We’ll stocked Kitchen

The kitchen had everything you might need for cooking . Plenty of dishes and cups. The house itself is surrounded by lovely forest and eventhough a new house is getting builds behind the one, it’s on a lower grade and hardly noticeable. Great walking neighborhood. We were packing a lot of luggage since we are moving and waiting for our new home completion. You should know that the 3rd and master bedroom to this house is locked and not part of the rental. The two remaining bedrooms are small; we used the room with twin beds for our luggage. The queen bed is tired and could use a new mattress. Bathroom is very clean and has very nice towels.

Nice place once it was cleaned

We arrived at the property, nice area and view. Once inside we noticed the home hadn’t been cleaned. The bathroom and shower were dirty. Kitchen was dirty, old food and milk over a month old in refrigerator . Stove was filthy with grease. Bed linen’s hadn’t been changed. Contacted the owner who was very apologetic and said she would get her cleaning company out as soon as possible. We went to dinner and came back to the cleaning person still cleaning. We didn’t want to get in her way so we stayed outside ( 40 degrees out). She finally finished at 9:30pm. She said we wouldn’t be responsible for the cleaning fee when we left the house. We contacted the owner and told her that the cleaning person said we would not be responsible for the cleaning fee which was great. We said that we didn’t feel we should have to pay for the first night since the house was dirty and we were inconvenienced. The owner said no, but did offer us an additional nights stay. Unfortunately we had a flight to catch and jobs to return to. One of her text comments was that “this not a hotel”. Also one of her texts was “this was not my fault”. We feel if you own a property to rent it’s your responsibility to ensure that everything is in order for guests. This was our first time renting through VRBO.

Tellico Village VRBO

Upon arrival we pulled up and the outside of the house and yard was needing help, and things looked a little run down. We had a problem with the drain in the tub/shower not draining and backing up while showering, we contacted Michelle and she got a Plummer to resolve the problem the next day and we greatly appreciated that. We wish there had been an ice maker, we were quite surprised to have only 2 ice trays that we had to refill. Very nice to have a washer and dryer for use along with laundry supplies. Lighting was poor , bedrooms and living rooms had dim lights. It would have been nice to have a dresser and mirror in the bedroom for a place to put on makeup/ do hair if bathroom was in use. The outdoor screened porch is really nice and has a lot of privacy.

Tellico village house is great!

Tellico village was a great experience. It's in a quiet neighborhood, screened in porch, deck to host, close to rec center to swim or workout for a day pass, and close to the lake! When we got there we noticed the floor was not clean. Contacted the manager of the property on VRBO and got an instant response. They were very apologetic and contact the cleaning company to tell them. I told them it happens sometimes Overall great experience you'll love your stay

Beautiful vacation spot

My husband and I loved staying at this home in Tellico Village. The neighborhood and surrounding areas are just beautiful with all different homes on winding roads. This house had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and even more amenities that we didn't use like a barbecue grill, fire pit, etc. The hosts stayed in good contact and answered all questions timely. Very happy I found this spot and will use again if I need a place to stay in Loudon. Geralyn and Pete

Beautiful home small bedroom

Beautiful home, enjoyed the deck, but the main bedroom was so small we could barely walk between the bed and the tiny dresser, let alone open the dresser. We used the 2nd small bedroom as a closet. The bathroom also extremely small with very little storage or counter area and the shower curtain was filthy . The owner kept the real MB locked, so only the other tiny bedrooms available.

We stayed for a week, as we were investigating retiring in the area from Wisconsin. Michele’s place is very comfortable and quiet, with a great screen porch. Also convenient to all Tellico’s amenities, including one of the rec centers within walking distance. We will stay here again.

Spending Thanksgiving in Tellico Village, Tennessee

Great location. Beautiful area. Nice and quiet. Easy access to anywhere you wanted to travel. Impeccably maintained. Great communication with the host. Only criticism coming from a cook: maybe add a paring knife and a sharp pair of scissors, and a better can opener. Other than that, the stay was wonderful. I would love to visit again next fall. Thanks again for such great hospitality.

Peace and Quite

Tellico Village is a beautiful area with mountains and lakes! It's conveniently located to many recreational areas. This property is very private, clean and well stocked. You can tell that the owners take a lot of pride in this property. We were blessed every evening with the presence of a beautiful Doe and her two Fawns. We would definitely rent here again.

About the host

Hosted by Michele Albohn

I live in New York and am a business owner. I fell in love with Tennessee the first time I came to visit from New York. The people, the cities, the parks, I could go on and on. I will retire in TN in the future

Why they chose this property

This property is my second home. I come for peace and serenity. It is a very special home to me, although it is not the biggest in the Village or on the lake. This home has a peaceful and calming energy and when relaxing in the screened in porch, I feel like I am in a luxury tree house, listening to the birds and watching for deer. We hope you enjoy our home as much as we do!

What makes this property unique

I fell in love with this the first time I saw it, driving up there were several deer in the next door lot. Upon walking in, I knew this was special. There is an adorable swing on the front porch, and the beautiful and peaceful screened in porch. Breathe......
