Nice cabin – 1/8/2020 

This cabin was very nice, it has a run for your dog and is equipped for you to take your dog with you.

Mountain Top Camp – Mark B. 12/10/2019 

All in all a great location to stay. For the price the unit could use some updating and TLC/Maintenance. There was one electrical receptacle that didn't have a cover on it that I did bring to their attention. Place though was clean and warm. The pictures don't show that the porch on both the left and right side overlook valley's.

Tranquility for a week – Sarah I. 6/17/2019 

I absolutely lived our visit. Didn't do a lot of site seeing because we loved the cabin so much! Perfect for our family!

Vacation at Kick Back Shack 298 – Sam F. 6/10/2019 

Nice relaxing week. Enjoyed the views, close to town. Owner needs to make some updates on the property. For the amount we spent this property was far below its standards.

peaceful place – Vicki J. 10/10/2018 

we loved it. we get it because it has two king beds and a large kitchen. The view is fantastic, not too far from town. I would recommend it to a friend and hope they don't get our spot next year

Very enjoyable stay – Larry S. 5/25/2018 

We loved the time we spent in the cabin

Best Vacation ever! – Lance N. 9/10/2018 

Had a Great time at The Kick Back Shack! My kids keep telling me this was the Best vacation we have ever been son is a Titanic Fanatic so the Titanic Museum brought us to Pigion Forge not really knowing how much there is to do within a five to ten minute drive.Cabin was great spent way too much time on the 80s video game!Views from the deck were amazing Cant wait to go back!

Bugs cabins ag – Betty A. 10/23/2018 

the cabin was clean and was very nice and Quiet we really enjoyed our stay and would stay a Aunt bugs cabins again

Great Location! – Jillian B. 4/20/2019 

We stayed at this cabin for spring break 2019. We brought our dog and 2 kids 9 and 11. We had more than enough room it was perfect! The inside was very clean besides a few REALLY high cobwebs along the ceiling but that didn’t bother me. The traffic was not bad to anywhere we had to Gideon this location highly recommend that especially during spring break. Our whole family enjoyed the fooseball table although should be replaced- but the video game was fun! We had several tournaments with “Frogger” and fooseball! Now my only complaint would be the key- we had so much trouble getting the key out of the outside box. Hopefully they replaced that. Overall we enjoyed our stay and beds were very comfortable!!!

Great cabin, great location – Kelly P. 4/11/2019 

The cabin was everything we needed and wanted for our trip to the pigeon forge/gatlinburg area. Close to all attractions, yet outside the busy areas and remote.

Lovely – Kenda H. 1/5/2017 

Loved it, and so did our dog!
The emails and contracts were difficult. That process needs streamlining.

Relaxation trip – 2/9/2017 

We had a wonderful time at the cabin. Loved the location and isolation of the cabin. We have stayed at this cabin for several years. The new hard wood floor was a added bonus. Thanks to the owners for installing them. Shirley B.

Cabin review – Mike L. 3/29/2017 

Wonderful cabin, amazing views, peaceful and clean. Very impressed with all the cabin had to offer. The hot tub and fireplace were a couple of my favorites. It truly felt like i stayed at a home. Thanks! We'll return!!

My stay at kickback shack! – Brooke G. 7/16/2017

Truly Kickback to Prepare for the Holidays – Brenda S. 12/24/2014 

Excellent. Look forward to going back again.

Kickback Shack Indeed!!! – Patricia L J. 3/28/2015 

This home was an excellent pick for us. It was just the right size. We had 3 adults and 2 kids. We brought our dog and even she loved it. The fenced in pet area want s great and handy. The screened in porch was the Venter of our activity when at the house. The Kickback Shack was very comfy and cozy. We will visit it again.

The Kickback Experience – 6/1/2015 

Great place to stay. A few minor repairs are needed here and there but overall it was great. Some sanitizer in the Hot Tub and clearing Wasp nests from the swing would help.

The best vacation ever – Kimberly A. 4/14/2015 

The staff is wonderful so helpful and nice and courteous . The view in the cabin was beautiful. We so enjoyed waking up in the morning looking at the mountains . The cabin had everything u need to accommodate your stay and everything was ready for us when we arrived the air was on and the fridge was ready. The cabin had fresh sheets and didn't have a musty smell. We defiantly will be back.

Kickback Shack – Williwm S. 6/22/2015 

Property was very clean, somewhat outdated, overall very satisfied.

