Needs Attention

Thought it was a little pricey for what seemed to be an older outdated cabin. Had to buy air fresheners in order to stay. House smelled like it had been closed up for a long period of time. We reported a problem with the porch light switch (would not turn light off). Whoever came out to check it unscrewed the light bulb as a fix to the electrical issue. Not smart!

Gatlinburg stay

We actually didn’t stay at the cabin we rented because it had not been cleaned as that said it was. The manager moved us to a nicer cabin so we could get right in.

A mountain top getaway

This cabin was the perfect size for a couple and a small pup. The hot tub and view from the balcony were my favorite things about this cabin. The one major problem we encountered was the cleanliness of the cabin. It was clear that the cabin had not been cleaned. It seemed like the maid sprayed Lysol, made up the bed and called that "cleaning." The floors turned our socks black and there were many hairs all over the bathroom floor and in the shower. The cabin is old and in the woods, so there is always a chance of seeing bugs. We had a sleepover with a few carpenter ants but thankfully they aren't harmful. The cleanliness is a problem that can easily be fixed so hopefully no one will experience an unclean cabin like we did. The roads to the cabin are narrow and curvy, so keep that in mind. My Corolla made it up the roads very easily. The cabin is in a nice, quiet area. It is within walking distance to downtown, so traffic can be avoided, which is always a bonus. It was great for a weekend getaway.

Quiet Cabin

Cabin was as described. 4 of 5 stars for cleanliness because there seemed to be some mold in the bathroom. 3 of 5 for check in because I needed to drive somewhere else and provide info already given through vrbo again. The porch and hot tub were great.

Bathroom

look....i get its a cabin but if you pay $$ for a cabin i would belive that the black mold would be wiped away from the celing of the shower. Also the shower had some kind of water stain on it. If you would like picturs i have them on my phone and will email them to you. That is my only complaint. Other than that everythibg else was awesome!

DONT RENT THIS CABIN

We enjoyed our vacation greatly outside of the cabin!! However, the cabin was filthy! The bathroom walls were so moldy and the smell of mold was horrible. The ceiling had mold all over it and I was glad my daughter with asthma did not come with us because she would have went into an asthmatic fit. There was cob webs all over the place and the furnishing needed dusting. The windows had dead bugs all in them. The hot tub was right beside the next cabin where they came in and out and did not offer any privacy. The deck where the hot tub is was filthy and not swept. The bedding was old and faded out and made me not want to sleep in the bed. After we arrived we cleaned the cabin ourselves with Lysol wipes and sprayed the cabin with Lysol spray. If you're looking for a quite place, this is not the cabin for you because you can hear the traffic from the Gatlinburg strip. We vacation in Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge twice a year and always rent a cabin. I have never written a bad review and have always had a nice clean cabin. I will never rent from Aunt Bugs again. They really need to consider hiring a better cleaning crew and maintaining the property.

Good getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin is very quaint and has everything you need. It needs a smart TV so you can get things like Netflix when you come back at night or are just lying around. The parking space needs to be fixed. It wasnt a pretty site driving in and seeing yellow caution tape blocking the parking area. We had to park on the side by the torn down railroad ties.

Dog owners with dogs over 40lbs

If you are looking for a dog friendly stay, this place is it. I am a clean freak and this place was ok. I always bring a tub of Clorox wipes and wipe down whichever hotel or cabin we stay at to make my mind more at ease.

Puppy Love cabin review

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This cabin is cute, however, I can not give it a good review. The directions to this cabin given by the staff at Aunt Bug's needs to be corrected. It took us a bit to find this cabin based on these directions. On my day of checkout, I receive an email from a person with the Aunt Bug's staff thanking me for my positive review of my stay. I had not left any kind of review, good or bad, for this cabin or my stay. To me, this indicates bogus reviews left for this cabin rental agency. The hot tub did not function properly. Not much of an issue for us as we were not that interested in the hot tub. On our last night there, we noticed black mold growing on the ceiling in the bathroom. This explains why we had headaches during our time in the cabin. I notified the staff at Aunt Bug's, and was told they would make the maintenance staff aware. No question or concern were asked about our well-being. I have even told the gentleman from the bogus cabin review email about the situation, and still I have not heard anything back. One last thing, on the description about this cabin, it indicates this cabin is within walking distance of Gatlinburg. It is not a walk I would be comfortable making, especially at night. The best thing about our stay at this cabin is a black bear came to visit us at the cabin. So, be aware there are black bears around.
