We enjoyed our second stay at Ladybug as well as the first which was two years ago. We did not take advantage of the new firepit as it was a little wet and we were busy. We appreciate the lovely view from the porch. This home is well suited to three generations of family. If you have a compact vehicle, it's going to be rough getting up the drive. We could not make the TVs work, but we could plug in via our tablets and computers. The price is right.

Great Stay
Our family, 10 all together, had a wonderful time staying at Lady Bug. Close enough to town but far enough to be quiet and no traffic! So beautiful at night and we gathered at the amazing fire pit everyday for good conversation & watching wildlife. Table in kitchen let out so we could play games and have dinner all together. Downstairs game room was a huge plus. Highly recommend staying here if you want out of hustle & bustle of downtown areas. Dollywood 2 hours away and a snow tube adventure at Scaly Mountain was perfect entertainment for the grandkids!

Remote quiet mountain get away.
Enjoyable weekend get away. We enjoyed the home with our kids and grands. We had plenty of room for our small group. Did not even use the downstairs level and still had loads of room and fun. Kitchen well furnished and we needed for nothing. Gas stove was nice, fridge was spacious.
Bedrooms were comfy and we enjoyed our stay.
Real nice fire pit out back and was nice in the evenings sitting around the fire.
The drive up to the house is not as spooky as we expected at first. Take it easy and steady, and you will be fine.
Only issue I would mention, the main floor bathroom has zero window covers. (Clear glass). Ensuring no one is outside on the porch is required before showering. Or just don’t use that shower.

Great weekend
We had a wonderful time at Ladybug Cottage. It was very accommodating, and fit our needs well. Accessing the cottage was a bit challenging! We must not have seen the part of the listing that said it was at the top of a steep drive. Very quiet and secluded though!

The family decided to do a quick getaway and chose this property. We did day trips to Bryson City, Gatlinburg, Cherokee and Helen Ga. We really enjoyed the accommodations.

Peaceful Refuge from the World
The house is beautiful and very spacious. 3 levels and a wraparound porch on the mid-level. Plenty of room for 8 adults and one child to spread out and relax. The porch and the game room were the main gathering areas. The kitchen was fully stocked for a large group.
Very peaceful and relaxing with no other houses close by.
The property made you feel you were a thousand miles from anything, but activities were actually close by. River tubing and gem stone mining were just a short drive away.
I would recommend this property for anyone wanting a peaceful vacation. My family was talking about re-booking again before we had even ended our stay.

Beautiful setting
This home has a large secure porch perfect for dogs and children. The home is very well equipped. Four generations were well accommodated with baths and rooms. The location was a tad remote for our purposes, but the drive in is scenic. If you are accustomed to king sized beds, there’s a bit of adjustment.

Christmas 2021
We had a great time staying at Lady Bug. Ms. Diane called us to make sure we checked in good. Even though it was Christmas Eve and I messaged her she was very polite and helpful! We had 3 children (younger then 7) and a toddler and even though I try my best to keep my 3 behaving well and with their hands off things. My 6 year old moved something around and my toddler broke something but she is very understanding if we let her know. In the future if we once again travel to the area and if Ms. Diane allows us to rent her home again we would love too.

Great mountain retreat
This property was perfect for our family! There was plenty of room in the house, the children had fun outside exploring. The location was also convenient, grocery store not far. We went gem mining which the boys loved. Arrive in the daytime since there are a few turns in the road. I would definitely recommend this property and would not hesitate to stay there again!

Very secluded and private rental.
The home has everything you need, and more. Note to others considering this rental: We had no issues using Maps/Waze/Google for directions. I highly suggest you arrive during the day as it is very hard to see at night if you’re not familiar with the area. The host was responsive and the home comfortably accommodated our family of 6 adults and two small children. Two adults and kids stayed downstairs, a couple had the room on the main floor and one adult occupied each of the two bedrooms upstairs. Plenty of room for all. This property is definitely secluded and rustic but has amenities that you’ll need to have a nice stay. We enjoyed the home and all the little excursions during our family vacation.

