin was the perfect get away.

    Not only is this cabin wonderfully maintained with everything you could ever need for a perfect weekend in the woods, the host/owner is next level! We unfortunately experienced hurricane Helene during our stay and woke up to not 1, but 3 trees on top of my vehicle. At 6:30am, when the owner saw me outside looking at the truck, she called to check on us and then proceeded to arrange a rental, tow truck, offered to extend our stay and made sure that we were taken care of with anything we needed. It was very appreciated and wonderful. We cannot wait to come back and enjoy or next weekend at this perfect little cabin in the woods, hopefully storm free!

    The cabin didn't leave much to be desired. It had all the essentials we have at our home. We liked the idea of being away from others but not so far away we couldn't reach anyone. So we enjoyed the cabins surroundings also.

    Just spent the weekend with my wife at the Bear affair. It was wonderful. The cabins is put together very well. Nice outdoor spaces in the hot tub and seating area under the porch and a sunny breakfast table on the uncovered porch. The cabin is about 5 feet from the national forest. There are neighbors but the cabin is situated in such as way as to still be very private.
