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.

My family and I just spent a wonderful week at this lovely home in Big Canoe. We have used VRBO numberous times over the past few years - and this is one of the few times that the house actually EXCEEDED our expectations, and the reality was BETTER than the pictures!! With three kids ranging in age from a very active 6 year old boy to a pre-teen girl - this vacation had something for everyone - lots of hiking (several waterfalls within 15 min hike), exploring, hanging out by the pool, reading on the lovely tree-house-like deck, playing card games, doing puzzles - we all had a fabulous time. Big Canoe offered a plethora of activities, the house was beautiful and comfortable and the views were breath-taking. Make sure you carve out time to visit Amicalola Falls - stunning! The Mexican restaurant just across from the North Gate was excellent too (this coming from two Texans!)

I hope we can come again sometime SOON! Thank you, thank you for opening your lovely home to us!

Our family and the family of our neighbors and friends spent a week in Big Canoe with our 3 children. We had a wonderful time, the weather was great and it was so relaxing. Plenty to do if you like the outdoors. We hiked many of the trails and tried to see all of the waterfalls which are easy hikes (our children are ages 7, 9, and 12). The house really immaculate and feels like new. Nicely furnished and tasteful and the photos are very representative. We plan to do this again. Thank you for letting us stay in your home.
Owner's Response: We are happy that guests find our home to be a great place to stay, take their children and relax with friends. Enjoying the outdoors with the great weather and the gorgeous scenery of Big Canoe's "seven mountains" wrapped around three mountain lakes is what we love and know others love as well about Big Canoe.

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.

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.

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.

Just Perfect

For spring break with our son this was a perfect place. The waterfalls at Big Canoe are all easy hikes and with the rains were so picturesque. The house is south and easterly facing so the morning sunrises over the mountains across the valley were a treat every morning. We hope to come back again. It is a very easy and quick drive about an hour north of Atlanta area. Thank you for the hospitality.

Owner's Response: Location is one of our strong points -- just an hour north of Atlanta but a world away in beauty and peace. Everyone enjoys the sunrises, year around! They are a beautiful way to start your day.
