All the details
Denise and I are planning a three-day spring trip to Asheville, North Carolina, with a full day at Biltmore. We'll all ride together in two passenger vans. Before we book the hotel, the Biltmore tickets and the vans, we want to see who would like to go.
This is an interest list. Adding your name doesn't commit you to anything, and there's nothing to pay now.
THE DATES: Monday, April 12 to Wednesday, April 14, 2027 (2 nights)
THE PLAN WE'RE LOOKING AT:
- Day 1: We leave the Chattanooga area in the morning, stop at Buc-ee's in Sevierville, then spend the early afternoon at the North Carolina Arboretum before we check in to our hotel.
- Day 2: Biltmore! We'll tour Biltmore House and the gardens, have lunch together at the Stable Café, and have time to explore Biltmore Village.
- Day 3: A scenic drive home through the mountains, with a stop for lunch on the way.
ESTIMATED PRICE: about $605 per person, sharing a room. That includes:
- Your seat in the van, there and back and around Asheville
- 2 nights at a hotel in the Biltmore Village area, sharing a room with two queen beds
- Hot breakfast both mornings
- Your Biltmore House and Gardens ticket
- Lunch at the Stable Café at Biltmore
- Snacks and parking
Your other lunches and dinners are on your own. Traveling on your own and want a room to yourself? Tell us in the note when you add your name, and we'll price it for you.
LIMITED TO 28 SEATS.
GOOD TO KNOW:
- Space in the vans is tight, so everyone brings one soft bag or backpack that fits under a seat.
- Biltmore means a lot of walking, so bring comfortable shoes.
HOW IT WORKS:
- If at least 22 of us sign up by Friday, January 15, 2027, we'll book the hotel, the Biltmore tickets and the vans, then send everyone on this list the final price and how to pay.
- If not enough of us sign up, we won't book it, and nobody owes anything.
