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.  

    Ms. Setzer died in 1979 at age 88 but to honor her the town of Maggie Valley has two women who take turns walking around in the period costume of Maggie Setzer.  A yellow prairie bonnet, red ankle length skirt, green blouse and yellow apron.  They stroll the streets of Maggie chatting to visitors and waving to passing cars so keep your eyes open when your here for one of our "Maggie's"!

Since that time Maggie has seen the opening of several major attractions. Ghost Town in the Sky was one of the first theme parks to open in North Carolina in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Maggie Valley is close to all the majoe attractions of Western North Carolina including the Biltmore Estate, Wheels Through Time Museum, Deals Gap and the Tail of the Dragon. of all the Maggie Valley Motels, A Holiday Motel is one of the closest Maggie Valley Motels to the Maggie Valley Festival Grounds.
