Gnome Mountain

Gorgeous and inviting from top to bottom, Gnome Mountain is a 1,800-square-foot, 3-bedroom +loft, 3-bathroom cabin rental in Big Canoe nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Dawsonville, Georgia. Windows from floor to ceiling welcome you as you step inside to find a heaven-reaching fireplace, cozy furnishings, a fully equipped kitchen, and a lovely dining area with views of the tranquil trees. Kick back and relax with a snack, a warm beverage, and friends or family beneath the impressive antler chandelier and exposed beams in the main living space. 

For more fun, spread out into the rec room that has another gas fireplace and a sectional to hang out and chat or read your favorite book. You can even mix cocktails at the wet bar or keep snacks on hand in the mini-fridge. The kids can play checkers or chill in the loft with 2 twin beds and another space for activities. And you can always take in the fresh mountain air on the open or screened decks at this Big Canoe rental. Sway in the rockers with morning coffee beneath the treetops or fire up the gas grill for a barbecue together!

Playing at your Big Canoe cabin or exploring the many amenities within the community — including playing golf or tennis, swimming at the outdoor pools, pontoon boating or fishing at the lakes, strolling along miles of hiking trails, working out at the fitness center, and unwinding in the community hot tub or sauna — can leave you feeling tired. Enjoy a bath in the garden tub or a hot shower, say goodnight to friends or the kids in the loft with twin beds, and slip away to your queen bedroom (1 is a murphy bed). At this cabin rental in Big Canoe, you’ll also have a washer and dryer, high speed Wi-Fi, and convenience to local fun!

Living Room

Begin your memorable family vacation or a mountain getaway with friends in the warm and welcoming living room at this Big Canoe vacation rental in North Georgia. The ceiling and stacked stone (gas) fireplace reach high, showing exposed wood beams and beautiful architecture. There’s even a giant antler chandelier that channels those classic cabin vibes. Plus, the wall of windows lets in tons of natural light and serene views of the towering trees. 

Flip on the lamps around the room to make evenings cozier with a glass of Waldmet Cellars wine or a jar of Dawsonville moonshine.  Kick back in the recliners with a riveting book or pile on the sofa with the kids. Keep treats and drinks on the coffee table to munch anytime. And light a roaring fire on chillier nights in the mountains.

Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and midnight snacks are all options at this Blue Ridge Mountain vacation rental. 

Keep fresh ingredients in the fridge, move the rollable island where it makes sense for you, and brew pots of coffee anytime.

Dining Area

Tucked into the kitchen space in the large log dining table that looks as if Mother Nature herself designed it.

It’s a nice spot to sit down for mealtimes together, enjoy dessert with coffee and friends, or make arts and crafts — inspired by the Dahlonega Arts & Wine Festival. You can even bring a few board and card games from home to play or turn this table into a temporary work or homeschool station as needed.

Rec Room

Want more space to spread out and hang out? The den, aka the rec room, offers a comfortable place to chill with your family and friends or sneak away from your group for a spell. Plop on the cozy sectional to unwind with snacks on the coffee table and a crackling fire in the lovely gas fireplace. Better yet, head over to the wet bar with a sink and mini-fridge to craft cocktails and serve drinks at the quaint bistro table. You can also play chess under the staircase.
