About this property

Bear Hug - Endorsed by Theodore Bear, a.k.a. "Teddy"

After enjoying a good night's sleep in the king size log bed, you will want to make this your home away from home!

Start the day with a cup of coffee on the covered porch while watching the sunrise through the trees. Stay hidden away or venture out to the small town of Helen, located only 6 miles from Bear Hug. Downtown is filled with restaurants, shops and attractions. Spend the day visiting local wineries or take a hike on one of the many trails in the area. Unicoi State Park is located only a mile away from the cabin, making a leisure hike to Anna Ruby Falls very convenient. Numerous wilderness areas and state parks with trails and waterfalls are located within easy driving distance.

Bear Hug's knotty-pine walls are accented with a collection of artfully crafted birdhouses in the living room and kitchen. You will find the kitchen equipped with a stove, oven, dishwasher and refrigerator, as well as both a standard and a Keurig coffee maker. Enjoy cooking a meal at the cabin, knowing you only need bring the groceries. We have the cookware and dinnerware you need stocked in the cabinets and drawers. For your convenience, there is also a washer and dryer. The cozy living room is complete with a wood-burning fireplace and a flat screen television. Curl up and watch a good movie! Or, you might decide to enjoy the peaceful mountain surroundings while relaxing in the hot tub located on the front deck. Don't forget there is a gas grill on the back porch and an outdoor fire pit to enjoy!

This is now a pet-friendly cabin and a one-time per-pet fee will be added if you bring your dog(s). The pet fees that will be added to your reservation are $75 + tax for the first and $25 + tax for each additional.

The perfect stay for me and my (now) fiancé. A warm, cozy cabin that was the perfect setting for a romantic getaway and surprise proposal. Super close to downtown Helen, but still far enough to enjoy the peace and quiet of the north georgia outdoors. Would definitely stay here again and I highly recommend!

Loved our vacation! The host communicated so great with us. It wasn’t far from Helen, GA. The bed was comfortable and the hot tub was amazing to soak in after a long day of exploring Helen and tubing! We will definitely be staying again in the future!

Quiet

Really enjoyed our time. Quiet close to town. It was funny dodging the acorns from the squirrels above on the back deck. It was a little tricky to find at first, but other than that nice place.

Peaceful, quiet, relaxing getaway

We loved our stay at the Bear Hug Cabin! It is woodsy, quiet and peaceful. The birds and trees surround the cabin creating a lovely vibe while enjoying the hot tub and rocking chairs on the front porch. We will definitely stay here again when we return to the area!

Perfect cozy cabin for a get away

My wife and I loved staying at this little cozy cabin. It was perfect for the 2 of us to get away and relax. Relaxing in the hot tub was private and perfect. The only thing I wish that was better is to have better quality pans.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Stayed at Bear Hug Cabin in Sautee Nacoochee. Easy to find. Very secluded, clean, comfortable bed!, nice hot tub(ask to have it warmed up before you arrive), small propane grill that works!, fire pit (I suggest you buy some wood because the wood on the ground around is too big and or rotted), 12 cup coffee maker(filters provided) long with a Keurig. Bring sugar, shampoo, conditioner, soap/body wash. I strongly suggest that you go to Anna Ruby Falls(beautiful) and the town of Helen.

Overall a great stay. Property was clean and in very good condition. Make sure you do not let the door close without having the access code with you or memorized. Luckily a neighboring property was able to assist us in getting the code for re-entry.
