Alpine River Suites #404 - Cozy condo right on the river in downtown Helen

You are in the heart of all Helen has to offer. In the summer, you can walk to the access location for the Chattahoochee River Tubing. When you get back from tubing, grab a bite at the North Georgia BBQ on your way back to the condo, or choose from one of the many other restaurants nearby.

Sit out on the deck and enjoy the peacefulness as you watch the river flowing by. Grill out on the provided grill while you enjoy a glass of wine from one of our local wineries. There is so much to see and do in Helen. For the kids (and adults), there is the Alpine Coaster and several locations to play mini golf. Enjoy strolling the streets of Helen - whatever the season - and do some shopping or grab a funnel cake.

Helen is a great location for family fun anytime of year. Come & visit during Oktoberfest where you can try German foods & beer, listen to authentic German music, and have the time of your life. If you prefer to enjoy nature and the more serene side of the area, there are some amazing hiking trails around Helen and outstanding waterfalls: Anna Ruby Falls near Unicoi State Park, Duke Creek Falls, or Raven Cliff Falls. There is something for everyone in Helen; make it your next vacation!

Ants 'tween the sheets!
A possible omen for the property may have been finding, or not finding, a total lack of toilet paper in the unit shortly after checking in. After 6:00 (office hours strictly enforced) so no need to call anyone, and a quick trip to Dollar General took care of that. Upon entering the bathroom 2AMish discovered ants circling the bathroom sink. Washed them down the drain. A few hours later and found them again in the sink. I notified the office that day and they apologized, stated the complex had regular pest control, and they would contact them to treat and also leave us some extra spray if needed. We were gone all day, returning after dark, and saw no notice or smell that anyone or anything had been done. Overnight the ants again populated the bathroom sink, and several times I had to drown them. Much more prevalent than the previous night, leaving us to figure they had not been able to get by. We were gone all day on Thursday, returned after dark, and during the night the ants returned in force. At 5:30 the next morning my wife exclaimed "the ants are in the bed." That was the final straw. We packed everything up and left, even though we had rented through Friday night, and our friends who stayed at a different property were also booked through Friday night. So we missed our last day in the North Georgia mountains with our friends. I emailed Cabin Rentals of Helen Friday afternoon, telling them of our disastrous stay. They stated they had handled. Not so!

Great Location & Place
Located in the heart of downtown. Much of everything is in walking distance. Relax on the back porch watching the people tube right from your own covered spot, so relaxing. Bed: Medium firm People up stairs: Can hear when walking around Note: If driving around watch your speed, cops are out in full force. Saw several pulled over.

Loved the open layout. The river right in the back yard with private deck. Central location to many attractions. Communication was excellent Maybe leave a few cleaning items to use if needed. Ex. Broom to sweep the deck after rain and wind leave debris. Etc…overall very comfortable stay. Would recommend. Also loved the patriotic decor throughout the unit.

AWESOME!
We're always a little anxious when we rent a vbro or airbnb because despite the good reviews, we have had some major disappointments. BUT this unit was as near perfect as possible. It had everything we could possibly need. The river right outside the back door was so relaxing. The unit was spotless and the decor was cute and not overwhelming. The location... one block off main street..was so nice. My husband has to use a cane or scooter and we were able to do so without any problems. We definitely will be back... asap!!!

Cleaning/supplies
We really enjoyed our stay. There was some problems with ants coming in the door and traveling to the counter tops and sink, but maintenance did bring some spray. The kitchen only had 1 hand towel and 1 dish rag and there was no broom to use. My wife is used to helping clean. The ceiling fans also needed to be dusted and the bed frame definitely needs to be replaced. Otherwise, a very nice place and walking distance to everything! Thank you.

Almost perfect
The property was spotless and the location was perfect. The river runs right behind the property and was lovely. The view was stunning. We did have an issue with our booking…not their fault. I was assisted over the phone to check into another unit in the same building for the last night of our stay. I don’t feel that I should have to pay another service fee for the 2nd booking but I did anyways of $100. Once we got home I realized my card had been charged an additional $28 fee for late check out. We were past the check out time but we had previously told property mgmt that this would be the case and they gave us permission and all we were doing was switching units. Not leaving. That’s my only complaint.
