My husband got the room and said the staff were very friendly. Infact they weren't even open for the season yet and they let us stay here anyways so... More

“GREAT PLACE TO STAY!!”

Reviewed 16 August 2012

We have stayed here several times when visiting Cherokee. It is always very clean, and the staff are always very informative and professional. It is always quiet and just a short drive to the casino!!!! Will stay again when we are in the area.

“Nice and Quiet”

Reviewed 14 July 2012

This place is not in the middle of everything and is nice and quiet. Has great river access. Is only a short drive to Bryson, Sylva, and the National Park. It has the cleanest pool that I have ever seen! The hospitality was great ...the owner even gave us fresh vegtables for the 4th of July!