Great spot to relax – Keith F. 7/8/2015 

This was a great location and a nice little getaway. The outside has been refreshed and it looks great. The inside is a little dated and dusty, really dusty with cobwebs on the walls. Other than that it was a great vacation for my family. I would stay here again and I hope it would be cleaner and the slots machine works.

awesome place – Michael S. 8/26/2015 

really great

Fun time – 8/17/2015 

Had great visit. Good place to kickback! Close to everything

Ony place to stay in Pigeon Forge – Deltrice C. 10/11/2015 

We love the Kickback Shack. It is the place we try to stay every time we go to Pigeon Forge. We hope to stay there again next year. We stayed at another one in July but didn't like it at all. I would recommend it to anyone that appreciates a nice and clean cabin. It had everything we needed.

Mountain Trip with Mom, sister and niece – Denise O. 11/10/2015 

We really enjoyed the cabin, very well stocked with everything we needed in the kitchen. Beds were very comfortable, was real nice having a half bath off the living room. Great fireplace and hot tub. I do suggest a small step to get into hot tub.Very nice having TV's in the bedrooms. We loved how convenient it was to town. We will be back and I recommend this cabin, the wrap around porch was wonderful with plenty of furniture. Great view and very peaceful.

Winter at the Smokey – 1/14/2016

A Birthday Getaway – Bonnie R. 2/9/2016 

It was delightful in every aspect. We will use it again. It was clean with modern amenities. It was only 3 miles from town and easily accessible. The pizza place down the road was a great find.

Our family vacation at the kickback shack – Bobby R. 3/20/2016 

The staff at Aunt Bugs was very friendly. When we got to the cabin the view was awesome. The cabin was very clean inside and out. The kitchen area was larger than we expected and accommodated our family great. Love the download stairs bathroom. Loved sitting on the porch at night and cooking out for our family. I would recommend this cabin to anyone and we will be back to stay in it again.

Home away from Home – Sarika H. 4/9/2016 

It was my family and I first time ever coming to the mountains and staying at a cabin!! it was well worth the bucks.....everything was clean and in tact...not too far from everything....all we had to furnish was food while there. I was very pleased and will be returning....Everything was just as stated in the advertisement....Two thumbs up from me and my crew!!

Spring Break getaway – Jeffrey S. 4/6/2016 

We had fun at this cabin. Beautiful views of the mountains in the front and back of the cabin ( went during spring before leaves were on trees). the cabin had some general maintenance updates needed, but overall we had a great time.

nice clean cabin – Dorothy B. 7/25/2016

Views and tranquility – Candy L. 7/8/2016 

The best cabin experience I have had in a long time, the views were awesome, every night we could see the fireworks from Dolly Wood from the Porch, nice cool breezes and peace and quite of course nature sang to us every night too.

Ejoyable Stay – Darrell F. 8/26/2016 

Had a very nice stay. Will be back next year

wonderful location – Jimmie "kay" B. 9/13/2016 

Everything was great. Third time rented it.

Awesome – Michael F. 2/28/2013 

Thank you it exceed my expectation. I was celebrating my wife's birthday and it was wonderful.
The only down fall was the mice dropping ALL over the house. But besides that it was wonderful

Awesome Vacation Spot – Myra P. 5/9/2013 

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Kickback Shack. We were there 6 nights. It was cool the 1st couple of days, so the gas fireplace felt wonderful. The views from the cabin were magificant. The pet play area was great. Our dog loved the easy access from our bedroom to the play area. It was also nice to have the entire back parch screened in with doors on each side so she could run around on the porch without being on a leash. Of course, we utilized the hot tub and truly enjoyed the relaxation. We liked the visit so much, we are planning a trip next year and hope to stay in the same cabin!

