About this property

Alpine River Suites #501 - Cozy Riverfront Condo w/Overlooking River in 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. You can also purchase you tickets in advance at coolrivertubing.com. 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. Helen Festhalle is also within walking distance and offers Bingo, live music, Oktoberfest, and other events. Check out the Georgia Mountain Coaster in downtown as well. In Helen there's something for everyone!

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 was spacious, clean, and quiet. The outside deck was very good overlooking the River. The bedroom Matteo is quite dangerous for tall people because it is very easy to bump into. We really enjoyed this stay.

July 4th Weekend

Location is excellent. Living room furniture is a bit dated. Kitchen ware is a bit sparse but okay for our 3-day stay. I don’t think the description mentioned there is a washer and dryer. Always a plus. Overall great stay.

Helen Fest in your future plans?

We stayed in the Alpine River suite 501 which was in a fabulous location. Walking distance from everything in town and about a quater mile from the fest hall. The building is a small facility so very little trafic and very quiet as well. Our unit was very clean and right off of the bedroom, we had access to the private balcony which over looke the Chattahoochie river. Had a wonderful stay other than the fact we were there during Hurricane Helene passing through the region. Was rather exciting and we were fortunate to only experience the river overflowing the banks along with heavy rain and wind! Do walk the trails in the area as well as see the water falls!

A few minor problems

It was very clean. The living room tv didn’t work. The maintenance guys were very prompt & seemed knowledgeable but couldn’t fix it. The basket for the coffee maker was missing. There were no Pans for the oven. Over all the condo was nice.

Check in process was seemless. Excellent communication from management company. The rental was very nice, and was the perfect size for a quick couples get away.Great views of the river and centrally located. Cleanliness was an issue. We founda huge clump of hair in the shower, the carpets were not vacuum, and if they had been, they definitely missed some spots. Also, the kitchen floor had not been mopped. I went to wipe up a splash of water on the kitchen floor, and the paper towels became black and dirty almost immediatey from the floor. Make sure to bring extra toilet paper, at least a box of tissues, hangers, and shampoo and conditioner ( they provide a sample for one person) for the stay.I called management about the hair and carpet, and they responded the next day and took care of it. You will definitely enjoy your time here at the SEC room.

4th of July weekend

Great location for a busy weekend in Helen! From this home base we were able to enjoy the sites, recreation and restaurants, etc without driving the entire weekend. The local fireworks show was mostly visible from the deck overlooking the river as well. Made this a memorable trip!
