Nice clean house, well decorated and nicely equipped kitchen. Only complaint was about the comfort of the twin beds, they were very hard and uncomfortable. Overall our stay here was lovely!

Karen thanks for taking the time to write us a helpful review. I'm sorry you didn't find the twin beds more comfortable. It's hard to find a mattress firmness that makes everyone happy. I hope it won't deter you from visiting us again.

Tranquil stay at Killian's View

Beautiful lakeside stay

I use vrbo a lot and this home is absolutely one of the best stay. The house is lovely and very well kept. As nice as the house is, the view from the deck is spectacular. This is where we spent our time, watching eagle, herons, and I swear a baby bear. We will be back.

We enjoyed our stay here by the lake. It is quite peaceful with a beautiful view. The house is very clean and I was quite pleasantly surprised by the number of pans and other kitchen items available for use. We would stay here again if we are visiting the area.

Relaxing and peaceful getaway

This place was very well organized with labels everywhere to help you locate items. It was very clean, cutely decorated, and we LOVED the dock and view of the gorgeous lake. We came here for a family funeral and this was the perfect retreat for us to seek some peace and enjoy good family time. Highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Melanie D Cahill

Host profile image
My husband and I are semi retired. We love traveling and seeing our grandchildren. Over the years we have enjoyed staying in various properties traveling both abroad and in the US. We had always dreamed of having a property on the water so in 2020 our journey with Killian's View began. After a 9 month renovation, we opened for short term rental. We love accommodating people from all over the world in our peaceful corner of Tennessee. And when we aren't hosting guests we enjoy staying at Killian's View ourselves. This way we can make sure our home is perfect for our guests.

Why they chose this property

We were drawn to this property for its incredible view. It sits above Watts Bar Lake on the main channel. While we do experience various water levels throughout the year it never obstructs our beautiful view. The home needed a complete remodel which we did mostly ourselves. We put in many of the touches and attention to details that we appreciated in other properties we visited. Our home is perfect for a couples getaway, personal retreats, a home base or spending time with your family and friends. Our huge deck has a picnic table, comfy furniture and a propane grill or cook in our fully stocked kitchen with beautiful views. When the water levels are high, generally March through November, you can fish, swim or boat off our lovely dock.

What makes this property unique

At Killian's View you will enjoy being close to nature. There are many deer on our peninsula and if you are lucky you may see one of the eagles flying around close to the deck. Yet, we are less than an hour away from many attractions dining and shopping.
