About this property

"Mountain Time" Mt Views/HotTub/Wi-Fi/Shuffleboard

"Mountain Time" (at Sky Cove) Tastefully Updated, (gorgeous - all new expanded exterior decking in 2023), and available for your enjoyment! Luxury Amenities, Designer appointments throughout, Just 10 minutes from downtown Bryson City, yet the Cabin offers an "Away from it all" Feeling!
As you arrive, you will drive up a paved mountain road, and will pass a few other cabins along the way. “Mountain Time” is at the end of a short side road, and sits on a “Knoll”, surrounded by Nature.

The kitchen, dining room and main level living spaces flow together for a roomy, light, and open floor plan with plenty of windows, and a complete wall of glass that emphasizes the Stunning Mountain Views. 
Solid surface countertops in the kitchen provide ample space for preparation and cooking. Additionally, the kitchen has been freshly updated with stainless steel appliances and is well stocked with everything you will need to prepare and serve your home cooked meals. For the Chef in the Family, Grilling out has never been this "View-licious"!
The living space has soaring ceilings, a stone gas log fireplace, unique Designer décor, luxurious updated furniture, and a large flat screen HDTV.  Just a few steps from the kitchen is the main level’s full bathroom with ceramic tile, and a jetted tub. The laundry room offers a full size washing machine and dryer.
Proceed through the sliding doors, out onto the newly expanded gorgeous view deck - to the comfortable seating choices, and a Sparkling Hot Tub. Stepping into the soothing bubbles is convenient and easy as you set the mood with wonderful starry skies above in the night time, and layers of Captivating Mountain views during the day! When you are through relaxing in the Hot Tub, slip into one of the complimentary Bathrobes we provide for your use during your stay
A few steps from the Hot Tub deck will bring you to the Fire Pit, so bring the S'mores and brush up on those memory making fireside stories...
Kick back in one of the rocking chairs and enjoy your coffee as the fog lifts from the endless rolling mountains each morning.  Immediately adjacent is the gas grill.
The porch provides plenty of seating and space for enjoying Nature, Dining Al Fresco, and grilling with friends and family.

Come back inside to explore the rest of the cabin including the main level bedroom which offers a Flatscreen TV, and a very comfortable and luxurious queen size bed (High quality Firm Mattress with a Luxury Top layer added for a Soft touch).
From the main room, journey up the staircase to the upstairs master bedroom!  The Master Bedroom has a very comfortable king size bed (Firm Mattress with a Luxurious Top Layer for Sublime Comfort), and a private ensuite bathroom (renovated in 2023) with a shower, 3rd out of 3 Total satellite TV's, and more spectacular mountain views...
Ready for a game Shuffleboard?  Head downstairs to the game table in the main living space area. This shuffleboard table is bound to provide hours of Fun and Entertainment for the entire Family!

Whether you are here to explore the numerous scenic drives, or to Kayak, go White water rafting, Zip lining, Tubing, Mountain Biking, Boating on Fontana Lake, Hike the trails, and more... "Mountain Time - At Sky Cove" will make you feel at home, and keep you coming back again and again! 

"Mountain Time" does provide complimentary High Speed WiFi so you can work remotely and email your Friends and Family to let them know what a Great time you are having. UPDATE: "Mountain Time" is connected to the best area internet service that offers Unlimited Usage (unlimited internet usage is not readily available in rural areas so it is kind of a big deal in the mountains).

For your convenience, we offer a few tips and optional services:

... Also available is our Shopping service. If you would like to arrive at the Cabin with your Groceries already stocked, ask for details, we will have everything waiting for you upon your arrival.
... If you would like to enjoy a Spa Massage Service at the Cabin, it is a good idea to book in advance to assure availability. Your Professional Massage Therapist will come to you, so when you are done, they quietly disappear and leave you to relax!
... If your vacation dates are during 'Season' or Holidays and you plan to rent a pontoon or fishing boat, it may be a good idea to reserve in advance! Lake Fontana is primarily National Forest, Smoky Mountains, and Federally owned, so the Lake is never 'Busy', but the few available rental boats do get booked up.

