Basecamp
Tellico Plains is a hidden gem for motorcyclists and car enthusiasts seeking beautiful roads without the crowds. Surrounded by rolling mountains and protected forests, the area offers smooth two-lane highways, sweeping curves, and stunning overlooks—perfect for relaxed cruising or spirited day trips.
From iconic routes like the Cherohala Skyway and the Tail of the Dragon to lesser-known backroads filled with history and charm, every drive reveals small towns, scenic pull-offs, and breathtaking views. Whether you’re chasing legendary curves, waterfalls, hikes or simply enjoying the journey, Tellico Plains delivers a experience that’s as rewarding as the destination.
Game Room
Step into our inviting Game Room — the perfect place to relax, connect, and enjoy a bit of friendly competition. Challenge your companions to pool, ping pong, air hockey, or shuffleboard, or settle into a cozy couch to catch the big game or your favorite show on one of two large streaming TVs. When the weather turns, the Game Room easily transforms into a warm, welcoming indoor dining area — an ideal setting for group meals, celebrations, or casual gatherings.
Pavillion
Gather, grill, and take in the views at our Pavilion — a favorite spot for guests to relax and connect in the great outdoors. With a large fire pit for cozy evenings, two charcoal grills for cooking up your favorites, and plenty of tables and chairs, it’s an ideal place for group picnics or casual get‑togethers. Surrounded by mountain scenery, the Pavilion at The Lodge at Tellico brings people together in true mountain‑lodge style.
Laundry
Travel light and stay fresh with our convenient honor-system laundry room, available to all Lodge at Tellico guests. Our cozy laundry space is stocked with washers, dryers, and complimentary laundry soap, so you don’t have to pack bulky supplies. Just start a load when it fits your schedule and settle up on the honor system—simple, relaxed, and perfectly in tune with the way we do things here in the mountains. The machines are available between 3pm and 8am.
Motorcycle Garage
Park with confidence in our rider‑only motorcycle garage, a fully enclosed space designed to keep your bike safe, dry, and close at hand after a long day in the mountains. The bright, roomy garage offers exclusive parking for two‑ and three‑wheeled motorcycles, giving you a comfortable place to cool down your ride, check it over, and gear up for your next run.
Massage Services
Unwind even further at the Lodge at Tellico with in‑room massage services provided by trusted local therapists, available by advance appointment. Guests can choose from relaxing Swedish, therapeutic, and deep‑tissue styles tailored to sore muscles after a long ride or hike, and enjoy their session in the privacy and comfort of their own room without having to drive into town or visit
Moto Wash
Keep your ride looking as sharp with our new dedicated moto wash area, designed specifically for travelers. The wash station offers easy access to water, cleaning supplies, and wipe‑down towels so you can quickly rinse off road grime, bugs, and mountain dust before parking in the enclosed motorcycle garage or heading back out on the Cherohala Skyway and surrounding roads.