Georgeous, but Easily Fixable Issues
The beds were remarkably comfortable! Awesome mattresses.
Although beautiful, virtually inaccessible. Directions missing critical information: watch for the ladybug sign & follow its direction, as I ignored it, went the wrong way, and nearly got 2 vehicles stranded. Just about everybody names their lease place these days; I wish I had known months earlier when I made the reservation that its name was critical to finding it.
Master bathroom has no blind & you have to appear naked in the window directly facing the porch to take a shower.
Since this home is shared and not for lease exclusively, I expected personal belongings, however, it was way too cluttered; stuff in the way in the master BR and in the kitchen. I accidentally broke one of three different sized ladybugs that go together by bumping it with my boot on my way from the front door to the front porch
The runner at the top of the stairs has to be removed for the master BR door and the basement door to operate. The runner in the kitchen is curled & a trip hazard. I tripped on it three times.
I hated that outdoor lighting is uncontrollable. One light shines directly into the master. I frequently want to turn off outdoor lighting to view the stars and everything clearly.
If part of the same property, it would be a BIG plus to cut a trail to the top of the hill for a view.

Perfect for our Family Reunion
Due to COVID, my family hadn’t gotten together in a while. So, my wife and I, along with my younger brother and sister-in-law, my daughter and son-in-law and their two kids, as well as my son and daughter-in-law were planning to visit my mother and youngest brother who both live in Franklin, NC. My wife and I have two small dogs that we’re unable to board due to one of them having a medical condition that needs near constant attention. I knew my mother’s house couldn’t accommodate all of us, so I took to VRBO to find a place that could. When I came across the Lady Bug Estate, everyone agreed that it looked like the ideal place to stay. We found the house to be well off the beaten path, so much so, we might have gotten lost had we not followed the detailed directions provided by Diane, the home owner. While you don’t actually need four or all wheel drive to access the property, having it will make you feel a little more at ease as you drive up the gravel driveway. Upon our arrival, we found the house to be clean and comfortable. Aside from a few cob webs here and there (to be expected in the woods and mountains), the place was clean. There was plenty of room for all of us. The house is large enough so that it gave us plenty of room to gather and spend time together as a family, while also giving each couple their private space. Being from Florida and south Alabama, we liked sitting out on the porch talking and catching up while also enjoying the cooler temperatures and lower humidity. My son and son-in-law and grandson enjoyed playing pool in the evenings. Just a couple of words of advice if you’re thinking about renting this property . . . If you are traveling with a large group and plan to stay for more than just a few days, you might want to consider bringing some extra linens (towels & washcloths). Our group of 10 stayed 4 days and we had to wash a load of towels and washcloths halfway through our stay. You might also want to bring along some extra trash bags, paper towels and dish detergent. Our group quickly used up the supplied amount and had to replace them. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at Lady Bug Estate and would definitely consider visiting again on a future family reunion. A big THANK YOU to Diane for sharing her lovely home with us.

Family Christmas
My sister and I met her son, his wife and their three college age children to spend the 2 nights before Christmas. We had plenty of space and bathrooms. It was furnished with most things we needed and we were very comfortable. I took a small Christmas tree and ornaments and we had snow on
Christmas Eve, which added to the beauty of the property.

Overall, we were satisfied with our stay
The home is located on a beautiful mountain and is very secluded which worked well for our family. The home owner was very helpful when booking as well as being available to answer questions during our stay. It has plenty of room for a bigger family with the game room being a big selling point (pool table, darts, large TV for movie nights and board games). The only watch out is that this home is a second home for the owner which means that it is fully stocked with everything to include furniture, novelties, and very little room in the kitchen to store any of your own food or supplies. We used plastic tubs to keep all of our dry foods and snacks in during our stay due to no cabinet space. All in All, it was a beautiful home in a great location that worked well for our vacation.

My family and I had a great time. It wasn’t to far from Cherokee Harris Casino. Maybe around a 30 minute drive. We did the casino thing Saturday. Had a great time. We love the game room at the house on bottom floor. I recommend this house and we will be staying here again. Thank you so much Diane.
