The Spielen Haus
Steps from downtown Helen, Spielen Haus sleeps 12 across two king suites and a kids' bunk room, with a private hot tub under the stars, an outdoor sauna, a Brunswick pool table, and an arcade. Built for the trips that turn into traditions.
THE SPACE
Spielen Haus is a three-story townhome built for the way families and friend groups actually travel together: shared spaces that pull everyone in, private spaces that let everyone breathe, and the kind of small details that turn a weekend into a memory.
Two king suites give the adults real privacy with ensuite spa-style baths. The Bunk Suite has 4 full beds with a private en-suite bath. Sleeps up to 8, perfect for the cousins, the kids, or a second couple's crew—no fighting over the bathroom. A multi-level layout means three generations can be under one roof without ever stepping on each other.
Sleeps 12 • 3 bedrooms • 3.5 baths • Walk to downtown Helen
A few things to know before you book:
We want your stay to be smooth from the moment you arrive, so here are a few details up front.
Gated community. Spielen Haus is in Innsbruck, a gated community with a manned guard gate. When you arrive, give the guard the property address and your stay dates, and they'll issue a temporary car tag. If you arrive after 10 PM, you'll use the after-hours gate code we provide, if needed.
Parking. The home has 2 dedicated parking spots out front, plus room for up to 4 more cars in the guest spots on the road right by the home. If your group is coming in several cars, plan for a short walk from those overflow spots.
Townhome layout. Spielen Haus is one side of a townhome and shares one wall with the neighboring unit. That unit is owned separately and has its own rules, so there may be guests next door at times. Noise is rarely an issue, but we want you to know the layout before you arrive.

August 2026As a single parent, there are three things I look for...location, safety, and cleanliness. Jonathan's location was that and more. The house was beautiful just like the pictures. I have come to Helen a few times and stayed in other places including local hotels. This is my new favorite. I plan to reserve here for all future vacations. Thabk you again for a great experience!

August 2026Spielen Haus was good for our short stay at Helen. The location is close to main st near restaurants and activities. Home itself is well appointed some thoughtful touches (lower level arcade games and board are great for families wjtb young ones). It’s all we’ll do e with the exception of kitchen where some appliances and teflon pans were not usable. Also spots on some linen and the main level bathroom floor showing wear . Those are fixable and minor takeaways from otherwise cozy, comfortable cabin experience and should work great for most groups and families. The host Jonathan and Candace were responsive and proactive in their communication and great hosts

August 2026Absolutely loved the home!!! Unfortunately we only had one night, but we'll be back! I have active boys and want to keep them busy and off their phones and they just loved the pool table, hot tub, arcade games, pool, and then finished with smores. It truly had everything plus its a beautiful quiet neighborhood great to walk around and see the mountains plus its gated which I absolutely loved and felt so safe. Simple instructions to get in and out. It was perfect! We will be back and for a few days!!

June 2026We had a wonderful stay. The house was immaculate. Very clean and incredibly functional. Enough space for everyone to spread out and have some privacy. The beds were very comfortable and the area was quiet and relaxing. Close to the attractions but not too busy. The host was outstanding. We had a wonderful visit and highly recommend this rental.
