Do you like cheap souvenirs, gambling, strip malls, crowds, and surreal, offensive kitsch? If so, then Cherokee is the place for you. If you don''''t like these things, however, stay as far away from Cherokee as you can. Unfortunately, if you''''re going into the Smoky Mountains National Park from the south, you almost have to go through it. The simple existence of this eyesore on the edge of one of our most beautiful (and grossly overcrowded) national parks is disturbing to me. Even more disturbing is how crowded the place is. Just my opinion, but I found absolutely nothing of any redeeming value here.
