COMMUNITY SPIRIT BEYOND THE GATES

Congratulations to the class of 2015! Thanks to the generosity of Big Canoe Chapel Members, 131 high school students are heading off to college this year to pursue their dreams. 

Caring for your neighbors’ well-being is more than just an idea in one of the largest master planned communities in North Georgia.  It is a way of life! Nestled in the beautiful mountains of north Georgia, Big Canoe is a resort-style gated community that truly looks out for and helps one another.  Visitors are so fond of the area’s nurturing reputation that Big Canoe Realty's new construction and available homes are often talked about as a highly sought after destination retirees and young families looking to relocate. Seniors and families looking to settle down in an area with mountain golf courses and modern amenities choose Big Canoe.

While some communities are only centered on social activities within the gates, Big Canoe is also focused on encouraging and inspiring the next generation of teachers, leaders, and business owners in the surrounding local area.  You won’t find executives from top performing companies, who own homes in the master planned community of Big Canoe, just spending their time on the beautiful mountain golf courses. Instead, you may find them paying it forward like residents around here do. They are mentoring and equipping the movers and shakers of tomorrow.  

For more than 30 years, the community has come together to raise funds for the Big Canoe Chapel scholarship.  The program, which was started in 1982, was created to support the college aspirations of the town’s local high school students.  More than 2,000 graduates have been recipients of scholarships totaling more than $2 million dollars. This year alone, 131 students were awarded scholarship money.  Imagine the feeling of knowing that not only is your family standing behind you, but so is your community.  Well done, graduates.

It is this kind of active community involvement that makes the Big Canoe real estate development a desirable location for families with young children, or successful executives looking to retire or purchase a second home. It is here where executives can continue to share their core values and talent they attribute to their success. 

The reach of this compassionate community extends well beyond Big Canoe’s gates. Step into this community and you’ll be instantly embraced with open arms and warm hearts.  All are welcome at Big Canoe’s Chapel.  It is a multi-denominational congregation that is dedicated to supporting those in need both regionally and internationally. The Chapel offers programs specifically designed for families, children, couples, singles and new members. 

Investing in Big Canoe real estate is bound to be a promising asset for your future, your family and your finances. The Big Canoe Property Owners Association works diligently to maintain the value of this community for its owners and visitors.  Big Canoe’s POA is continuously looking at ways to invest in the growth and improvement of the area. Furthermore, its conservative management has proven to be very effective during recent economic downturn. 

Even with its sound fiscal focus, residents of Big Canoe have been able to enjoy all that this incredible development has to offer such as its lakes, mountain golf courses, award winning hiking trails and many other amenities. Big Canoe's events calendar is always filled with family friendly events.  From fitness and nature walks to you guessed it, canoeing lessons. There is plenty to choose from here.  Holidays are especially busy in Big Canoe. Perouse the Big Canoe's events calendar and you will wish you lived here to take advantage of all the activities. 

With a nearby outlet (North Georgia Premium Outlets) and plenty of shops and restaurants both inside and outside the gates, you can see why Big Canoe real estate is a desirable commodity among vacation home buyers, retirees and young families looking to relocate. Experience this one of a kind community for yourself. Now is the perfect time to explore what sets Big Canoe apart from the other largest master planned communities.
