Alpine River Suites #402 - Cozy Riverfront Condo Overlooking River Near Downtown

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!

The unit is in a very nice location. Walkable to the entire downtown area. Unit was nice, but it definitely needed a thorough cleaning. The carpet was stained in some areas and there is only one mirror in the entire unit which made it somewhat difficult to get ready. Overall it was a good stay.
Air vents were very dusty
This is how the refrigerator looked upon arrival. It was also sticky.
Again, the place overall was very dusty.
Simple fix if they care to fix it.

Owner cancelled our reservation at the last minute

At 7:00 p.m., the night before when we were to leave, we were contacted and told our reservation had been cancelled because the owner had decided to have painting done. The owner had not notified Vrbo until the last minute. I have walking problems and cannot do stairs and must have a walk in shower. We were offered other places by Vrbo, but I didn’t know if they met my needs. This was no fault of Vrbo. They tried to help but was not successful. I did get a full refund, but if I were the owner, I would have offered a complimentary night.Please share with owner.

Birthday/Anniversary

The place was great. Location was nice along the river and would have been a relaxing place to chill if we weren't on the go, go, go checking out all of the things in the surrounding area. Only issue i took with the place was the blinds. The blinds don't fit appropriately in the kitchen windows or bathroom window; moreso the kitchen. Unit 402, located on the ground floor, this could be a privacy issue for some. Bathroom window should have been installed with frosted glass; owners may want to consider frosted vinyl sheets (privacy) to go over glass at least in the bathroom. All things considered, I would stay here again without any hesitation.

Excellent property!

Our room was wonderful! It was clean, had nice linens, a comfortable bed, and we loved the gas fireplace that covered both the bedroom and living room. The office had great communication. The location is perfect. Close enough for shopping but still off the main street. We will definitely book again!

Great location

I took my son for a short mountain getaway after visiting Atlanta for a Braves game. The apartment was surprisingly large for a 1 bed 1 bath. Had all the amenities to cook and do laundry if desired. The location couldn’t have been better. Just a few steps off of the back porch was the river. Enjoyed having coffee while I sat on the porch. Very short walk to nearly every attraction Helen has to offer. I never took the car anywhere the entire stay. We went during the hot air balloon festival that also coincided with a bike rally so the town was as busy as I have ever seen it but the property was always quiet and never had an issue with noise at night. Perfect all the way around if you don’t have a big family. We ate out for every meal, went tubing, did the mountain coaster, went gem mining, and visited the ballon festival across the river and never had to take the car. The only thing I would do differently next time is bring a fishing rod for the trout.

Keep trying to make excuses for extra charges

Couldn’t get no one on the phone when they supposedly had issues charging my card, take hours to reply. Finally got that taken care of. Can’t contact the same person when calling and after the stay they try to add on extra charges with no notification, make excuses on what the charges are for when I have proof of everything being in perfect condition when we checked out. Other guest couldn’t get in because no one was at the office. Get calls 4-5 days later after the stay with supposed “issues” just a all around problem.
