Big Canoe is home to not one, not two, but three pristine lakes–ideal for swimming, boating, paddle boarding, and fishing. Cradled by mountains and towering trees, our lakes are equal parts serenity and activity. Cruise out on a boat rental from our Marina on Lake Petit or pick a spot along the shore to cast a line. To preserve the natural beauty and ambiance of the lake, only electric – powered vessels are permitted at Big Canoe.
As Big Canoe’s largest lake, Lake Petit covers 111 acres. In addition to a variety of indigenous fish, Petit is well stocked with rainbow trout. Get all the gear you need from The Shack at the Big Canoe Marina. The serene Lake Sconti is perfect for leisurely fishing, and Lake Disharoon is the go-to spot for swimming and recreation.
Lake Petit’s 1oo foot deep water is known for its abundance of rainbow trout with the average trout running about 2 lbs. Bass, bluegill, crappie and brim are also known to swim the waters of Big Canoe’s Lake Petit and Lake Sconti. Permits are required for anyone 12 or over prior to fishing and can be purchased at the Marina. Call The Marina at Lake Petit at 706-268-3303.
