Waiting on 2 hotel quotes for the Cherokee area to come in. I already have 3 others.

Just like Colorado, the Labor Day weekend rates are substantially higher in the Cherokee area. Harrahs Casino has something HUGE going on and has purchased 400 rooms at non Harrahs hotels in the area. Harrahs Casino Friday, Saturday and Sunday rates are $499 per night on that Labor Day weekend.

The rates are much less the week prior, however this would force both events to occur on the same dates.

Please be patient, just trying to make it affordable for as many as possible and logistically appealing for those that want to attend both events.
I have discovered that in the last 2 years Hotel rates have gone up. Microtel Franklin NC wants $159 each night for Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Trying to get $75-$80 for Wednesday and Thursday, $95-$105 for Friday and Saturday
