About the host

Hosted by Jo Ann Ray

Host profile image
I am an enrolled member of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians and have lived here most of my life. I was born and raised within a hundred yards of this home. I love nature and the outdoors and there is no better place to have these experiences than in and around Cherokee.

Why they chose this property

This was my mom's home. She passed away a few years ago but she loved the peace and quiet. What better way to honor her memory than to share with others what she loved so much.

What makes this property unique

Listen to the Ravens Ford River as you relax. Sit on the porch and watch the fire flies or gaze at the night sky. Decompress and relieve the stress. To me, this is what getting away is all about. Slow down the pace and take time to enjoy what makes you happy.
