We had such a wonderful time at Big Canoe! We walked into the home and it was perfect. We had three families and the layout of the house made it easy for each family to have their own space when needed. We enjoyed the swimming facilities, paddle boats, pontoon boat, and trails! We did it all!

New Year's 2008-2009 Extended familie members ranging from 6 months - 60+ years gathered here together. We are from Georgia, Florida, and Kentucky. This is a great place for large family groups to gather. The three levels make it easy for different activities to be going on all at one time. The surroundings are beautiful, too. New Year's Day was Sunny and chilly - we hiked and saw the rock slide. We all want to come back in the Summer to try it out. We had a great time taking our grandchildren to the playground, and had lots of good food, drink and fun. Thanks from the Peterson, Brown, Brunson and Carrico Families.

Came down for a wedding in Big Canoe, rented Eagles Nest with some friends we don't get to spend nearly enough time with. Great space, great accomodations, easy arrangements, value great for the cost. We attended with several other families who rented other houses, and by "home" became the place to meet because of the size, space, and well maintained accomodations. I encourage anyone who balks at the price to read other reviews, and to also take into consideration that Tom (owner) answered every single call we placed to him in a timely fashion (we heard some "horror stories" from other couples who had a tough time getting keys, finding their house, inaccurate descriptions, general cleanliness not present). We will be back next summer for a getaway, and look forward to hopefully renting the same home or one of Tom's other properties. Thanks!

This was the perfect time of the year to visit! Your home is absolutely beautiful! We had our annual family reunion at Big Canoe and it was the best one ever. Thank you for providing such a well equipped and tastefully decorated home for our stay. Hopefully, we will be able to use your home again for another gathering! God Bless!

We had a wonderful stay in Big Canoe, at Eagles Nest. There were 10 people in our party, and we had adequate space for sleeping, eating and dining. The owners were very good to work with and I would recommend this home as a great place to stay.

Group Retreat at Eagle's Nest

Date of Stay: 04/30/08 Review Submitted: 05/06/08

We used Eagle's Nest as a retreat for a group of teachers. I am a VERY picky person when it comes to cleanliness and I would give this house a perfect score. The pictures do not do it justice! We took a group of eight and we had more than enough room. The house was beautifully decorated and the views from the decks were absolutely gorgeous! We enjoyed using a few of the hiking trails on the property. The owners were very easy to work with. As we got ready to leave everyone in our group stopped at the main lodge to get more information about returning to Big Canoe. We will definitely use Eagle's Nest again!

My family and I stayed at Eagles Nest for the first time during the thanksgiving holiday November 2005. We had a great time...this home is really spacious and warm. We felt right at home as we stepped through the door. We just could not wait for the end of the year to return .... and we did. If you are looking for the home which gives all the views during the day and also to see the stars from the comfort of your bed during the nights....this is the home you need to be. You and and your family will definitely return soon. Thanks for your home and we'll be back in the near future.

My family and a few friends just returned from this home after spending New Years Weekend at Big Canoe. The home is very nicely decorated, spacious, and is the kitchen is very well equipped with plenty of high quality items. We hiked along a nature trail which is very accessible from the house. I would recommend this rental home to anyone wanting a relaxing vacation.

Myself and my family traveled from England and Ireland to attend a wedding in Atlanta.We stayed at this beautiful house for two weeks and all agreed it was the best holiday we ever had.The house exceeded all our expections it was big enough for everyone to have their own space but it was also very cosy and had a lovely homely feel to it.I would defy anyone to spend time here and not enjoy it. We would like to thank the Aagaar family for the wonderful memories we all have of our holiday in Big Canoe
