Above the Rest| 2BR| Helen| Hot tub & Mountain views

A delightful cabin located looking down onto Alpine Helen, this two-story is ideal for an adventurous weekend getaway or family vacation. Above The Rest is an inviting place to sit back and rock on the porch or enjoy the relaxing hot tub, while also being close to Helen.

The cabin's location is within walking distance from Georgia's first Alpine Coaster where you can glide through the lush mountain forest as fast or as slow as you want to go.

I can’t say enough about the cleanliness of the place Above the rest. The person I had to call and find out a couple of things was outstanding. The food around the little town was amazing we only ate German food all weekend and liked it just because the restaurant is off the beaten path don’t mean it’s not good. Get out and explore it was amazing and we will be back.

The cabin is perfect! Great location with an easy walk to downtown (as long as you can handle the driveway up and down since it is a pretty steep hill). The cabin was very clean and the kitchen had all the amenities. We couldn't have asked for anything more awesome!
Fall leaves in the background and on the lower porch.

The cabin was clean. We didn’t like that kitchen and family room were on separate floors. Lamp lighting would be nice. Hot tub was great!Driveway was an issue extremely steep and difficult to turn around. So steep at driveway entrance that a SUV and a sedan bottomed out. Not ideal for seniors due to number of steps and driveway.

Nice quiet location. However, you cannot walk to nearby shops and restaurants due to the steep hill cabin is on. Also it would be nice if there was a washer/dryer.

Great town. Lovely cabin, but be prepared to walk up and down steep hill & driveway. Recommend having a 4x4 vehicle that doesnt sit low to the ground in order to successfully make it up into the driveway. Other than that, everything was beautiful!!
