Great Stay

Rachel was an excellent host. Loved the ambience of the hotel with its rich history. Our room was very accommodating, comfortable and had very good lighting within. We enjoyed the Saturday night music. Rachel an excellent breakfast also. We took our dog and she was very well received.

Such a charming property and perfect night.

Rachel and her Aunt were so accomodating and welcoming. The lobby of the inn is so charming and so many little extras on the property such as bath salts, robes, chocolates, coffee bar, fruit, pasteries, and on and on. The Inn being pet friendly is why we were there but it exceeded our expectations. Sheeba and our dog Oakley played and played. We highly recommend this historic inn.

The Caverns Concert

This was the perfect place to stay for our concert trip to The Caverns. The hostess was attuned to our needs and responded quickly to our texts. We could not have asked for better accommodations or expected a more friendly stay. We look forward to experiencing Cowan, TN, again in the near future.

Reunion Weekend

My son and I were charmed by Rachel and her 105 year-old Aunt Polly. The inn is warmed by antique furniture and adorned by Rachel's lovely artwork. The location is convenient to Sewanee (albeit requiring the 3 mile winding drive down the mountain) and set in the middle of cute and quaint Cowan. It is worth the visit.
