The cutest Christmas town in the USA

Helen, Georgia at Christmas is the perfect place for lovers of small towns looking for an idyllic backdrop. 🎄

This mountain town was designed with Bavarian themed architecture, and most of the restaurants, shops and bars have Alpine style and German fare. 🇩🇪

Several Lifetime Channel Christmas movies have been filmed here, and it’s easy to see why! 🎥

Here you can attend a “lighting of the village” event (11/24 with appearances by Mr. and Mrs. Claus! 🎅🏼), or a German style Christkindlmarket (11/25-26 & 12/2-3)full of food, live music, and a craft show by local artisans. 🎨

The main thing to do though is simply stroll the streets, enjoying the lights and decor as well as aesthetically pleasing buildings!

So grab some glühwein from Hofer’s bakery, a giant pretzel from Ludwig’s 🥨 and enjoy! 🍻

There’s also a nearby “Christmas in the Mountains” parade (Cleveland), and a “Victorian Christmas” event at the local Hardman farm site. Plus, the area has loads of wineries and scenic waterfalls- so there’s always something to do! 🍷

We really enjoyed our visit, and made it to nearby Dahlonega too (another very cute small town)! The southern hospitality truly is alive and well here- everyone was super chatty and friendly. 😇
