Rivers and springs are its own- *All water in Haywood County originates here.* Higher elevations provide this area with spectacular views, cooler temperatures and cleaner air. The Cliffhanger Rollercoaster is now open: Sept.24th/09. The "House of Horror" and the train that runs around the park and allows for great views of the mountains that surround Maggie is up and running. Great views from the train but the views from the top of the Rollercoaster, well, you will just have to see for yourselves! Mile after mile of rolling hills greet you just before you go speeding down and around sharp curves that give you the feeling you are going to be slung into Tennessee. *A rollercoaster with a thrill like no other.* **Views from the "top" of the mountain are breathtaking.**

A great day trip:

The Unique Benefits at this Chalet
One of my favorite things to do while at the cabin is to enjoy quiet evenings grilling or sitting out on the front deck in the wooden rockers enjoying the cool mountain breezes. There is plenty of room for children to play or for family walks. There is a play area with a slide, swings and an open field for running and playing while parents sit in the rockers on our front deck,enjoying a cup of fresh brewed coffee after enjoying another great day of activities in the Great Smoky Mountians. The cabin is easy access all seasons, no steep hills to drive and fully paved right up to the door with paved parking.
If you travel by motorcycle, car or have a trailor you will have no problem with access. Plus the drive to the cabin is beautiful. We have been blessed with this mountain home. It is as we like to say,"As close to heaven as you can get with two feet on the ground."
We are 2 miles from Ghost Town.
On July 4th.'2009'the "Cliffhanger",rollercoaster opened. It goes 52 miles an hour. It feels as if you are going to go off the side of the mountain. (The views are unbelievable as you travel up to the top and then "drop" down at tremendous speeds.) You pay one price, and if you are brave enough, you can ride it as many times as you like. There is not another ride like this in the South East. It is a scary ride, a beautiful ride,(you can see mile after mile of mountains from the top), and one you will never forget. I know, I rode the first rollercoaster up at Ghost Town many years ago! I still remember the feeling of dropping off the side the mountain and being slung around at tremendous speeds. I thought I just might land in Tennessee.
Everyone should ride it at least once! Just to know the thrill! There are rides, can-can dancers, shows and shops:A one of a kind Western theme park with cowboys, a shoot out and even an undertaker. A great,old fashion family oriented experience for all ages, LOts of fun! It's like stepping into the past!
Located 10 minutes from the cabin. A great way to explore the beauty of the Great Smoky Mountains. Picnic, hike the many trails or just enjoy nature.
Valley bought out by the Park Service to preserve old homes and churches as well as the beauty of natural setting. Scenic drive, picnic and enjoy viewing Elk, Deer, Wild Turkeys and other wildlife.

Home of legendary Raymond Fairchild. Enjoy great Bluegrass music,food and dance.
Western Theme Park. Stroll through the saloons or watch a gun fight.There is even an undertaker who hauls off the "Bad guys." Lots of rides, plenty of food and great views.
Breath-taking 360 degree views of mountain after mountain vistas.See over a 52 mile distance on a clear day from visitor center or hike the 1/2 mile trail for angelic views.
Some of the highest trails in eastern nc. Nature provides snow much of the Winter season but snow machines make sure that every day is a good ski day. The mountain views are *Breath-taking*
Falls located 5 minutes from the cabin. Stop and enjoy the solitude and sounds of water as it cascades down the valley. There is a nice trail for those who want to spend some time on foot.
For those who want a different Winter experience try Tony's Tube World. A blast for all ages. Tube down snow-covered lanes. From young to not so young, great fun.
Located in Cherokee,20 minutes from the cabin. Performed in a large outdoor theater; this historic outdoor drama tells the true story of the Cherokee people and the "Trail of Tears."
Feel a little lucky? Try your hand at the Casino, enjoy the many restaurants available and enjoy top of the line entertainment.
Golf in the mountains at Maggie Valley Club. Beautiful range with magnificient views. One of the many mountain golf courses available in the area.

Maggie Valley Chalet
Our chalet is clean and well maintained.(I am an RN, these things are important.)We want your stay to pass your expectations.We have great family memories here & hope you soon will too! The chalet is very comfortable & close to many attractions. We all need to get away and head for the hills sometimes, and I do every chance I get.
My name is Rebecca and not only do I handle the rentals for the chalet,but I also love Flyfishing. Just one of many outdoor activities that can be enjoyed while staying at the chalet.
The cabin was bought by Mary and Jesse Carraway.
My parents,two people with deep faith and a respect for conservation, the enjoyment of the mountains and all its natural resources. Values they have passed along to thier children and grandchildren. My father is still healthy & enjoys going up to the cabin with our family. We keep the cabin in top shape. We want our guests to feel welcome and comfortable.(Often when guests leave, I get a call saying they enjoyed thier stay. Mostly due to the many conveniences and that little touch that says,"WE care, we want your stay to be fun,comfortable and relaxing."
Please sign guest book in the cabin.
We have a very efficient maintenance service that ensures the cabin is clean and ready when guests arrive. They are only a phone call away should any need arise during your stay.
My father,myself and our entire family visit the cabin frequently which ensures eveything is well maintained.
We love our cabin in Maggie Valley and we love Maggie Valley; our hope is that our guests will too.
