- We visited Ghost Town in the Sky Village in Maggie Valley North Carolina and looked around at what is left. We have great memories of visiting Maggie Valley growing up.

I remember going to Maggie Valley, Cherokee and Ghost Town with my family many, many years ago. When I was young Cherokee was the place to go and you just traveled through Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg to get to Cherokee. How times have changed. I enjoy your videos and really appreciate you both proclaiming your faith openly. Wishing you many blessings.
Thanks so much for the comment and sharing your memories. God bless!!
Best memories of riding that ski lift to the top of the mountain. My Mom and her friend were scared of the ski lift so they rode the train. It looked like it went straight up the side of the mountain! And the cowboys at the top doing their shows. I miss it all!
I'll be in Gatlinburg tomorrow. ❤😊
I remember my parents buying me black bears with leashes in the Cherokee shops. What a fantastic time and memory as a child. I'm 50 now...
Oh my goodness, I've always wondered if Ghost Town was still around. Sad to find out it's not. My husband and I went there many times before and after we married in '71. Kids from '74 - '85 always enjoyed it, too, when we would bring them. We always took the chair left, and got our picture taken and then you could buy it when you got to the top. The saloons with the can-can dancers and the daily gunfights were all so special. A couple of places to have pictures made in all the western clothes and hats. In the later years that we went, there was amusement rides in an area that were a lot of fun. The whole experience was great. Thanks for this video!
Our elementary school took us to Ghost Town. I don’t remember exactly how old i was, maybe 45-50 years ago. I recall the shootout on Main Street by the staff. It was my first chairlift ride. Loved it!
We loved the gun battles on the mountain!
I remember those too.
I love Maggie Valley!! When we go to the Smokey’s we always visit Maggie Valley. Ive been to Ghost Town in the sky a few times as a kid, late 60’s and 70’s. We actually got to take our kids in the early 90’s. I’m so glad they got to experience it before it closed. I wish they would reopen it just as it was back then.
Thanks for sharing the memories with us Lynnette.
I do too I went in the 70s and in 95 it had changed a lot. Went again in 2012 I believe they was trying to do a religious scene that did not go over well.
When I was a child, my family went to Maggie Valley for vacation every summer and I remember going to Ghost Town multiple times. It’s sad that Ghost Town no longer exists!
Thanks for sharing Lisa!
What a wonderful representation you’ve given our sweet, little valley town. Thank You! I’m so happy you enjoyed your day here. So many people loved Ghost Town. It currently is in talks & perhaps new ownership. An article in the paper last month told us that news. Since I’ve lived here that’s happened twice before & nothing ever came of it. We’ll see. We are so blessed to live here. Karen, a week from Sat we’re taking a short trip to Lancaster, PA to see Esther at Sight & Sound. But, thanks to you, we’re going to make a short stop to Big Stone Gap so I can relive those beautiful books. 🥰
So glad you enjoyed it Wendy thank you! We really enjoyed our visit and will let Karen know of your detour through Big Stone.
Every year we went to Maggie Valley for our summer vacation. We stayed at the fabulous Scottish Inn! 😂. I am disappointed to see the gift shops are no longer tacky tourist draws and are just craft shops now. We got some GREAT and bizarre souvenirs. I’m so sorry my kids will never know how great Ghost Town was. I had my best memories there!
Thanks so much for sharing with us.
I remember ghost town advertising on channel 13 a North Carolina TV station we used to get on antenna tv,
I loved Ghost Town as a kid...I'm 62 now and miss that place...
We miss it to Mike...thanks for sharing.
My mom lives in Maggie Valley and it is a tremendous place to visit. Friendly people, great weather, and great scenery. I can't wait for my next trip back to the mountains.
Sounds great!
I'm English and used to come over every 6 months. Probs my favourite place on Earth, and y'all are wonderful friendly people there,
I've been to Ghost town in the Sky many times during it's Hay Days.
Oh how I loved the little Amusement Park.
I miss it too.
