Boasting 4 acres of floor area, 250 rooms, 34 bedrooms, 43 bathrooms, and 65 fireplaces, your family is sure to have a wonderful time visiting the Biltmore Estate.

The Biltmore Estate is a unique, historic home that claims the title of being the largest private residence in the United States.

If you plan to visit the Biltmore in the future, there are several pieces of advice you need to heed before going. Take a look at the following:

Allow a LOT of time. With the expanse of the mansion/estate, you don't want to miss any of the important things, so try to arrive early and stay late. It would also be helpful to look at some of the preplanned itineraries that have been set up by previous visitors and the Biltmore staff.
Buy advance tickets. Tickets are available for purchase online or by calling 1-800-411-3812.
Visit Sunday through Friday. A typical guest will experience more visitor traffic on Saturdays than they will on Monday through Friday.
Bring a car. Some of the estate venues are miles apart so you will need to drive.
Dress comfortably. The mountain weather is subject to change at any time, so be sure to dress in layers. Also be sure to wear tennis shoes and a light jacket.
