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.

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.