Don’t know where my comment went I just left but came back to say if you go behind the last shops you visited there is a beautiful setting area and creek in the back. God Bless
We've heard that other comments are disappearing also. Thank you for reposting. We will look for this on our next visit. God bless!!
@@FridaysForever it’s TH-cam. It’s happened on my channel also. I just came back to post on the first comment about the place behind the gift shop and other comment was gone. Y’all have blessed weekend!
I have great memories of Ghost Town in the Sky in the early 80’s as a kid!! The rides, the Indians doing their dances, etc!
Great memories!
I loved Ghost Town. I visited many times.
Aaahhhh, memories of Ghost Town. Late 60's and early 70's visits. The gunfights in the streets, can-can girls dancing on the bar, animal petting zoo, small rides (like today's carnival rides), just a special place and great memories for my childhood from the dates mentioned above.
Exactly our thoughts as we drove in the parking lot Brad. Thanks for sharing.
I have visited Maggie valley often it is one of my favorite places. I even met popcorn Sutton there years ago. I hadn't been in years and it was wonderful to see this video thanks for sharing
Thanks so much for watching!
We have been staying there for the last couple of years. We normally stay in Gatlinburg or pigeon forge
Maggie Valley is a nice change of pace, I like both areas though. I would recommend eating at Joeys Pancake house and Snappy’s Italian restaurant . We usually stay at Country Cabins
Thanks so much for the recommendations.
I think we'd almost make the drive from Florida to Maggie Valley just to eat at Joey's Pancake House.
@@RollinIsbell now that’s what I call dedication . We live about 2 hrs away from them but have never driven there just to eat only when we stay in Maggie Valley
Wheels Through Time has to be one of the best attractions in Maggie Valley! I spent 4 1/2 hours there this past fall and I could've spent the whole day at least! They have some of the rarest motorcycles in the country there. The family and staff are awesome too. Sad so many of these wonderful, simple, attractions have fallen by the wayside. We had two such parks on either side of my hometown and one was put out of business by the other, which became a six flags...Having said this, Maggie Valley is a charming valley too, so pretty.
Pretty sure this is closed completely down as of 2020-2021. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'd love to take my kids to this if it is safe and operational again.
Love Maggie Valley! I've spent many a vacations in the area. I do remember several trips to Ghost Town when young. I believe Dollywood and the rise of Pigeon Forge/ Gatlinburg area is part of the cause for it's demise but would love for it to come back.
Thanks so much for sharing Paul!
I never thought about it but you are probably right . I love Dollywood now.
Hey guys that’s awesome what a wonderful little town ❤️👍✌️🙏🏻
I’m 45 and I remember being at Ghost town in the sky the summer of 1985.
I'm from Argentina. I lived in Maggie Valley for 3 months while working at Cataloochee Ski Center. It was a "Work&Travel" program. Best memories, hope to come back some day. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing!
Love the shots in this!
We always stopped at Maggie’s Valley, Ghost Town, Cherokee! Got lots of pics from Ghost Town, and been there recently. There’s actually a court case going on for Ghost Town, and who it actually belongs to, and a push to open it back up! 😊
Stopped at many of those shops!
1985…11 years old. They allowed me to walk 1/4 of the way up that hill to retrieve my dad’s camera case that fell when we were on the ski lift. People yelled it’s a long walk up. I made it and somehow found the case in the tall grass. Walking back down was just as tiring as going up and thankfully have pictures of it because I remember that family trip very well!!
Thanks for sharing the memory Jennifer!
Awesome video! While in Maggie Valley, check out Cataloochee Valley in the Great Smokey Mountains National Park. This is where the elk are. Might see a bear too. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Ray!
My step-dad worked at Ghost Town in the summers as a college student. I never got to go, but have fond memories of Silver Dollar City and Santa Land!
Thanks so much for sharing Kelley!
I grew up visiting Maggie Valley and going to those gift shops. I was little and went to Ghost Town, barely remember it. I also visited the little zoo called Soco Gardens by the Maggie gift shop. Don’t think it is there now. Thanks for another sweet video!
