Review for Harrah's Cherokee Casino and Hotel Review For Essence Lounge Google User May 12 '18 at 16:13 This place is enormous. If you like to gamble with your money, I guess this is for you. The food was nothing to write home about and very expensive. We just stopped for lunch and try a couple dollars on the slot machine. Now we can say we've been there and can find something better to do while in the area, like watch the elk just up the road. View full site to comment or like
