Budro's Bungalow
Overall enjoyed stay but cabin needed some maintenance (broken shelves in fridge, table chair leg almost feel off, outlet in downstairs bath wasn't working, etc) and could have been stocked better to make stay more enjoyable (incorrect bed size listed in downstairs bedroom, no lamps in bedrooms, only 2 chairs on porch, kitchen has very little counter space, etc). Parking not great for 2 large vehicles.

Budro's Bungalow Vacation home.
The home was very clean. Just setting up the home with a view of the mountains was beautiful. Closer to restaurants. Close to the Wilderness, where we actually saw some bears and deer would recommend this place to stay to all.

Great Location
We had a little adult vacation and the cabin is exactly as it was advertised overlooking the Smoky Mountains. The little Townsend was a nice little town that provided plenty of places to eat and hang out at. Be sure to go to visit the Tuckaleechee Caverns it is a beautiful cave had a stream running through it and an underground waterfall. The National Park is near by as well but be sure to give yourself plenty of time if you plan on hiking as the traffic going through the park is congested with people not respecting the rules of not pulling over and just stopping in the middle of the road holding up traffic. The location was also close enough to Gatlingburg and Pigeon Forge. We will definitely be back to explore more!

The view was breathtaking, absolutely amazing! The cabin was clean and very comfortable. Pet friendly. Great location, 9 miles from Pigeon Forge and 12 miles from Gatlinburg. There are great little shops and restaurants 5 minutes from the cabin. It’s great for a couple or 4 people to stay comfortably. Highly recommended if you want to stay in a quite place and relax and enjoy your stay!

Visiting Cades Cove
We came into the area to visit our daughter doing her internship at Cades Cove and needed a place close to the park that allowed dogs. The place was perfect. Everything was as portrayed on the posting. No restrictions on dogs, which was great. The place has an incredible view. Some features are a little dated, but that is to be expected and did not create any issue. The main floor bed has a hard mattress. The house was very comfortable. We were lucky that no one was in the other cabins. The cabins are not right on top of each other but they are close. However, they are staggered so that makes it feel like the space is bigger. The road up to the cabins is very narrow and a steep incline in a couple spots. Overall, a great stay and we would stay again.
