Mountain Top started in 1973 with just a few vendors, a hot dog stand, and a couple of loyal folks who still can be found on the property today. Owner Melton "Cowboy" can always be seen driving his golf cart on Sunday morning mingling with the crowd,

"People are what makes this place what it is, Without them we wouldn't be here"

-Cowboy

 And it shows. Visitors have been coming to Mountain Top for 50 years and from all 50 states just to experience one of the last "true" southern flea markets left in America.
