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.

Cute little spot in town!

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.

Weekend getaway

This was such a great little cottage! We had our 2 year old son with us and there was plenty of room for all 3 of us. The bathtub is great for kids of course. Everything you could need honestly. From the nice fridge to a smart tv. It was a great location. Very safe. It’s right off the main strip so you can’t hear the passing traffic near as bad. Walking distance to right downtown Helen. It’s like a 5 minute walk to right downtown. Being Right beside Betty’s county store was so helpful for last minute snack and drink runs. Our only complaint/negative ( don’t mean to be petty) but the beds were pretty hard and an adjustment to sleep in for sure. Also the hot water ran out pretty fast. Another problem we had was lights and passing car lights coming through our bedroom curtains. It wasn’t all night. But every once in awhile so it was enough to wake the toddler some throughout the night. But overall It was all super clean and cute and we would definitely stay here again!

This cute cottage was perfect for us. We enjoy a separate living room and it suited our needs. Check in was easy. We were notified when we could get into the house which was around lunch time. We would stay there again.
