Mount Sequoyah Conference / Retreat Center Accommodations

The Mount Sequoyah center is located on a large, secluded campus in the heart of Fayetteville and will be the center for worship services (Bailey Center), meals (Galloway Dining Hall), accommodations and most activities.  There are a variety of cottage rooms, a bunk house (for teens / young adults) and a lodge (for seniors) all within walking distance of one another.  Outdoor recreation includes tennis and basketball courts, sandpit volleyball, horseshoe pits and an open field.  Free Wi-Fi is also available.  We recommend bringing lawn chairs, sun screen and flash lights.  There are no laundry facilities on campus.

Cottage Rooms

Each cottage room has a private bathroom, coffee maker, and bedding and bath linens are provided.  We suggest you visit mountsequoyah.org and under the Venues Tab, scroll down to Cottages for more detailed information.  There are several cottages with varied sleeping arrangements. Some cottage rooms share a small kitchen or gathering area.  Most cottages are circled closely together around Williams-Ware Gazebo for convenient fellowship with other guests.  Please choose the cottage room that most closely fits your family’s needs when considering the options.  We will gladly help you through the decision-making process when placing your reservation.
