Bucking The Real Estate Trend-Waynesville and Maggie Valley Real Estate

Cataloochee Ski Area in Maggie Valley Opens Earlier Than Ever Before!

The early snow in Haywood County yesterday (October 28th) is breaking records! Our Cataloochee Ski Area is open now, which is the earliest it has even been open for skiing!

"Cataloochee opened the season with an 8- to 12 inch base on two beginner slopes yesterday at 1 p.m., making it one of only three open ski areas in the country. The Maggie Valley ski area is second only to Loveland and Arapahoe Basin Ski Areas, both of which opened in Colorado on Oct. 14 and 15 respectively."  (Read the rest of the local story here .)

Cataloochee Ski Area pre-season hours are: Monday through Friday from 1 to 10 p.m., and from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Saturdays. Thanksgiving Day the Ski Area will be closed, but it will open during holiday hours the following weekend.  Holiday hours and rates will apply November 28 through 30. Hours for the regular season begin Dec. 15, with a few exceptions for special holidays.

Please visit the Cataloochee Ski Area website for lift ticket rates, snow reports , and updates on the operating hours before traveling! You may call the Cataloochee Ski Area office at 828-926-0285.
