My best friend and I plan a yearly trip together and this year we chose Cherokee and the surrounding area. Our hotel was very clean and comfortable. The amenities were up to date and the heat worked like a charm, even with very frigid weather. We also had the opportunity to see Elk in the area and snow! Overall, the hotel experience was great!
