Great place

We had a great stay here. The owner was very responsible. Kitchen was well equipped. Beds slept great. We didn't mind the steep stairs to front door but our 76 year old mother had to take them slow. Great place overall!

Great space for families

We stayed in Big Canoe for a few days and decided to try VRBO. It did not disappoint! The house was clean, spacious, and fully stocked. The owner was helpful in answering all of our questions and offering suggestions. We would stay here again.

Beautiful but remote

This cabin was great, the area was gorgeous and we came for a little cold weather. Unfortunately car engine died, it was Christmas Eve and it was 3 days stuck in the very remote spot up an almost vertical road,. Our host was super helpful, we were able to finally secure a rental car a day all ended well.

House in the skyline

It was a unique experience living in location so high in the mountain range for 29 days. With information on hand and additional recommendations from the host Kenny, we were able to visit Halen during Octoberfast, Blue Ridge and Gibbs Gardens on beatiful sunny days. We also enjoyed visits from deer and wild turkey. What we find challenging is driving on steep mountain roads and particularly parking on the lot in front of the house. Kenny was easy to communicate with and he is a nice person with a warm personality. We enjoyed meaningful phone conversations on several occasions.

Always On the Go Family Vacation

As soon as the cabin was ready we received a text from the owner with check in procedures and lots of information about Big Canoe. Check in was easy and we unloaded our bags, the owner came by to welcome us and showed us his favorite fishing spot where we caught 4 trout that we ate for dinner. The next day we headed to Amicalola State park for hiking, a beautiful waterfall, and zip lining. The following day we headed to Elijay for a relaxing tubing ride down the Catecay river and stopped at a winery on our way back to the cabin. After enjoying these adventures, we decided to stay in Big Canoe and enjoy all of the amenities there for the rest of our week vacation. We traveled on many hiking trails that were close, some easy like lower falls, cabin trail, while others are more challenging like upper falls trail. We enjoyed a day at the Beach Club, which included kayaking, paddle boarding, rock sliding, and a kids inflatable water park. Our 4 kids ages 1-9 years old enjoyed the playground and splash pad throughout the week. We went to the clubhouse for dinner, sights overlooking the golf course and mountains were gorgeous and food was delicious. Everyone we met at Big Canoe was friendly. Coming back to the cabin after our daily adventures was relaxing and we were always able to cook a quick dinner. Why stay here? You can relax as much as you want in a spacious, mountainous view, clean, well stocked cabin or you can make your own memories with lots of adventures close by.

Cozy Home in the Forest

Exactly what we needed for a long weekend! It had everything we needed. Beds and couches were comfy. Everything was clean and well-stocked. Very quiet area and fun to explore the forest surrounding the house. Driveways around Big Canoe are steep, our rental car couldn’t quite make it up the driveway to the house so we just parked it near the bottom. A cozy home in the woods that we enjoyed! Kenny is also great at communicating!

Wonderful place to stay in the mountains of GA!

It’s an adorable, clean, spacious, quiet place. Nature abounds and we enjoyed our stay tremendously. Just realize it is located on steep mountain roads in a mountain community so not for the faint of heart.

Amazing

This place is absolutely beautiful and very peaceful. Loved that it was in a gated community so you feel very safe. If you love and woodsy vibe but still upscale this is perfect!!! The owner is absolutely amazi ng!!! I wish we can give 10 stars instead of 5 because this place is well worth it!!! Thank you for the wonderful experience Kenny, you are the best!!

About the host

Hosted by Kenneth Pyle 702 232-6313

Host profile image
Love the place and since I am seldom there I have enjoyed sharing it with others and 50% come back every year. It is on 8,000 acres and not enough time to really see everything when you visit for only 2 days. Plus you get to meet others from around the world. Its been fun.

Why they chose this property

I chose Big Canoe because it is sooooooooooooooooo guite. . Great place to unwind.
Along with that it has four seasons. Fireplaces in the winter, great hiking weather in the spring, summer lake fun and changing of the leaves in the fall. Beautiful 8,000 acres of nature with fun for the kids to see the deer, wild turkeys, fishing the lake. Nothing like a child catching their 1st fish. Plus rainbow trout are delicious on your kitchen plate. Mmmmm.

What makes this property unique

Of course its clean and has all the amenities but what makes it stand out is the way I have worked with guest in the past and their needs. I am can adjust things for them if needed. I have even gone up one time and showed their kids the secret of fishing the lake and they each caught 2-3 rainbow trout. To see their excitement was worth the hr. drive up there to show them the secrets. After that they caught them on their own. Its the little things you do for the guest because you want them to have a memorable time.
