Airy and comfortable with thoughtful touches throughout
Cottage is small footprint on 3 levels: main level is kitchen, dining, living, half bath, deck, screened porch. Lower level is laundry, screened porch and 2 BR with shared bath with tub/shower combo. Upper level is master BR with bathroom w/shower. Full kitchen is open to living and dining and is well equipped: large fridge, electric range, toaster oven, small microwave, both Keurig and drip coffee makers, electric kettle, blender, juicer, Brita pitcher, starter supplies of dish detergents, laundry pods, trash bags, paper towels, coffee filters. Plenty of dishware and silverware and even plastic plates/bowls/cups/utensils for kids. Pantry with room for your things. Bedrooms are furnished with dressers and side tables and large closets. Bed linens are good quality and beds are firm but comfortable and attractively made up. Ceiling fans have separate wall switches for light and fan. Full sized washer and dryer on lower level. Gated, upscale, quiet community about half hour from nearest towns, but grocery at main entrance and Dollar General at north gate. Streets are narrow and can be steep. No motorhomes or motorcycles. Houses in this neighborhood are close together with negligible yard space and short, tight 2-car-only driveway but ample decks and porches and a feeling of privacy. Extra parking is a couple of streets away from this home, as is a playground and other amenities. Rental agency is communicative and responsive.

Family trip
This was our third time to Big Canoe and it was just absolutely wonderful! This home was very spacious and had lots of great features! only complaint that there is like one dish towel. Big Canoe is not somewhere you go on vacation and go out to eat all the time, you do lots of cooking there! so my only suggestion would be some more dish towels for the guests! The home was well cleaned and taken care of. The driveway is also flat which is great and hard to come by in that area!

Big Canoe Heaven
We lived our stay in Big Canoe. We lived in this amazing community for 18 years so it was just like coming home. This is a great location within Bug Canoe. Centrally located. I am 70 so the stairs were steep leading to the master bedroom and there is a step down just as you open the bedroom door. That is just for information. Our day was perfect.