Nice mountain view off the beaten path
Description, pictures, and directions were all on point. We were out the majority of the time and used this as a base camp to unwind in the evenings after long days of hiking and exploring from Bryson to Gatlinburg, TN. We were fortunate with the weather so the deck was great for morning coffee and fire ring below was a great for evening cocktails before turning in.

Loved this mountain home! The views are incredible, the property is well maintained and has everything you need. We enjoyed the firepit, hot tub, and shuffleboard several nights. Hosts were very helpful and provided great instructions for how to reach the property. Everything was just as described in the listing. We'd love to stay here again!

Perfect in every way
I recently stayed 3 nights with myself and two teenage sons. We had an amazing trip. There really isn’t much I can say that hasn’t already been said, but I’ll say it anyway! The house was spotless. The kitchen and bathrooms were clean, neat and organized. We didn’t cook much, but they had everything you’d need. Beds were very comfortable and sheets freshly laundered. The hot tub was such a bonus! We did a lot of kayaking, hiking and tubing and it was perfect for all our tired and sore bodies at the end of a long day. It stays nice and cool on the top of the mountain, so it was never too warm outside for a night time soak. The new deck was where we spent most of our time! It was huge and cozy. Let me say, that photos can’t do that view justice. It never got old! We were visited by several deer and a beautiful gray fox came two nights in a row. The boys and I LOVED the shuffleboard table! After dinner each night we would have a few rounds and then go sit in the hot tub and look at the stars. One night we set our projector up and watched a movie outside. The drive up to the mountain….took a few years off my life the first time (I’m a 7th generation Floridian so flat ground is my norm), but it did get easier. It kinda reminded me of the same feeling you get on a roller coaster, you’re scared to death but can’t wait to do it again! It was paved and well maintained. I’ve been on much worse and it’s worth the drive. Rent it. You’ll be so glad you did!!!

An absolutely wonderful place to relax and unwind.
We have been planning our US trip for nearly two years and high on our list of stopovers was the Smokey Mountains. We found Mountain Time on VRBO and it looked exactly what we were looking for. I have to say that it turned out to be everything we wanted it to be. Everything you need has been thought about. The facilities are fantastic. The property is really well maintained and has a really homely feel to it. The views are breathtaking and we miss them already. The owners should be very proud of what they have achieved with this beautiful home. Our time here will always hold a special place in our hearts.

Perfect family getaway
My family and I were looking for a secluded place in the mountains for our spring break trip. This property was exactly what we needed. The house felt very secluded even though it shared the driveway with another property. During the evenings we’d sit around the fire and my kiddos (ages 7 and 3) enjoyed gathering sticks for kindling. Waking up every morning, looking out the A-framed windows from our bed was the best way to start the day. Kitchen was fully equipped and allowed us to enjoy meals at home. My little ones especially enjoyed the shuffle board table for a game or two before bed. The deck and fire pit area seemed brand new and was incredibly comfortable and secluded. I’m he views were everything. Located close to town and the entrance to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, this property really couldn’t be beat if you are looking for a mountain home with two beds and two baths with a stunning view.

Beautiful and cozy!
We loved our stay! This cabin was very clean and cozy. The drive to the cabin in the dark was a little scary (goes with the territory). The small sign was hard to spot in the dark as well. A bigger sign would be helpful but all was good as we found and enjoyed our weekend retreat!

1 year anniversary trip
layout of the house was perfect, awesome views comfy beds, robes were comfy, towels were abundant. We loved the shuffle board, so fun. The drive up the driveway is very steep and curvy but worth it. The photos did not really show other houses near, they are not on top of you, but they are close enough to see activity. We had Avanti Mobile spa come and do a couple massage, amazing! then into the hot tub. so nice. We had dinner at Everett's Bistro 2 night. Great drinks and food!! Great stay we will come back for sure.

