The location was great, we were visiting from England UK, initially starting in Gatlinburg and visiting Bryson City just for the night for the polar express which was about a pleasant 15min walk away.

    Typical motel on the road near all Cherokee attractions and shops. The balcony overlooking the Oconaluftee River is very relaxing and we were able to sleep with the balcony door open without AC, which we really enjoyed. We went to the open air theater and the Cherokee village, the Qualla shop has authentic handicrafts, the others sell Chinese stuff.

    This location has the most amazing balcony overlooking the river. The place is always spotless. I once left some of my personal belongings at the motel before I made it out of Cherokee they called and had it waiting in the front office. We always stay here when we come to the mountains.
