Great secluded spot

The cabin is in a secluded spot, which is great if that’s what you’re looking for (we were). It is a bit of a pain to leave Big Canoe since it’s at the back of the property (seems to take about 20 minutes, but there was also a detour while we stayed so I’m not sure if it’s normally less time. Overall, the property was clean and in great condition, and we had a wonderful time. The checkout process was slightly confusing, as there were some conflicting instructions and we weren’t able to type the correct code in the door to check out, but that really wasn’t a big deal at all.

Bear Necessity

Beautiful house in the woods with a spectacular screened in porch! Great area for morning coffee and night time dinner and games. Check in was a breeze and great communication with the management company. The property was very clean and the beds were very comfortable! We had an amazing stay.

Beautiful Property

We had an amazing weekend for a quick moms getaway. The house was spacious, nicely decorated, with plenty of seating. Unfortunately we didn’t have internet due to a storm that came through prior to our arrival. Other than that a geat experience.

Excellent quiet property

We really had a good time at big canoe and this property. Very quiet and the nicely renovated. Some restaurants are only open thurs to sat, so be mindful of that. Otherwise its about 25 drive to jasper. The accommodations were comfy, beds are nice, bathrooms small but workable, and the screened in porch is great. Would definitely recommend and will be returning. Thank you

Wedding at the Club

Lovely venue for young couple at the club and a perfect time of year Our issues were with the home. It shows well on line with attractive photos. Living room room was functional and comfortable. We specifically choose VRBO homes larger than we require for the two of us because we like large kitchens and luxurious baths. This home missed the mark on both counts. Kitchen is tight size wise with old appliances. The master bathroom is a nightmare with a largely nonfunctional layout. Towels should be replaced immediately!!!!! This property served its purpose but was not enjoyable and not one I would recommend to others.

Peaceful location

We decided to take a quick mid-week trip to Big Canoe with our 3 kids. The house was clean & nicely furnished. Close to the beach club area & marina. We really enjoyed the quiet screened in porch for morning coffee & dinner on the porch. My only dings on this rental - all of the towels that were decoratively folded on the beds were very damp when we went to use them. Housekeeping no doubt had to know they were folding damp towel. Luckily they were not soured. We had to toss them all in the dryer before being able to shower. I also can honestly say i’ve never stayed in a vrbo that repeatedly sends reminders & leaves out a printed sheet instructing us to strip all the beds & start a load of towels before departing With the fees you pay on top of the actual per night fee….that seems like a really obnoxious request.
