This a great place to stay in Sewanee. Easy access to the campus. Full one bedroom apartment with everything you could possibly need for a pleasant stay, and lots of nice extras, too, like assorted coffee and tea blends. I will definitely stay there again if and when I get back to Sewanee.

Our host was so welcoming! This is a cozy and comforting place with a nice little kitchen, washer and dryer, books, puzzles, games, good bathroom, bedding and towels. Felt very much at home. Very easy in and out in quiet neighborhood with hiking trails just out back, horses and goats nearby and central campus a 2 minute drive. We loved our time here!

Convenient and comfortable. This is a great spot for two people- very close to Sewanee campus. Plenty of details to make our stay more enjoyable. Other than a small snafu with check in- we had a seamless visit. Would certainly recommend and would love to return!

Loft in Sewanee

This Loft is over a garage of a private home, but was very quiet in a residential neighborhood. Very clean, well stocked w coffee, spices and bkfst cereal. The bed is comfy and sheets very soft. Highly recommend this listing.
