America’s Best Small Towns of 2025

"Set atop Tennessee’s Cumberland Plateau, Sewanee looks like a sleepy college town lost in the woods but is surprisingly active culturally—throughout its 170-year history it has been entangled in wider hopes, conflicts, and traditions, and today it supports artistic self-expression across books, poetry, music, architecture, dance, and theater. The town sustains long-running institutions like The Sewanee Review (America’s oldest continuously published literary quarterly) and the Sewanee Summer Music Festival, and local scholars note that Sewanee is a place where ideas form and take root." - Travel + Leisure Editors Travel + Leisure Editors Since 1971, Travel + Leisure editors have followed one mission: to inform, inspire, and guide travelers to have deeper, more meaningful experiences.
