Great location. Very convenient to walk to the strip. Home was a great vacation getaway. WiFi was a little slow, so plan for that. O

Great cabin! Walkable distance to downtown, though there is a climb but it isn’t horrible! The house was beautiful, and our hosts were very accommodating. Definitely would stay again!

Thank you for the awesome Review Kenneth! We are so glad you enjoyed the cabin and all its amenities. It really is a beautiful house. We hope to see you again soon in the Smokies!!
Very easy check in and very welcoming. House was very clean and in a great location to where walking downtown was a ease. Host was very polite and inquiring if we needed anything to let them know
Christmas Wonderland! Our family came before Christmas to celebrate together. The entire house was beautifully decorated for Christmas. Tons of space, many bedrooms & bathrooms, it is a perfect family getaway home. We walked downtown every day and never worried about traffic and parking. The house has so many luxury features like fireplaces in most bedrooms and towel warmers. We enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit. The huge dinning table was fantastic. We already want to come back.

Water pressure in main bathroom sinks Downstairs bathroom tub very slow to drain they stood in waterMouse dropping in kitchen drawersHorrible septic smells on 3 occasions i called no one did anything to correct drainage or smellPorches were very dirty with debris I had to spend 1 hr cleaning that i would thought cabin would have been checked and made ready for our stay. 8,000 for 1 week i would have assumed it would be in top shape.
The cabin is amazing. Beautiful kitchen equipped with all of the things you need to cook. Very comfy couch in the living room and additional couches by the dinning area. Huge dinning table for the whole family. Very wellDecorated rooms with comfortable beds. The hot tub was so relaxing. 10000/10 recommend this cabin to anyone.
The house was beautiful, spacious, and very comfortable. We did have an issue with a sewage odor that would become strong at times. We reported the smell when we first arrived because it was overwhelming. They said that someone would come out and check. The smell was consistent during our entire stay - sometimes it would fade and sometimes it would cause us to leave the home. We could not use the lower bedroom because of the odor. The home is lovely and I would like to stay here again - if they can get the sewage smell eliminated.
Perfect location for a quick Smokey Mountain vacation! Walking distance to downtown and the aquarium! Had pizza delivered and enjoyed the house one night too! A beautiful home with everything we needed!

Thank you for your kind words Traci! We are so happy you enjoyed your stay with us. We are looking forward to hosting you all again in the future!
The house is great, the location to everything is walkable, and Aunt Bugs was very on top of everything.
The only thing I would change is the 10am checkout, with all the people and kids we had it was tight and the house was kept clean the whole time. It was a great stay!
Quality space for bathing sleeping cooking eating visiting. Wonderful location walking distance to main Gatlinburg. For the cost I would have preferred a cleaner property.
We usually stay up in the mountains but this was a shorter trip so the location was great because you’re right in town. In less than 2 minutes you’re at the light to go towards downtown Gatlinburg/ the National Park or go toward Pigeon Forge.
Lovely home, great layout, and easy check-in. House was a short ten-minute walk from downtown and we saw bears in the yard nearly every day - including a momma and her two cubs.
We loved everything about the property… the location was in walking distance to town. The house had EVERYTHING you could possibly think of to make your stay enjoyable. Communication was great.
Property was very nice for a group of 10. Parking is plentiful for many cars, the beds are comfy, the kitchen is huge. The basketball court and hot tub were a great way to end the evenings. Overall I would highly recommend this property. I would book again!
Perfect house for a group of 4 couples. Everyone had a comfortable room and private bathroom. The location was very close to downtown Gatlinburg. We were able to walk to town and avoided the traffic. Everyone loved it.
What a wonderful place to spend Christmas! This home is beautiful and so spacious. Perfect for a large group. Aunt Bug's is great and responds quickly. The decorations were gorgeous. Being able to walk to town was a great feature!
Cabin/house was beautiful, clean, bigger than it looks in the pictures. The second refrigerator came in handy and there were an abundance of extra blankets/pillows which was nice. The location was perfect and allowed for quick trips to things like the strip, Pigeon Forge and the grocery. Will likely book this house again in the future!
