The house was perfect for our 3-generational family, and being able to bring our dog was the cherry on top. Sue is terrific, and the place was perfect for a relaxing weekend of family time.

Rhonda and her family were perfect guests, they left the house really clean and respecte the property - they are welcome back at any time.
This is.a wonderful house! We had a group coming for a reunion and with 5 bedrooms and bathrooms we had plenty of space and privacy for everyone. The kitchen is really well appointed and Susan had lots of snacks and coffee ready for us. It's a very comfortable space and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The master bed was super comfy.

We appreciated how Sue wanted us to feel at home and enjoy our visit and made us feel appreciated and welcomed. Her communication was top notch and the house was great for a large multi generational group.
Moongalbah is an excellent Monteagle location tucked away in Clifftops yet close to attractions in Monteagle and Sewanee. Spacious home and perfect retreat for board meeting weekend. Sue had everything anyone could need plus extras thoughtfully provided. Sue is a wonderful host. Thanks!
Sue’s home was welcoming, comfortable, and large enough to accommodate our families. The setting was peaceful and we saw deer every day of our stay. The location was perfect for our trip to the Caverns and hiking in Fiery Gizzard state park. Thank you for sharing your home with us!
Perfect home for a gathering of my boarding school friends as we attended alumni weekend. Sue was an amazing host and communicator. I highly recommend this rental to anyone spending some time on the mountain. Oh! And what a lovely area where we saw so many deer and were able to truly unwind and enjoy each other.

Large home with enough space to accommodate a large family. The location was great, central to both Monteagle and Sewanee. Quiet neighborhood on a large lot.
We booked this house for Sewanee graduation weekend and the homeowner was thoughtful to make sure all our needs were met. Fantastic place to celebrate!
Sue has everything you need to host a Thanksgiving meal. She was always handy for any questions we had. There was so much space to spread out or cozy up together in front of the fire. We had a great visit and hope to go back!

Hi Linnea and Kevin and family.. pleased to hear you enjoyed the house and that your family wedding weekend went so well. Don't wait for another wedding, come back again, we loved having you here.
This lovely house in Clifftops was exactly as advertised. We were in town to help our daughter move into her dorm at Sewanee. The host Sue was very responsive, but not intrusive. Would highly recommend staying here if you are in the area.

This property was perfect for our family to gather and celebrate Mom. Sue’s personal touches made it feel like we were staying in the home of a close family friend. We will always treasure our time together at Monteagle!
We were in the area to see music at the Caverns nearby and this home was the perfect spot to be. It was nice and secluded and extremely welcoming. We had a wonderful and relaxing weekend.
