UNSERHAUS is a TRUE "RENTAL BY OWNER" - No agencies involved and No hidden or add on charges - What you get is a GREAT PLACE with GREAT SERVICE and GREAT RATES!! We understand that there is CLEAN and there is rental clean, that there is COMFORTABLE and rental adequate, that there is FULLY STOCKED and minimum necessary provided. Having personally experienced those differences, we are committed to providing you with a CLEAN, COMFORTABLE, FULLY STOCKED location for your family vacation. But don't take our word for it - read our reviews! Unlike the slick commercial websites, we don't have the option to "pick and choose" or edit our reviews, so 100% SATISFACTION really means 100% satisfaction!
Helen is located in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Georgia on the Chattahoochee River, just 75 minutes from Atlanta, and is a rare recreation of an alpine village complete with cobblestone alleys and old-world towers. Helen sponsors year-round events including a Trout Tournament, canoeing and rafting, Hot Air Balloon Festival, fireworks, Oktoberfest (Sept. Oct., Nov.), a Christmas lighting spectacle, and both a winter and spring Volksmarch.
Innsbruck Resort is a gated community and is Alpine Helen’s only full facility resort with an 18-Hole Championship golf course, swimming, tennis and clubhouse. The golf course was rated among the Golf Digest’s Best Places to Play 2008/2009. #6 is a hole you will never forget. A 160 yard par 3, but standing on the tee you are 150 feet ABOVE the green! Enjoy the best nature has to offer, breathtaking views and abundant wildlife. Be prepared to see deer, bear, turkey and much more.
This is where you will find “UNSERHAUS" - located on the 12th fairway - and your rental includes DISCOUNTED GOLF FEES for 8 guests per day on the Championship 18-Hole Golf Course. (A daily supply of golf balls can usually be found in the back yard from errant shots off the 12th tee!)
What a unique and awesome home. Just the warm, welcoming feel you get when you enter is such a surprise. The wood floors, beamed ceiling, comfortable furnishings, large bath towels, quality linens, unique and interesting decorations, bedroom TVs, and 2 gas log fireplaces make you feel at home, not in a rental unit. The #1 rule in this home is to bring your bags only - "Unserhaus" is fully equipped for your enjoyment. The 2 full kitchens are so well stocked you will not need a thing, from spices to your first cup of coffee "Unserhaus" provides all of your needs.
For outdoor cooking you will find both a charcoal and a gas barbecue grill. After dinner you can get into the hot tub for relaxation or play a couple of games of Foosball or Darts. If you really need to work, or just want to check your email, WIFI is provided for your convenience.
This house is perfect for both couples and families with children of all ages. Families with small children will find a pack ‘n play, booster chairs, baby gates, children books and much more. Activities are supplied for both children and adults - board games, puzzles, a PlayStation II with games, competition quality Foosball, and electronic dart board. Watch family oriented DVD's and Videos or just relax in the front porch swing, rocking chairs, or on the deck with recent copies of Golf Magazine, Better Homes & Gardens, or Southern Living.
Close to home you can go tubing on the Chattahoochee River, pan for gold, slip and slide at the water park, go horseback riding, canoeing, fishing, or hiking, play tennis, swim at the pool, or enjoy outings to Unicoi State Park, Anna Ruby Falls, Sautee Nachoochee, as well as local museums and wineries. Downtown Helen is just 5 minutes away with all the charm of a Bavarian village and authentic German restaurants. (The train exhibit at Charlemagne's Kingdom is a must see for all ages) Take a short drive to the Cabbage Patch Kids Babyland General Hospital in Cleveland, visit historic Dahlonega, Clarkesville, Brasstown Bald and many other State Parks and Waterfalls.
When you experience "Unserhaus" you will go home with the feeling of love. The home is decorated with warmth, love, and wishes that all who stay there will have a wonderful vacation and will want to come back again and again.
Remember this home has TIER PRICING - The longer you stay the better the price. We really appreciate return customers, so ask for your discount if you have stayed in "Unserhaus" before.
Call early for Holiday and Oktoberfest vacations as they book quickly, sometimes a year in advance.
If you have a large family event - wedding, reunion, vacation, etc - we will help coordinate renting adjacent or nearby properties to accommodate your group in one location.
UNSERHAUS - the perfect answer for your North Georgia Cabin Rental vacation, a vacation you will never forget!

Unserhaus - a True Rental by Owner - Great Place/Great Deals!!
Year Purchased: 2003
Why the Owner Chose Helen
We visited Helen and Innsbruck for a "golfing weekend" with our extended family and immediately fell in love with both. From the championship golf course that never gets boring, to the shops, entertainment, activities, and restaurants in Helen, to the many state parks and hiking trails nearby there is always so much to do. But most of all, there is the beauty, peace, and tranquility of the mountains and mother nature that surround you.
The Unique Benefits at this House
This is a wonderful place to spend time with our grandchildren. The layout of the house is prefect for children of all ages. And, whatever the season, there are always plenty of exciting things to do. Or, you can just kick back, relax, and enjoy watching the deer, bear, wild turkey, and other native critters in their environment.
Owner's Map of Helen
For 35 years our extended family vacationed together staying in numerous rental properties and dreaming of the day we might have our own. Unserhaus (our house) is the culmination of that dream. Recalling those many experiences, we have tried to make Unserhaus the kind of vacation rental we would want to visit, again and again. From the moment you walk in, you will feel the warmth and love that is Unserhaus and know that you have arrived at your home away from home. You will find everything you need for a most pleasant extended vacation and you will also want to come back again and again!

