Grove Park Inn and Country Club
Asheville, North Carolina
The scenery of the Blue Ridge Mountains have attracted many families to Asheville. This beautiful, historic, family-friendly resort is located near all of Asheville's attractions, and a short drive from the Great Smoky Mountains as well. The guest list at this inn includes many famous people, such as Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, Woodrow Wilson, and President and Mrs. Franklin Roosevelt. Our kids were particularly fascinated by the fireplaces -- they are so huge that an adult (or several!) could easily walk into them.
Oktoberfest is a blast in autumn. Other celebrations include Halloween and Thanksgiving.
Here at the Inn, you can play golf, tennis, swim indoor pools, and work out at the indoor Sports Center. In the nearby mountains, you can go horseback riding, fishing, or mountain biking. Beautiful mountain lakes for swimming, fishing and boating, are not too far away. The historic Biltmore Estate is only 8 miles from the Inn.
