The Cloudland Hotel once sat atop Roan Mountain on the Tennessee-North Carolina border in northernmost Mitchell County. It opened in 1877. The views from the mountain which rises nearly 6,300 feet above sea level are amazing. Although the Cloudland Hotel was dismantled nearly a century ago, the mountain remains a thriving haven for hikers and campers. Circa 1915, the hotel closed, and today, outside of historical displays, only stray relics and traces of the old carriage road remain as a testament to its storied run. At the remains of this grand mountain hotel where hikers report seeing figures in the fog.
