About this property
Nora Mill Helen Stay
Summary:
Downtown cottage suite with prime location, smart TV & AC - walk everywhere
The Space:
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.

Great Location
Perfect location for downtown shopping and restaurants!
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.

Awesome Cottage
We loved our stay in this very nice cottage!!!! It was so beautifully decorated and close to Betty’s country store and Main Street shopping and restaurants!!! We felt very safe and comfortable!!!
Very nice and clean property! Perfect for us (2 adults, 2kids). Easy walk to everything in town. Very well decorated & comfortable. Will definitely stay again!
Easy to find and a fantastic place to stay. Perfect for two adults and two children. The kids loved the bunk beds. Easy walk to everything. Loved having Betty's groceries right next door.

Absolutely perfect
It was perfect. Right at the heart of Helen and walking distance to everything. The place was nice and quiet at night and very cozy
The house was clean, good location and convenient walk to groceries and other places to visit in Helen, but at the edge of town so still felt private and quiet. Loved it!

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!
