Escape to the serene surroundings of Alpine River Escape, where river views and lush greenery await. Enjoy fishing from your private deck or explore nearby waterfalls and mountains like Mount Yonah. This cabin features a cozy fireplace for chilly evenings, a hot tub with magical string lights, a game room with corn hole and shuffleboard, as well as high-speed internet access.
On almost 2 acres with over 230 feet of Chattahoochee riverfront, this spectacular cabin is ideal for your next vacation! You will see gorgeous views of the river from the cathedral and ceiling-to-floor windows throughout this home! Spend mornings sipping coffee and maybe pulling out trout from your river deck, and then grilling it for lunch. Our property has steps leading all the way down to the river and to your private fishing deck.
Take family hikes, exploring the many waterfalls and mountains just minutes away, including Mount Yonah, just next door to our community. When you've had enough adventure, hear the river call to you, with delightful, rushing ripples, to just relax, watch, and listen to one of God's amazing creations from your balcony/sun deck.
Alpine River Escape has so many wonderful features! Maybe after playing a competitive game of corn hole, foosball, or shuffleboard, you will enjoy roasting marshmallows sitting around the fire pit listening to the call of a whippoorwill, or the rustle of a bear! On cool fall & winter evenings, gather with friends and family and pop some popcorn, play board games, or enjoy sipping on some hot chocolate, or wassail as you snuggle by the fireplace.
You may end the day around the hot tub or fire pit with magical string lights, kindling memories with friends, and know that your family has chosen "the most amazing property ever!"
Peace, restoration, and the joy of Chattahoochee River living are found at Alpine River Escape!

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. The kids enjoyed the tree swing and hanging out near the river. The cabin is only about 10mins away from Helen and maybe 20mins away from scenic hikes. We would definitely stay again.
This was a beautiful place...the home, the location (practically secluded

Beautiful and spacious!!
Our whole family loves this cabin! The river is easily accessible—it was fun to watch fisherman and kayaks throughout the day! And ducks..and a river otter! There is so much space and our kids LOVED the game room! Everything was so clean! We looked forward to coming back!

The best river getaway
I rented this cabin for our entire family to visit Helen. We had more than enough room for everyone. We had 9 people. The location is perfect. 10 minutes to Helen and 10 minutes to Cleveland. The cabin was pristine, with a game room to die for, a hot tub to relax in and the river to fish in. There was something for everyone. I would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to visit the area.

Christmas with Siblings
Alpine River Escape is a great cabin for a large family! Plenty of room to be together yet everyone had their own space. The property is beautiful and was so enjoyable. We had a problem with the gas fireplace and Blue Creek Cabins were quick to respond and send someone out (was a fairly minor problem). We had a great time and would recommend Blue Spring Cabin Rental.
The home is beautiful but it's hard to stay inside when the Chattahoochee is in your backyard. We were able to flyfish, soak up the sun and then sit around the fire at night. Saw several deer and a bear while staying there!! Would stay again. and again. and again!!

A fantastic place to stay
We had a great experience there. Everything about the house and grounds were as advertised. We had some limitations about what we could do outside due to weather but we got to use almost everything. We prepared 3 large evening meals while there and found the kitchen to be well stocked with cookware and dishwater and all appliances to work properly. Our group had no complaints at all except that we couldn’t stay longer.

Wonderful Vacation Location
We had a wonderful family vacation at this cabin! It was well stocked with everything we needed, clean, peaceful, and the deer showed up every day all around the property. The babbling brook out back was so beautiful, the family enjoyed some fishing, the river otters and geese were so enjoyable to watch. We made many smores in the fire pit out back and the grandkids loved the outdoor swing and the game room. It felt very safe and was a nice getaway from every day life. It was a short trip yo downtown Helen, where we enjoyed shopping, eating, tubing and exploring.

Amazing Experience
Had an amazing time at Alpine River Escape. The cabin was gorgeous and extremely spacious. It offered every amenity we needed. We cooked in the cabin most nights and I had every kind of cookware I needed to make a meal. The 230 feet of riverfront was incredible and felt amazing to take a dip in on a hot day. We had deer on the property everyday, saw some bugs as big as birds🤣, and even had a visit from a BEAR😳! We filled our days with excursions from exploring downtown Helen to tubing, hiking to waterfalls, white water rafting, horseback riding, and ziplining. I highly also recommend Blue Creek Cabins. We made some amazing memories and I would definitely go back.

Family FUN PACKED Weekend
The Alpine River Escape was a perfect getaway for my family! We took our own raft down the River, fished all weekend, and hiked several beautiful trails within close distance to the cabin. A super quick beautiful drive to Helen Or Cleveland if we needed anything! Our kids 13, 11,8,5, and 3 enjoyed swimming in the river, laying in the hammock, playing with ALL the games, late movie nights, seeing SO many Mama and Baby Deer, and roasting marshmallows by the fire! My favorite was sitting and having my coffee out on the swing and listening to the sound of the country with the creek water as my music😍
The cabin was perfect and came with most everything we needed! We will definitely be coming back!!

Awesome Vacation!!!
Alpine House was perfect for our family of ten, of which 5 were children!. House was very clean, plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. Living spaces were large, so were the tables to fit us all! The kitchen was stocked with everything you need to cook and we did many times. The game room was some of the best we have ever seen, pool table, full size air hockey and foosball tables. The back yard was even more incredible, badminton set, tree swing, corn hole set, fire pit, jacuzzi, and large deck on the river! We spent many peaceful evenings sitting along the river listening to the water and watching the sun set. House was in a wooded neighborhood (lots of deer), and close to the Quaint town of Helen Ga. Would definitely stay here again, the home made our vacation one of our best Spring Breaks thus far! Thank You!!!

Stunning Location and Home
Our group was 4 couples.The home is beautiful inside and out. The river is just steps away. We spent most of our time either in the river, on the river deck or the firepit also by the river. We played in the river all day, everyday. We also did a day tube (brought our on gear) to the 255 bridge (we parked two vehicles there to get us back to the house). We were told it might be a 3 to 4 hour float. It was more like 5.5 hour float with a couple of short pit stops for lunch and swimming. That was a little long for some in our group but it was perfect weather and a very enjoyable float. Everything was perfect. Helen, GA is only 15 minutes away and such a cute town to grab some lunch and support some local businesses shopping the day away. We will definitely be back to Alpin River Escape.

Perfect Weekend Getaway by the Chattahoochee
My husband and I celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary this past weekend. We invited our closest family to stay with us. We had plenty of room for everyone and had the most delightful stay at this beautiful cabin nestled by the Chattahoochee River. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the serene surroundings and the inviting atmosphere of the cabin.
The location couldn't have been more ideal - with the river just steps away, we enjoyed our mornings drinking coffee on the deck and down by the river. The proximity to wineries added an extra layer of enjoyment to our stay, allowing us to explore the local flavors and unwind in the beautiful Georgia countryside.
Inside, the cabin was spacious, with rustic decor that perfectly complemented the natural beauty outside. There were sufficient amenities provided and comfortable bedding that ensured a restful night's sleep.
Overall, our weekend getaway at this cabin was nothing short of magical. Highly recommend to anyone seeking a peaceful retreat in nature's embrace.
Thank you for sharing your slice of paradise with us!
