I have always loved Asheville and especially Biltmore. It's in Western NC and a true hidden gem. I talk to so many people in Atlanta who have never gone. When I was growing up in Florida it was a treat to come here and to the beautiful mountains, it's such a beautiful part of the Country. We visited the House and grounds, barn and farm, gardens, winery (don't let the NC part fool you, they staff a French master winemaker here!), the Biltmore Village and also the famous most fancy McDonalds from the Travel Channel (pic with piano). It's a very cool, artsy town. I also had a ghost encounter. We were on one of the upper floors of Biltmore House and the only people up there on our tour. All of a sudden a window shut right in front of us all by itself! They told me they have "incidents" by the Vanderbilts and servants all the time. The Festival of Flowers is gorgeous and goes through May. Here are my pics:
