In 2009, the council OK’d alcohol and in 2012 traditional card games were introduced with dealers. Boy, how things have changed in Cherokee. When the casino opened there was no alcohol, no card dealers and no major hotel. When I was in high school in the small town of Robbinsville the Cherokee Harrah’s Casino broke ground. As I get more information about this particular golf course I will be sure to pass it along. It is important to note that this is not one of the golf courses in Murphy or Hayesville. From what I understand, this is a private golf course that has been a mainstay in the area for quite some time. They partnered with Sequoyah National in Cherokee but that course was built the same time as the Cherokee Harrahs Casino was being built. I was also informed that the Cherokee Indian Tribe might be looking to partner with a golf course closer to Tennessee or even in Tennessee. After eating lunch with a friend at Doyle’s I spent a few minutes taking photos of the construction site on the left hand side of the road when heading into Murphy from Andrews.

I actually stayed on the Upper Nantahala River but was able to make the trip over to Murphy. UPDATE: During the early part of August 2014 I was able to spend a few days in the mountains of North Carolina. Just Google Map search “Walmart Murphy, NC” and you will be less than two miles from the casino location. It is just past the WalMart and Snap-On Tools heading towards Andrews, NC on US Highway 19-74-129. If you plan to visit the Murphy, NC casino location below is the exact spot in which it is location. UPDATE: If you are looking for Murphy, NC Casino job information click the link. They have not heard or Robbinsville, Bryson City or even Franklin. Instead, I use the question, “have you heard of Murphy?” Most of the time, those not from the mountains of North Carolina have heard of Murphy.

While I grew up in Topton and went to Robbinsville High School most people have never heard of those specific areas. Having lived in the Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill area for over a decade I can honestly say I have had to describe the small mountain town I grew up in to thousands of people. Murphy to Manteo is how I often describe where I grew up. Grand opening announced for September 28th, 2015.
