Wonderful weekend stay

We had a lovely stay at the Sewanne Inn. The lobby is beautiful and cozy and the staff was welcoming and went out of their way to accommodate us. Its proximity to the university is perfect for exploring the campus and hiking trails.We didn’t golf or tennis but the facilities looked nice. The breakfast at Shakerag restaurant is not to be missed. Overall, we had a rejuvenating stay.

Wonderful Place to Stay

The property was beyond my expectations! I remember it many years ago and wasn't sure how it would be. I found out while staying there that the old property had been torn down and rebuilt all new. The rooms were very comfortable. The property offered a wonderful patio with firepits a bar and restaurant on site. Matthew was very helpful answering my questions about it. We only stayed for a night but would definately stay there again if visiting Sewanee! Thank you for an enjoyable and relaxing stay!
