SANDWICHES ABOUT SKYLAND From 1853 to the early 1900s, copper was mined on the 5,371-acre Stony Man Mountain Tract. During that time, the area that was to become Skyland was extensively timbered to make charcoal to fuel the ore furnaces. The copper was smelted just north of, and below, the plateau at Furnace Spring. Although copper did exist in the area and was mined, it was not commercially successful. By 1889 Pollock and Allen were forced to obtain a $52,000 mortgage to pay their debts.

In 1888, 18-year-old George Freeman Pollock, son of one of the property owners, convinced his father to allow him to visit the Stony Man Tract. Pollock arrived that fall George Freeman Pollock and fell in love with the scenic splendor of the area, returning home with the concept of a rustic resort. His father, seeing some potential return for his mining investment, joined with investors to buy out the other stockholders in the mining company.

During 1888 and 1889, Pollock guided two groups of more than twenty prospective lot purchasers to Stony Man Mountain and, by the spring of 1889, had collected $3,000 from sales. During this time, he joined with friends to build a saw and planing mill below Furnace Spring to produce materials to erect new buildings at Skyland.

Skyland’s guests and landowners understood that all meals were to be taken at the communal dining hall located just south of the central open space. By 1900, Pollock had constructed a recreation building and dance hall, known as “Pastime Hall,” just west of the dining hall and grass tennis courts in the open center field. An infusion of money was provided by the purchase of the copper rights to the lands outside of Skyland proper in 1900, by the sales of additional cabin sites, and by loans of several thousand dollars. Thus, Pollock was able to erect an acetylene gas plant designed to light the dining hall, bathhouses, kitchen and bungalows, as well as to landscape the grounds. The gas plant was used until 1920, when Pollock introduced electricity to the resort. DID YOU KNOW?

Automobiles, radios and the telephone were becoming common, skirts were growing shorter, and members of the middle class were kicking up their heels to the Charleston and “All that Jazz.” Guests at Skyland played lawn tennis on the green, swam in the cold pool at Furnace Springs, enjoyed meals and fancy balls in the restaurant, and participated in elaborate Wild West Shows and pageants. It was a decade of relaxed social standards for the fl appers and their beaus, an era that would come to a rapid halt as the stock market crash of October 1929 ushered in the Great Depression.
