The Valley was named after Maggie Mea Setzer Pylant on May 10, 1904. Since it was her father John Sidney Setzer who wrote the United States postal service asking for permission to build a post office in their area. At the time they were not even a town so they had no town name. Mr. Setzer was told they would have to be an established town before they could set up a post office. They informed him to submit three names and they would pick one, her father submitted his three daughters names. They sent him back their choice, Maggie so the town became Maggie Valley. |

Smooth, gentle slopes like Easy Way and Rabbit Hill, serviced by a triple chairlift, gives beginners the elbowroom they need to learn the basics and practice their skills. Intermediate skiers and snowboarders find plenty of action on Rock Island Run and Lower Omigosh, while seasoned experts can face the steepness found on Upper Omigosh.
