Forget work, forget the schedule, leave your busy world behind and come Play Hooky in the Smokies. Playing Hooky is a beautiful, romantic 1-bedroom pet friendly, honeymoon cabin in Wears Valley, TN that gives you the perfect combination of mountain charm, privacy and modern comforts.

If you are looking for a cabin that will force you to put your phone down and enjoy special moments with your loved one, Playing Hooky should be your #1 choice.

Whether you’re celebrating a honeymoon, anniversary, birthday or special occasion or just want to get away, this cabin is the perfect place to unwind, relax, and disconnect from the world outside.

While Playing Hooky, may we suggest spending your mornings enjoying a cup of freshly brewed coffee and a yummy glazed doughnut while relaxing and enjoying the peaceful mountain surroundings?

After a leisurely morning, take a dip in the outdoor hot tub and bask in the sun. Vitamin D never felt so good.

Spend the afternoon exploring the Smokies and enjoy a picnic at Metcalf Bottoms. In the summer months, spend the day at Metcalf Bottoms cooking out and wading in the river. The cold mountain water is absolutely refreshing on a hot summer day.

In the evening gather around the firepit under the stars and enjoy the kind of evening you’ll remember long after you leave. Don’t forget the ingredients for the perfect Smoky Mountain Smores: Graham Crackers, Giant Marshmallows, Hershey Chocolate Bars, and No Cellphones.

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 $100.00 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.