Thanks for sharing!!
Im 32 and remember vividly going to Ghost Town when i was maybe 11ish. Was scared to death of the hill to get up to everything, the roller coaster was called the red devil i think which i was terrified to ride as well (my brother was fearless though and he was younger🤣), and the gun fights, shops, can can dancers. Wow so many memories! So sad to see it in ruins
Hi Anny! What great memories of Ghost Town. Thanks for sharing.
A much needed relaxing escape to Maggie Valley on this Friday morning. I always learn new things from the videos! I had never heard God Paused. That is so cool and has to be true with the beauty of Maggie Valley. I used to see Maggie walking the sidewalks waving in the yellow and red outfit. I unfortunately didn’t discover Ghost Town until one of the openings in maybe 2006. I loved it as an adult the view from the top is unforgettable. My cousin and I would beg to go to Ghost Town growing up along with Frontier Land in Cherokee. I still have no idea where that was located in Cherokee. I noticed you guys may have came into Maggie Valley from the interstate. It made me want Hot Springs!
Hi Michael! Thank you so much for sharing all those great memories. We did come in from the interstate and yes we need to revisit the Hot Springs.
Hello there. If I'm not mistaken, Frontier Land in Cherokee was located where the casino is now.
@@robinhamrick8628 Thanks for letting me know that would be correct I’m sure because not a lot of change on that drive through Cherokee.
Received our Friday's forever t-shirts today. We love them!! Thank you so much 😊❤
Awesome Michelle! So good to hear and we hope you enjoy them.
Love watching you guys.!! I have so many memories of Ghost Town in the Sky and Maggie Valley. Still love driving through on our way to Cataloochee!
Thank you so much Angela!
Great video. We're heading that way later today. Hoping to see some snow and maybe do some snow tubing. Much different than here. Keep up the good work.
Thanks so much guys! We hope you have a great time in the area.
Wow, Maggie Valley is beautiful. Now on my bucket list to visit. Thank you for showing us how wonderful it is. Cheers
It really is! Our pleasure Helga.
Cool stuff, just enjoy that old time adventure attraction feeling from my Grandparents time. Thank you for sharing. Cool 😎
My wife and I spent July 4, 1964 at Ghost Town. It was before we got married. This brought back wonderful memories. She past away 7 years ago.
Thank you so much for sharing with us Lewis. We know your memories are wonderful and she is badly missed by you.
Yes, enjoyed Ghost Town in the Sky as a kid. Really loved the old west town and the shows they had. Thanks for taking us down memory lane. We love your channel! Watching your Smoky Mountain videos helps bridge the gap between our visits to that beautiful area. God bless!
Thanks so much for the comment. Our pleasure. God bless!!
Yes, I was there with my family back in 1968. My Dad and I went to the top and I still have that black and white photo they take as you arrival at the top. Great times back then.
We drive to Maggie Valley and love to stay at the Cardinal Inn. Then to breakfast at Joey's . Joey's will be closed every Wednesday now like just about every breakfast place there!
Thanks so much for sharing with us Susan.
Biggest pancakes I ever seen
I will be visiting maggie valley 7-20-23 though 7-23-23 for the hillbilly throwdown it will be my 1st time there I'm looking forward to the visit I'm from Martinsville Va 24112
Yes loved going there.
Love your Videos. Yes have been to Maggie Valley-Ghost Town mamay times as Young person. Then My two sonns enjoyed it. So sad it really is a ghost town now. Watched your video of Bryson City, NC. Now I am hooked. You all are the best! I'm from Tennessee but my husband and I raised our sons in Brtson Vity, Swain County, NC. God Bless. I feel that I will get to experience many places through you. I am a subscriber🥰
Many, Many Times. Loved the swings that threw you over the Mountainside. Loved the shootouts too!! Especially me working as an Undertaker since I was 12. Loved Digger. He could never size him for that coffin.
The road going through Maggie is a speed trap. I got a ticket for 65 in a 45mph zone. I was going 51 mph. Watch out for a dark gray Dodge Charger, officer Henderson, he'll lie like rug.
