FAQs
- What's the Dress Code? Dressy casual. Mind the heels, it'll be on not-so-flat grass. If you have ankles of steel, go for it.
- Should I bring cash? Yes, most of the local shops in the area only take cash. You won't need to worry about cabins or chain restaurants and gas stations. But we hope you'll support the locals.
- Do Native Americans still live in the area? Yes! The Cherokees in Western North Carolina today descend from those who were able to hold on to land they owned, those who hid in the hills, defying removal, and others who returned, many on foot. Gradually and with great effort, they have created a vibrant society, a sovereign nation of 100 square miles where people in touch with their past and alive to the present preserve timeless ways and wisdom. Visit Cherokee -- it is only 1 hour's drive away with the most beautiful views of the Smoky Mountains. Find all the info at http://www.cherokee-nc.com/index.php
