There is a stock with a trout fishing lake, marina, and rental boats available. Big Canoe has over twenty-four miles of maintained hiking trails and plenty of wildlife including deer, black bears, and turkey. As a renter, you have access to all of the Big Canoe amenities paid directly for each amenity. I'm sorry, but we do not offer any passes with the rental. We are more than happy to offer our recommendations about the local area and answer any questions you have about the unit or the complex itself. You can reach us through your booking conversation thread, or you can speak to our 24/7 Guest Experience Department.

Cozy
Cozy and comfortable with enough space to spread out for family of 8. Would have liked more wash rags and towels for each bathroom and bath mats in front of showers and tubs. Light in master bedroom needs bulb to be replaced. The fan turned on but the ceiling light would not. Cozy, clean stay all in all and would come back!

Great, but...
amenities has some issues (mainly some of the furniture, that posed real hazards. Management sent a team member to mitigate immediately. Communication was very good, but not personal. Location and property were excellent, very family oriented. We enjoyed the Big Canoe amenities. There were a couple of things that stood out. First, they have a pretty hefty cleaning fee, which while substantial, we may understand for the size of the place. However, they require guests to take out their own trash to the transfer station, which may or may not be convenient for everyone. This is becoming an increasing trend among rentals on VRBO. We will start filtering against it, since it is a major deterrent as a guest, that is renting in order not think about the responsibilities of home life.

Elk Horn Home away
The property has a small front yard, but back yard is large and wooded. We saw deer several times. The outside of the home is mostly well kept. We (and our dog) loved the downstairs patio and decks. The outside chairs and furniture were dusty and dirty with some only in fair condition. The outside grill worked nicely. We loved the lay-out of the home and decor. Inside furniture/rugs were in good condition on main floor. Beds were comfortable. The third floor bedroom tv wasn’t connected to a service and there was no furniture on their deck. We had trouble with the oven sealing enough around the edges to cook our biscuits, casseroles, and cake. I had to sit and hold the door on the stove closed so the door ajar signal would not come on and the oven would stay hot. The management was prompt to send a repairman out when I called to complain. The repairman said someone had stood on the oven door and stripped the hinges. They were quick to bring us a large toaster oven replacement. There were some other things that lowered our satisfaction rating of the property: The downstairs tv did not work properly, downstairs fireplace didn’t work, the downstairs refrigerator didn’t stay cold, the upstairs regular ice maker didn’t work well (we liked the custom ice maker though), and the toilet in the master suite took 45-60 seconds to flush with handle held down the whole time. For the price of the property, I expected all updated/clean furniture and everything in working order.

We had a good visit. We did have an issue with the grill the last night we were there and a couple of issues we discussed with the property manager. I liked the property and everyone had a great time.

Great place in Big Canoe
This is the second time in as many trips we have stayed at the Elk Horn lodge. We love the location near the south gate with the golf course and lake close by as well. It is always clean and well stocked with basic kitchen needs. The house was the lerfect size for our group of 6 and easily could have accommodated more people. Im sure we will be back again next year!

This property is as advertised. Really nice in a very nice community. IGA is a great grocery store. Because of the toddler we chose to do small outings and eat most meals at the property.
