Harrah's Cherokee – A Caesars Rewards Destination
"Resort is so large, going to a pool, or spa, or restaurant can be quite a walk. Staff wasn’t much help with directions. Casino is huge with many entrances/exits. It is a shame they have so few shows or nighttime entertainment. Room was nice and very clean."
