The Guest House – Historic Log cabin in Big Canoe
Summary:
Pack up the family and get ready for the adventure of a lifetime when you embark on a getaway to Jasper in the heart of the North Georgia mountains!
The Space:
With its ideal blend of natural beauty, outdoor adventure, and welcoming southern hospitality, there’s something here for everyone to fall in love with. One of the original homes built in the desirable Big Canoe community, The Guest House is ready to host you, a tranquil hub to return to beginning and after days filled with adventure. One of the few log cabins in the resort, its history is unmatched while modern renovations provide you with all the updated amenities you’ve come to desire.
The Big Canoe community is a destination in its own right, offering guests access to exclusive amenities like miles of hiking trails, a championship golf course, tennis/pickleball/bocce courts, swimming pools, a marina with pontoon boat rentals, and 3 gorgeous lakes for fishing, kayaking, and boating. And that’s just the beginning! Play an energetic round of racquetball, keep up with your goals in the fitness center, or steam all your cares away in the sauna. Mealtime is even more convenient via exclusive onsite restaurants, afterward taking a stroll to gaze out at the beautiful lake views or snap a few selfies by the waterfalls.
The home’s cabin-chic interior showcases soaring ceilings sitting atop open spaces expertly curated to maximize your relaxation and connectivity. Sink into the tufted armchairs in the cozy living room, swapping stories about the day’s adventures by the seasonal wood-burning fireplace or queueing up episodes of your favorite shows on the smart TV. The dining table seats the whole crew for formal meals, also playing host to a spontaneous game night. The stylish, well-equipped kitchen has everything you need to whip up delightful homecooked meals, with full-sized appliances, glossy stone countertops, and ample cabinetry stocked with cookware and dining ware.
When you’re ready to get back outdoors, there’s plenty of opportunity to soak up the fresh air and picturesque tree-lined surroundings. Take your fresh cup of morning coffee or a refreshing evening beverage under the natural canopy on the wraparound deck or gather around the firepit for a night toasting up tasty treats under the stars.
This home comfortably sleeps 4 guests between 2 bedrooms, one of which is upstairs in the loft.
Bedroom #1 includes a full sized bed and ensuite bathroom with an oversized single vanity and glass walk-in shower.
Bedroom #2 is in the loft and includes a full size bed, smart TV, work desk with chair, and ensuite bathroom with a single vanity and glass walk-in shower.

Nicknamed "The First Mountain City," Jasper is located 50 miles north of Atlanta, Georgia. It is also known as the Marble Capital of Georgia. Especially unique is the pink marble as seen at the historic Tate House. The city's small-town atmosphere lends itself to a friendly, mountain experience with good local restaurants, such as the Woodbridge Inn where Chef Hans Rueffert prepares a daily delight of signature dishes. Taste the local wines of Sharp Mountain Vineyards, golf the links at Big Canoe or Bent Tree, and explore the area's Cherokee heritage. Just a short drive from Jasper is the town of Talking Rock where you will find antique shops, a historic schoolhouse museum and artists' displays. Endless opportunities are available for you to explore the stunning North Georgia Mountains during your stay!
HOUSE RULES:
• No Adult Parties.
• No Smoking at this property.
• All exterior Lights must be turned off after 10pm ( Big Canoe has light and noise pollution rules).
