Paradise Retreat - Sip Cocktails by Lake Disharoon, Play Golf & Swim Year-Round

The house was beautiful, and the view was wonderful. There were a lot of rules, before you leave; wash towels and have them drying in the dryer. That is no problem but they only gave us two laundry soap pods for a house that hostes 12 people for 4 days. We had two trash bags and all trash was to be removed from the house or there would be a $10 fine for each trash bag left. We had two dish washer pods. Only one extra roll of TP. It seems petty but when you are staying at a high end place, I would expect just a few more supplies. We had one roll of paper towel. We stopped at a grocery store before we arrived I didn't think to pack TP, laundry soap, dishwasher soap, trash bags and paper towels. They were very skimpy on all supplies. Also when I messaged the host they never got back with me. When I called them I was able to get some answers. Overall the place was very nice but I was disappointed they didn't have basic supplies.

The house was VERY NICE and comfortable, and would be great for the right event. Couple things to consider, Big Canoe is a gated community and its very professional (not much flexibility...which is good for the residents). If you have many guest arriving at different times, might be a good idea to ensure the guest list is accurate prior to the event (not exactly sure how you'd do this other than ask for their list). Also houses are close together and roads have no shoulders; parking space at the house is 2 (maybe 3) vehicles. If you have an abundance of vehicles, you may have to park in the Chapel parking lot and shuttle (not a big deal....just need to plan)

The location was fantastic and the house was spacious. We had a wonderful time during our stay.

Good choice for our new year vacations. We were a group of ten people and enjoyed staying at the cabin and walking by the nature. Also located at a reasonable driving distance from Atlanta downtown and Helen GA. Could be also a nice place during summer. What we didn’t like was the mattress (a little bit hard), small issues with the furniture. In general was a good choice.
