One of the best attributes of the North Georgia mountains is the diversity of scenes that present the photographer with ample subject material. Whether we seek pastoral beauty, geologic oddities, or cascading rivulets, every mile brings new opportunities for creative experimentation. Modern Helen was conceived in the 1960's as a way of improving business in the area. Since that time, Helen has remained a center for shopping, dining, relaxing, hiking and family-style entertainment. You can spend hour after hour in it's quaint and unique shops. Or you can enjoy a Bavarian style feast of Bratwurst and sauerkraut. A horse-drawn carriage rides through town could top off a great meal. And best of all, it's less than a two hour ride from Atlanta! Helen can be very busy at certain times of the year, particularly during Oktoberfest. Wouldn't it be nice to escape to your private, 24 acre mountain retreat for a relaxing sunset dip in the hot tub? As you watch the stars come out, you'll really appreciate the solitude of the mountains! Looking for North Georgia Mountains or Smoky Mountain cabins and other rentals? Click here!!! In late summer, 2005, Helen suffered serious damage from storms spawned by the deadly hurricane Katrina. Many buildings sustained serious damage, and thousands of trees were lost. Although the buildings will be replaced and repaired in short order, it will be some time before nature can replace the forests that were lost. The damage is still apparent in June 2006, but life in the area has returned to normal! Enjoy the photos of Helen Georgia. We'll be adding more pictures as time allows! |
