Communication was great. Cabin was nice, especially for a last minute booking. Hot tub worked but isn’t in the best shape. It was great for our quick stay, though! Couldn’t get fireplace to work, but we also didn’t contact anyone about it. I’m sure if we had, they would have taken care of it right away.

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.

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 cabin itself was decent, but we were unable to use the hot tub because the water was just absolutely disgusting. I wanted to drain and refill it because it's a very small tub anyway, but there was no hose. Aside from that, the cabin is advertised on Vrbo as being 100 yards from the center of downtown Gatlinburg, and if you click on the "view on map" widget, the little cabin icon indicates that it is located across the street from the aquarium, which is why I chose it. I drive a pretty large truck and wanted to be able to walk everywhere, but the cabin is actually a 15-20 minute drive from the main strip (depending on traffic). They would not give me any details or reveal the actual location of the cabin until the afternoon of check-in after I had already been on the road for several hours driving there. It seems as though they withheld the location until the last minute because they were being intentionally deceptive about the distance from the strip. The proximity to the strip and the hot tub were the reason I chose thus cabin, so I was disappointed that both of those were a bust. I wish I had taken a picture of the hot tub, but as my girlfriend and I stood there in our swimsuits and opened the cover, it was so disgusting that we put the cover back on and wrote it off for the week.

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!

Cosy cabin but, needs maintenance and cleaning

We arrived at the property in the dark. The following day we noticed dog hair all over the comforter that hadn't been checked. The balcony has historical cobwebs and all the chairs needed cleaned and sweeped by me. Aunt Bugs sent a cleaner but it's disappointing that these things weren't noticed. There's dust and cobwebs beside the cooker and on the curtain rails. It was nice to have the hot tub but only a couple of the jets were working. Some of the cutlery was lacking and felt there could have been items like a corkscrew available. The cabin is cosy and bed is comfy but these things would put me off staying again.
