About the host

Hosted by Mark & Laura Muir

Host profile image
Laura and I are both from the Midwest. We grew up in South Florida. We have traveled all around the US with our 2 children. We love how nice and helpful the residents of North Georgia are.

Why they chose this property

We've traveled to this area of Georgia many times in the last several years and loved it. We decided to purchase a home in Big Canoe after we toured the community in the Fall of 2013. We were very impressed so we decided to buy a home that we could use as a vacation home.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with this renovated home when we saw it was available online. Once we toured it in person, we were hooked. We loved the contemporary craftsman style and the mountain view when you open the front door is spectacular.
