      I have been here only three times, once during the Christmas season, and it never ceases to awe and amaze me. To think that New York City was chalk full of mansions just like this, albeit with a much smaller footprint. The history we have lost is irreplaceable, which makes saving this beautiful estate an absolute must.

    I grew up going to Biltmore with my Sunday school group, my girl scout troop, and with my friends. This was the 1960s.
    As a teenager, a girlfriend and I would ride our horses by sneaking on to the back side of the Biltmore Estate...miles and miles of trails to ride. Aaah, such wonderful memories.
    Viewing this clip I see so much has changed in the last 52 years.
    I was raised right there in South Buncombe County.

    Nice job! Although I wish the volume of the music was lower, it's otherwise very well done, and I appreciate that music is the only sound.
    Biltmore allows non-flash photography for personal use. I have toured and photographed it many times. I also went before photos were allowed and refused to go again until they allowed photography because I forgit most of what I had seen after about 3 days! Having images to remind me of what I saw has increased my enjoyment immensely and made me want to return. The floral arrangements change with the seasons and lighting is different, etc.., so no visit is exactly the same as another. Now, it feels like home because I know it more intimately.

    Can you imagine the horse and carriages pulling up to the home at Christmas? Ladies with their big hats and long dresses with tiny waists? The men in their top hats and long tailed coats, mingling around the home with small talk then dinner at this grand estate! It's along way to nowadays, people sitting around in their pajamas all day and watching football all day.
    I hope this home/museum wasnt damaged in all the flooding. I've read many nasty comments about people who say they dont care if it was or not. I reminded them that this estate employs hundreds of people from the towns below, that were washed away. This estate is their livelyhood, and people shouldbt wish ill will toward Biltmore, but thank the Good Lord that it is still here and at least they have a job to come back to. Biltmore Village was flooded heavily and no telling what it will cost to replace everything and also peoples homes. I wish the best and will pray for everyone affected by the hurricane.

    I had visited the Biltmore twice several years ago. At that time you could park in the upper area where the gates are. We weren't allowed to see any of the servants quarters. I have the book on the house and upon reading it I found out things that if I had known I would have paid more attention. But it's hard to observe everything in a magnificient house of that size.

    I have gone to Biltmore in the past many times at Christmas. The Christmas decorations were sparse, not like in years past. Did not see even one nativity scene. Has Biltmore gone WOKE? Go WOKE, go BROKE. Management has changed hands for sure. Nobody I know can afford to visit anymore with the price of admission. Jesus is the reason for the season. Keep Christ in Christmas. Noticed how small the crowds were. Not like in years past. Waiting in line to get in. This is very sad. Gouging people on admission will not make money in this economy. Rethink your charges. And, I have not seen a single Angel either?
