From the owner

A recent guest wrote in our guest book..."this place is beyond beautiful"...

Sitting close to the top of Bear Cove Mountain, our guests enjoy our wonderful, like new, very private luxury mountain home....with two bedrooms, two baths and its great location....it is in the very heart of the Smoky Mountain activities! Special features include a breathtaking view of the Smoky Mountains from most rooms including the screened porch and deck, a large hot tub on the screened porch (where you're safe from all the outside critters) a remote controlled gas log fireplace, a beautiful cathedral ceiling in the Great Room, and an outdoor fire pit for those wonderful campfires.

In addition to the hot tub, the large, comfortable screened porch has rockers, a teak wood table and chairs and even a comfortable daybed for those naps after hiking. The deck is great for relaxing on the swing and enjoying the spectacular short and long range views, grilling out and dining under the umbrella or rocking and enjoying the wonderful feeling that comes with being in the mountains.

We are centrally located for ALL of the Smoky Mountain activities! We offer a great location, just minutes to Bryson City, the Gateway to the Smokies...the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad...Fontana Lake, a beautiful mountain lake where ;you can swim, fish and rent a pontoon boat for half or the entire day...the Nantahala Outdoor Center for whitewater rafting, horseback riding, biking, and fun restaurants...Cherokee, you can try your luck at Harrah's Casino...Deep Creek for tubing, hiking, and picnics...the Smoky Mountain Country Club which is a beautiful mountain course and open to the public...the Blue Ridge Parkway...where is there a more beautiful drive? And maybe best of all...Ingles Supermarket is only five minutes away!

But...if you're looking for complete seclusion, getting totally away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life...and doing nothing more than relaxing, reading a good book and enjoying being alone together...You will love Retreat in the Sky...our view is majestic and our only neighbors are the birds and occasional wild turkeys that come to visit...