I was guilty before I walked into the courtroom.
My wife and I visited MV in 1969. Our #1 wedding anniversary. What memories!
Enjoy viewing NC. Notso much knick knacks. Prefer history and people
Maggie Valley looks SO pretty and quaint. And Mike, you're such a good sport to go in all the little shops with Karen. My husband is more of the "I'll just wait outside" type. Lol
My son will be in Maggie Valley at the festival grounds in Sept as one of the organizers of VWs in the Valley, so maybe I will try to make a little trip down too and check it out.
Rhonda, it is very tempting to just take a seat sometimes...haha. We hope you can make it with your son.
He wants to go in so she won't buy everything in the store
I was there! I rather ride the chairlift, not the railcar, we would stay at Elkkmont campground in TN. And spend the day at ghost town in the sky! Loved it, fond memories
Hey I really enjoyed this video!! My wife and I came here on our honeymoon July 28th 1979. I told Mary my wife that it looked stormy toward the top of the mountain when we were getting on the sky lift to go up. We have the pictures to show today taken from a kodak instamatic 110. When got about a little over half way up it came the awfulest storm of wind and rain and the wind blew so hard that the seat was swaying in the wind. The
rain poured down and when we got off we were completely soaked and water was squishing out of our shoes when we walked. We will never forget
that experience. I remember the people coming down the hill looked over at us laughing saying good luck, they knew we were going to get soaked. Thanks for this tour.
Kind of reminds me of Wears Valley and the Gatlingburg Arts & Crafts District.
Oh Maggie Valley!! I can believe the old saying. We love Maggie Valley, the scenery and hometown atmosphere just pulls you there.
So beautiful!
Is Pitter the Potter still there? Dennis is an old friend from the late 80s in Miami. If so, tell him I still have my mugs and use one every day
Went to it back in the 80's. Enjoyed the western shootout n. Country music show. Like riding the chairlift up top
Great video. Where is good place to stop for Sunday brunch/lunch in Maggie Valley?
Love it 😍Happy Holidays.. from the troops here at Health and Wellness 🇺🇲 Semper Fi
When my boys were little we use to go to Ghost Town, a couple of times. We loved it the re-enactments and all. Riding the rides and other shows. That was back in the 90’s. We traveled here many times with my in-laws. I sure miss those times. Great memories!
I was in maggie valley last week. 10/10/2022. But many years a go i went to Ghost Town in the Sky. I still have a souvenier photo they took of me on the chair lift. There was a western shoot out show on the main part of the park.
Been there along with my 8 siblings and Dad, loved it, so much fun, fun saloon shows!!!
WAS AT MAGGIE VALLEY TWICE.80S OR 90S. LOVED IT. JUST LIKE OPRYLAND CLOING ALL THE FUN PLACES.
There when I was 12 year old now I am 74 going back Wednesday aug 10th through 15th
Yess! I have wonderful memories of vacation there! So sad it’s gone! 😭❤️
My husband and i went a couple yrs ago and loved it. The hidden gem for us was carvers maggie valley resteraunt. So delicious!
Sounds great!
I remember taking my children there, riding the rides, walking through the western town. So many great memories.
I was there in the hayday, twas a craxzy time swimming In the johnson. I miss clint from time to time. I loved charlie too, we always hung out at the cloggin mosque. I miss you maggie
Thank you so much for this lovely video! My late husband and I used to vacation in that area every year back in the 80s, and that sky lift was the scariest ride for me! Poor Sam's arm had a bruise for days where I hung on for dear life! Love the mountains.
Thanks for sharing!
I met the young man who played Tom Sawyer in a show/movie back in the 60's up there on that mountain. Ghost Town in the Sky. I wish it remained open.
That's cool! We do too.
Great memories with my family in Maggie Valley, thanks for sharing!
Our pleasure!
Another great video! Sad to see Ghost Town just sitting there abandoned!
Thank you Billy! Yes, very sad.
