This video right here! I'm a Cherokee from the Oklahoma Reservation but I have family in Cherokee, NC and have visited them many many times, and I never knew about this road! I'm gonna make it a point to visit this year during the autumn and drive across this road. I bet the autumn cors are breathtaking through there. I also bet in June the river is gorgeous with all the hydrangea and other wild flowers Thank you so much for sharing! Again, I don't see how anyone can find anything about you all or your channel to hate on. They have to be jealous that you have a successful channel with decent monetization(which you all deserve).

My most favorite place in the world, wish I was there. Been there every year on summer vacation with my grandparents while they were able to take us, my little brother and me. Best memories of our lives. Hoping to visit again before we get too old to. Heaven must be like the Smokies, I can't imagine anything better.
