Front of Biltmore Estate building.

Biltmore Estate is one of North Carolina’s most notable tourist attractions. Nestled in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, it’s an unforgettable experience.

The Biltmore House is a French Renaissance chateau that can only be described as breathtaking. The house was opened in 1895 serving as the country house for George Vanderbilt, grandson of railroad tycoon Cornelius Vanderbilt.

It was opened to the public in 1930 and has since grown to house one-of-a-kind gardens, a celebrated winery, and exceptional lodging. Any time of year is ideal to visit, as each season offers its own unique activities.
