First Hipcamper Club

Earn this patch by being the first to spend a night outside at a new Hipcamp.

Enjoy an unforgettable stay in our converted school bus. Located in Sewanee, 3 miles from the gates and .7 miles to the Dimmick dock, our Nimbus is the perfect spot for a night in watching movies on the projector or a fireside chat under the stars. Featuring: -1 gig fiber wifi -mini-split airconditioner/heater -apartment-sized fridge -an induction cooktop -kettle & French press -projector w/ roku -Solo Stove fire pit Everything you need for your glamping stay on the mountain! We're located on a quiet 1.5 acre lot on a double dead-end road. We are a quick walk across the street to Lake Dimmick and the many trails of the University of the South domain. Points of Interest: On foot: -Lake Dimmick Access Gate - 4 minutes (.2 mile) -Lake Dimmick Dock - 15 minutes (.7 mile) By car: -La Bella Pearl - 5 minutes -Mountain Goat Bike Trail - 5 minutes -Downtown Sewanee - 7 minutes -Head of the Crow State Park Visitor Center - 7 minutes -Downtown Monteagle - 8 minutes -Lake Cheston - 11 minutes -Fiery Gizzard Trailhead - 21 minutes -The Caverns - 28 minutes A few neighbors' houses are somewhat visible from the bus. Neighborhood noises including dogs/cars/roosters/etc are also possible, as are the sounds of wildlife! We've seen deer, heard bobcats, and are stunned by the variety of birdsong we hear in the mornings. We are in the process of restoring our land. Shoes are required on the lot, as there could be remaining debris from the previous owners. For the same reason, we also require guests to stick to the gravel and mulched areas and paths. Other things to note The bus is visible from the road, however we are one of only 3 houses on this street, so traffic is minimal (though it can be fast). 🐾 Pet Policy We’re happy to welcome well-behaved dogs! There is a $50 pet fee per stay to help cover additional cleaning and upkeep so we can continue offering a fresh, comfortable space for every guest (and their furry friends 🐶). Please make sure to add your pet to your reservation when booking, or let us know before check-in so we can update your stay accordingly. We kindly ask that pets: Are house-trained Stay off furniture and beds Are never left unattended inside the home unless crated Thank you for helping us keep the space enjoyable for all guests!!Enjoy an unforgettable stay in our converted school bus.
