Notes |
Frontier Land was an entertainment park in Cherokee, North Carolina, which operated from 1962 to 1982. It was based on 19th-century Native American and mountain man themes, and included a narrow gauge railroad and numerous carnival rides, exhibits, and demonstrations. It was replaced by a short-lived Magic Waters Fun Park. In 1995 Harrah's Cherokee Hotel and Casino was built on the site. |
