Perfect cabin

I can’t say enough about this cabin. It was in a perfect location close to downtown but yet you felt like you were out by yourself. Quiet, cozy and convenient to so many activities. We so much enjoyed the creek behind the cabin and watching all the wildlife. The screened porch was Hugh and perfect for dinners.the inside had everything needed plus some. Cozy beds, comfortable furniture and plenty of room. Quiet and peaceful neighborhood was great for walks and exploring downtown. I would definitely rent again. Price was awesome compared to all you get. Everyone should have this place on your bucket list. Outstanding!

Peaceful

Cute historical cabin built originally in the 1800s was transferred to this location next to the river. The kitchen windows and screened in porch were excellent places to watch or sit and listen to the relaxing noise. Loved the location.

Riverside Charm!

Cozy cabin with so much character nicely situated by the river. We enjoyed the serenity of the screened back porch most of all, where we found ourselves most of the time during our stay. This was the cleanest cabin we have ever stayed in while visiting Gatlinburg over the past 17 years as a family! Great location to use the local trolley system to travel to downtown Gatlinburg. There is a trolley stop roughly a 1/4 mile from the cabin that would be easy to access, however we chose to drive to the Welcome Center just a couple miles up the road to park and ride from there to eliminate some walking on the chance we made larger purchases while in Gatlinburg. We loved our stay here and will definitely stay again 10/10!

Beautiful Rambling water view

Picture decieving! Bushes desperately need trimmed! Porch light blares! Either install a new screen on front or remove old hinges! There is a beautiful tree view out front plus would add a breeze! Immediate smell when entering! Furniture is just plain wore out except couch! Rug smells and is very dirty and dingy! Lighting is old and yellow! Water stain patches in ceiling very unappealing! Bathrooms need exhaust fans as well as cleaned up caulking, etc. Bedrooms are nice sized! Sheets were scratchy and stiff not sure but smelled like bleach. Bed spread is very dingy! Blanket was gross barely covers the king size bed u litterally have to sleep in the middle to stay covered and I am little so is my other half. The back patio is nice to look at the beautiful water. Get rid of the nasty sticky plastic table cloth with a hole in it! Also why is there a empty log holder back there taking up extra room? There is one outside! Rocking chairs are nice.

Nice getaway

This cabin is just outside of downtown Gatlinburg. We were right on a river with no hotel ahead of us, so it felt secluded and peaceful. Cabin was in great condition, working hot tub, and cool ac.

July '23 Stay

The cabin is as advertised, very nice, and an amazing location. However, the property check-in process is long and invasive. Additionally, the property manager refused to give me the cabin address until around 11AM the day of check-in. The cabin was clean but needed more towels - there were only 2 "beach" towels, but the hot tub is a 4 person. Overall, we had a great time and we would definitely stay here again!

Rustic Cabin

The cabin is located near downtown Gatlinburg, very convenient. The water that runs behind the cabin was beautiful to look at and listen too from the back porch however it was risky trying to access as the embankment was very very steep (the rock stairs were steep as well) and the water was swift. Not feasible to take my 5-year old grandson down to the water but several people fished from the embankment. We ended up going to another location to swim and skip rocks. Overall the cabin was very clean, easy check-in, great location and we had a great time while on vacation.

Nice clean cabin. Neighbors were doing maintenance making impossible to sit outside. Was loud sitting inside, so much for a relaxing retreat. 3 solid days! Would you want to pay 1500$ to stay inside be awoke at 7 am, not able to sit outside, unable to walk dog in grass?

Nice

The cabin is nice. The river view itself is great. But there are old buildings on the opposite side. It’s unfortunate that they don’t let you use the fireplace in April. It would have been nice to have that option since it was a bit cold during our stay. The beds are comfortable. The kitchen has everything you need. I would go back.

Comfy cabin, beautiful setting

We loved this very clean, very comfy cabin right on the beautiful Pigeon River. The back porch is a lovely place to sit and take in the beauty of the river. The owner brought fire wood and fire starters for the fire place, which we enjoyed every evening. The location was an easy walk into downtown Gatlinburg.

Great location and very cozy.

We walked everywhere due to the great location. Being right on the river was a bonus, although we didn’t find time to fish we did get to watch a couple otters catch some fish. It was a little chilly when we went so the hot tub room was a little cold but we made due, would be nice if there was a heater or blinds to pull down over the screened porch area.

Pure Relaxation

This is a wonderful property and in the perfect location for visiting the Gatlinburg area. Walking distance to downtown, but away enough that you're away from the noise. And the sound of the stream behind the cabin is perfect. The cabin is adorable and so comfortable. We included a day trip to the Biltmore House and the drive was easy and the scenery was beautiful. We will recommend this property to friends and family and will be back again!!

I really enjoyed staying at this cabin close to the creek, and walking or rolling (I use a walking/chair since my traumatic brain injury in 2018) distance to the strip and restaurants & shops, etc! And the fact that the unit it is pet friendly made it someplace I'd love to visit again!!

Biggest hassle ever!

First, the property itself is great. The house was clean, had ample kitchen supplies, and a lovely screened in back porch. It was only missing shampoo in the bath. Within walking distance of downtown Gatlinburg. BUT, dealing with Aunt Bugs was the biggest hassle I have ever encountered with a mgt company. They REQUIRE that you take a photo of yourself holding your driver's license AND a photo of your credit card and then email it to them! Also, the way they ask you to fill out the rental agreement is archaic to say the least. I had never encounterd such foolishness. So, we would definitely stay at the cabin again, but we won't so long as Aunt Bugs is managing it.
