Playing Hooky

When you are ready to relax and re-charge, play hooky and escape to this serene mountain paradise located in beautiful Wears Valley. Let the peace and quiet, the fresh air and the calm forest sounds rejuvenate you. This charming cabin, built for a couple’s comfort, features a brand-new hot tub for 2, a private fire pit and a lovely deck next to a creek for dining or relaxing.

When you enter Playing Hooky, you will immediately notice the incredible, creative hand-crafted décor of this cabin. The porch posts, dining table and bedroom décor were shaped from native hardwoods with thoughtful attention to detail.

The cabin has a dining area, a well-equipped kitchen and a relaxing living area with comfortable chairs for 2, a flat screen TV and gas fireplace. The cozy bedroom has a queen bed, a flat screen TV and is adjacent to a beautiful bathroom with a large walk-in shower. The cabin is also equipped with a washer/dryer.

Outside, enjoy coffee or a good book while sitting on the deck next to the small creek. Unwind with a morning or evening soak in the hot tub located in a private area on the back deck. Build a fire at twilight in the natural stone fire pit, and enjoy the crackling sounds, the evening lightening bugs and refreshing wood smells.

The deck area features a table for 2, perfect for a romantic meal next to the creek. You never know what wildlife you might spy in the woodland area surrounding the cabin - black bears, deer, wild turkeys, fox, or pileated wood peckers!

Year-round fishing and seasonal pool access can be enjoyed nearby. Playing Hooky has a membership for your use to the Honeysuckle Meadows Pool & Deli located approximately 3 ½ miles from the cabin. Fishing pole rentals are available onsite during the summer season.

Make plans to go fishing, swimming, hiking or tubing in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park located just 4 miles from the cabin via the Wears Valley/Line Springs Road entrance. Just inside the Park entrance is Metcalf Bottoms, a fantastic picnic area that features tables, grills, and the cool waters of the Little River.

Day driving trips through Cades Cove, to Clingmans Dome, around the Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail, to the Mountain Farm Museum & Mingus Mill near Cherokee or on the Tail of the Dragon always make fun & enjoyable outings. The entrance to the new scenic Wears Valley/Walland section of the Foothills Parkway which took over 50 years to complete is located just 2 1/2 miles from Playing Hooky.

For local dining near the cabin, some favorites are: Grandmother’s Kitchen, Elvira’s Café, Pawpaw’s Cajun Kitchen, Sloppy Hog Burger Joint, and the Wear Valley Social Food Truck Park.

After you have relaxed in this comfortable cabin and enjoyed the beautiful outdoors and nearby activities, you will wish you didn’t have to leave! You will be counting the days until you can return again to Playing Hooky.

Emotional Support Animals: Per official ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) guidance, emotional support animals (ESAs) are not covered by federal public accommodations laws. We do not accept emotional support animals in non-pet friendly cabins since these animals are not protected by any applicable federal, state, or local laws or regulations regarding short term lodging in Tennessee. Renters with emotional support animals may only bring their ESA with them if they are staying in a pet friendly cabin and pay the relevant $75.00 non-refundable pet fee. Renters with service animals for a disability are explicitly protected under both federal and state law. The ADA defines service animals as dogs that have been “trained to perform a task directly related to a person’s disability.” Service animals are explicitly protected under both state and federal law, and, as such, are welcome in any of our cabins.
