Stay At The Marriott Renaissance Asheville Hotel When You Visit Biltmore Estate
Completed by its owner, George Washington Vanderbilt, in time to accommodate its first guests for Christmas 1895, Biltmore House itself is huge limestone mansion different from any other residence in the U.S. Designed by Richard Morris Hunt, the late nineteenth century's most renowned architect; it is styled after a French Renaissance Château in France's Loire Valley.
The Biltmore House is most recognized for its position as America's largest home. It is certainly that, with four acres under one roof and 250 rooms, 65 fireplaces, an indoor pool, and bowling alley. However, it is what the house contains that is most remarkable. It is decorated with thousands of original furnishings, including original art from masters such as Renoir, magnificent 16th-century tapestries, more than 40 bronze sculptures, Napoleon's chess set, and a library with 10,000 volumes. Biltmore House has room after room of art, history, and luxury, including a banquet hall with a 70-foot ceiling.
Biltmore Estate includes 8, 000 acres of land which, in addition to the Biltmore House and surrounding gardens, includes forest lands that were first managed by Gifford Pinchot, the father of modern forestry in the U.S. and the first Chief of the U.S. forest Service. The adjoining Pisgah National Forest was formed from the sale of 86, 700 acres from the original lands of the Biltmore estate. Along with the Biltmore house and estate comes the most visited winery in America. At the winery, enjoy a self-guided "behind the scenes" tour and sample Biltmore Estate wines in the Tasting Room. Browse the Wine Shop.