A Great Time Was Had by All

We had an excellent time at Unserhaus. Our extended family stayed there (ages 14 to 76) and there was plenty to keep everyone comfortable and entertained. The house had excellent amenities and was not like many rental homes that have just the bare minimum. The location was excellent, close enough to everything yet far enough to get away from it all. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and plan to return sometime in 2012. Thank you for sharing your house with us.

A wonderful place for our family gatherings in north Georgia.....Helen at Thanksgiving with all the lights and pre for Christmas made a great setting. The house is very comfortable and spacious.....3 granddaughters and family of 8 had a great week. Everything you might need was there.....porches and hot tub .....three spacious bedrooms and two kitchens. Highly recommend Unserhaus

We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend stay at Unserhaus for Oktoberfest. The pictures are exactly how the home looks, and it has everything you need! The hot tub was great, the showers never ran out of hot water, and although there were 9 people in our group, we did not feel the least bit crowded. The property was very clean and very well maintained. We drove down to Helen and attended Oktoberfest, which was a great time. This was my husband and I's 3rd time down there, but this time we brought friends and introduced them to this quaint little German-themed town. Large beers and pretzels were the daytime meal, and we enjoyed watching football games at an outdoor bar/grill called, "Margaritas." We then had dinner at Paul's, which was good; not excellent, but good. The thing that stands out about Helen is the absolute friendliness of everyone in town. The boys ended their night at the Festhall and the Haystack, but the girls went back and enjoyed the hot tub and the quiet. After their night out, the boys found out that there are no available cabs in Helen...so they walked back to the house after their nighttime festivities...I would absolutely not recommend this. It is mostly uphill...and they were all hurting when they got home more than an hour later. :) All in all, great time, good friends. We'll definitely be back next year!

July 2011 Visit

What a totally delightful vacation for the family. We were four adults and two toddlers ( 2 1/2 yr olds). Unserhaus was wonderful and was better than the descriptions. Everything (and I mean everything) was there even for the twins which made our lives so much easier. We had a great time and used the community pool and hot tub. Went 'rafting' which even the toddlers enjoyed although the water level was a little low, it still was fun. Went to the Mountain Fair which was like small town fairs of 'old' and was quite enjoyable and the girls got to go on many of the rides. I wasn't able to use the golf course this time but I look forward to it in the future. The course is beautiful and well maintained and hardly anyone using it on the weekdays. Helen is quaint and not too pricey like some tourist areas. We look forward to returning to Unserhaus in the future.

I rented Unserhaus for a weekend with some friends to celebrate my 40th birthday. We loved it! It's close to downtown Helen while still offering a peaceful mountain retreat. The house is very clean and has one of the best stocked kitchens (utensils, cookware, etc.) I've ever seen in a rental. Definitely worth the price!!

Unserhaus was wonderful! We had a group of 9 girls for a bachelorette get together and we couldn't have asked for a better place! There are 4 showers which made getting ready very easy and plenty of places to stay. The beds had fantastic mattresses and that is coming from a chiropractor. So many times I've rented places and couldn't find small things I needed like a wine bottle opener. This home was equipped with everything! Even had a kitchen in the basement so we were able to make enough coffee for everyone using both coffee makers. The neighborhood swimming pool was easy to access. We all had such a great time and the home was easy access to everywhere in Helen we wanted to go. Even the greeters at front gate were all so friendly. We will definitely be staying here again.

Ladies Weekend Away

Date of Stay: 05/27/11
Review Submitted: 06/02/11
A group of us ladies get together every year and when I saw this listing, photos and amenities, I knew this was the place to be. This was the most wonderful and exciting weekend we've had in a long time. We are repeat visitors from last year except for two new ladies joining us. The only thing you need is food and clothes. I've never seen so many blankets in my life. if there's only one thing that I think is needed here, it would be a firepit so marshmallows and hot dogs could be roasted. The owner is most helpful with anything needed and I would recommend this place for anyone who wants to "get away from it all"!

Helen is just beautiful in the springtime. We enjoyed every aspect of our stay. It was so relaxing sitting on the deck. The deck furniture was so comfortable. The cabin was well stocked. The night lights were appreciated. All couples said it was a good value. Everyone wants to come back soon.

This house in Helen Georgia is a great place to stay, it is very comfortable and clean. It is right on a golf course and close to downtown Helen, which is a very cute bravarian style village. I reccomend staying at this home for vactation.

Immaculate and Beautiful Home

We stayed at Unserhaus Dec. 3rd and 4th and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home is immaculate with everything you need for a great stay. The home is very tastefully decorated and very comfortable. The bed my husband and I slept on was really comfortable. It was a queen and on the main floor. I was pleased with the pots and pans since a lot of places do not have quality sets, but they were really nice here. I was particularly pleased that the main floor only had one step to get inside from the parking area since my husband had just had a partial knee replacement and wasn't ready to climb stairs yet. There was plenty of room for all of us and our 2 grandsons really enjoyed the loft area. We didn't even have to use the pull out sofas. We went to the Helen Christmas parade and the grandchildren loved it. They came back with a sack full of candy. We also drove to Cleveland for the lighted parade and enjoyed it. There were lots of shops to look through in downtown Helen and plenty of restaurants. The children liked sitting at the bar to eat their breakfast and it left enough seating for the adults at the table. We had snow the morning we left which was beautiful but thankfully it didn't cause us any driving problems getting home. We will definitely return if we ever have the opportunity.