We simply can not wait to get back to Kickback Shack! – 4/1/2013 

We have been coming to the Smoky Mountains for about 20 years. We always stayed at the same motel with two king-sized beds. It is a nice clean motel with friendly employees, a very good breakfast, and an inside pool. We usually go up to the mountains 3-4 times a year for a long weekend. It began with my mother, my husband, and myself. We began taking our grandson who lives with us about 8 years ago.
This year we decided to look into a cabin. As much as we always enjoy our trip, the cabin made our get-a-way like a brand new and deeper experience of what we are always needing and aiming for on these trips. Always before the motel was just where we went back to after the shows and other entertainments we went to while there. This time, going back to the Kickback Shack after our outings was like going back to another relaxing and absolutely peaceful haven. We loved our beautiful surround deck and cooked out while playing in the hot tub. On our first evening there a hawk swooshed down and plucked a squirrel up while we were sitting out on the porch. It was brutal in one way, but a glimpse of nature in the raw that still makes one feel like they have rolled back the time curtain into what our forefathers may have seen as an every day experience.
We have always looked forward to what we were going "to do" when we go to the Smokey Mountains. We are planning on coming back and our number one requirement is that we get the Kickback Shack. It made everything else more. Why did we wait so long to try this? The Busbys love the Kickback Shack in the Smoky Mountains.

vacation experience – Randy S. 8/29/2013 

i wasted 4 hours of my time trying to get the a/c fixed as i helped the a/c man to get it up and running..not what i wanted for vacation..i also got stung by bee's near the a/c unit!!!so it started off bad!!but overall love the location & the cabin!!we will be back next year

Upgrading "shack" to "cabin". – Don L. 6/16/2013 

We, spouse and two grandchildren, felt the location was superb and. The condition of the cabin was good to excellent. There were a few minor bumps and dings, but I suspect most homes fall into about the same category. We'd love to go back in the fall or early spring and really "kickback". No problems with " bugs " at all.

Wonderful Getaway – Debbie D. 7/24/2013 

Overall we were pleased with our stay at Kickback Shack. We were there over the 4th of July and enjoyed amazing fireworks from the porch. Cabin was clean and most amenities worked well. For a two bedroom cabin it was very spacious and could easily sleep 8 to 10 if you don't mind using floor space. We were disappointed in the entertainment that was advertised for the house. The slot machine, foosball table and karaoke machine didn't work. Turns out that we were there by ourselves after all but if the other guests had went with us we would have really been disappointed. We still fully recommend Aunt Bugs as we have used them many times over the years. This was probably our least favorite. Thanks for a great time!

Nice Chalet/ Great Location – Sandra S. 9/2/2013 

Loved this chalet.. Very close to everything.. Loved the place for your dog to go potty without having to leash it up.

kickback shack - – Paula R. 8/12/2013 

This was our 2nd year staying in this cabin, my only complaint is the housekeeping needs to pay attention to detail, bedroom nightstands need dusting pet food was still on the bathroom floor and cobwebs at entrance on chairs.location is great! We even saw a bear!!

Pleasurable relaxing and refreshing getaway – 8/15/2013 

We had a great time and really enjoyed our accommodations. The experience was very good and the accommodations were very nice and added to the experience. I would recommend Aunt Bugs to anyone and the Kickback Shack. Thanks for making our stay a very good one.

Kickback Shack – David B. 10/15/2013 

The cabin needs some TLC. Very clean but just little items - broken faucet handles, peeling wallpaper, worn padding on carpet on stairs (can feel tacks when walking) and most of all -non working slot machine and karoke machine, which is advertised in the cabin ad as admenities. Deck had cob webs on chairs and decorations. We did enjoy the stay at the cabin but feel added attention to the little things would make it more appealing. Very friendly staff and location. Beautiful views from deck of rental.

none – 9/30/2013 

none

Great Stay 2014 – Fran S. 3/10/2014 

Although this location is older than others we have stayed at in the past, it is really great. The view is spectacular, I love the wrap around porch and screened in room. The beds need some support but over all the stay was relaxing and we plan to stay at this location again if availalble.

Kickback for rest and relaxing – Brenda S. 5/20/2014 

Enjoyed the trip and would go back again when we go to the area.Very pleasant weekend.

– Brian Perunko 6/27/2019 

The cabin was in overall good shaped, however we were told it was ready and we could go ahead to it before 4, but when we arrived at 2 the cleaning crew was pulling in right behind us, which was no big deal we enjoyed sitting on the porch enjoying the view while they cleaned , only major concern is was that the hot tub was very dirty and in need of a good cleaning . But other than that it was a pleasant stay.

– Sam F. 6/10/2019

– Keith Fox 7/7/2015 

Friendly staff, the Kickback Shack needs a really good dusting a lot of cobwebs. The sleeper sofa wouldn't open and the slot machine and karaoke machine didn't work. We would rent again just wish the above mentioned things would be done. Otherwise our family had a relaxing and enjoyable vacation!
