Awesome couples retreat!
This was honestly the best VRBO we have ever had. The place was cleaner than any other we've been in, very well appointed, and nice in literally every way. The bed was comfortable, the hot tub was fantastic, and the view from the porch was awesome. We saw tons of wildlife and our favorite thing quickly became having our morning coffee and waiting to see what animals passed by. I cant say enough good about this place. The host was a great communicator and very pleasant to deal with.

This place was a dream come true and very high up on the list of best VRBO’s we’ve stayed at. It was an outstanding location, beautifully decorated, stocked with everything we needed, and had great TV and internet access. The hosts were very accommodating and took care of us very well! We would definitely stay here again

Excellent getaway!
The Nest was just what we were hoping for. A great location that is quite and peaceful in a beautiful setting. The view from the deck is spectacular with wonderful vistas of the lake and surrounding mountains. Big Canoe is also a beautiful community with many amenities if you so desire. We only ventured out once, to the golf clubhouse where we enjoyed an afternoon snack and some iced tea at the bar. We followed that up with a short walk on one of the many nature trails in the area. The Nest itself is a beautiful little almost treehouse style one room bungalow with a bathroom and kitchen. It was all we needed for our mission of rest and relaxation. This was a quick three night stay and our only regret was we didn’t stay longer, we couldn’t have been happier.

We had such a great time at The Nest! Everything was clean and we had no problems with any amenities. It's in a safe community, and it's in within driving distance to hiking and wineries. I'd definitely recommend this adorable cabin if anyone wants to have a quick and fun getaway to north Georgia!

Best 1st Anniversary
Our stay at The Nest was absolutely perfect! My husband and I went to Big Canoe for our 1 year anniversary, we love the community so much. The Nest was easy to find and situated perfectly on the side of the mountain for breathtaking views. The hot tub was the perfect way to wind down from the hikes and adventures every day. We plan to come back every year! Thank you Hardie Dawn!

Wedding get away
We stayed in the quaint little cabin for a long weekend. We were in town for a wedding. The cabin was great. Clean, great location, a little confusing to get to but only because Big Canoe is huge. Communication was great with owners. No issues. Would definitely come back. Jasper is an awesome town and is close!

Relaxing stay
We really enjoyed the weekend getaway at the nest. Beautiful views and loved all the windows. Bed was comfortable as well. Gas fireplace was really nice as it started to get cold while we were there. The place did have a funky smell when we arrived… almost like a porta-potty type smell. The floors were also sticky but it could have been the cleaner used. Other than those 2 things we would recommend this place to others. The host was so kind and communication was excellent!

Perfect Weekend Retreat for the soon-to-be "Mr. & Mrs."
Our daughter and her fiance thoroughly enjoyed their weekend stay at "The Nest"! It was a pre-wedding / R & R retreat but also a soecial gift to celebrate the groom's birthday. They couldn't say enough about how impressed they were with every single detail of your adorable tree topper cabin! Only regret was not getting to stay longer. They made the most of every minute there and were able to relax, go for hikes, unwind in the hot tub and prepare a nice birthday dinner on the grill, while also exploring Big Canoe and all it has to offer! Exactly what they needed to prepare them for their quickly approaching wedding day, which is also at Big Canoe! Our entire family loves Big Canoe and can't get enough of it! :)
