I can only hope that my words truly do the facility and staff at Cherokee Mountain Cabins justice. We booked the venue sight unseen, only going off of the photos. LET ME TELL YOU.....
. the photos are amazing, but the facility is even better. My husband and I walked into the venue and immediately knew it was perfect. The stress of locating the perfect venue was gone. We had found it right here at Cherokee mountain cabins. We had a small ceremony with 40ish people in October, and they all stayed for a long weekend, spread out over 12 cabins on the property. EVERYONE in our wedding complimented their stay and their cabins while they were there. The staff is a 10 out of 10. Shannan, Jodi, Jaime, Jonathon, along with all of the other staff members, made sure that our experience was one to remember. We live in Florida so being far away from the venue made locating some vendors difficult, but Shannan made sure that every detail did not go unnoticed and that our special day, even with a hurricane threating, was absolutely magical. The entire day was perfect, and the ceremony and reception went off without any issues. Jodi ensured that our guests were all well taken care of and handled any issues immediately and professionally, leaving everyone with the feeling that they were a priority. Jonathon, the manager, and Jaime the assistance manager both made themselves available when an unfortunate situation arose beyond their control, including showing up early in the morning to cut up a tree that had fallen, blocking the roadway for the upper cabins on the mountain. We can't wait to return, and I think that our guests will do the same. If you are wondering if you should book this venue, the answer is YES!! It is everything that fairytales in the mountains are made of. The venue, the river, the cabins, and the staff are 5 stars, and I am blessed to cherish these memories for a lifetime.
