Perfectly situated right on Main Street in the heart of downtown Helen, this one-bedroom cottage at the Upcountry Inn provides a front-row seat to outdoor adventure. Stroll a few blocks to the Chattahoochee River, charming shops and restaurants, and the longest-running Oktoberfest in the United States.

Nora Mill is a standalone cottage on the grounds of the Upcountry Inn, ideally located half a mile from Helen's Oktoberfest each September and October. In this picturesque Bavaria-inspired town, you'll be within walking distance of the river, trails, tubing adventures, great dining and shopping, mini-golf, and so much more. Unicoi State Park and Lake are only two miles north as well, where you can spend the summer paddleboarding, swimming, and fishing.

Through the storybook red door is a living space that's wonderfully modern and comfortable. Begin each morning by preparing breakfast in the well-equipped kitchen, and share stacks of pancakes at the dining room table to prepare for a day full of fun. In the evenings, unwind in central AC, stream movies on the living room's smart TV, and log onto the complimentary WiFi to catch up on email or share a few photos.

Disappointed

We arrived at the property. It was terribly misrepresented from the beginning. The location and condtion of the place was unacceptable. After making an exhausting effort to try for another place, have a refund, or simply move into another space that would be more suitably they were unwilling to assist us at all. I finally just left after being told they could do nothing. We returned home the same day because we were so tired and disappointed. Nevwr again!!

We enjoyed our stay and loved that it was walking distance from town and all the shops and restaurants. I would recommend to anyone with littles, as they enjoyed the bunk beds.
