adorable well appointed house

This house is a perfect little bungalow for a mountain get away. It is walking distance to Sewanee's campus as well as restaurants like Blue Chair and Lunch. The construction is new so everything is very clean and pristine. The sofas and beds are comfortable. And, the layout is very cleaver... it feels much bigger than the square footage indicates. We would definitely rent there again. Our host was super nice and helpful as well.

Beautiful Bright House!

My daughter & I had a nice short weekend stay at The Bright House for Sewanee move-in. The house appears to be brand new…you can even smell the new wood! The location is super close to campus. House is very clean. Kitchen is outfitted with everything you could need including spices & oil! I enjoyed spending time on the secluded back porch. Communication with owner was perfect. I will definitely look at renting again when back in the area.
