Harrah's Cherokee Valley River Hotel & Casino – A Caesars Rewards Destination

8/10 Good

"All the staff members were friendly and helpful. Our room was clean. Linens were very clean including towels. However, the pillows were terribly uncomfortable. They were super hard and lumpy. The bathroom tiles on the walls need more attention to remove the mildew. Other than that, you can have a quiet night’s sleep."

Days Inn by Wyndham Murphy

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay."

Nantahala Village

8/10 Good

"Wasn't told restaurant and pool was closed. They closed lobby at 5. Clearly cabin upkeep isn't priority, railings are rotting. The person that checked us in didn't know much about the area. At 300 a night with no amenities was very sad"

“Jessie's Patch" Tiny House Sleeps 6 With Private HOT TUB

10/10 Excellent

"Property is just as listed. It was so comfortable for my husband and myself. We didn’t use loft area. We were able to bring our pup. I don’t think more than 3 people would be comfortable but perfect for us."

Historic Tapoco Lodge Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The place is beautiful, the food is good, the staff was super helpful and nice. The location is fantastic to ride great roads. The cabins could use some updating but really that was nothing. Highly recommend."
