Notable Quotes
"Inn on Biltmore Estate: On 8,000 acres adjacent to Biltmore House, George Vanderbilt's 19th-century chateau. Competitive Edge: Next best thing to a European vacation (formal gardens, on-site winery). Don't Miss: The off-road Land Rover driving school."
Travel + Leisure, 2006
"Some grounds! 8,000 acres of field and stream surround George Vanderbilt's 1895 Biltmore mansion. Kid magnet: the on-site River Bend Farm, which re-creates rural life in the 1890's."
Travel + Leisure, 2007

"Sip wine and watch the sun set behind the Blue Ridge Mountains from a rocker on the porch of this fieldstone and stucco hotel, three hours from Charlotte. Gracious staff combines Southern hospitality with fine service. Floral rooms recall English and French manors. The main dining room serves regional cuisine around a fireplace; try the perfectly cooked trout."
Condé Nast Traveler 2006
