Description

On top of fun amenities within the gated Big Canoe Community — including miles of hiking trails, lakeside activities, a 27-hole golf course, tasty eateries, 4 swimming pools, a hot tub and sauna, and tennis courts — guests at Hillside Retreat will have entertainment, homey conveniences, and relaxing extras at the cabin. This 4-bedroom, 4½-bathroom cabin rental in Big Canoe features 3,150 square feet of space to spread out and unwind every day of your Blue Ridge Mountain getaway in Jasper, Georgia.

Cook full meals, mix drinks, and store sweet treats in the outfitted kitchen and dine at the formal table, laughing and chatting about your time at a local museum or winery. Following the open concept at this Big Canoe rental, the living room invites you to toss snacks on the coffee table, sit down, and enjoy quality time together. You can read by a crackling fire on chilly evenings, turn on the big screen TV to watch Netflix, or simply sip coffee while gazing at tree-studded views through the large windows.  

Get super cozy in the upstairs sitting area that has a couple of plush sofas, fluffy pillows, warm lamps, and a TV. For more fun at your Big Canoe, Georgia, cabin rental, head to the rec room that features a media space with a whopping 75-inch TV and a fireplace, a full-size pool table, and a poker table! Outside, you’ll appreciate multiple decks to take in the peaceful wooded views from the loungers or rockers. There’s even a screened-in deck with an outdoor table, perfect after fixing steaks on the gas grill.

Living Room

Make your way into the bright and inviting living room that features high ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace in stacked stones, a wall of windows framing the beautiful trees, a nice sitting area, and a big screen TV. Grab a cup of coffee and scroll your feed in an armchair while the sun rises. Place snacks and drinks on the coffee table and plop on the sofa to watch a cool show on DISH Network. Or pass around glasses of vino from a local winery, light a toasty fire, and chat with friends on cooler evenings in the mountains.

For more space, there’s another sitting area with a TV and sofas upstairs. It’s a nice space to retreat and read, or you can make it the kids’ hangout for the duration of your trip. They’ll have their own space to unwind, chill, and play. 

Kitchen
