What's ironic is your video of where I started my early days of travelling to where I semi retired years later in quartzsite Arizona for 2 years before going on my Bucketlist Adventures Tour on a bicycle tour/ride.

Cherokee is ok. Its not the greatest.
I'm only 78 miles from Cherokee and I love the ride through the Nantahala Gorge on my way there! Went there a lot as a child!
I love Cherokee!!!! There is also an Indian village there where you can watch real Indians make bakers, tools, and weapons. And in the summer they perform a live drama called “Unto These Hills” a story of the trail of tears

Thanks for the tour, I enjoyed it, south east Kentucky here. I’ve been there a long time ago. My wife and I spent our honeymoon in Gatlinburg a few years ago, lets see, about 44 years ago i believe. We were married 7-7-77. Thanks 😊👍🏻
I Love Cherokee! I spent my honeymoon there lol. Hope to visit again someday.
If you have the time Maggie Valley has a great museum called Wheels Through Time. Motorcycles and Automobiles most displays will start and run
A favorite family vacation for us since the 1950’s. We are going back next month.
I'm glad you came to visit. I was born and raised here. I am part Cherokee. Grew up with a lot of my heritage here.
We Love RVerTV - Best TV On KZread. Thank you Russ.
I'm Cherokee from the eastern band, love it up there i moved when i was in high school we have 300 acres a few miles from the reservation such a beautiful place my truly happy place
They reintroduced Elk into that area. Beautiful animals

We stayed at the baymont a few years back. The elk were right across the road on a fence line in town. Really cool to see them about 20-30 feet away.
Always loved visiting Cherokee. Nice place
My wife and I visited Cherokee numerous times in the 90's. We had a friend that lived in Knoxville and we use to drive over the Smokies to Cherokee every time we visited them. On one of our trips we found that there was a reconstructed reservation and took the guided tour through it. It was very interesting and we learned a lot from the guides.

Miigwech and Wado and Mahalo for this statement of yours. Cherokee NC is a very special place to all the Native Americans (American Indians) who reside in the Deep South still. I just love going to Cherokee NC and feeling 200 years of living history inside of me. The reason that Cherokee NC is a special place to the Native Americans in the Deep South is because there are not many reservations in the Deep South. I believe there may be 5 or 6 Federally Recognized Nations in the Deep South. Take care and thank you for recognizing the beauty of Cherokee NC and all it has to offer there. :)
Great lemonade in Cherokee 👍
What A Memorable Video 🎉🙏 Greetings from Kakinada Andhra Pradesh India 👍
The amazing history of the first people of America.
We were just there in May 2022. From California, will never forget it, beautifuly done.
Those pink flowers are rhododendrons. An evergreen shrub. They are the state flower of my state - Washington.
Hi Russ. The pink flowered bushes are Rhododendron’s. I was born and raised in beautiful NC, but living in TX now. Mom moved us to FL when I was 16. I went to Cherokee when I was 14, and the beauty is still burned into my memory. Seeing the gently rolling hills with all the green trees brought tears to my eyes. I will always be a Tarheel!! Thanks for a great video!! ♥️❣️🙏🏼❣️♥️

Cherokee is my Happy Place
I just came back from a road trip and I was blown away by how much I loved Cherokee. When I first planned my trip, it was an after thought and I stayed there for a day. I wished I skipped over Atlanta (What an awful city) and stayed here for another 3 days. I would definitely stay here again when I visit the Smokey's again.
I spend couple days in Cherokee with my family was my first time I’m really enjoying I hope coming back soon I’m really recommend Thank you god for this beautiful place in this world loved much 🙏🙏
What a beautiful town. Thanks for the tour.
Now you're getting into my neck of the woods. Southern West Virginia checking in. 😊👍👍
As an older Canadian watching your travels is making me ache for adventure to follow your trail ..
Worked in Cherokee for about 6 weeks. Very nice place!
It was a wonderful place during the 70s, especially with the frontier land theme park. Now it's just shops owned by people from India 🇮🇳, not Cherokee Indians

We use to visit in 1965 when I was born, spent our honeymoon there in October 1986. It’s totally depressing to go through there now. I still visit Mingus Mill. I miss the Christmas shop which is a bicycle shop now. A dead town for gambling now, nothing for kids to do.
I haven't been here in years...brings back memories.
That pink flowered shrub was a rhododendron. Very lovely. You could have big snow there but rarely.
Visited Cherokee, N.C. last September, it was the most unwelcoming town I've ever visited "(
What a beautiful place. Small town America right there. Love the museum. thanks
Another great video. Be safe out there.
Lovely place.
Neat little town, surrounding countryside is beautiful. Thanks for today’s tour.
Absolutely Loved This Place ❤
I live in NC but have not visited that area since I was a child probably 65 or more years ago. My father loved going to that area of NC. Thanks for the memories Russ!!!
The Cherokee Indians Run the casino there..Enjoy the ride Russ..Keep on Rockin..
Go to Conley Creek in Whittier camp for 14 days that road will take u to Franklin then u can camp at shooting creek for 14 days. I lived here for 20 years
👍👍 Very Interesting. The similarity and the differences of Native Americans, West and East.
You're really covering some land this year :-) take care.
I have gone to Cherokee since 1965 and we took our children there when they could barely walk. They are now 53 and 56. We took our grand children and now have 4 greats to take and enjoy the area. I have seen so many changes and not all are good. I still love the area and love to stay somewhere on the river with a balcony. Very peaceful place to be.
Welcome to my beloved Appalachian Mountains, hope you make it to Va and Pa. The plant was a rhododendron rhey grownwild in the appalachians and will actually createa a canopy over a trail
Russ was there 35 years ago,believe it has changed a lot, we camped around the area back in late 70's and 80s. Enjoy your posts. Bob here in Maryland
Thank you for stopping at the veterans memorial. Freedom is not free.
Love Cherokee NC. 🪶🦅🪶
I agree. Gorgeous views and ❤️ the plushness of the green trees on the hills!
Those pink flowers are azaleas. Love the painted sidewalk!
Enjoyed the ride. Beautiful country. You’ll miss the greenery when you get back to the Desert. Be Safe!
Love the Cheerokee s, Love the Smokey Mountains. Going next week!. I'm so excited. We visited the Museum enjoyed it. Love them Smokey Mountains!!
My most favorite place on earth. I wish I were there now. I wish I could live there. Loved your video. It's most definitely a place to visit.
Afternoon Russ!
I love going to Cherokee. But I hope it keeps the feeling of being there. It's a beautiful place. Don't build too much. I remember the casino being built it's changed so much since the 90's.
I've been to Cherokee and that area for 50 years Maggie Valley was straight past the casino about 30 minutes it's a nice town too
Discovering beautiful places. Nice video. Thanks Russ 🚐
Beautiful setting.

