Continues to be the best spot on the mountain

This place is special! It has everything you want for an individual retreat or a small family vacation! Location is perfect for Sewanee, Monteagle, half way between Nashville and Chattanooga. The cottage will continue to be the only place I’ll stay when visiting the area! Fantastic, responsive owners!

Mountain Retreat

Lovely little cottage situated near a bluff on the Cumberland Plateau about 4 miles from the town of Sewanee. Quiet and peaceful wooded location. Nice break from the heat and humidity of the Gulf Coast. Would definitely visit again.

Quiet Fantasy

Loved being able to have my own space with my doggie. Sue was so kind to bring veggies from her garden. The place was so comfortable and clean. Air felt so nice. I would wake up in the morning, put on hot water, and sit outside in the fence staring at the trees swimming in greens within greens while Myles sauntered his puffy butt cheeks around sniffing and pooping. Then I’d go on campus and inhale the Gothic architecture and think and write. Immaculate vibes.

What makes this property unique

The cottage is a spacious one bedroom, with provision for two additional guests. It has a bright, pleasant, fully equipped kitchen. While there is privacy, the many windows and patio provide opportunities for viewing birds and other wildlife - we regularly see foxes, hawks, songbirds, and once even a bobcat.
