More Less. Helpful Helpful. I could fully imagine the life of those who lived, visited, or worked there! It is absolutely amazing! George and Edith were lovely people who obviously were visionaries! I loved especially, that they cared for their staff so well.
Had a wonderful visit, the Biltmore was very interesting to tour, the gardens were beautiful, my favorite part was the Winery and the Lunch was better than expected!! The self guided tour was as expected and of good quality. Lunch was provided by the Stable Cafe and was not quality in any regard. Food was of marginal quality; entree was bland and the desert was dry and unappealing.
No problems with the service which was excellent. Biltmore Estate is on any must do list when visiting Asheville.

Melodious TravelingMom offers 6 tips on how to do Biltmore Estate like a Vanderbilt to maximize your Biltmore experience.
Showing off the best of Asheville to our California friends, it was a no brainer: we had to take them to Biltmore. After all, Biltmore Estate is the largest private residence in America and registered as a National Historic Landmark. But I was suddenly panicked. Well, that may be a tad unrealistic, but these 6 Tips we used will hopefully maximize how guests approach their Biltmore Estate vacation.
Part of being a Vanderbilt is knowing all about the family tree and the deep traditions and history of the grounds. An audio tour accomplished that for our party of 4. Having friends with us who had never been to Biltmore, we decided the minute audio tour was the way to go! We toured all three floors and the basement in under 2 hours and learned more about the history of Biltmore House than I had on any prior visit.
For instance, my favorite story shared on the audio guide was about a young servant who was so stunned by the grandeur of the banquet hall that she dropped the tray of china she held. Instead of freaking out, George Vanderbilt actually helped her clean up the broken pieces. What a brilliant idea to use storytelling in informing guests about the family and the history of the home.
Another awe-inspiring moment happens in the tapestry gallery. I was amazed when the audio guide said the tapestries took 5 years to design and plan — and 5 years to weave them. Biltmore Estate goes way beyond the Biltmore House itself. The property spans over 8, acres, including brilliant gardens which were designed by landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted. Although I have a black thumb, even I appreciated the lushness and beauty of the grounds. As we strolled the garden paths, I imagined the footsteps of those who came before me and felt a deep connection to the land.
As we passed from the Italian Garden, I envisioned guests playing croquet and tennis; the Rose Garden, where over 40 varieties of roses bloom; and the Conservatory, which once provided flowers and plants for Biltmore House like the ever-present orchids, ferns, and palms. The genius behind the design cannot be overlooked because it envelops you.
