(Some amenities, including swim club, are additional fees) 2015 Bliss Awards - Big Canoe named Best Hiking Community of the Year "Big Canoe has 22 miles of genuine hiking trails, not double purpose community sidewalks. The well maintained hiking trails lead to waterfalls, Indian trail tree markers, historic moonshine stills and cabins dating back to the early 1800’s. During the spring, wildflowers and Rhododendron fill the forest. During the fall, the forest floor is carpeted with crunchy leaves and falling acorns. The smells and sounds are invigorating hiking in Georgia."
Big Canoe is located only 15 miles from Amicalola Falls State Park, 17 miles from Jasper and 27 miles from the historic town of Dahlonega. Check out the Big Canoe Community and more about the area at the Big Canoe website!

The Bees Knees is the beat value for a vacation rental that I have ever received. It far exceeded my expectations for comfort, neighborhood, and decor. And the owner was very communicative and kind.
The cabin absolutely exceeded our expectations. You truly felt like you were in a treehouse. Its close proximity to all of the Big Canoe amenities, which makes it perfect. The cabin had everything we needed and was super clean and beautiful. Highly recommend. I know we will be back!
Even though it rained the whole weekend, we had a wonderful stay! The Bee’s Knees was super clean and comfortable with everything we needed to relax and stay in!I would recommend it to anyone who wants to get away!
Very cute and cozy rental. The host was very nice to work with. The space is small for a family of four but was still functional. The house had enough towels, cooking gear, and supplies. Everything was clean except the bathtubs. There were several long black hairs in the tubs but easily washable. There are several steps from the road to the unit so make sure to bring stable shoes when loading and unloading.
Great stay. Only comment is there a strong odor inside the cabin but it didn’t affect our stay. Very cutely decorated. Great communication and easy stay.
The host was phenomenal! The space was lovely. The entire cabin was so cozy and had everything we needed. It was a perfect place to stay for the weekend!
The Bee's Knees was in a great location in Big Canoe -- right around the corner from the Jeep trail, near the large playground and walking track, near the pools -- it felt centrally located- just a quick drive to everything in the community. This place had a perfect set up for a family of 4 -- it's well appointed, the beds and pillows are quality, the bathrooms are updated (there's a jetted tub in the master -- which I normally would not utilize, but everything was so clean it was easy to try), and the kitchen was the perfect space to whip up a quick meal. This little place is so cozy and inviting, and on top of it all, there are views to of the lake on the backside of the deck where there is seating set up. We loved it and will be back!
We come to this little place every year and every year we are so glad we did!! The home is perfectly cozy with plenty of room and comfortable spaces! The hosts are always so helpful and responsive!
