You'll find the conveniences of home, fun extras, and plenty of room to spend quality time with family and friends at this gorgeous Jasper, Georgia, home.

Watch the sun come up over the mountains as you sip your coffee on the deck. Then step inside the high-end kitchen to make breakfast. It features stainless steel appliances, stone countertops, a wine fridge, and all the tools and dishes you'll need. You'll have a dining table and breakfast bar for meals and drinks, and the home even has a coffee station/wet bar.

My family of 12 went up for nine nights over Thanksgiving week and we had a wonderful time. The house had a great set up with lots of room for all of us and beautiful views from the back porch. The driveway was spacious and much less steep than many of the other locations we have stayed at. Staying in big Canoe is wonderful because of access to different hikes. Highly recommend!

Perfect Getaway

I took my Dad here for a small, low-key 60th birthday celebration. Extremely spacious, clean, and incredible views. Close to anything you need but just secluded enough to feel like you’re on your own. Highly recommend.

We love to hear that we could make your Dad's birthday celebration so enjoyable, Nicholas, with the cabin being spacious, providing stunning views of the Appalachians, and being conveniently located to everything the Appalachian Mountains has to offer!

Beautiful home with a lot of room, and added features

The view is spectacular and this is a very nice house with lots of room for people to spread out. Has beautiful porch, fenced in backyard, fire pit, flat parking area, which can be rare at big Canoe, and is exactly as described. We had a wonderful time for a wedding, and would definitely stay there again.

Big Canoe Adventure

Our family really enjoyed this house. The views are terrific and the extra space for recreation in the garage worked great for our grandsons. We took advantage of the lake and pool activities and traveled to Helen and Dahlonega for mini golf, shopping and good eating. The kitchen is wonderfully equipped with all utensils and the big screen TVs were used very frequently. A fun time was enjoyed by all.

Book Club Retreat 23'

I won't negate the fact that overall my book club and I had an amazing time at this property, however, the small but big issue we had concerning the heating and how it was handled definitely rubbed everyone the wrong way. For some reason the lower level wouldn't heat and was asking for a code which we were not privy to therefore we made contact to try and resolve the issue. We were first told that a maintenance man would be there shortly and no one ever arrived. I then later received a text, not a phone call from the owner whom I went back and forth with via text from 8:06 PM until 11:18 PM. At 10:04 PM she told me to give her 30 minutes and that she would come check but in exactly 30 minutes she texted back and stated that she couldn't make it until the morning. This past weekend was very cold and being at a higher altitude made it even colder so I simply asked what are we to do until then. I'm assuming she could work it from her end because she told me what the reading was saying from her end but we were tell her that the thermostat wasn't reading that from our end and that we were still cold. Long story short, I said my goodnights as to not ruin my vacation, and waited for her to arrive the next morning. She never did show nor did she do a follow-up call or text. Personally we just thought that wasn't good customer service.

Shunte, though we are glad to hear that you and your group had an amazing time overall at Vista Haven, we hate to hear that you had issues with the HVAC and that they were never resolved. Rest assured, this is not our standard, and we have shared your feedback with all involved departments to ensure that we have this matter addressed. We are so sorry that you had to face this issue on what was supposed to be a relaxing getaway. We value our guests' feedback both good and bad, and we appreciate you taking the time to leave us your honest review. We hope that we are able to provide you with a more enjoyable experience on your next trip to the Appalachian Mountains, however, we completely understand if you decide to stay elsewhere.

Fantastic Experience

We were there with a bunch of families and kids. We did not know what to expect especially since the photograph of the front of the property was not the best! We were extremely pleasantly surprised when we got there. The cabin was bright, airy and spacious. It was extremely clean. The kitchen was wonderfully updated. And the property is huge. There was enough space for all 12 of us, and we could have easily fit two more people as there is a nice little media room in the lower level. Overall it was extremely budget friendly, and the big canoe resort was an added plus as we got to enjoy the local Oktoberfest as well.
