Notes: Big Canoe is a gated mountain community. Quiet and beautiful and impeccably maintained to respect the beauty of the unique setting of the area. There is a community center and facilities in the heart of Big Canoe, including three lakes, a community beach and rock slide, two large outdoor pools plus a fully equipped fitness center and an Olympic sized pool. Their is an additional charge for use of these facilities but as our guests these costs are relatively nominal. There is a large outdoor tennis facility and 27 holes of championship golf. These are also available and reasonably priced for homeowners of Big Canoe which we will gladly pass on to our guests. There are dozens of walking trails that traverse the 8000 acres that make up Big Canoe -- with over 30% permanently set aside as green space. There are several waterfalls all of which can easily be walked to on well marked wooded trails.

Wonderful Home & Location!

Review Submitted: May 14, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
We stayed in this home for a long weekend in February with our two children and had such a wonderful time. Big Canoe is a beautiful setting and we can't wait to see it when all the trees and greenery are back in bloom! It was so quiet and relaxing and the kids really enjoyed finding each of the waterfalls that dot the area. All were within short hiking distance and one was very near the house.

The home is immaculate and tastefully but simply decorated. We weren't looking for anything fancy just a place that was near us, easy drive from Atlanta, and a place where we would get what we were promised and what we paid for. This home and the hospitality of the owner met all of these criteria perfectly.

Owner's Response: We love the fact that adults and children can have such a good time staying in our home in Big Canoe. In the Summer and Fall it is even more beautiful and wonderous! We enjoy greeting and meeting our guests and ensuring they have a highly satisfying stay.

Our wonderful stay at Big Canoe

Review Submitted: December 19, 2011 Date of Stay: November 2011
A beautiful family home in the mountains. We had a wonderful and restful retreat in the clouds at Big Canoe. The house is beautifully deocrated a great venue for a romantic weekend , My husband and I are planning to go back,
(great view of the sunset ) he loved it took pictures eveyday and has not stopped talking to his friends about the place.
The children had a great time , they woke up on Thanksgiving morning to five deer wondering around the front yard at sun rise. The Owners made us feel welcome and very comfortable , we got lost getting to the house so had to call , they soon set us on the right path thank you again .
If you are looking for an escape from the crowds , with wonderful scenery and all the comforts of home this is a great spot.
Owner's Response: We're glad you had such a good time in our home and during your stay in Big Canoe. The fall season and the holidays is a wonderful time of the year to see the fall leaves and experience the beauty of the moumtains. We'll look forward to your next visit.

Wonderful home

Review Submitted: September 20, 2011 Date of Stay: July 2011
My husband and I stayed at this home for an extended weekend. We were there to attend a wedding but came for a couple of days early and stayed an additional day afterwards. We were very pleased with the accommodations - it is just as described. A newer and very spacious house we were surprised by what we got for the money.

It is about 10 minutes from the "community center" and the lake in the middle of the Big Canoe valley. An easy drive and the elevation provides for a breeze and nice views.

Big Canoe is truly beautiful. Green and perfectly maintained, with plenty to do if you like walking or hiking the trails along the streams and to the waterfalls. The main lake above the dam is one of the prettiest I've ever seen.

Owner's Response: Thank you for the kind words. Petit Lake is indeed a beautiful lake we are glad you enjoyed the beauty of it and all the other areas of Big Canoe. They do such a wonderful job around the year with the green space and miles of common areas throughout Big Canoe's 8000 acres.

Wonderful weekend away

Review Submitted: February 23, 2011 Date of Stay: February 2011
My husband and I and our 2 children spent a long weekend in Big Canoe. The house is in a convenient location but also very quiet with a nice valley view. It is really tastefully and nicely decorated and accommodating. We especially liked the well-stocked kitchen and the roominess offered for the price. There was lots of trails to explore and we enjoyed the pool one day and exploring the little communities around the Jasper and Ellijay area one sunny afternoon. We hope to come again.

Owner's Response: Thank you for the nice comments. We like to cook so I guess it shows in our kitchen! And year around the areas around Big Canoe are great to explore. Come back in the summer or fall and enjoy the many Apple and berry farms in the area too.
