BBQ and enjoying the outdoors. Any other answer is just unacceptable!
The first suggestion for one of the best BBQ meals in the area is to drive 20 minutes to Dillsboro, NC to eat at Haywood Smokehouse. They’re best known for their signature sauces, and there are at least 10 of them to try!
Peter’s Pancakes & Waffles is another popular spot, good for poker players looking to roll out of bed at noon. If you’re going to be eating all day, it’s probably smart to burn some of those calories off on the trails.
A huge draw for poker players travelling to Cherokee is the scenery and hiking trails. There are over 800 miles of trails to cover, with the Great Smoky Mountains National Park being the most popular spot. From fishing to swimming, to tubing and doing the popular rope swing, there’s something for everyone.
Another popular spot is the Sequoyah National Golf Club, a beautiful mountain course with views that are worth the price of admission. If none of this appeals to you, Cherokee Casino does have a bowling alley
