We lived in the Atlanta area in the late '80s. My mom said, "We won't alway live in Georga, so we are going to do everything we can while we are here." So we did. We went to Helen 5 or so time in 3 yeas. I am so glad she did that! To this day, I travel to all kinds of places, large and small. I's now 11 hours away, but I can't wait to take my wife and kids to Helen some day. I bet it has changed since 1989.
As a local we do appreciate the tourist that come from all over , however i would like to say to them remember to polite and respectful to those of us that libe here
I am originally from Germany & my mother who is 76 just lost her husband in 2022 .she just cried missing Germany the other night, I want to say Thank you, I'm going to start by bringing her to Helen Georgia, I think she will Love it, & it help her feel closer to Bavaria & Stuttgart without ever having to board a plane. God bless you🙏🏻✝️
Wildwood is the best shop in Helen. We love the area, and the history. We live outside of Atlanta on the south side. So we really enjoy the peace and quiet in the mountains ❤
I don’t normally comment, but i wanted to tell you thank you for making this video. I liked the history as well as the comprehensive review of local attractions!
beware the tubing!!when water was too low to float they will not tell you and take your money while you drag your float down slippery rocks till your exhausted.and was nearly snake bit!!
I would say around Sept/Oct when it's not too hot. The summer is great there but it's obviously really hot for walking around. Christians is super fun too.
I live in Georgia for so many years and only recently understood this place. Looks like I need to find a time to go over there and check it out

Question!!!! Do they allow dogs everywhere? Or just some places? Thanks 😊
From our experience it was easy to take our dog most places. She’s little though so that could make a difference
Can you bring a gaming console inside hotels and hook them up?
I have seen some where you can but it’s hit or miss. Most have at least one HDMI
What is best month to go there
I would say around Sept/Oct when it's not too hot. The summer is great there but it's obviously really hot for walking around. Christians is super fun too.
If you say “Appalayshin” again, I’ll throw an “Apple atcha”😅
My mom had a cousin named Helen. She unfortunately died from cancer which was just heartbreaking
Sorry to hear that!
I live in helen I don't recommend living In helen just visit
That's interesting. I always wondered what it would be like to live in one of these tourist towns
Is something wrong ?
I live on the other side of this mountain and this town just sucks lol 😂 other than fishing 🎣🤷🏼♂️ it’s over priced and really not worth !!!
