Maggie Valley
In the early years, Maggie Valley was known for its
farming community. As more and more people
discovered its lush green valleys, high mountains
and cool summer climate, the valley became a summer
mecca for people seeking relief from the heat of
cities and flatlands. Named for one of the daughters
of the community’s first postmaster, Maggie Valley
has since developed as a national and international
destination for tourists.
Year-round, visitors will never experience a lack of
activities. Entertainment from Blue Grass music to
good old-fashioned square dancing and clogging;
dining experiences from diners to fine dining;
outdoor activities from horseback riding to downhill
skiing; and family attractions from the zoo to an
automobile and motorcycle museum. And a visit to
Haywood County would not be complete without a visit
to Cataloochee Valley, the home of the Elk Preserve.
