By Audrea & Adam PotterBy Audrea & Adam PotterJust a short drive from Cedar Creek Hideaway RV lies Kyker Farms Corn Maze—a true farm experience in Sevierville. This Tennessee Century Farm, in operation since 1808, offers four distinct corn maze routes, including a kid‑friendly “Tater Tot” trail, plus a petting barn, hayrides, and fun farm‑themed play areas (visitsevierville.com).
The fall 2026 season runs from September 26 through October 31, with hours on Thursday and Friday from 4–7 pm, Saturdays 10 am–7 pm, and Sundays 1–7 pm (cornmazenearme.com). Admission includes one pumpkin per paid ticket—$15.50 for ages 3–5 and $22.50 for ages 6 and up; children under 3 are free (cornmazenearme.com). A hayride is included, with the last one departing one hour before closing—perfect timing to wind down your visit.
Families love the mix of low‑key, hands‑on fun and the chance to breathe fresh country air. The maze, barn, and play areas are thoughtfully designed, and the hayride with pumpkin stop makes for a charming, relaxed outing that pairs well with an evening soaking in your hot tub under the stars.
If you’re in the mood for something indoors—or want to hunt for unique finds—Green Olde Deal Antique Mall is a gem. This 51,000+ sq ft multi‑vendor space on Winfield Dunn Parkway hosts over 100 dealers offering antiques, vintage décor, farmhouse pieces, cast iron, glassware, and Smoky Mountain memorabilia (antique-storesnear.me).
The mall is well organized and clean, with clearly labeled booths and wide aisles—ideal for casual browsing or serious antique shopping (thesmokymountains.com). It’s open daily, generally from 10 am to 6 pm on weekdays and Sundays, and until 7 pm on Fridays and Saturdays (antique-storesnear.me).
Antique lovers and cabin‑decor seekers will find plenty to explore. Whether you're looking for a one‑of‑a‑kind souvenir or just enjoying the browsing, it's a relaxed outing that pairs nicely with an afternoon of exploring Sevierville.
Start your day with a playful, outdoorsy adventure at Kyker Farms—let the kids race through mazes or wander the petting barn—then wind down with a leisurely browse through Green Olde Deal Antique Mall. Both are easy drives from Cedar Creek Hideaway RV and offer flexible, enjoyable ways to connect with the region’s fall spirit.
Back at the RV, you’ll have evening magic waiting: evenings under the stars, hot tub warmth, fire‑pit conversations, and a cozy home base that’s both peaceful and perfectly placed for more discovery tomorrow.
