Oktoberfest in Helen… without having to sleep in the middle of the madness.

There’s nothing quite like Oktoberfest in Helen — German food, cold b**r, live music, dancing, and enough lederhosen to make you question your life choices. 😂🇩🇪

And then there’s Forte Ridge. 🌲

Just a quick drive from Helen, Forte Ridge gives you the perfect place to enjoy all the Oktoberfest fun and then retreat to the quiet of the mountains.

✨ Spend the day (or evening) in Helen
🍺 Eat, drink & be merry
🎶 Enjoy the music and festivities
🚗 Take the short drive back
🌲 Soak in the mountain views
🔥 Relax around the fire
🛁 Unwind in the hot tub
😴 Sleep somewhere peaceful

Basically: Oktoberfest when you want it. Mountain serenity when you need it.

Make Helen your adventure. Make Forte Ridge your escape. 💚

🚨 THE MOUNTAIN HAS MADE ROOM FOR YOU. 🚨

A few September dates just opened up at Forte Ridge… and honestly, we’re not mad about it. 👀

If you’ve been waiting for a sign to sneak away to the North Georgia mountains, THIS IS IT.

🍂 Cooler mountain air
🏔️ Gorgeous views
🔥 Fire pit nights
♨️ Hot tub under the stars
🎬 Movie nights + arcade battles
🐾 Dog-friendly adventures
☕ Coffee with a mountain view
❤️ And a stay that gives back to conservation

September is one of our favorite times on the mountain — and these newly opened dates won’t stay open for long.

Come disappear into the mountains for a few days.

Hey! Tanner and Elliott Finn here (the CEO and CFO) reporting from Forte Ridge.

We wanted to tell you about our perfect day here in Hiawassee and on the mountain!

Mom says we can’t have morning coffee so we start the day out on the observation deck bird watching (extra helpful if you take the lens caps off).

After pancakes on the special griddle in the kitchen mom helps us get ready for a trip to the lake beach (it has a splash pad too!).

Dad takes us out for lunch over at Pick a Nick basket. They always give us cookies with our meal so obvious five star situation there. We can also take our dog Charlie Bucket.

When we get back on the mountain at Forte Ridge we hike up to the top. Nature walks are the best!

We all pitch in to make dinner (and clean up) in the kitchen.

While we wait for it to get dark we play video games in the arcade room and then make s’mores by the fire.
No wonder Forte Ridge is our favorite place to be!
What do you think of our day?

In just a few weeks, the mountain will start putting on our favorite show of the year. 🍁

Fall is, without a doubt, our favorite—and most beautiful—time of year on the mountain. ❤️

If you’ve been thinking about a fall getaway, consider this your sign. Come slow down, breathe a little deeper, and experience the mountains when they’re at their absolute best. These fall weekends won’t last long!

There’s something special about a girls’ weekend in the mountains. 💕⛰️

Good food. Late-night conversations. A little relaxation. A LOT of laughter. And, according to this five-star review, Forte Ridge was the perfect place to bring it all together. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Some of the best vacation memories aren’t made on a schedule—they happen around the fire.

A crackling campfire, your favorite people, your four-legged best friend, and a sky full of stars.

That’s what evenings at Forte Ridge are all about.

Fall is just around the corner, and our calendar is filling fast. Come make yourself at home.

Just 52 days until fall!

The mountains are about to show off. 🍁

There are still plenty of opportunities to book your autumn getaway at Forte Ridge—but peak leaf season won’t stay available for long.

Who’s ready for sweater weather, hot cocoa, and mountain views?
