Please be aware that this cabin is up a steep road and may be inaccessible by a non-4-wheel drive vehicle in icy/snowy/wet conditions. It may require a 4-wheel drive vehicle at all times of the year due to wet roads.
We do not accept pets in any of the cabins without specific written approval from management. Only those dogs that have specific and formal training as a SERVICE dog will be allowed in our cabins. Emotional support animals are not accepted.
IMPORTANT: Out of respect for the holidays and our employees, we do NOT allow ANY check-ins or outs on Thanksgiving Day or Christmas Day

Fireplaces: *On During: October 1st - April 1st
Common Concerns: *Road Conditions: Some of our cabins are on steep, narrow, curvy, mountain roads. If you are concerned about road conditions to get to a cabin, please feel free to ask us! None of our cabins requires a 4-wheel drive under normal weather conditions, but some do in inclement weather. *TV & WiFi: We do have TVs and WiFi in most of our cabins. There are times when heavy cloud cover, weather systems, mountains, or trees will cause problems with the signals. We always want our guests to have the comforts they want on vacation, but there are times we cannot control this problem. *Pests & Wildlife: Here in the Smoky Mountains, we have lots of native bugs and wildlife. All of our cabins are treated for pests, but there are times you will find bugs or even have trouble with bugs. Fall/Winter is ladybug season in the Smokies, and these little buggers are attracted to heat, meaning your cabin and every other one out there that is warm! They will swarm to the cabin, and you'll probably see them alive/dead on windowsills, in vents, etc. Rest assured that your cabin has regular pest control and is professionally cleaned, including bug removal, before and after your stay. However, these bugs come back right away, and unfortunately, there is nothing that can be done about them until the season passes. Please never feed, taunt, or approach any wildlife. This is their home, and we are the visitors. *There are no refunds for storms or power outages. If there is a power outage, there will be no water and potentially no heat. Storms can also make roads impassable, so if a storm is in the forecast during your reservation, come prepared with water and non-perishable food, etc.
FEES: The management company of this cabin charges a $20 per stay Damage Waiver Fee to every customer. It is automatically included in your rate. This covers our guests for up to $350 worth of accidental damage should damage occur during their stay. If damage occurs to the cabin, furnishings, etc, please report it to management as soon as possible so that the damage can be repaired. You may opt out of paying the $20 damage waiver fee by putting down a $350 REFUNDABLE damage deposit.
✨ Peace of Mind & Travel Insurance: I want your stay to be stress-free and enjoyable. Please note that this home has a strict cancellation policy. Because life can be unpredictable, we encourage all guests to purchase travel insurance for extra peace of mind. This way, you can book with confidence knowing you’re protected no matter what comes up. This can be done at www.insuremytrip.com where you can pick the coverage that suits your situation.

Hi Ethan, Thank you for your positive review! We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed the location of our business. We strive to provide a peaceful and convenient experience for all of our customers.
Enjoyed our stay! Quaint and cozy cabin. Well stocked for our needs! Definitely steep roads getting into property, but we managed fine without 4WD at this time of year.

We had a great stay. Wish we could have stayed longer. The cabin was perfect. It was very clean. Loved the fire place and the vaulted ceiling. Bed was comfy. Enjoyed being in the tree tops while having my morning coffee. Cathy is quick to respond. Thank you for a great experience.

Thank you for your kind words! We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay and that the cabin was perfect. We are especially pleased that you enjoyed the fire place and the vaulted ceiling, as well as the comfy bed. We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again soon!
Stayed in town for a Bronco event, cabin was super close, just outside of Townsend. It was just as described. Make sure you follow the directions they send you and don’t follow GPS. Definitely a steep incline to get to the cabin but worth the drive up for sure!!

Thank you for the tips! We are happy to share that all of the flooring at Piper's Place has been reinforced, so there is no structural concerns at this point. We will address the other issues you shared. We are glad you enjoyed the location and felt relaxed during your stay! That is always our goal!
Everything was great, other than the parking was very steep downward hill. Minor inconvenience with hot tub not warming up past 90 degrees but nothing major at all.
It is a steep driveway. It would have been nice if there was a level spot other than 2feet in front of steps. The hot looked like it wasn't clean. I used it it was all right . I will not stay there again. Driveway to steep for me.

Yes this cabin does have a steep driveway. It is stated in the ad on a couple occasions and is included in just about every review. It should not be a surprise to anyone. Our hot tubs are cleaned and treated between every single guest. We are glad that you were able to use it and enjoy the space.

Cute, but bad customer service.
The cabin was clean and very cute, but the hot tub was green. Tried to contact someone several times and no one ever returned our call. Customer service is not very good. I would stay in this cabin again if it wasn’t for that.

I am so sorry that you did not get a response concerning your hot tub. We answer the phone from 8am until 10pm daily. We did not receive any messages about your hot tub so I wonder if maybe you were calling the wrong number. Sometimes the phones are very busy and go to voicemail but we check for messages right away and even sometimes call back numbers that don’t leave a message. Again, I am sorry that this happened to you. We will use this as a learning experience and always strive to do better.
I did not like the fact that you almost needed 4 wheel drive just to get to the cabin. It should have been explained better. We were in a truck but it was not 4x4 and we could not make the last turn without slipping so we have to go straight up and make a 3 point turn just to make the hill.
Hi Adam, thank you for choosing Piper's Place for your getaway! We’re so glad you enjoyed the quiet, secluded location. We appreciate you staying with us and hope to welcome you back for another peaceful mountain retreat soon.
My husband and I needed to get away for a couple of days and staying here was awesome. The cabin was clean and more than I expected. I would highly recommend.
The cabin was a beautiful semi-secluded romantic get away. My wife and I loved it. The only downside is a very steep driveway. We hope to go back soon.
The cabin is Cozy and feels like you’re the only one on top of the mountain! The drive up is a little steep but will be just fine during the summer and with 4x4 in the winter! Perfect for a weekend getaway
Steepness is not to be ignored but it is so worth it! Cabin was immaculately clean and in great condition. Lovely surroundings and we got to see some beautiful snow! Host was very accommodating and communicative with two out of towners not accustomed to driving in such elements and made sure we were well taken care of. It was a wonderful weekend and we look forward to the next time we can get away!