Yes we went to The ghost town and Maggie Valley many times growing up..my Dad use to love that and Tweetsie Railroad too..🥰
I love my state and I love those mountain stores proud North Carolinian here 🖐️👍😎
Thx for this video...
I love to visit Maggie Valley! Mt Craft is my favorite.
I remembered going there many many times back in the 70's. My parents knew the managers/Owners. We stayed at their house on top of the mountain. Loved the gun fight on the street. You could watch them make salt water taffy in the candy shop. Saloons with dancing girls. Sometimes the cowboy actors would show up in the saloon and start another fight. COOL. Many different shops to visit Hats, shoes, clothes etc. I enjoyed the music with the banjo's. I sure miss those days. I am trying to locate the managers and or their kids. Had a great time there
How Cool! Thanks so much for sharing Lisa!!
Yes! My most precious memories of my childhood ❤️ we visited very often!
Was there as a kid around 1966 with my mom,
Dad and sister. Really thought the chair lift was cool.
Yes, it was a great experience especially when young.
I remember going to Ghost Town as a child and they would have child stars there in the summer. I met Jon Provost who played Timmy on the Lassie tv show. We also took our son when he was 3…he is now 41! Sad to see it as it is, now. Great memories of good times there.
Thanks so much for sharing those memories with us Ann!
We use to take our kids to Ghost Town in the Sky in the 90s. We loved it. They loved Santa Land to, we still go to Santa Land, now with the grandbabies. Love the Smokey Mountains period!!! Bless y'all stay safe.
Thanks for sharing the memories Cynthia! God bless!!
Have you been to Field of the Woods
Not yet Dee.
I can relate to your story so much as my dad took me and my twin brother as well between the ages of 7 and 10 I'm 49 the 15th of July. Me, my wife,Daughter & oldest grandson just went there and visited July 11th 2022 on our way home from Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg Tennessee. It brought back so many memories😊 my dad passed in 1998🙏 & this is a memory I will never forget our trip to Ghost Town Maggie Valley in the sky I remember being scared of the gun show and chair lift. Y'all take care ps. Love the video👍🏻
That's awesome memories Robby! Thanks for the comment and watching.
Nice sweatshirt, Hannah! GO BUCS!

We just moved here three years ago and we are waiting patiently for someone to please open Ghost Town up too!! Thanks for coming to visit our beloved community. Ive lived overseas and in 10 states... visited almost all the states here in the US.. This is hands down my FAVORITE place to live. Come back again!!
Thanks so much for sharing SmokyMountainGirl! Yes, we will be back.
If Ghost Town reopens, they will come see it..
I first went with my grandparents and cousin in 1987. The entire family, about 25 people, went back through Maggie Valley and Cherokee in 1990. We had. A last up at the Ghostown in the Sky
Thanks so much for sharing!
I love your videos!! I'm hooked! It's the first thing I look for in the morning. But what is with the copycat???? Yankeeinthesouth, and now I just saw a new one, Where's Timmy..they aren't very good. The guy in Where's Timmy complained that it was crowded but he and his wife are"big" people and they were pushing a two-seater baby carraige with two kids in it. Yeah, that will make it crowded!! Absolutely love your videos!!
Thanks for sharing Jim.
I remember going there when I was a child I love ghost town Maggie Valley always I loved watching the Gun fights in the street and I also love the saloon I hope it comes back I would love to visit again I enjoy watching your videos thank you have a blessed day
Thanks for sharing Curtis! God bless!!
So sad that ghost town in the sky has come to that , an old shell of the past. I remember my parents taking myself and my brothers back in 1977 watching the shootout in the street and riding all the rides. Now at 53 i took my kids up there about 17 yrs ago and GT was closed but they had a place on the opposite side of the road for tubing down the hill in January. Also remember bryson city had a train ride that took you on a tour and saw where they made the movie fugitive with Harrison ford. The smokies is just a beautiful place it takes the stress away from you and does something to your soul . Thanks for sharing👍👍
Thanks for sharing the memories. Our pleasure.
