Good stay! But could be great

We enjoyed our stay overall, just a few things I would add that would make it great. 1. No cleaning products were accessible to use, only paper towels. 2. Odd smell coming from the bottom level, wasn’t horrible but noticeable. 3. Lots of dead bugs on windows and outside on the deck. Not a big deal but could be blown off with a leaf blower. Would certainly stay again regardless.

Family and I rented this cabin for a family vacation and we were excited about being back in the area. The host contacted us a few days prior to our trip, informing us that there was an issue with the hot tub (that they were already working on getting fixed). Upgraded us to another one of their cabins (Fort Knox) free of charge and we absolutely loved it. Communication from Aunt Bug’s was very good and they took care of all our needs. Everything was clean. The new location was exactly as described on the website, and the host’s response time to our questions was very fast. We honestly couldn’t ask for a better host to rent from. Next year when we visit the area again, we will definitely rent from Aunt Bug’s.

Okay but not the greatest cabin we stayed in

Our group was all adults. We have been coming and staying in Gatlinburg for over 20 years. This was one of our least favorite cabins and would not stay here again. Pros: ☆cabin floor plan is great for 2 couples. ☆this cabin has a lot of seating. Couches, chairs, etc ☆cabin furniture was in good shape and comfortable. Cons: ☆pictures and description of the view is very misleading. 10 being the best cabin view we have had i would rate as a 2 max. We were expecting a great mountain view. Parking area misleading. Parked directly in front of steps out full size titan truck was almost in the road. ☆cabin was not as secluded from other cabins as pictures make if look. ☆basic of basic kitchen supplies. Example there ŵere not large mixing bowls big enough to make scrambled eggs. ☆ management company was easy to contact but not impressed with the servicing of the cabin. Called to report 1 toilet that was running nonstop. One that was clogged and no plunger in the cabin, hot tub temp buttoms would only let you turn the temp down. Also hot tub water was dirty ☆lots of trash in the woods around the property. ☆ in ice or snow the last 2-3 miles to this cabin even with 4 wheel drive would be challenging Due to location, what this cabin offers compared to others and cost compared to others. This is not a cabin we would rent again.

Comfortable Cabin

We were very pleased with the cleanliness of the cabin. The key is that they keep the cabin free of unnecessary items that would just collect dust. The wood is smooth and finished so dust does not collect. Bravo! The key was that it is pet friendly. There was no evidence of past pets damaging anything in the house. Our dogs loved the balconies, and unless you have a tiny dog, the railings are close enough together that they are safe (with supervision). All kitchen items were in working order. Bathrooms were fine. Getting there is a bit challenging. It is best to have a navigator with you in the front seat, and unless you are very comfortable with the area, arrive when there is still daylight. After a few times up and down the mountain however, you get to know your way. This was a nice experience for my family. Ober Gatlinburg is just a short drive away. Very convenient.

Do NOT waste your money on this cabin!!!

Online this cabin is beautiful. It was messy, ran down and unsafe. I had to clean two dog accidents from the bottom level as soon as we arrived, our propane tank for gas grill was broken, Aunt Bug's refused to deliver us another one - we ended up buying a tank so we could grill - dish washer leaks THRU THE FLOOR onto the bottom level. Looked under the sink and it has old water damage from this leak and they have tried to hide!! Take your family and money elsewhere ... you'll thank me later!!!!!!

Honeymoon gone bad!!

So we chose Gatlinburg to get married instead of Vegas because we thought it would be nice to stay close to home, so we rented a cabin. Couldn’t check in until after 5pm had to check out by 10am on check out day. TV remote wouldn’t control the TV, so no TV the first night or second day, scratch in the TV, master bedroom door busted, pilot light turned off of gas logs, tears in the couch’s, hair in the shower, no chlorine in the hot tub, water was low and was told to add water ourselves and when we told them there was no hose told us to turn the breaker off. Front step was broken and we almost fell every time we left out. Did I mention we had contractors knock on our door because they had a order to cut trees down on the side of the house? No parking at all. Will NEVER stay here again!! Oh did I mention this was our honeymoon?!

Great getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property was fantastic. House was clean, well furnishes. The view was spectacular. Follow the directions provided by management because Google maps will take you multiple ways up and down the mountain. Their directions were plain and simple and most direct. The drive up to the house is a bit unnerving after dark and especially in the rain with oncoming traffic, but we had the best tome and made it part of our adventure.

Looks Good From the Outside

The check in process was very simplified and nice. Cabin is very pretty from the outside and great views. This cabin was very unclean and did hinder our stay. The jacuzzi tub in the room starting spitting out flakes of gunk, the outside hot tub smelled and had specks of black goo. Showers have mold growing in them, we had to wash every dish due to remaining food particles left on them, and the comforter had a stain that looked like blood. Not sure it’s worth the price for the off season also not quite sure why we needed to pay the cleaning fee for such a dirty place to stay. We will not be renting again from Aunt Bugs.

Solid Review - Please Read

I read many previous reviews and some people can't be pleased, so sift through those reviews. House...Very well laid out. Plenty of room for our party of four adults. Great views ! Very close to Ober, so your high up. Also, very close to downtown Gatlinburg; probably just under10 min drive. Very convenient. Cleanliness...Please note you are renting a house in the woods, not a hotel room at Four Seasons. They have done a great job keeping property clean, but remember, you are in the woods. Drive To Chalet...This is very true from other posts. The drive is very steep and could be a frightening for someone not used to it, but just keep it slow and you will be fine. Bears...You will more than likely see bears. Always keep your car door locked and always take all food out of your car at all times. Recommendation... I highly recommend this property!!!!! Nelson

Mountain View

Check-in process was smooth with no issues. You're pretty high into the mountains a lot of Hills to climb. Experience first and counters with bears which was not bad. The only issue with the property was pull-out sofa downstairs with pool table is need a new mattress appears to have blood stains on it and there were rat droppings on the mattress as well other than that the Quinn in this over the cabin was excellent. Would rent this property again pending they get a new mattress for the sofa downstairs.
