It has private access to the main floor bathroom. You also have a 43 Smart TV, chair, closet, ceiling fan and dresser for your needs. New cabin themed bedding. And the laundry closet and steps upstairs are on your left. Heading into the cabin the main level bathroom has an entrance from the hallway and the Queen bedroom.

The kitchen is on your left. Stocked with all the amenities you want, coffee maker, Keurig machine, electric teapot, blender, all cooking supplies, plenty of glasses, dishes etc. Little extras like spices, plastic wrap, foil etc. are stocked in this kitchen. (There is an owner's locked cabinet in the kitchen) Beautiful new lighting and new appliances compliment this kitchen. Counter stools are provided for guests who want to be where all the action is. Filtered water is available on the Fridge. Views of the river and the open floor concept in the living/dining/kitchen space will have you re-booking this cabin.

The dining area seats 4 comfortably at the table and 4 stools at the counter. And overlooks the back porch. The living room has multiple seating options. Including a 2 person recliner. Everyone has a view of the 58 screen Smart TV mounted above the Fireplace. Bring your passwords for your favorite streaming apps like Netflix etc. There is no cable or satellite TV connection. (There is a locked owner/cleaning closet in this room). For your convenience the end table next to the sofa has 2 USB ports in the flip top. Pull out drawer has 2 cup holders and remote holder. Again it's all about the river views from the living room. New furniture and a plush sofa throw will keep you cozy and relaxed. Take a nap, you're on vacation!

There are window screens in every room. Take advantage of the breezes and beautiful weather during your stay.

Heading out the back sliding glass door the peaceful sound of the river will be the first thing you notice. Make plans to enjoy the hot tub and spend a meal or two out on the porch. The gas grill is located downstairs off the carport for safety reasons.

Going back into the cabin, take the steps upstairs to relax in the spacious Primary suite. It's the entire upstairs of the cabin! A unique feature of this room is the loft overlook. You can view the goings on downstairs, the river or close the sliding barn doors for privacy. Plenty of room in the closet.

The adjacent bathroom has a double vanity, hair dryer, plenty of room. There is no access for guests to the attic. The jacuzzi tub and separate shower unit finish off this room. And you can see the river from the window!
This property is a little bit wider than the actual house footprint. Follow the path around the side of the downstairs porch if you want to view the river up close. Respect other properties and stay on our property only.
The Fire Pit area is at the bottom of the steps. Charcoal grill set up here too!
We hope you enjoy Alpine River Haus as much as we do!
All linens, sofa throws, quilts, towels, etc. are washed after each booking.
Please note this home is up on columns. You will have to walk up a flight of steps to enter the cabin. This is not a ground level home.

Guest access
Guests can park in the driveway or under the carport. There is a locked utility room on the carport for the owners use. On the side of the door is a light switch that turns on the lights for the carport, steps, and front upstairs porch. You can also turn it on/off in the house at the front hallway. Walk to wherever you want in Helen, the streets are lit at night too. You are about a 15-20 minute walk from the heart of Main St. Many restaurants and shops are closer along the river side of town. Beautiful walk to the Hardman Trail around the corner. The street dead ends up past our cabin. So not a lot of traffic.

    We went to Helen for Octoberfest. The hosts were incredibly nice and helpful, they were answering questions from the moment we booked the house. The house is absolutely perfect! It is a short 15/20 minute from the heart of Hellen. The view from the porch and hot tub were spectacular! The house had every kitchen amenity you could need, even though we didn't use much of it. We loved the fireplace, it kept the whole house warm, as it was colder than we expected it to be during our visit. We will book at this house again for our next visit!

    The description was perfect! The house has amazing access to the river. Very clean and comfy to hang out in. A little walk to downtown, we drove each time. Wonderful information about Helen included in our stay. We looked at the brochures and chose restaurants you recommend! Food was great! We absolutely will be booking again soon!

    Extremely clean and well appointed. Perfect for 2 couples. We enjoyed Helen but even more we loved listening to the rushing waters, and relaxing on the back porch. Communication with our host went above and beyond our expectations.

