On Wednesday we decided we would travel 90 minutes to Asheville, NC and visit the Biltmore Estate. Neither Spencer nor I had ever been there and were very curious at what we might find. Check out our pictures:
Spencer and I learned so much about Biltmore. It was constructed in only six years. George and Edith Vanderbilt were the owners. It is still family owned. The estate now has a winery which is located on the old dairy farm. There is also an inn where you can stay for a weekend. Spencer and I plan to visit one weekend and take advantage of everything Biltmore has to offer.
We spent our day touring the house. We were able to view 67 of the 250 rooms. The house has a total of 63 or 64 fireplaces. Once we finished our tour which took about 2 and a half hours, we then toured the winery and enjoyed a late lunch at the bistro. This day trip was definitely the highlight of our trip. It was WONDERFUL!!!
Stay posted for our hike to Grotto Falls!
