Must see near Asheville North Carolina

Grove Park Inn is another place to see. It is a magnificent resort and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The fireplaces in the main room are large enough to hold a car and the views of the Blue Ridge Mountains are beautiful.  Many famous people have stayed here including Harvey Firestone, Thomas A. Edison and Henry Ford in 1918.

Another good excursion is to the Biltmore Estate.  Built in 1895, this 8,000 acre property is still family-owned today.  It is much more than just the mansion above with gardens, restaurants and a winery.  Plan on spending the day here and enjoy an Asheville landmark.
If you have the opportunity stay for Shindig on the Green in downtown Asheville.  Since 1967, this mountain tradition features a variety of performances by Bluegrass and Old-Time String Bands, Clog Dancers and Fiddle players.  Bring a chair, get some BBQ and enjoy an evening of southern hospitality.
