Perfect quiet weekend

Frank and Kelsey’s place is the perfect spot for a quiet weekend in the woods. It’s well-stocked for everything you need to rest, eat, and spend family time. Comfortable couches and beds for lounging around between hikes or swims. Nice that it has separate living areas for kids and adults to watch separately. All the streaming services you need for when it rains. Close to the lake and beach for fun in the sun. Highly recommend the place and hope to visit again!

Wonderful property in the woods!

We really enjoyed our stay in Monteagle. The house is so cozy and comfortable - we had a wonderful time! Loved seeing the deer just a few yards away from the back deck. It was so quiet, especially at night. The only issue I had was the TV sign-in, but the host called to walk me through it, which I really appreciated. Thanks for a great stay at a lovely property!

Thanksgiving Weekend

Lovely large cabin in our favorite area to rent houses. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes and cookware. We had no problem putting together a holiday dinner. We have stayed in this area before and know and know how the falling leaves accumulate. The leaves had been recently blown down to the moss covered ground.

Cozy peaceful retreat

We loved our stay at Clifftops. I'm a Sewanee alum and took my husband and kids for their first visit to the domain. My brother, sis-in-law and niece joined us (as well as my parents, who camped 20 min away). This place was just perfect for the 7 of us plus 2 dinner guests. It has everything we needed for our visit. My favorite part was undoubtedly the outside entertainment spaces, including the firepit as well as the front porch. I spent many hours reading out there when we weren't touring Sewanee and Chattanooga. The hosts were easy to reach and logistics were simple. Thank you! Would love to stay here again.

Dream Cabin on The Domain

My husband and I stayed in this cabin while on a visit to see our daughter at Sewanee. It would be wonderful if I could write such a review as to paint a perfect picture of this home. It’s a feeling of wonder and excitement driving down the long driveway, tires crunching on the leaves , reminiscent of a childhood memory at Grandma’s house. At least it’s what was on my mind. There’s a true front porch reaching across the front of the house, complete with rocking chairs, and a chance to enjoy the outdoors, The smoky scent of a wood burning fireplace wafts across from neighboring homes. This home is perfect down to the smallest detail. The layout is family friendly with two charming bedrooms and a bath situated so that the primary bedroom offers a bit of distance from other guests. One highlight of the home is the well placed step down den just off the kitchen,. Rustic with unique stone flooring, and windows subtly letting the light in. Comfortable furniture and a giant television make this a special place to relax with that bestselling novel you’ve been waiting to read. Kitchen is well equipped for any type of cooking you may want. Home is immaculate, well loved, and speaks volumes about the great family who makes this house a home. This is a traveler’s dream home. Supplies you’re encouraged to use make it simple to complete everyday tasks without a trek to the store. Plush mattresses , bedding , and all linens soft, clean, and ready to use. Home feels safe and secure, so we felt that way ourselves. I hope this review has helped you make a decision on a wonderful place to be.

A wonderful mountain retreat.

A wonderful mountain retreat in a gated community. A well kept home- clean and comfortable. Perfect for hiking, enjoying the forest, yet close to restaurants, groceries, etc. There are lots of activities for families (pool, tennis/Pickleball, playground). We enjoyed it!

Favorite House Around Sewanee

The Monteagle/Sewanee Retreat in Clifftops is perfect for a getaway on the mountain. It is now one of my favorite homes around Sewanee. The house was more than advertised and sparkling clean. The kitchen has everything you need to cook a big meal and the living area is perfect for lounging on the huge sectional sofa. The master bedroom is very spacious and everyone agreed that the all beds were very comfortable. We loved spending time on the covered front porch with plenty of seating. The back deck is large and is great for grilling out. The fire pit with seating around it was perfect for roasting marsh mellows. Cannot wait to return when we get back to the mountain.

Beautiful, peaceful, & relaxing stay in the woods

We will most certainly be staying here again! The house is very accommodating, clean, and quaint. Highlights included: enjoying coffee on the expansive back deck in the mornings, swimming in the very well cared for pool during the day, fishing off the dock and playing at the beach at the lake, and lastly, our favorite, was drinking wine and making s’mores around the fire pit at night. It was so refreshing to be somewhere with so much to do for the kids but equally relaxing for the parents. Bonus, the gated community felt very safe. Overall, a lovely family get away!
