Trailborn Highlands, Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy

Days Inn by Wyndham Cherokee Near Casino
8/10 Good
"Right across the street from the casino. 5 min walk."
Balsam Mountain Inn
10/10 Excellent
"The inn is absolutely beautiful. Loved the huge front porch with the resident yellow cat, the game/puzzle room, and all the antiques in the hallways. The breakfast that was included was delicious and the dining area is beautiful as well. I was surprised how cool the inn stayed without any air conditioning. The ceiling fan and open windows kept us comfortable all night, even on the 2nd floor in August! The only downside was the mattress in our room - it was extremely firm with not much padding. My daughter is a junior at WCU and I've stayed at several hotels in the area, but this was by far my favorite. I'll definitely be back!"
Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Cherokee / Casino by IHG
8/10 Good
"Very clean and updated rooms."
