Harrah's Cherokee – A Caesars Rewards Destination

Harrah's Cherokee – A Caesars Rewards Destination

8/10 Good
"The room’s sheets/bedding was used and unchanged when we checked in. We tried calling for service in the room to change the bedding, but could not get through to a live person. We also requested clean bedding through the text service, and someone arrived pretty quickly to change the bedding. They did extra cleaning we didn’t request also like re mop floors. Very courteous. The tiled floor was exceptionally clean, but there was visible pink mold in the shower that needed to be attended to. The overall facility was kept clean and maintained pretty well. I appreciated the two Starbucks available as well as a couple eateries. We tried the food court, Selu cafe, and Guy Fieri’s. All REALLY good food! Selu is in need of new furniture though. The food courts ice cream and waffle cones were very fresh. Everything we had there was good quality and tasty. There are not many healthy options in the food court unless you go with the previously prepared foods like cold sandwiches, but the market sandwich was absolutely delicious on great whole grain bread! Loved it! The casino area was kept quite clean and appeared to be well attended to. We did not check out the pool area, but saw others coming and going from it. I’d definitely like to go again."

Drama Inn

10/10 Excellent
"This is an older establishment which adds to the charm, it is right on the river which offers a great view from the porch just outside your door. The park is right next door and shopping and eating establishments are walking distance away. The Elk, Geese and Ducks offer hours of enjoyment and if you go after June 29th you can walk to the park in the evenings to take part in the Campfire Indian stories. They are reasonably priced and on the quieter end of the reservation but minutes from any activity you could want. The museum, Indian village and the Unto These Hills are great, don't miss visiting them."