It looks like somebody is maintaining the grounds somewhat at ghost town,that indicates they intend to reopen it someday
We visit Maggie Valley almost every year to escape the Florida heat. Shoot ... we'd almost make the trip just to eat at Joey's Pancake House. And, we discovered a very talented potter at The Different Drummer Pottery. And, there are lots of great side trips to take from Maggie Valley ... Cataloochee Valley, Waterrock Knob, or just cruising the tunnels on the Blue Ridge Parkway keep us entertained for days.
Thanks so much for sharing. Yes, it's a great place to visit.
Looks like a great little spot. I love those old parks from years gone by.
We do too! Thanks for watching.
I rode the cable car when I was 11, 1984 and in my early 20s I visited..Ghost Town. Maggie's Valley.
Great memories!
Went to Ghost Town many times. Just saw a picture of me and brother on the Main Street, I was 15, I'm now 71, all my folks are gone now. Precious memories. Enjoyed seeing Maggie Valley again.
Thanks for sharing Ronnie!
I am originally from Central Illinois. I now live in coastal North Carolina. I love Maggie's Valley. My husband and used to ride motorcycle there and camp out. My heart is in Maggie's Valley. When ever I go there I find myself taking great breaths and feeling at home at last. I have pictures off ghost town from 1960s. There were saloons and gun fights in the street. I have so many pictures. If we didn't camp out went to the other side Soco mountain and stayed there. I truly love the Smokey mountains. I feel such awareness of the Indian history and nature. If we stay in Bryson City we still go back to Maggie's Valley. Of course we love to go on up thru the Smokies to Tennessee. Such a beautiful place.
Thanks so much for sharing Georgia!
appreciate video, will be viewing others as well !
as side note, we (me/wife of 50 years in dec. 2021) would attend & i would participate in the maggie valley "moonlight road race" (paraphased)
believe was as always late aug 2000, my wife had the big hair & lots of make up ! she was miss identified as "tammy faye" bakker ! she was followed & photos taken & finally was mobbed. she could not even interject a word in she was not "tammy faye" was great moment !
Our pleasure John. Wow, sounds like a lot of folks enjoyed seeing her.
That did look interesting but I never been in North Carolina as I live in Elgin, Albert County, New Brunswick, Canada and I love travelling on TH-cam as I am a senoir age 72 with bad knees so I just home and travel on youtube. Thanks I loved it. God Bless you two too!
Thanks so much for sharing Jude. God bless!!
The Carpet Bagger mentioned someone possibly doing something with Ghost Town but nothing yet... I've never been there byt I remember the commercials from back in the 80s. It's sad those old places cannot make it anymore... Good video
Thanks so much for the comment and watching!
We went to Ghost town probably sometime around 1979. I had heard that someone was fixing it up.🤷♀️
It's up in the air as if it will ever return.
Everything closed down. Most of time
When I was 15 I had my first tax paying job working at ghost town. For a 15 year old I thought I was high cotton, I was making $2 hr....lmao
Awesome!
I do remember going there as a child and riding the sky-lift. Got Patty Petersons autograph. She played the youngest daughter on the Donna Reed show. Good memories. It would have been in mid 60’s.
Interesting bit of history, Donnie! Thanks for sharing with us!
Some of these old places I have pics of me in front of when I was a child .. Some w my Parents who have both passed away. I have been able to watch this and show my own babies places my Parents took me when I was the oldest age.. He was amazed. My children never got to meet my parents, they are 10, 3 and 1.. So the 2 oldest got to see things I experienced w my mom and dad and what adventures they took me on. Including ghost town.. The chair lift.. Oh my and I have pics of me on those horses .. Oh my heart!! What a precious walk down memory lane.
Awe...thank you for sharing with us we love it.
Oh my gosh Ely's Mill shirt! I have the same one!.....same color too!......Karen that's a very pretty top you are wearing
Thank you so much Susan!
I had my first Sarasparilla at the Ghost Town Saloon around 1970? Rode the swing ride that went out beyond the mountain. Cable car up and chair lift down. Such good times.
Great memories!
