NEW TO THE BIG CANOE RENTAL MARKET
Enjoy a relaxing and charming stay in this original Plummer cabin located in the heart of the Big Canoe mountains!
During the 1970s, Richard Plummer constructed 115 Plummer cabins. A Plummer cabin is characterized by cedar walls, pine floors, and a rustic, nature-focused design with features like cathedral ceilings, exposed beams, and screened porches. Plummer cabins offer a unique and authentic cabin experience with a connection to nature.
Today's Big Canoe is an 8,000-acre private, gated community in the foothills of North Georgia's Blue Ridge Mountains, known for its natural beauty, extensive trail system, three lakes for recreation, championship golf course, and racquet sports. Visitors must be a guest of a property owner or have rental accommodations to access the many amenities and natural areas within the community.
Our remodeled and updated Plummer cabin is a traditional Plummer build. Pine flooring, cedar walls, high cathedral ceiling, exposed beams, and large windows exposing the indoors to the beautiful mountain view. Rustic Charm offers modern updates, such as a tankless water heater, central heat and air, a gas grill, gas cooktop, and all new appliances. There are 2 bedrooms on the lower level and one bedroom (open to main floor) in the loft. The bathroom on the main floor has a tiled shower, while the Jack-and-Jill bathroom on the lower floor has a shower/tub combo. The cabin is comfortably furnished with high-end selections yet fitting for a 70’s-built original Plummer cabin. Rustic Charm features three floors, two levels of decking, and a screened-in porch allowing you to enjoy the wooded mountains and the stunning wildlife of Big Canoe. The lower deck is private to the King room, with secluded seating, nature watching, and an old fashioned hanging lantern.
The common area centers around a wood-burning fireplace, built with stacked Tennessee field stones. Amenities inside the cabin include Wi-Fi internet, streaming TV in main common area, TVs in both bedrooms, and a fully equipped kitchen with gas cooktop. The loft offers a cozy 'getaway' setting overlooking the main gathering area and fireplace.
The cabin accommodates 6 adults. Comfortable beds with brand new high-end mattresses, lots of pillows, bedding and blankets to spare. One King Bed, two Queen beds, and one Twin XL.
Rustic Charm was built on a hillside alongside of a road that dead ends at one of many entrances to the Big Canoe hiking trails. Almost no through traffic on this road.
OUTSIDE, enjoy all that nature has to offer with a short walk down-the-road access to 20 miles of hiking trails, upper and lower falls, and all of the beautiful mountain views that make Big Canoe so special.
With the enviable combination of outdoor activities and resort-style amenities, Big Canoe truly has it all. From trails, lakes, and streams to golf, tennis, and fishing, there’s plenty to explore and enjoy within our gates.
