In
the early 1960s, seven visionaries had a plan to develop this beautiful mountain. Taking the lead from Indian lore where wind blows like the devil, and recognizing its original seven developers, the name Seven Devils was born. You can still find Indian arrowheads at Seven Devils, traces of the history of this sacred space. Settled in the early 1700s by a few pioneering families who farmed Mast Mountain at the lower end of the mountain and raised cattle at the upper end known as Valley Creek. Seven Devils is surrounded by the great peaks of the Southern Appalachians and Blue Ridge Mountains, the Town of Seven Devils-- with elevations reaching 5,200 feet and situated in both Avery and Watauga Counties-- is in the midst of it all. Seven Devils is just a few minutes from Boone, Blowing Rock, Banner Elk, and Valle Cruces and Grandfather Mountain. Its small town atmosphere, combined with convenient
location, is some of its appeal.
