Hapey Place – Where Mountain Views Meet Game Room Fun
Panoramic Mountain Views | Game Room Paradise | Fenced Dog Run
If you're searching for a Smoky Mountain cabin that delivers *both* breathtaking scenery and all-weather entertainment, you just found it. Hapey Place is the sweet spot between adventure and relaxation – 15 minutes to Dollywood and Gatlinburg, but perched high enough to feel like you've escaped it all.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Why Hapey Place Stands Out
✓ Game Room Central – Pool table, foosball, 60-in-1 arcade table (rainy days = no problem)
✓ Fenced Dog Run – Your pup gets mountain air while you sip coffee on the deck
✓ Zero Pet Fees – No surprise charges, no breed restrictions
✓ 15 Minutes to Everything – Dollywood, Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge all in easy striking distance
✓ Hot Tub with a View – Soak under the stars with the mountains as your backdrop
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The Space: Built for Comfort & Fun
Sleeps 4:
Master Bedroom
→ King bed with premium mattress
→ Flat-screen TV with DVR
→ Large closet (unpack and stay awhile)
→ En-suite bathroom with walk-in shower
Living Room
→ Queen sleeper sofa (upgraded mattress – actually comfortable)
→ Stone fireplace (electric, instant coziness)
→ Free WiFi & Roku streaming (Netflix, Hulu, Disney+)
→ Mountain views through every window
Perfect for: Couples, small families, or two friends who want space + togetherness.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The Game Room (Why Kids Beg to Come Back)
This isn't a token "game corner" – it's a full-blown entertainment zone:
- Pool table (regulation size, tournament-quality felt)
- Foosball table (built-in score counters, cup holders)
- 60-in-1 Arcade Table – Ms. Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, Galaga, and 57 more classics
- Board game library – classics like Monopoly, Uno, and more
**Translation:** When the weather doesn't cooperate (or you need a break from attractions), you've got a built-in amusement arcade. Past guests say their teens *asked* to stay at the cabin instead of going out. That's when you know it's working.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The View: Why This Cabin's Location Wins
Hapey Place sits at elevation, giving you:
- 180-degree mountain vistas (not just tree canopy)
- Sunrise & sunset shows (coffee on the deck = free entertainment)
- Privacy (no neighbors staring at your hot tub)
- Wildlife sightings (deer, wild turkeys, occasional black bear in the distance)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Outside: Your Private Mountain Retreat
The Deck
- 100% covered (stay outside even in rain)
- Log rocking chairs – the official Smoky Mountain meditation position
- Dining table – breakfast with a view beats Cracker Barrel
- Charcoal grill – steaks taste better at 2,000 feet
The Hot Tub
Positioned for maximum views, minimum disturbance. It seats 4-6 and looks straight out at the mountain ridges. Pro tip: Go at sunset with a bottle of wine. You're welcome.
The Fenced Dog Run
Your dog gets 500+ square feet of secure outdoor space. Not a tiny "pee patch" – a legitimate yard where they can sniff, explore, and burn energy. We've had golden retrievers, German shepherds, and even a Great Dane here. All approved.
**Zero pet fees. Zero breed restrictions. Just clean up after them.**

Why Hapey Place vs. Other "View Cabins"

Hapey Place gives you the view without the stress:

You get the postcard views without needing a Jeep or anti-anxiety meds.
