Biltmore House from the Lagoon, Asheville, NC

i love to go to the biltmore estate the gardens are spectacular as well as the house.i go there every chance i can

It is hard to believe that one family called this house home! That they celebrated holidays, had family dinners, talked about ordinary things at those tables and slept in those beds. That they invited friends to stay, sometimes for months at a time, and enjoyed their company. It is sad that the Mr. Vanderbilt only lived a short time. But his family still finds time to come to the house and have Christmas parties for the employees, just as the family did so many years ago. I pray that the Cecils will be able to keep the house in the family for generations to come!

Attractive castle. Is it your second home? ;) Cheers, Christian

Yes, the other one is for sale! I wish the other one would hurry up and sale. I'm tired of mowing the lawn!

Yes, i recall - there was a B&B we did not choose last year for our stay...

Dear Kathy

Here in good old Germany would be a castle or mansion.

Class view of the building. Wunderbar

Danke, Peter! This is one of the few castles in America. It was built by George Vanderbilt.
