Great location

Great property - enjoyed thoroughly, particularly the deck on nice fall days/evenings. Kitchen supplies (pots/pans/utensils could be improved. Contacting the team for check in was more difficult than needed, particularly given poor cell service in the area.

Needed more information especially about the steep driveway.

The house is very comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. Our only complaint was that the driveway was so steep that it was very difficult and almost impossible for us to get in and out as I am handicapped. It should be noted in the write up of the property. But the management company was very helpful in all ways and we appreciated that very much.

Xmas in Big Canoe

Big Canoe is a very beautiful place. However, it's far from everything. There is a nearby supermarket and a couple good restaurants. But if you want a Publix or Walmart it's a 35+ minute drive. And if you are not a fan of driving in mountains I wouldn't recommend. If you are looking for a quiet secluded beautifully kept area than Big Canoe is your place. We would like to try it one time in hotter weather to try all the outdoor activities. The house was beautiful and comfortable except for there is a hot water issue (it runs out very quickly) The management is very responsive and resolved any issues we had.

Great house, lovely community

We had a wonderful smeary at this property. The property managers were very responsive and easy to work with. The house was clean and just as described. It was very cold when we were there and the management company brought by an extra propane tank for the outdoor heaters so we didn’t have to worry about running out. TVs were smart TVs that allowed us to login to our streaming accounts and the kids to watch Disney+ and Netflix in the evenings. The kitchen was well stocked with kitchen utensils, bowls, knives, cookie sheets, pans. The beds and sofas/chairs were comfortable. We loved big canoe. Took the kids to the indoor pool for a swim and they had a blast getting to swim during the winter. We also hiked the lower falls trail which was just about two miles total and very doable for the two 5yo on our trip. I would highly recommend renting in big canoe and this hose was just perfect for two families with kids.

We were very excited checking-in on Friday afternoon, the house had a warm and pleasant look and feel. Love the fact the house is at the end of the street and across from a parking/picnic area, very little car traffic comes through the cul-de-sac. The driveway is somewhat of a challenge, but negotiable. There were a couple of snags that we dealt with in the house as you'll see below. We had planned for eight of us staying at the house, but two from our party cancel at the last minute. We'd like to point out a couple snags. The bed in the basement wasn't very comfortable and not used the second night, good thing for the bunk beds as a backup. We ran out of hot water for showers Saturday afternoon, this was an inconvenience while everyone was getting ready to attend a wedding. If these two issues were the only issues to address our rating would have been higher. Overall navigation in Big Canoe was not a major challenge when Waze or Google maps worked, about 95% of the time. Navigation wasn't the issue here, it's speed and other drivers. Its impossible to safely drive the posted 35mph speed limit, especially in a large SUV with six people. We found ourselves driving 25-30mph most of the time, however driving under the speed limit presents a problem for others who want to drive fast through the twisting turning hilly roads. Saturday evening was the pinnacle for us, navigating through the dark roads only to have another SUV with there bright lights tailgating us. It was virtually impossible to drive the speed limit and the driver behind us was very upset that we weren't going fast. We even stopped at one point to let them pass but they didn't until we were seconds away from the first stop sign. We had to slam on our brakes to avoid rear ending them. Needless to say everyone in our vehicle was very upset, emotionally and physically. What a horrible way to end the day. The check-out list, which was never shared in any of the rental agreement information was absurd to say the lease, especially when the fee includes cleaning service. We had to strip bed linen, load the dishwasher, take trash to trash depot, and do general clean-up by all by 10am for check out on a Sunday morning. This should all be shared upfront with renters so they know what is required. Renters may have second thoughts renting this property if they read the check-out procedures. Of course if you don't follow the check-out tasks you risk being charged additional fees. Needless to say it's not a very convenient check-out process. Overall experience and consensus in our group was to never return to Big Canoe in the future, primarily due to the roads and crazy drivers. It's sad because we thought it would be a great place to have a relaxing weekend and not feel like we were driving in downtown Atlanta.

My wife’s funeral stay in Big Canoe

I was in town to bury my wife! She, and I, were married in Big Canoe 8 short years ago! It was a bitter-sweet emotional weekend!