Amazing View and lovely cabin but..
The description of their “detailed cleaning” needs work, especially the spa which was dirty and highly chlorinated. They advertise using a Bromine floater but we were told by the guy who cleans it he uses chlorine. There was easily seen dust in areas especially the bedroom ceiling fan, kitchen light fixtures and dining room table. For some odd reason the upstairs bedroom closet was locked but we stayed on the lower levels. More hangers should be given at least when you have two or more people. But you can’t beat this amazing view. The cabin was lovely otherwise too. We couldn’t use the spa in the condition it was in. We mentioned it the first day there and immediately the guy came out to drain it and put fresh water in but there was still dirt in the spa including pube hair. He said he would go light on the chlorine but it still was smelling strong. We’ve had spas ourselves for many decades and know how to maintain a spa. Seeing we do pay upfront for cleaning that is the reason I’m mentioning this and giving 4 stars because someone should check the cleaning crew in a “detailed” fashioned seeing they advertise detailed cleaning.

We stayed in Bryson City over the weekend to attend my nephews wedding at The Parker Mill. Our cabin's view was just as beautiful as their mountain view for their vows. I thought the mountainous road was fun and adventurous and almost didn't want to even leave the cabin. The view is stunning and the hot tub tops off the experience.

Great mountain getaway
We loved this cabin. Great location, located just about 10 minutes from town so that it was convenient but also far enough that you felt away from it all. The view was amazing from the back of the house and although there were other houses on the same pull off street, the deck and outdoor area was private. At times we could hear other people in the distance, but it was minor and we couldn't see anyone. We really loved the cabin overall. We were also pleased with the management. We had an issue with running out water when we got back one evening, we texted Steve who was in charge of maintenance. He texted back right away and had a maintenance person out immediately and a water delivery within the hour. We understand that things happen and really appreciated their quick response so that we were not inconvenienced. Overall we were very pleased with this property and would love to stay again. We also loved Bryson City!

About the host

Host profile image
About the cabin Owners:
We purchased “Mountain Time” in the summer of 2017, and it has been one of the best decisions we have ever made. We both are Civil Engineers who love to travel and have a passion for the outdoors. We live in Indiana and often drove south for our vacations, many times seeking cooler temps, either at a beach or in the mountains. After almost two years of planning and searching for that perfect destination, we were able to purchase our vacation home in the mountains of Bryson City.

Why we chose Smoky Mountains:
We fell in love with Bryson City the first time we visited. It is quaint, friendly and surrounded by beautiful mountains. We visited Gatlinburg as well, but the lifestyle did not match us, so we kept coming back to Bryson City for its charm, laid-back atmosphere and the variety of activities to choose from. The more interested we became in Bryson City, the more we discovered about the many awards, Top 10 lists, etc.… where Bryson City and the surrounding area are recognized. We’ve spent quite a bit of time there and it is always difficult to load up the truck to go home.
Mike and Jean

Why they chose this property

Why this property:
We enjoy the odd pairing of “a place to get away” and conveniences. The grocery store is 10 minutes away, and the cabin is accessed by a paved road right up to our “drive”, which has a great level parking area. Nantahala Outdoor Center is 15 minutes southwest. Bryson City is 15 minutes east. But if you sit at the patio table or in the hot tub at the end of the day and look out, you will only see one farmhouse, perhaps 5 miles away, on the side of another mountain, with cattle in the pasture. It truly is a peaceful place, and it truly is difficult to leave. Being engineers, we find ourselves making plans to add, change, and improve the property. It is one of our “hobbies” that we can embrace rather than escape while we are at Mountain Time.
So we invite you to share our vacation home, sit down at the patio table with your favorite beverage, and see if you can find that farmhouse. With any luck you’ll hear the Great Smoky Mountain Train blow its horn during one of its excursions, or perhaps even better, you will hear nothing other than birds and the wind in the trees.
Mike and Jean