Thanks for sharing enjoy the video definitely would like to visit the museum.
I’ve played in that river many, many times
Living in Arizona almost my whole life ... when I visit someplace with the odd color 'green' ... I can't help but stop and check it out. I would spend more time on the side of the road, than on the road ... loving being surrounded by that Arizona oddity ... 'green'
I used to tent camp in Cherokee many years in a row back in the 1970s. It was a big tourist town on the way over the mountain to Gatlinburg. When the new roads opened up, they bypassed Cherokee and the town went down hill for a time. Their answer to bring the tourists back was the casinos such as Harrahs. It was so much fun in the day. The Indian chief had a high presence in the town and would pose for pictures. I camped in the same area every year, which was on an island and all belongings had to be taken across the river by wheelbarrow to the campsites. Then I went back in the late 80s and the campground had been renovated into condos. I was heartbroken and cried. I guess time marches on and progress is ongoing. In all those years, I missed visiting the museum. Thanks for the walkthrough.
I have driven from the Smoky mountains to Cherokee several times my goal now is to ride through the Smokies and Cherokee on my motorcycle .
those flowers are rhododendron
My parents ate pinto beans and corn bread there. The swing bridge my siblings and I love I'm the 80's.
I love Cherokee, NC. I am 1/16th Cherokee. My great, great grandmother was full-blooded Cherokee. If you go through town and follow the right road it will take you into Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Then into Sevierville, Tennessee, where Dollywood is. I love that area.

Some of that homemade icecream and pie towns blueberry pie would be great 👍🤠🌴🇺🇸
We always visit for a day while we're there .
My kid has a plot on a mountain top just over the GA boarder. Spectacular beauty. Glad to see you out East.
We went to GB / PF TN a year or so ago, on our way back to Florida, we stopped there, did some of the shops, hang out of the river, my kids had a blast playing there. They thought walking in the river was amazing. It was a very pretty area. We are planning a NC trip soon, maybe we will hit that area again
Mom would go to the cherokee bingo on vacations. Last one was 1990 I think
I like that you explore Native American history in your adventures. Keep up the awesome videos!
I've been in every place in Cherokee Its got a feeling you just feel good there. Been so many times . The play is one of our favorites along with the museum.
Wow, Cherokee sure grew up since I was there in 1975! Went horseback riding up there. So beautiful.
Green Green Green very nice town nothing is green like that here in Southern California......
Great stop!
Making me homesick! I'm from Hickory. Love these little towns scattered all through the mountains of NC. Oh yeah, everybody needs some homemade ice cream every now and then! If you haven't see the play the Cherokee do there called "Unto These Hills" I HIGHLY recommend you see it some time. Very eye opening and informational. I'm not a play connoisseur, but I really enjoyed this play, and learned A LOT!
I had a blast. I was there yesterday,i also went to mingo fall to see the beautiful waterfall
Beautiful Cherokee Nation! THANKS for Sharing!Glad to see you ,continue to see the world. Enjoy your journey
Wow we get too travel with RVTV my grandkids are riding shotgun with Russ great video we always enjoy it’s cute once’s I play your music my youngest come running saying Russ Russ travel well and be safe lance and family
Check out the play , Unto these hills. It's a play put on by the locals , it's awesome.
Cool video Russ. That museum was fantastic. I see where the different tribes were which is cool. For the Choctaw tribe, they had a picture of a Choctaw chief who became a Brigadier General and fought in the War of 1812.
Excellent we love it.
I appreciate you taking us around this Beautiful country and giving us narrations of your travels. I always look forward to your posts. The family and I love to watch together. Stay blessed and safe out there

CHEORKEE NORTH CAROLINA a BEAUTIFUL state been their from GATLINBURG TENNESSEE WAY WISH I COULD MOVE THERE
Hubby's family folklore says they have some Cherokee blood (courtesy of 5 civilized tribes removal to OK on his Dad's side). Thank you for such a wonderful tour of their museum.
so interesting
Unto These Hills is a wonderful play to go see. Cherokee is about to have it's day again, they really need to invest in the city, Atlanta Georgia metro has quadrupled and many new people have not heard of the entire corner of 441 .
When you said you were hungry, I thought we could at least taste the ice cream but I didn't even get a sample... :) Thanks for the awesome video!
Hey Russ, I was just through Cherokee this past Friday! I love your videos of the desert southwest... Greetings from Bristol, TN!
