If you remember we live near Asheville, and I have been to the house many times, but not since the 1980s. I always loved the Christmas decor and was surprised to see another blogger post that she thought the Christmas decor was "dated" and shabby. I was shocked because I know they plan each year's decor well in advance and put a lot of thought, planning and execution into each year's theme. I think this year was "The Gilded Age," so expected that it would be fabulous again. Anyway, I need to take my husband there as he has never seen it and hate we missed the Christmas season. Maybe next year. Glad you all enjoyed it, though!! And the weather has sure been crazy here:-)Anita Diazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10745164844001794566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271182300590181890.post-4596038607557757532016-01-09T11:07:55.679-05:002016-01-09T11:07:55.679-05:00Wow wow wow!

So glad they changed the tickets for you graciously. Looking forward to seeing the photos from your meal, too. Katie and I were able to visit, a first for both of us, on our road trip from Seattle to Jacksonville N.C. back in 2014. I enjoyed reading all the history you provided. ellen bhttp://happywonderer.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271182300590181890.post-44668542312409433192016-01-09T10:53:14.402-05:002016-01-09T10:53:14.402-05:00What a wonderful outing for the two of you.

The photos are wonderful. Its been a few years since we visited there, but someone gave us a pass for a year so we were able to visit in each season, and saw the wonderful Christmas decor. It's quite an amazing place and your post makes me want to go again! podsohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14880888514207597761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271182300590181890.post-87478498226709006282016-01-09T09:17:54.843-05:002016-01-09T09:17:54.843-05:00Now I recognize where you went, Denise!

It must've been so impressive to have the candlelight tour. We ate on the property, too, in a cute pub-like restaurant, but I can't remember the name. I believe it was named after their dog. That was a wonderful trip for us. kitty@ Kitty's Kozy Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02803962513834013589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271182300590181890.post-51786254705593898922016-01-08T23:07:19.645-05:002016-01-08T23:07:19.645-05:00It's been a very long time since I visited the...It's been a very long time since I visited the Biltmore, about 23 years ago. It was gorgeous, and I remember that my favorite room was the library. A candlelight tour would be an amazing event. What beautiful photos! I'm glad it was such a great experience for you. I hope to get back there someday, and I suspect that anytime of year is quite beautiful in Asheville.

I can't imagine having a home so large that I wouldn't know how many bedrooms there were! (I wouldn't even want to. Sounds labor intensive.) Glad that the staff was accomodating so that you could switch your reservations. There certainly have been some major weather events.

IT was during the day and I know that I would love to tour the evening one.<br />Looking forward to the future post on Biltmore House.
