Description Description
Welcome to The Chattahoochee River House 1 (formerly Alpine Rushing River 1), situated on the banks of the Chattahoochee River. Relax in the peaceful screened porch with new furniture while overlooking the sights and sounds of the river cascading over the rocks. It is perfectly located for convenient access to everything Downtown Helen offers with the added bonus of being nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains! You may want to take a refreshing dip in the river; go next door to the Helen Festhalle for bingo and dancing; cross the street for miniature golf; head up to Main St. for a horse drawn carriage ride and shopping; take a hike on one of the many trails close by; or take a drive through the beautiful North Georgia Mountains.

This Luxurious Condo was recently updated with New Décor and Furnishings throughout that highlight the River~Mountain Motif. The Chattahoochee River House 1 is the downstairs condo and features Amazing River views throughout from the many Windows and Balconies! The Welcoming Screened Porch opens into the large main living area that includes a well-equipped Kitchen with Granite Counters, Stainless Steel appliances and more, plus plenty of seating around the table in case you decide to eat in instead of sampling the many delicious restaurants around town! There are both a standard drip coffee maker and a Keurig for your convenience. The comfortable Living Room has been updated with 2 New Sofas, New Rug, Custom made Tables from a local craftsman and is the perfect setting to Enjoy a Movie on the TV with Roku streaming. The gas fireplace is temporarily out of service while we wait for ordered parts.

The main bedroom also features a New king bed, a Roku streaming TV, private bath with jacuzzi tub, separate shower, and a double vanity. The gas fireplace is temporarily out of service while we wait for ordered parts. The second bedroom has a queen bed, a Roku streaming TV, and a private bath with jacuzzi tub/shower combo.

Very Nice Stay by the Water
Very nice cabin -cute bear and hiking decor and Christmas decorations still in place is a nice touch - wooden floors and comfy living room furniture make for a cozy setting - full size kitchen table and chairs - fairly quite with opportunity to sit on the screened in porch to enjoy the babbling water passing by.

Wonderful and convenient getaway on the river!
Beautiful and comfortable condo! We only stayed two nights, which wasn’t enough! We loved sitting on the screened-in porch watching the river and enjoying the fall weather.
This place is close/walking distance to Helen restaurants, shops, and the Festhalle. We will be back!

Beautiful Condo on the river
Stay stared a little bad as air conditioning was not cooling. I called the office and they thought it was because it had just been cleaned and probably had not been own but as the night went on it really never cooed down. Luckily with all the fans in the rooms we made it through the night. The next morning I called and Hal came right over. He determined it was frozen up and called the service company. It got fixed around 2 pm. We have stayed in this condo for at least 8-10 years but the traffic in Helen is so bad now we may have to find another place. You can’t get into a restaurant anywhere, anytime. Hal the maintenance guy was wonderful. Oh the shrubbery outside the condo is in dyer need of trimming.

Chattahoochee Riverhouse Weekend to Remember!
I cannot begin to say enough good things about this rental. Very clean. Starter toiletries for everything that you needed. Comfortable beds. Close walking distance to town. The best thing was the view from the covered porch with awesome outdoor furniture. Cannot wait to return!!

Beautiful Creekside Condo Walking Distance Helen's Alpine Village
We (two adults & toddler) thoroughly enjoyed our time together at this beautiful, spacious, peaceful creekside condo perfectly within walking distance of Helen's Alpine Village. (Saving $10 for parking everywhere). The fireplace was warm and cozy, we enjoyed lunch on the porch, and at naptime, the master bedroom was dark enough toddler-approved. We enjoyed opening the doors to the balconies for fresh mountain air into our bedrooms. 1st overnight trip with my toddler and 1st time visiting Helen, GA. The customer service team was extremely helpful when we called and prompt response time from the after hours too. We were hoping the condo would have had a recycling container. We'd highly recommend this gorgeous condo! We loved it!

A great condo and fantastic location
This is the 6th year we have stayed at this condo and it is decorated beautiful. The only thing we couldn’t find was pot holders in the kitchen.

Thanks for your review of Alpine Rushing River 1! We usually leave pot holders with the other usable kitchen items. Thanks for letting us know! And know that we will bring any missing items to you as quickly as possible - just call the office between 9-5:00.

Great weekend in Helen
Nearly perfect. The condo was clean and very nice and modern. Loved the screened in porch but the people directly across from us had dogs on their porch that barked continuously every time we stepped outside so we never got to enjoy it. Otherwise perfect place to stay!

Alpine Rushing River 1 is awesome
This was a phenomenal unit. So clean and well appointed, with River views out every window and the screened porch. Walking distance to everything in Alpine Helen. Two en suite baths plus a powder room were a luxury. I also love renting through Georgia Mountain Rentals, who are so responsive and helpful. You avoid some common fees by renting directly from you and they then offer discounts toward your next return. They have earned my loyalty!

We had a REALLY great stay. The ONLY thing I would change is adding a chair or two to the living area to accommodate more people by the fireplace and TV. The pictures showed a chair, but it is no longer there. A comfy chair or two would be great.

Helen Ga,
Georgia mtn rentals was a great company to work with. They found what we were needing/wanting. Very helpful. Our only complaint was we had to leave a day early because of a death in family of close relationship and the owner, not GA mtn rental wouldn't refund the last nights rent. I can understand to certain extent but we it was an emergency not but choice.

Relaxing on the river
Property is right on the river so relaxing by the water was great. The property is very well kept inside and outside. This was my 10th stay and will be coming back again. It is also close to the town center and walking distance to a lot of restaurants.

Nice place but not the best value
Great location and very clean. Hot water ran short, internet/TV did not work and the upstairs guest tried to be quite but very step echoed down stairs. Washing machine running at 6am is not the best thing to wakeup to.

Great experience
A great experience. Very comfortable house, impecable sense for decoration, inmejorable location ( in the middle of the town and the living room and one of the bedrooms with river view). plenty outdoor space to play with kids. Heathers and fireplace work in a great condition. Full laundry and equipped kitchen. We experienced an issue with the Internet connection and landlord and management company resolved the issue ASAP and excused with us with a little present (beautiful detail). sincerely, I recommend this property, the landlord and the vacation rental company. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

The condo was so close to the river that you could hear the rushing water. Well furnished and plenty of room to move around. Within walking distance of the fest hall and downtown. No need to drive anywhere. We liked it so much that we booked it again for this summer.
