The Helen Barn is the proverbial “mic drop” of the North Georgia cabin world. The barn can seat up to 75 people in many different configurations for company retreats, micro wedding weekends, church retreats, and family reunions.

 

The kitchen is a chef’s dream! For starters, a commercial grade restaurant smoker, 2 kegerators, commercial grade refrigerator/freezer, three ovens, Traeger grill, and a partridge in a pear tree! Well ok, not the partridge…or the pear tree. But we have everything else!

 

The covered patios, arcade games, cornhole, are just the whip cream on the cabin sundae, but the cherry? Are you ready? A legit Tiki bar that looks like you’re sitting in a rustic spot at Margaritaville in the Florida Keys. You could drive in a 150 mile radius and not find anything this unique and fun. Have fun thumbing through the pictures of this very special barndominium in the North Georgia Mountains.

This cabin is included in your Bison Retreat Rental packages and also can be combined with the main lodge to create a 9 bedroom/9 full bath space when the entire retreat is too much for your group.

There may be no better way to communicate what we do than through images. As you browse our site, take a few moments to let your eyes linger here, and see if you can get a feel for what your stay would be like at Bison View Lodge.

  • What is the maximum wedding size?
    Because of our residential septic systems, we have a hard cap at 50 people for overnight accommodations. The total guest list “day of wedding” has a cap of 75, including the wedding party. Most of our weddings are between 35-60 people.
  • What are your packages?
    We strive for simple, transparent pricing. We simply require a 3 night minimum stay, whether you use all of the nights or not. You can download our pricing worksheet below that shows everything we provide.
  • Where do people typically get married on property?
    The ceremony can take place indoors or out, but most of our wedding customers get married outdors. When indoors, the Helen Barn is the spot. If you’re marrying indoors, this space may need to be turned over into a reception space as we do not have a separate wedding chapel. There are several outdoor possibilities. The helipad in the middle of the property has forest, barn, and lodge views depending on seating placement. A covered pavilion/carport next to main lodge that seats up to 75 with views of Mount Yonah and the barn as a backdrop. Another popular location is in front of the lodge with views of Yonah as well.
  • Do you have required vendors?
    We have required food and beverage caterers if you choose to use catering. Our caterers have been vetted for their food, customer service, attention to detail, and their treatment of the lodge. They do a fantastic job for our guests, and they leave the property in amazing condition and know where everything is located.
  • Where do we hold the reception?
    The barn is where our guests hold their reception, either inside or out. It has seating and service for up to 75 people. It features a large kitchen, commercial smoker, and a very cool tiki bar. For those that want an outdoor reception, the area in front of the barn as well as the side porches of the barn make a very scenic spot.
  • Do you provide tables and chairs?
    We provide up to 75 white outdoor ceremony chairs, which you can see here. We also have 8 round 60″ tables and chairs as well as a rectangular table. We provide table linens in black or white. All of this is included in your price.
  • Can we shoot off fireworks on the property?
    Since we are next to the forest, and 3 miles up a gravel road, Bison View Lodge prohibits fireworks being discharged on site in order to lower the risk of fire. However, sparklers may be used with extreme caution.
