I am considering making my next Seven Stars trip to Harrah's Cherokee in North Carolina.

I know that carolinajacket goes there. Perhaps others here do, as well.

I've never been to North Carolina before.

Questions:

1) How is the property?

2) Are there any good restaurants there? Will I have a hard time spending $500 on food with my folio credit?

3) Is there a lot for a tourist to do in the general area? Even if some of the stuff is a few hundred miles away, I'm okay with that.

I don't care so much about the gambling there, as I probably won't play while on my Seven Stars trip.
