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

8/10 Good
"The only issue we had was with communication. Front desk staff didn't tell us that you had to schedule room cleaning. So on our third day I called a bit concerned and they told me I had to schedule it. On our 2nd day, we left for the day and I got a call from the front desk saying "you checked out but your stuff is still in the room" and I had to tell her we didn't check out! Other than that, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay."

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Nantahala Bay?
The best time to visit Nantahala Bay is during the spring and autumn months for pleasant weather and fewer crowds.

Spring, particularly from April to May, brings mild temperatures and the blooming of wildflowers, making it ideal for outdoor activities like hiking and kayaking. The average temperatures range from 15°C to 25°C, superb for exploring the natural beauty without the intense summer heat. This period is great for couples looking for a romantic getaway with scenic views and comfortable conditions for enjoying nature.

Autumn, from September to October, offers cooler temperatures and stunning fall foliage, creating a picturesque backdrop for your trip. The temperatures are similar to spring, usually between 10°C and 20°C, making it excellent for enjoying the walking trails and the serene lake.
Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline – this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Nantahala Bay hotel for you.
How much is the nightly rate at a Nantahala Bay hotel?
Hotel prices in Nantahala Bay often vary, but you can find a great deal on Expedia. Different factors affect nightly hotel rates, such as the time of year or the days of the week you want to book. To find the best deals for your stay, be flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.
