The resort has potential, but it really needs a major upgrade and better maintenance. While the staff interaction was positive, the cleanliness and overall condition of the units left much to be desired. The kitchen was functional enough for cooking, but amenities like cable TV and Wi-Fi were sorely missed. Unfortunately, the price didn't reflect the quality of the accommodations.

The rooms were in need of serious renovation and maintenance. While they were somewhat clean, the outdated furnishings and lingering smoke smell were definitely off-putting.

I had a good stay overall at this resort. The location is lovely, particularly for hiking and enjoying nature, and the beds were quite comfortable. However, the property feels like it hasn't seen upgrades in years, with no cable or Wi-Fi, which was quite inconvenient. The staff was friendly during our interactions, but I did encounter some issues with maintenance that went unaddressed due to the office being closed on weekends.

My stay at Alpine Crest had its ups and downs. While the location was convenient with easy access to a pathway leading to town, the cleanliness and overall maintenance of the unit left much to be desired. The staff interaction was positive, but the facilities were outdated and in need of significant improvements. Considering the price, I genuinely believe there are better options available nearby.

The facilities are sorely in need of updates. The indoor pool area was basic, lacking some equipment, and several amenities were either closed or not well-maintained.

My stay at Alpine Crest was disappointing due to its overall lack of maintenance and cleanliness, despite its great location near Octoberfest in Helen. The rooms left much to be desired, with dirty floors and not enough dishware. I enjoyed the area but felt the amenities were severely lacking, making it hard to recommend this place for a relaxing getaway.

My stay was a mixed bag with some aspects worth appreciating, while others were quite disappointing. The access route was tricky and potentially dangerous during bad weather, and the units themselves felt aged and in need of a thorough cleaning and maintenance. However, the heating system worked well, and the location allowed for a pleasant walk to town, which I appreciated.

Rooms

The apartment I stayed in was aged and needed a good cleaning. There was grease on the kitchen cabinets, a smelly freezer, and mold in the bathroom tub. I found it lacking in overall cleanliness and comfort.
Service
5.0
During my check-in, it was quick but not very informative, especially with no management available over the holiday weekend. This oversight contributed to the feeling of neglect.
Location
6.0
The resort is situated in a rather scenic area, and there's a muddy path that takes you into town. This path bypassed a longer and more dangerous route along the road, which I appreciated, but the access was unnerving due to the steep incline.

The facilities seemed outdated, including the poorly maintained outdoor pool area. The indoor recreational space was minimal and in need of more attention.