    Every detail on the hooch is well thought out. From the indoor and outdoor paint (which appears to be new) to the comfortable, high quality,comfortable furniture and every adorment in the home. The hot tub is well taken care of and the kitchen is excellent with high quality appliances and all the utensils you need to cook good meals. It is very comfortable on the upper and lower decks to just relax and listen/watch to the river flow by. The area is also quiet and out of the way of most noise in Helen.Going into town is easy to drive and really was easy for me to walk to as well (about 1 mile) and is a beautiful walk. Helen speaks for itself with October fest going on it was happening if you want lots of action and then a nice retreat this is the perfect spot.Being able to have our little, old dog there was a huge bonus and we're so grateful, he was chilling on his pillow just watching the river while we read books on the deck. The owner is very engaging and super helpful with any questions as she is knowledgeable about the area. There is a thoughtful book of knowledge on the counter when you arrive and a complimentary bottle of local wine which is a great touch.I loved opening the back door and instantly hearing the sound of the river come in to the house, it was very relaxing and we we would liked to have stayed longer than the 4 nights.We will definitely return, and I highly recommend 49 Misty weg!In 30 years of travel this is in our top 5.

    Home away from home! The property is even better in person! Very nice, clean, up to date, well maintained home. Was stocked with everything you need and more. Comfy beds, nice hot tub, hosts was very nice and quick to respond, also helpful with any questions. My son loved playing in the river and my dog loved laying on the porch listening to the river. It was very relaxing and quiet. Close to town. All of this added up to the best trip, I honestly have no complaints and was impressed. Would definitely recommend and I hope to return myself one day!

    My family of three (2 adults, 1 teenager) spent 8 nights at Alpine River Haus. It was perfect! The home is spotless and well-stocked with everything we needed. There are 2 decks overlooking the river. We sat on the top deck each morning drinking our coffee - a perfect way to start the day. The location is ideal to access downtown and local hiking trails and waterfalls - within about 15 minutes of Unicoi State Park, Dukes Creek Falls, and Smithgall Woods. Jennifer, our host, ensured that we had everything we needed and was available to answer questions. The hot tub on the top deck was a nice way to finish up the day post-hiking. All items in the home were easy to use (and Jennifer provided excellent instructions). The river in back of the house is shallow and good for splashing around; it gets deeper a little farther down for better swimming. I highly recommend Alpine River Haus. Me and my family will definitely return.

    We really enjoyed our stay at this cabin for a week! Right on the river and close enough to walk into town. The cabin is so clean and comfy! So many extras provided that a lot of rentals lack. Jennifer is a great host with good communication. We really enjoyed sitting on the porch upstairs with a beautiful and peaceful river view. We also enjoyed sitting in the river on the hot afternoons! Lots of great restaurants nearby. Our pup did great here too!

    Could not ask for a better place to stay. The host, Jennifer, is attentive and kind and follows through on all the details. Close to all the activities in downtown Helen, but on a quiet part of the river to enjoy the calm of the rushing water. We will definitely being staying here again when we visit Helen.

Fully stocked kitchen and bathrooms, everything we always bring (paper towels, zip-lock bags, foil, cleaning supplies- just in case, etc.) was already there!

    My husband and I were looking for a quiet location while visiting Helen, Ga. This home, with many upscale features, was the perfect fit for us. The place was beautifully furnished. We enjoyed watching wildlife off the back porch, overlooking the river. The hot tub was a great way to end each day of hiking the many trails in the mountains. The owner, Jennifer, made us feel very welcomed. Although we had no issues, we felt we could have reached out to her at any time and know she was there to resolve a problem. We would highly recommend this place to friends and family, and would return here ourselves.

    My husband and I and our senior pup came to Helen with no predetermined expectations . We arrived with two extra family members we last minute added. Jennifer was amazing, she said that was totally fine. Then we had so much fun my husband and I and our pup decided to stay a few more days if that was approved. It was and we enjoyed every second the home is just lovely, well stocked even a complementary bottle of wine. Our last morning we saw a huge Momma Bear and 4 baby cubs cross the river behind the house. It was a perfect ending to a very wonderful vacation. Thank you so much!!

    The cabin had the sweetest location on the Chatahoochee where it was low and you could walk in. Upstairs had a beautiful porch where you sit and listen to the river pass.
