Not recommended for more than 2 people. The sofa bed is unsleepable. They only left 5 towels and 2 washcloths for a 4 night stay with 4 adults. Please trim the branches on the tree in the parking spot. It will scratch trucks. Other than that the stay was OK. We did see a bear behind the cabin one day.

The room didn’t feel clean and the carpet was filthy with mud stains.they had no closet to put your clothes in as the closet was filled with air mattress, old spreads, junk all over the floor with no closet bar to hang clothes. Fireplace wouldn’t work and was promptly reported but nothing was done. Cheap but you get what you pay for . It’s better to pay more for something nicer with better customer service. We will never do an aunt bug property again!

We had to fill the hot tub with cold water. Then wait until the next day to heat. The hot tub doesn't work and the filter was gross. The tub inside works but you run out of hot water. The water heater runs out hot water. We had to heat water on the stove to fill it. It took a hour heating water. The cabin is dusty. My sinuses were a mess. This was not romantic.

Cute cabin in fantastic tranquil setting. This cabin is close enough to downtown Gatlinburg but it’s set in a really cool arts and crafters community so very quiet and unique! The cabin is rustic and quirky but meets your needs! Unfortunately the hot tub which was the main reason I chose this cabin over others was not in proper working order. We did tons of hiking and really needed this ! Aunt Bugs management eventually corrected this problem by setting us up in another cabin. So if a hot tub is important to you, make sure you call ahead to ensure it’s working!

Great place to stay

We loved the location. Easy to get to down town. Some of the jets in hot tub did not work but it was hot and we did not let this ruin the vacation. Jacuzzi worked well but filled up slow. Again we were ok with this. The views from our frint porch were awsome. Would definitely stay here again

Only real complaint was that the indoor hot tub/jacuzzi didn't want to actually stay warm very well at all. It was a good cabin and served its purpose well

My girlfriend and I stayed here for our anniversary weekend and had an incredible experience! The cabin was very clean and location is very nice if you wanna be a short drive away from the attractions but away from the big crowds. We absolutely plan to stay here again!

Nice Open Floor Plan

Great setup for my wife and myself. The open floor plan was great and cozy. It was a great retreat for a weekend getaway. The location was convenient to Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and the National park. Hosts were very responsive to any questions and requests we had during our stay.

Perfect for Us

We stayed here for our 10th wedding anniversary and our first trip to Gatlinburg. Once we found our bearings, the location was excellent. Free trolley should be advertised more in the listing...we used it a bunch. Cozy place. We felt safe and comfortable.
